The author makes the following additional points, which do not undermine the argument and conclusions, but nevertheless should be corrected.On page I provide a table with a hand analysis of the manuscript in question (Bibliothek der Erzabtei St Peter, Salzburg, b.IX. ), where I state that documents relating to the struggle against the Ottoman Turks and the Hussites are all written by the same hand.This is also suggested in the most recent catalogue description made by Gerold Hayer.In fact, the hand of the formula of absolution for those involved in the struggle against the Hussites led by King George Podebrad, c. (v), differs from surrounding texts (letters a and g and abbreviation for -r / -er).Then, on fos r-r letters b, h, l, have loops unlike in preceding texts.We can therefore probably identify at least three similar, but different hands: r-r, v, and r-r.Even if the entries were made by the same person, they were not made simultaneously.I also suggest that a voluminous note, with a list of people who took the cross in against the Ottomans attacking Belgrade, the end of which is placed on the top of fo.v before the Hussite-related text (see page for details on these notes), was made by Georg Liebenknecht, abbot of Michaelbeuern, after all texts on fos - had been entered.However, the Hussite-related text is placed lower than the usual starting point for text columns in this part of the manuscript, and it may be that it was later than Abbot Georg's note and could even date to after his death in .It could perhaps note participants in the crusade after the event
