By 877 theDanes had occupied London and reached Gloucester and Exeter, but theylost 120 supply ships in a fierce storm off Swanage. In 878 he was forcedto hide in Somerset and it was there arose the legend of the burnedcakes. He renewed the fight and won a famous victory at Edington inWiltshire the same year. After, the Danes agreed that their king,Guthrum, should be baptised and Alfred was godfather. Afterwards Guthrumruled Mercia but acknowledged Alfred as Overlord. The Mercian settlementdeveloped over the next 100 years into the body known as Danelaw. Beforethat, in 879 at Fulham and also near Rochester in 884, other Norse armieslanded. Alfred continued fighting until he was the acknowledged championof the English against the Danes. Alfred was scholarly, a writer,law-maker, pious and also a valiant fighter. Additionally he had a goodknowledge of geography. He was a most able administrator and alsoinstituted educational programmes. He founded monasteries and gave alarge t of his income to charities. His wife was Ealswith. Alfred died onthe 26th October, some say in 901, others 900, but the more generallyaccepted year is 899. He was buried at Winchester.
