[ad. med.L. corrōdium, also -rādium, vars. of corrēdium, earlier conrēdium, f. OF. conrei(d, conroi, mod.F. corroi:—Romanic type *conrēdo: see conrey. Among the numerous other med.L. forms were conregium, -ragium, corrogium, conreium, correium, courreium, also correda, corredum. Those in o, a, were perhaps due to Parisian F. conroi, AF. conrai. The primary sense was ‘preparation, outfit’, hence ‘provision’.]
Provision or allowance for maintenance, aliment; pension.
‘Originally the right of free quarters due from the vassal to the lord on his circuit; but later applied esp. to certain contributions of food, provisions, etc., paid annually by religious houses..Sometimes the contribution might be commuted, and then it would be practically undistinguishable from an annuity or pension’ (C. Plummer Fortescue Notes pp. 337–8). Little in use since the Reformation; the legal antiquaries of the 17th c. dealt with it as an obsolete word, and it is now chiefly a historical term, though surviving as the name of some local charities.
