The king, sympathetically aware how in past times until recently the merchants and people of the nation of Germany, being under and of the confederation, league and company called the Dutch Hanse, otherwise called the merchants of Germany, who have the house in London commonly called the Guildhall of the Germans, have had and used free and friendly dealings and exchange of merchandise with his subjects of this his noble realm of England, and they with them, to the profit, benefit and common weal of both sides, as clearly proved by experience: and how since one side took offence against the other, great troubles, losses and damages have ensued, not only through open war made and exercised by both sides against the other, but also by the withdrawal of the accustomed advantages and commodities which otherwise should have come to him, his said subjects and also to them by the free exchange of merchandise they would have enjoyed here in his said realm, and his said subjects would have had in their regions and countries, as is well known; |

Moreover, where as the merchauntes of the said Hanze, have had and enjoyed dyvers privileges, liberties and free usages, within this reame of Englond, by reason of certeyn grauntes to theym made by his noble progenitours kynges of Englond, as by the lettres patentes theruppon passed fro tyme to tyme it may clerely appere of record; by cause and uppon trust oonly of the which privileges, libertees and free usages, the same marchauntes have be encoraged to make and contynue their resort unto this < his > lande: and forasmoche as nowe the same marchauntes and persones of the Hanze have approbable doute and fere, that in cas all other things were thoroughly passed and concluded betwixt his highnes and theym, so that they myght and wold resorte with their goodes and merchaundises unto this his reame ayen, they myght be yet < interru > pted and empeched uppon their seid privileges, libertees and free usages, by pretence that the chartours of his moost noble progenitours and his, to theym or their predecessours afore this tyme made and graunted in that partie, were forfaited and lost, by occasion of werre and hostilite levyed and made by theym ayenst hym, his liege people and subgetts, or for somme other cause that myght happen to be founde, purposed and alleged ayenst theym. In consideration hereof, and for the wele publique that may ensue to the kyng and his said land by the reconsiliation of the merchauntes of the said Hanze, and by that that the kynges subgetts shall mowe as ofte as theym shall like, repare and resorte unto the londe of Pruce, and other places of the Hanze, freely and suerly entre the same, the < re > abide, and departe fro thens at their pleasure, to bye and selle with all maner persones, as frely and largely as any tyme heretofore they have be wonte to doo, with enjoying all and everyche their liberties and free custumes which they have used and enjoyed resonably eny tyme passed; and that no prises, exactions nor prestations shalbe sette uppon their persones or goodes, otherwise then have be sette uppon theym any tyme afore this .c. yere nowe last past or above: wherunto the seid merchauntes of the Hanze by their oratours have assented and agreed. The kyng, of his bounteuous and benigne grace, by the advis and assent of the lordes spirituelles and temporelles, and the commens, in this present parlement assembled, and by auctorite of the same, wolle that it be also ordeyned, establisshed and enacted that all maner privileges, libertees, fraunchises and free usages, graunted unto the merchauntes of the seid Hanze by hym or any of his noble progenitours kynges of Englond, and all maner chartours and lettres patentes passed þeruppon, by whatsoever name or names the seid marchauntes be named or called in the same, stond in full strengh, force and effect, as they didde or shuld have doon yf noo such werre and hostilite had be levyed and made as is aforesaid. And moreover, for the more suerte and certeynte of the same, the kyng, by thadvis, assent and auctorite aforesaid, wolle that his lettres patentes under his grete seall be to the seid marchauntes made, after the fourme and effect ensuyng; and that the same lettres patentes so to theym made, be by the seid auctorite good and available to theym and their successours, after the tenour and fourme of the same. | in consideration of which, and so that, by God's grace, the war and hostility there has been between both sides may completely cease and be brought to an end, [and] also so that the old alliance may be renewed between them in such a way that it might continue and endure forever, by the advice and assent of the lords spiritual and temporal and the commons assembled in this present parliament, and by authority of the same, wills of his gracious and bounteous disposition that it be ordained, decreed and enacted that none of the said present or future merchants of the said Hanse, or any of their successors shall be grieved, charged, accused or obstructed in future in their persons, ships, goods, merchandise or any other thing, by reason or occasion of any sentence, judgment, marque or reprisal given, decreed or granted by his highness and his council at any time before 19 September in the thirteenth year of his reign [1473] against the said merchants of Germany, or the [col. b] persons of the said Hanse, by whatever name or names they have been called or named in the said sentence or judgment; so that from the said nineteenth day there shall be a permanent halt in and of any further execution of any such sentence or judgment passed against the same merchants or persons. And that all manner of promises, obligations, guarantees, fixing of pledges, and all other bonds made by any of the said merchants or persons of the said Hanse within this his realm by reason or occasion of any such sentence, judgment, letters of marque or reprisal given, decreed or granted as is aforesaid, or for their execution, shall be void and of no effect; so that the said merchants or persons, or any of them, or any person on their behalf shall not be charged, bound or constrained from the said nineteenth day to answer upon or to them or any of them in any court spiritual or temporal, but that they and each of them shall be completely discharged and freed of the foregoing as though such bonds or promises had never been made or passed by or from them in this matter at any time before the said nineteenth day. And that all manner of pleas, questions, disputes and actions by means of marque, reprisal or otherwise moved or to be moved before any judge or judges within this realm of England or elsewhere between any of his subjects on the one side and the said merchants or persons of the Hanse on the other side concerning the taking of any person's ships or merchandise, or any other goods on the open sea, in havens or any other places during the time of this last trouble and hostility that occurred between both parties, that is to say from 21 November in the eighth year of his reign [1468] until the said nineteenth day, shall cease and be set aside; so that it shall not be lawful or permissable for any of his subjects or any other person of whatever nation to make or commence any process within this his realm of England, or other places under his obedience, by way of reprisal or otherwise against the merchants or persons of the cities or commonalties of the aforesaid Hanse by pretence or reason that they have taken any ships or goods from him during that time; but that it shall be lawful for both parties, his subjects as well as those persons of the said Hanse, to bring ships and goods thus taken before the said nineteenth day into this his realm of England and other places under his obedience as well as elsewhere, and take them out freely and safely, and at their pleasure distribute, sell and alienate them without their first or former proprietors and owners being able to challenge or recover the said ships, goods or any part of them; and that those persons who were the employees, servants and followers of one side or the other during the time of the said trouble [p. vi-66][col. a] shall not be sued, arrested, troubled or harassed by any person from either side in any place or region because of the foregoing, neither in their persons nor goods, even though all the same goods had been taken by reason of the said trouble and dispute. Moreover, where the merchants of the said Hanse have had and enjoyed various privileges, liberties and free usages within this realm of England by reason of certain grants made to them by his noble progenitors kings of England, as clearly appears on record by the letters patent given thereupon from time to time; only because and upon trust of which privileges, liberties and free usages the same merchants have been encouraged to continue visiting this his land: and seeing that the same merchants and persons of the Hanse now have some doubt and fear that when everything else has been thoroughly resolved and concluded between his highness and them, so that they might and would come again with their goods and merchandise into this his realm, they might yet be interrupted and prevented from using their said privileges, liberties and free usages under pretence that his most noble progenitors' charters and his previously made and granted to them or their predecessors in that matter had been forfeited and lost through the war and hostility raised and made by them against him, his liege people and subjects, or for some other cause that might be found, proposed and alleged against them. In consideration of this, and for the public weal that will ensue to the king and his said land by the reconciliation of the merchants of the said Hanse, which will enable the king's subjects, as often as it shall please them, to travel to and visit the land of Prussia and other places of the Hanse, [and] freely and safely enter the same, stay there and depart at their pleasure, to buy and sell with all kinds of people, as freely and fully as they have been accustomed to do at any time previously, with the enjoyment of all and each of their liberties and free customs which they have reasonably used and enjoyed at any time in the past; and that no prises, exactions or prests shall be imposed on their persons or goods other than have been imposed on them at any time before this last hundred years or more: to which the said merchants of the Hanse have assented and agreed by their spokesmen. The king, of his bounteous and benign grace, by the advice and assent of the lords spiritual and temporal and the commons assembled in this present parliament, and by authority of the same, wills that it shall also be ordained, decreed and enacted that all the privileges, liberties, franchises and free usages granted to the merchants of the said Hanse by him or any of his noble progenitors kings of England, and all the charters and letters patent issued thereupon, by whatever name or names the said merchants are named or called in them, shall remain in full strength, force and effect as they did or should have done if no such war and hostility had been raised and made, as is aforesaid. And moreover, for the greater security and certainty of the same the king, by the aforesaid advice, assent and authority, wills that his letters patent shall be made under his great seal to the said merchants in the following form and effect; and that the same letters patent thus made to them shall be by the said authority good and valid to them and their successors after their tenor and form. |

| Item, quod in omnibus generibus placitorum, salvo casu criminis pro quo infligenda sit pena mortis, ubi mercato < r > implacitatus fuerit, vel alium implacitaverit, cujuscumque conditionis idem implacitatus extiterit, extraneus vel privatus, < in > nundinis, civitatibus sive burgis, ubi fuerit sufficiens copia mercatorum predictarum terrarum, et inquisitio fieri debeat, sit medietas inquisitionis de eisdem mercatoribus, et medietas altera de aliis probis et legalibus hominibus loci illius ubi placitum illud esse contigerit; et si de mercatoribus dictarum terrarum numerus non inveniatur sufficiens, ponantur in inquisitione illi qui idonei inveniantur ibidem, et residui sint de aliis bonis hominibus et idoneis de locis in quibus placitum illud erit. | Item, that in all kinds of pleas, except of a crime for which the punishment is death, when a merchant has been impleaded, or has impleaded another person, of whatever condition, alien or denizen, the person impleaded shall be, in markets, cities or boroughs where there are enough merchants with the aforesaid amount of land, and an inquest needs to be held, half the inquest shall consist of the same merchants and the other half of other reputable and law-worthy men of the place where the plea shall happen to be; and if the number of merchants with the said land is not found to be enough, those who shall be found suitable shall be put on that inquest there, and the rest shall consist of other good and suitable men of the places where the plea shall be. |

Item, on the said 6 October in the said thirteenth year [1473] another petition was presented to the same lord king in the present parliament by the commons of the realm of England being in the same parliament on behalf of William Shetford, in these words: |
| To the right wise and discrete commens in this present parlement assembled piteously compleynyng sheweth unto your wisdomes, William Shetford, cosyn and heire to Johan, oon of the sisters and heires of William Bruyen knyght: for asmoch as where Edward Shetford, ayell to the seid William Shetford, whos heire the same William is, that is to sey, sone of Piers, sone of the same Edward, was seased in his demeane as of fee, of the halfendele of the manoirs of Trecorn, Hamet, Dove < nant > , Deliowe, Deliowbell, Delioweboleyn, Deliowecarboleyn, and Lamelyn, with their appurtenauncez in the shire of Cornewaill, and of the same halfendele died seased; after whos deth, the seid halfendele discended to the seid Piers, as son and heire to the seid Edward, which Piers into the same halfendele entred, and therof was of such astate seased, unto the tyme that he of the same halfendele was disseased and put oute by Thomas Bodulgate, cosyn and heire to Alice, the oder of the susters and heirs to the seid William Bruyen knyght; which Thomas Bodulgate, because he had < title > to the oon half of the forseid manoirs, and was of grete myght in the forseid shire of Cornewaill, and understode well that the forseid Piers his coopersoner was pore, and had no myght nor frenship in the seid shire, entred and occupied the forseid hoole manoirs, and in substaunce ayenst all lawe and reason toke the profittes of theym; and, as it is seid in the said shire of Cornewaill, made a feoffement of the seid hole manoirs to certeyn persones, which of the same manoirs made astate ayen to the seid Thomas Bodulgate, and to Elizabeth then his wyf, nowe wyf [...] to John Welles, to have to the seid Thomas and Elizabeth, and the heires of the seid Thomas: and after the seid William Shetford, as son and heire to the seid Piers, entred into the forseid halfendele, and after the seid Thomas Bodulgate died at the feld of Barnet, and sithen the seid Elizabeth toke to husbond the seid John Welles, the which wrongfully claymyng the seid hole manoirs to be the joyntour of the said Elizabeth, have entred into the seid halfendele of the seid manoirs; and therof they and Isabell Rescarek vidowe, and Johan Coryngton vidowe, wrongfully have disseased the forseid William Shetford, and by myght and force kepen hym oute therof, and been so myghty, and so alyed and frended in the seid shire, and all the officers of the same so favourably enclyned to hem and their affinite, that the seid William Shetford eny recovere by eny action to be sued in that partie may not attaign; and though he wold entre into the seid maners, as he afore this tyme dyvers tymes hath doo, yet anon theruppon reentre is made ayen uppon hym, and soo doughtfull manasses made to hym to be slayn, so that he may take no maner profite of the same halfendele, nor dare not abide and contynue within the seid shire, wherthrough he is utterly enpoverisshed, and so but yf he may be holpen be youre blest mediation he is utterly undoon for ever, and withoute eny remedie by cours of the commen lawe. | To the most wise and prudent commons assembled in this present parliament, William Shetford, cousin and heir of Joan, one of the sisters and heirs of William Bruyen, knight, complaining pitifully shows to your wisdoms, that where Edward Shetford, grandfather of the said William Shetford, whose heir the same William is, that is to say, son of Piers, son of the same Edward, was seised in his demesne as of fee of a moiety of the manors of Trecorme, Hammett and Dannett [in Quethiok], and Deli, Delabole, Delioweboleyn, Deliowecarboleyn [in St Teath] and Lamellion [in Liskeard] with their appurtenances in the county of Cornwall, and died seised of the same moiety; after whose death the said moiety descended to the said Piers as son and heir of the said Edward, which Piers entered the same moiety, and was thereby seised of the estate until he was disseised and ejected from the same moiety by Thomas Bodulgate, cousin and heir of Alice, the other sister and heir of the said William Bruyen, knight; which Thomas Bodulgate, because he had title to one half of the aforesaid manors, and had great power in the aforesaid county of Cornwall, and well knew that the aforesaid Piers, who had the other half, was poor and had no power or support in the said county, entered and occupied the aforesaid whole manors, and contrary to all law and reason took the profits of them; and, as it is said in the said county of Cornwall, made a feoffment of the said whole manors to certain persons, who in turn made estate of the same manors to the said Thomas Bodulgate and to Elizabeth then his wife, now the wife of John Wells, to have to the said Thomas and Elizabeth and the heirs of the said Thomas: and afterwards the said William Shetford, as son and heir of the said Piers, entered the aforesaid moiety, and afterwards the said Thomas Bodulgate died at the battle of Barnet, and since then the said Elizabeth has married the said John Wells and they, wrongfully claiming the said whole manors to be the jointure of the said Elizabeth, have entered the said moiety of the said manors; and they and Isabel Rescarek, widow, and Joan Corington, widow, have wrongfully disseised the aforesaid William Shetford of them, and keep him out of them by might and force, and they are so powerful, and have so many allies and supporters in the said county, and all the officers of the same are so favourably inclined to them and their associates that the said William Shetford cannot achieve a recovery by suing any action in that matter; and even if he enters the said manors as he has previously done several times, yet immediately a re-entry is made against him, and such fearsome threats are made that he will be killed that he can take no profit from the same moiety and dares not live and remain in the said county, whereby he is utterly impoverished, and unless he can be helped by your blessed mediation he is completely ruined forever and without any remedy by the common law. |

Be it also remembered that on 1 February in the said thirteenth year [1474], with the lord king sitting on the royal throne, and the lords spiritual and temporal and also the commons of the realm of England appearing in full parliament before the same lord king; the venerable father the bishop of Durham, chancellor of England, announced to the aforesaid commons at the order of the same lord king that he was confident the reasons for the summoning of the said parliament had not slipped their mind; which were, as the same chancellor repeated, among other things, to establish good rule within the realm, and steady the same realm by the provision of justice, and to put persons living in excessive idleness to work by means of war overseas, and also to recover the royal right in the realm of France: to achieve all of which the same commons had cheerfully occupied themselves from the the beginning of the said parliament until now. For which the same chancellor, on behalf of the said lord king, gave thanks to the same commons, urging them so to continue; and, because on the issue of overseas war the views of his brother Burgundy were unclear to the same lord king, the same lord king had recently sent his ambassadors to his said brother, who were unlikely to be able to return immediately, at least not before the following feast of Easter [p. vi-99][col. a] at the earliest. Accordingly, having considered the foregoing, and the grave sickness of plague holding sway inside and outside the royal household, and the great expenses which the aforesaid lords and commons attending the said parliament had sustained and would sustain when it continued after the said feast of Easter, and also the unrest throughout the realm in the past year because of the delay in the administration of justice, because the justices of the said lord king had been kept from their usual progress at that time; it was thought by the lords of the king's council that his highness should rather prorogue the said parliament than continue it longer then, especially when so much hung on the arrival of the said ambassadors and the readiness of his said brother Burgundy. Taking into account these and other considerations, the same lord king proposed that his said parliament be prorogued, [col. b] and he did indeed and in fact prorogue it until the following 9 May; firmly commanding each and every person concerned to assemble in person at Westminster on the said 9 May in the usual places, without any excuse, to consider, discuss and reach agreement on what might then be ordained there for the fuller and wiser discussion and conclusion of the said business, God willing. Moreover, the same chancellor announced to the aforesaid lords and commons on behalf of the said lord king, that if any of them failed to appear in person on the stated day to attend the said parliament, the same lord king would so ordain for his punishment by means of an act of parliament, that the punishment would deter others from offending in that way in future. |

And immediately in the hall of the said chancellor within his said place, the said Henry being in God's and the king's peace, intending to have conveyed the said Thomas Bishop safely into London again to the said counter, the said Thomas Gibbes then came into the said hall, accompanied by other wrongdoers of his affinity numbering twenty persons, unknown to the said Henry, defensibly equipped for war, and then and there with force took and rescued the said Thomas Bishop from the ward and keeping of the said Henry, and the said Thomas Gibbes then and there gave the said Henry two grievous wounds with a sword, by which his life was threatened for a long time, to his damages of 100 marks, whereby the said Henry was at that time unable to secure the recovery of the said prisoner, because of which he stands in great danger of loss and charge in that respect unless your favourable help is shown to him [col. b] in this matter. And in addition to this, the said Thomas Gibbes then and there with great fury and violence caused his said misruled associates to take and lead away with them one William Grey, fuller, and they brought him to the house of the same Thomas Gibbes in the parish of St Martin in the Field, by Charing Cross in the county of Middlesex, and kept him there in prison, and put him in fear of his life until he made a fine with them of 20s. for his release and spent among Gibbes' associates 26s. 8d. against his will, and for fear of his death made an obligation for £10 to the said Thomas Gibbes that he should never subsequently vex, sue or trouble the said Thomas Gibbes or any of his said associates for that reason, to his utter undoing, unless your said help is shown to him in that matter. |

And if the said Thomas Bishop and Thomas Gibbes, or either of them, [do] not [do] as is aforesaid, but make default, that then such process on this act shall be issued from the said bench against them or him not appearing by a capias and exigent, as is usually used in the same bench on rescues returned by sheriffs and other officers to the same bench. And if the said Thomas and Thomas, or [p. vi-104][col. a] either of them, appear in the same bench as is aforesaid; that then he or they appearing shall find adequate surety to remain until the end of the plea on every suit sued there against them and each of them by the said Henry or William Grey, and to satisfy such damages as shall happen to be judged, assessed and specified in that matter: and that no protection or any essoin shall be allowed in any such suit for the said Thomas and Thomas, or either of them.
