Mandate to collate and assign to John Fismoris, priest, of the diocese of Ardfert, the precentorship of Ardfert, a non-major non-elective dignity with cure, value 16 marks sterling, void because Patrick Fismoris, having obtained it by canonical collation, has held it for more than a year without having himself promoted to holy orders, and without papal dispensation, even after being monished by the ordinary to do so, the said Patrick being removed.

Praem., in the said diocese [of Glasgow], the habit to be given to him, and his profession received, and to whom the pope by other letters granted the said monastery in commendam for three months, decreeing that as soon as he had been received as a canon and had taken the habit and made his profession, provision was forthwith (ex tunc) made to him of the said monastery, and that he was appointed abbot thereof; the said resignation having been made after he had been received as a canon, and within the said three months.

The pope has learned that the sacristship of the monastery of Dunfer[m]lyn, O.S.B., in the diocese of St. Andrews, has been so long void by the death of David Kontht [sic] extra R.c. that its collation has lapsed to the apostolic see, although Thomas Monemute (?), a monk of the said monastery, has detained it for some time without any title or right, even after the said David had been at the instigation of the said Thomas imprisoned by the late Henry, abbot of the said monastery, and had been forced to resign to the then abbot. (fn. 3) The pope, therefore, hereby orders the above abbot to collate and assign the said sacristship, a claustral office, the holder of which is removeable at the pleasure of the abbot and convent, value 20l. sterling, to Robert Haiware, a monk of the said monastery, professed of the said order, summoning and removing the said Thomas; whether it be void as above, or be still void by the death of John de Benalcia (?) extra R.c., or be void in any other way.
