has lately made prior of Priterwell, who has done fealty, by any exactions
on account of the late voidance of the priory, and to restore to him
anything that he may have levied for the king's use, as it was found by
inquisition taken by the said escheator by order of the late king that the
escheator was wont, upon such voidance of the said priory, to go thither
and take seisin in the king's name, and to depute a porter at the gate
thereof for the indemnity of the convent, and that the escheator and
porter left without taking any issues for the king's use immediately upon
the prior elect producing the king's letters of admission; and it was
found, by inspection of the rolls of the exchequer, that nothing was
accounted for to the king for any issues of the same priory upon any
voidance; wherefore the late king ordered the said escheator not to
molest John de Monte Martini, then prior, by reason of the voidance of the
same, nor to exact any issues for the king's use. |
