or BON-hommes, a fort of hermits of St Augustine, founded by F. de Paula. They were brought over into England in 1283, by Edmund earl of Cornwall, and settled at Ashurug in Bucks, besides which they had only one house more at Edgindon in Wilshire. They followed the rule of St Austin, and wore a blue habit. The name is said to have arisen from Louis XI. of France who used to call F. de Paula, prior of the order, Le bon homme. Till then they had been called the Minimi, or the order of Grammont. See ALBIGENSES.
