his which are arrested if they were taken by him and his fellows from two

that Peter may not have cause to complain again to the king, as he has
shown the king that Hugh and William, because certain other men of
Bayonne were present at the taking of the said broken ship with the men
of Dertemuth, have arrested certain of his goods which he and his fellows
took at sea in war from two ships called 'Tarites' which belonged to the

To the justices of the Bench. John son of Thomas de Brikevylle has
shown the king that whereas he seeks before those justices a messuage and
2 carucates of land in Bentlegh against William son of William de Putton,
and because John de Scoteneye produced before the justices certain letters
patent of the king containing that the king granted to John the custody of
a messuage and carucate of land in Bentlegh, Burghton and Estuderlegh
which Thomas Payn and Alice his wife, deceased, held for Alice's life of the
inheritance of William de Putton brother and heir of John de Putton, a
minor in the king's wardship, which were taken into the king's hand by
reason of the minority of the heir, to hold until the heir should come of
age for rendering a certain ferm yearly to the king, and asserted that the said
messuage and carucates which John sought against him were the messuage
and carucate whereof the custody was committed to him as aforesaid, and
that William de Putton, a minor in the king's wardship, is the same person
styled William son of William de Putton in the writ, and seeking that the
justices should not proceed in that plea without consulting the king, they
have hitherto delayed to proceed in that plea although John has asserted
before them that the tenements contained in the writ are not the same as
those granted to John de Scoteneye by letters patent, and he is prepared to
verify this, whereupon he has besought the king to provide a remedy; the
king orders the justices to proceed further in that plea, rendering full and
speedy justice to the parties according to the law and custom of the realm,
but not to proceed to render judgment without consulting the king. |
