Enrolment of deed of Arnald de Duro Forti, witnessing that whereas he
suggested to the king that the king was indebted to him in 2,000l. sterling
and in a greater sum of the late king's time and of the present king's time,
to wit for the time when Arnald was in their service with men-at-arms in
the duchy of Aquitaine, and he besought the king to cause 1,300l. sterling to
be paid to him for the discharge of certain debts in the city of London and
for the expedition of certain of his affairs, although he had not the bills and
other memoranda proving the said sum to be owing to him with him in
England, and the king caused the 1,300l. to be paid to him, Arnald hereby
acquits the king of 1,300l. in part payment of the aforesaid debt, promising
to restore the said bills and memoranda to the constable of Bordeaux before

the said 1,300l. from Arnald's goods in the duchy and in the land of the
Agénois. For greater security Arnald has caused this writing to be sealed

To the sheriff of Worcester. Whereas the king, in accordance with the
agreement in parliament in the first year of his reign for the restitution to
those who were of the quarrel of Thomas, earl of Lancaster, of their lands,
goods and chattels, ordered the sheriff of that county to restore to John
Wyard all his lands, goods, and chattels which had been taken into the late
king's hands by reason of the quarrel aforesaid, and the king now learns from
the complaint of William de Walkyngton that, although John de Dufford had
satisfied John Wyard, by pretext of the agreement aforesaid, for certain
goods and chattels of John Wyard found at the time of the said quarrel in the
manor of Bradecote, which lately belonged to John Wyard, which goods and
chattels were occupied by John de Dufford, the sheriff nevertheless distrains
William by summons of the exchequer in the said manor, which he holds of
his purchase, for 20 marks in which John de Dufford made fine before
Hervey de Staunton and his fellows, late justices to hold pleas before the
king, for the said goods and chattels of John Wyard found in that manor,
to William's damage, contrary to the form of the agreement aforesaid, whereupon the king ordered the treasurer and barons to search the rolls and
memoranda of Hervey in the exchequer concerning such fines, and if they
found that the said fine was made for John Wyard's goods as aforesaid, to
cause to be done further for William's discharge what ought to be done
according to the form of the agreement aforesaid: the king therefore orders
the sheriff to supersede the demand upon William for the said 20 marks
upon his finding security to answer to the king for it at the exchequer at
the quinzaine of Easter next, unless he can then shew that he ought to be
discharged thereof. |

church of Tichemerssh, has shewn the king that Walter de Abyham impleads
him and others before the king for a trespass against him, and that although
he is prepared to answer to Walter for the said trespass, if there be one, he
is put in exigent by the sheriff to be outlawed in the county [court] because
the sheriff returned before the king that Edmund was not found in his
bailiwick, wherefore Edmund has besought the king to provide for his
indemnity: the king therefore orders the sheriff to supersede the exigent if
Edmund render himself to prison and afterwards find mainpernors to have
him before the king, on the day when the writ of exigent is returnable, to
answer to Walter. |
