To the collectors of customs in the port of Kyngeston upon Hull. Order
to pay to Tidemannus de Lymbergh 50l. for Michaelmas and Easter terms
last, as the king granted to Matthew Canaceon, his merchant, 50l. to be
received yearly of the customs in the port of London, and on 15 February
last at the suit of Matthew, who was bound to John de Wolde and

To the sheriff of Kent. Order to cause 14 tuns 53 pipes of wine arrested
by him to be delivered by indenture to William Clapitus for the king's use,
without delay, to do therewith as shall be enjoined upon him, and to take
an inquisition into whose hands the residue of that wine came and to cause
it to be arrested and kept safely until further order, as on learning that a
certain ship coming to London laden with 240 pipes of the king's wine,
from Gascony, had been broken by chance near the isle of Thanet and that
the wine, dispersed at divers places along the coast of that island and at
other places, had been found and carried away by the men of those parts,
the king ordered the sheriff to take an inquisition upon the matter and to
cause all the said wine found by him to be arrested and kept safely until
further order, and the sheriff returned that he had arrested 14 tuns 53
pipes of that wine in divers places. |

The Tower. |
To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to inspect the rolls
and memoranda of the exchequer, and if they find that John de Hampton
held the manor of Worthy Mortymer, co. Southampton, of the king's
demise and the manor of Bremmesgrave, co. Worcester, and the bailiwick
thereof do not exceed the value of 100l., then to permit the executors of the
will of William de Monte Acuto to hold the said manor of Bremmesgrave
and bailiwick until Roger son and heir of Edmund de Mortuo Mari shall
come of age, for the maintenance of that heir, superseding the demand
made upon them for the issues of the said manors and bailiwick, as on
3 June in the 10th year of the reign, by a fine of 1,000 marks which
William made with the king, the king granted to him the marriage
of Roger son and heir of Edmund de Mortuo Mari, tenant-in-chief, a
minor in the king's wardship, and also by the said fine and in consideration
of William's expenses for the maintenance of that heir, he granted to him
the custody of the said manor and bailiwick, which Margaret late the wife
of Edmund de Mortuo Mari, grandfather of the said heir, held for life of
that inheritance and which were in the king's hands by reason of the heir's
minority, to hold until the heir should come of age, so that if the manors
exceeded the value of 100l. yearly by extent thereof, then William should
answer yearly at the exchequer for the surplus, and 100l. of the extent
should be allowed to William yearly, and now the said executors have shown
the king that although the manor of Worthy has been in John's custody
for all the said time and before, and did not come into their hands, yet
the treasurer and barons distrain them to answer for the issues of the
manors and bailiwick, wherefore they have besought the king to provide a
remedy. By C. |
