وفي يوم الأربعاء غده: استدعى قاضي القضاة شمس الدين محمد الهروي شهود القاهرة ومصر،
الجالسين بالحوانيت للتكسب بتحمل الشهادة وأدائها ليعرضوا عليه، فأوقفهم بين يديه، طائفة بعد
أخرى، وأقرهم على ما هم عليه، ولم يستنب سوى عشرة، وكان قاضي القضاة جلال الدين قد انصرف
ونوابه أربعة عشر، ثم زاد الهروي بعد ذلك في عدة النواب في الحكم حتى بلغوا نحو العشرين،
