To the bishop of Clonfert. Mandate as below. The recent petition of the vicar and friars of Ireland, of the order of hermits of St. Augustine, contained that formerly Matthew Omaan, friar of the said order, with a number of friars of the same order, at the instance of Edraundus Stauriton (sic) and Richard Stauriton, donsels, of the diocese of Tuam, with consent of archbishop Maurice and of Henry, rector of the parish church of St. Mary and Holy Cross in the said diocese, entered and with the said friars inhabited, as he still does, celebrating masses and other divine offices, a certain house of Carmelite friars, which for more than thirty years no Carmelite had inhabited. The petition added that the said
Edraundus, whose predecessors and kinsmen had founded the said house for the use and habitation of Carmelite friars, and the said Richard desire that the said Augustinian friars shall in future possess the said house, with its church, bell, cemetery, gardens etc. The pope therefore orders the above bishop, if he find the facts to be so, to grant to the said vicar and friars the necessary licence to receive and retain the said house etc. Sacre religionis. |

On the said day, namely, 28 July 1410, Richard Pyttes, canon of York, chancellor of the archbishop, specially appointed by him commissary in the present cause, sitting as a tribunal in the archbishop's chancery in the said castle, received the letters of commission of the archbishop, Quia nuper nos, addressed to Master Richard Pyttes, canon of York, the archbishop's chancellor, and dated in the archbishop's castle of Cawood, 26 July, 1410, the third year of his translation, setting forth that in course of visitation, in the years 1409 and 1410, of his diocese and of the archdeaconries of York, Estrydyng and Clyveland, and the churches etc. of Houeden and Houedenshire, Aluerton and Aluertonshire, he has learned that the prior and convent and chapter of Durham have held, as above, the parish churches of Northaluerton, Estryngton, Gygleswyk, Bossall, Fisschelake and Rodyngton, and yearly pensions from the following churches, namely from the church of Hemyngburgh 5 marks, from that of Brantymgham 10 marks, from that of Welton 3 marks, from that of Walkyngton 100s., from that of Skypwyth 1 mark, from that of Holtby 25s., from the vicarage of Aluceton (sic) 20l., from the church of Siggeston 10 marks, from that of Rungton 40s., and from that of Narmanton (written Normanton in the commissary's article below) 1 mark; and that he has summoned the said prior and convent and chapter to appear before him or his commissary, for which purpose, being unable to be present himself, he appoints as his commissary the said Master Richard.

Durham, and to the churches of Bossal, Fisselake and Rodyngton, as appropriated to their college at Oxford, and to their portions, tithes and pensions and jurisdictions of Houeden and Houedenshire, Aluerton and Aluertonshire, belonging to the church of Durham.

Hec indentura protestatur, of which the above proctor inserts a copy, and which is here partially exemplified, made between the late William, sometime archbishop, and the prior and convent with respect to jurisdiction and its exercise in Houeden and Houedenshire, Aluerton and Aluertonshire; and demanded judgment in favour of the prior and convent and college and letters dimissory, which judgment the said chancellor gave by a definitive sentence which he has caused to be drawn up in the form of the present public instrument, and to be subscribed, published and sealed by Master John Welton, clerk, notary public, the said commissary's scribe for the occasion, and to be sealed with archbishop Henry's seal, which sentence was read, delivered and promulgated at Cawood, 26 September, 1410, indiction 4 (sic), the first year of John XXIII, in the presence of, as witnesses, Masters John Wodham, B.C.L., John Gilby, B.C.L., John Belvas, Thomas de Rihale, and Richard Stanton, clerks, notaries public, of the dioceses of York and Lincoln, and was attested, published, sealed and subscribed by the above John Welton, clerk, of the diocese of York, notary public and scribe as above, on the above date.
