in respect of a plea before them pending in the husting of London by
writ of right between Dru Barantyn and Margery his wife plaintiffs
and William abbot of St. Mary Graces by the Tower of London tenant

learned that the abbot alleged that by letters patent (produced) the
late king gave the same to him and the monks and to their successors,
for that they were aliened to mortmain without that king's licence,
that by letters patent (likewise produced) the king confirmed that
gift, and that so the abbot is tenant by gift of the late king confirmed
by the king, craving the king's aid; and after when the plaintiffs sued
in chancery for a writ de procedendo, the abbot alleged that Alice
Juvenal great grandmother of Margery, whose heir Margery is, was
seised of the premises, and without obtaining licence of the late king
by will proved and enrolled in the said husting bequeathed the same
to mortmain, wherefore they came as forfeit to the late king's hands,
and he gave them as aforesaid, and that by reason thereof a writ de procedendo ought not to be granted, craving a writ of supersedeas omnino;
whereupon the justices, serjeants at law and others of the council
learned in the law were summoned in chancery, arguments and
allegations were heard on either side, and the tenor of the said will,
and after full deliberation with advice of the court it was determined
that a writ of supersedeas omnino ought to be granted. |
