To the taxers and collectors of the tenth and fifteenth in the East Riding
in co. York. Order to levy the said fifteenth from the goods and chattels
of the archibishop of York and from the other goods and chattels of the
community of the East Riding, and to answer to the king therefor, as the
king granted and gave licence to Peter, archbishop of Rouen, and to the
dean and chapter of Rouen church, that they might enfeoff William de
Melton, archbishop of York, with their manor of Killum in that county
which they held of the king in chief in frank almoin by the grant of the
king's progenitors, as was found by an inquisition taken by John de
Louthre, late escheator in that county and in cos. Cumberland, Northumberland and Westmorland, to hold of the king by the service of rendering
to the king 13s. 4d. yearly by the hands of the sheriffs of co. York for the
time being; and the king granted that the archbishop of York should
receive the said manor from the said archbishop, dean and chapter, and hold
it of the king, who likewise gave a special licence, as is fully contained in the
letters patent; and it fully appears by the part of a fine levied thereupon
in the king's court on the octaves of Midsummer last, before William de
Herle and his fellows, justices of the Bench, between the said archbishop,
dean and chapter and the archbishop of York, in chancery, that the said
archbishop, dean and chapter, acknowledged that the manor belonged of
right to the archbishop of York, and rendered it to him in the same court,
informing the king that the goods and chattels issuing from that manor
henceforth are to be taxed with the community of the realm and not with
the clergy, and that the manor and the goods issuing from it ought not to
be charged with such tenths and quotas granted with the clergy of the
realm or imposed upon them, although the archbishop of Rouen and the
dean and chapter and their predecessors were formerly wont to pay the
tenth and other quotas from that manor among the temporalities annexed
to their spiritualities, together with those of the clergy of the realm. |

To the mayor and bailiffs of Kyngeston-upon-Hull. On the part of the
collectors of the custom in the port of that town it has been shown to the
king that certain ships called 'la Mariole' of Hull, 'la Michel,' 'la
Godeyer' and 'la Blythe,' of which John de Shepay, John Vanne, John
Colyn and Roger Swerd are masters, before the king's writ for arresting
all ships in that port of 40 tuns burthen and more, so that they may be
ready to set out in the king's service when it shall be ordained by the king
and his council, which ships were loaded with the wool of divers merchants,
and certain other ships called 'la Mariole,' 'la Godeale' and 'la Laurence,'
of which Thomas de Fisshelak, William de Watton and Richard de Byrkyn
are masters, were then being charged with such wool, to be taken to
Flanders, the custom on the said wool not having been paid, and the said
ships, the greatest of which is said not to exceed 60 tuns burthen, have been
arrested by the mayor and bailiffs by reason of the said order, and the king,
expecting to lose the custom on the wool in those ships if the ships are
prevented from crossing to the said parts, or that payment thereof will
be deferred for a long time, orders the mayor and bailiffs to take security
from each of the owners or masters of the ships that they will return
to that port without delay, so that they may be ready to set out in the
king's service according to the form of the previous order, and then to
permit those ships to cross to Flanders without hindance, notwithstanding

To the bailiffs of Grimsby. Whereas the king lately ordered them
to cause all ships of more than 40 tuns of wine burthen in that port
to be detained there, and to cause all owners of such ships which were
then away from (extra) that port to be warned that they should cause
those ships to return to that port with all possible speed, and all ships
of more than the said burthen to be prepared without delay, and furnished with double equipment (eskippamento) and other things necessary
for war, so that they should be ready to set out with the king on his
service for the defence of the kingdom against the Scots, as it might
be ordained by the king and his council, and now the king has learned
that the bailiffs have arrested in that port a certain ship of John Camm of
Grymesby, of the burthen of 45 tuns of wine, loaded with divers victuals
for the maintenance of the king and his lieges in Scotland, to be taken
to the north, the king therefore orders the bailiffs that if the ship is
not of more than the said burthen, and if John shall find sufficient
security that he will take the victuals to the king and his lieges to the
said parts, and that when the ship is unloaded he will return to that
port bearing a certificate from the mayor or bailiffs of the town where
the ship was unloaded to the bailiffs of Grymesby, then to dearrest
that ship without delay and allow it to cross to the said parts without
hindrance, notwithstanding the king's said order. By C. |
