To John de Louthre, escheator in cos. York, Northumberland, Cumberland, and Westmorland. Order not to intermeddle further with a messuage
and 6 acres of land in Wodehous, restoring the issues, as it was lately found
by an inquisition taken by that escheator that William de Wodehous
held the said messuage and land in his demesne as of fee at his death, of
the manor of Skipton, in the late king's hand by the death of Roger de
Clyfford, tenant in chief of the late king, by homage and fealty, and that
the said messuage and lands came into the king's hands as a custody by
reason of the said manor, and that Thomas de Wodehous, brother of William,
was his next heir and of full age, and because the king has taken the homage
of Robert de Clyfford, brother and heir of Roger, for all the lands which
his brother held of the late king in chief, the king ordered that escheator
not to intermeddle further with the said messauge and land, and afterwards
for certain causes the king ordered that escheator to retain the said messuage
and land in the king's hands and to cause it to be safely kept until further
orders. |

To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to cause Thomas
de Buketon to be discharged and released of the issues of the manor of
Tychemersh, co. Northampton, from Michaelmas last, as on 28 January
last the king granted to John son of John Lovel, tenant in chief, the custody
of the said manor, which belonged to John, and which was in the king's
hands by reason of the minority of the said John, son and heir of the same
John, to have with all the issues, from Michaelmas last until the heir should
come of age, rendering therefrom 40l. yearly to the exchequer, and the king
ordered Thomas de Buketon, to whom he had formerly granted the said
manor to hold under a certain form, to deliver the manor and its issues to
the said John son of John. |

To the sheriff of Warwick and Leicester. Order to pay to Giles de Bello
Campo 20l. for Michaelmas term last out of the issues of his bailiwick, in
accordance with the late king's grant to Giles of 40l. yearly from the issues
of those counties, which grant the king has confirmed. |

To the men of the town of Weston. Order to restore to Robert de
Milverton, clerk, his lands, goods, and chattels which had been taken into
the king's hands on his being summoned before William de Sutton, coroner
of co. Warwick for receiving William Belton and other robbers knowing
them to be such, with 4 horses of the price of 10 marks, feloniously stolen
from the parson of Whitewyk church, co. Leicester, by the said William de
Belton, and indicted before Thomas de Bello Campo, earl of Warwick, and
his fellows, justices of oyer and terminer in co. Warwick, for having feloniously stolen from Richard de Milverton, chaplain, four stones of wool
of the price of 24s., as the said Robert purged his innocence before A.
bishop of Worcester, ordinary of the place, to whom he was delivered
by the justices according to the privilege of the clergy, as Adam de
Herwynton, vicar general of the said bishop, has informed the king, wherefore the king ordered the sheriff of Warwick to restore to Robert, his lands,
goods and chattels or to show reason why he would or could not execute
the said order, and that sheriff informed the king that he could not execute
that order because all the goods and chattels which Robert had in that
bailiwick, on the day on which he was delivered to the bishop of Worcester,
were delivered to the said men by the justices, for a reasonable price, to
answer for them to the king at will. |
