To the sheriff of Devon. Whereas the king learns by inquisition taken
by the sheriff and Master William de Kilkenny, the king's clerk, that a
ship belonging to William le Keu, Philip Rurde and Roger Beynyn,
merchants of Exeter, laden with wines, was wrecked on the sea coast
between Dertemuth and Exemuth by tempest (maris intemperiem), and ten
tuns of the wine were thrown upon the land of Geoffrey de Alba Marlia at
Wodebury and Luneston, in the sheriff's bailiwick, and also that the men
in the ship at the time of the wreck escaped alive, and that the wine
came to the hands of the said Geoffrey and of Adam Turnehond and
Robert Tubba, and that they are detained by them from the said
merchants, although the latter proved before the sheriff and Master
William, in the presence of Geoffrey, Adam and Robert, that the wine
was theirs, and that each tun was worth 4 marks when it came to the
hands of Geoffrey, Adam and Robert: the king orders the sheriff to
distrain Geoffrey, Adam and Robert without delay to satisfy the merchants
for the aforesaid ten tuns of wine or for the price of them, so that the
king may not hear renewed complaint for lack of justice, taking from
the merchants security to answer for the wine if anyone claim right in it
hereafter. |

of land in Fitelton at a fee ferm rent, rendering therefor to the king
12l. yearly for all service, and that Richard, his son, is his nearest heir
and is aged ten weeks, and it did not appear to the king by the inquisition
that Simon held of him elsewhere by reason whereof the wardship of his
lands could or ought to pertain to the king, and the king therefore ordered
the escheator to deliver to Alice, late the wife of Simon, the custody of
the two carucates which the escheator took into the king's hands by
reason of Simon's death, as nearest [friend] of the heir, saving the right
of others; and the escheator has done nothing in this matter, as the king
learns: the king orders him to deliver the custody of the two carucates
to Alice without delay, in accordance with his previous order, together
with the issues received thence by him in the meantime, or to signify to
the king why he would not or could not execute his other order. He is

tenth of the realm granted in aid of the Holy Land, and the king bound
himself by his letters patent to the abbot and convent and their

they have satisfied the collectors of the tenth appointed by the pope for
that sum, and they have besought the king to cause this sum to be
allowed to them in the debts due from them to the exchequer; the king
orders the treasurer and barons, if they ascertain that the abbot and
