The said William is not at present of sound mind.

And he gave to his said son his manor of Ormesby, to him and the heirs of his body for ever, rendering yearly 22l. 4s., 60 quarters wheat, 20 quarters beans, and 80 quarters oats, during his father's life only; and afterwards a fine was levied between them at York, but before the levying and gift aforesaid he was weakened by his infirmity. After the feast of St. Michael in the king's 12th year, he gave his manor of Kildale to his said son William for life, rendering 20l. during his father's life only, with remainder to William son of Arnold de Percy and his heirs for ever; he was not of sound mind and memory when he gave it, but he did it by the procuring of the said William his son, his steward and valet, who gave him no peace day or night. And he gave his manor of Killyngwyk to Arnold de Percy his first born son and heir, and to his heirs for ever. And he gave to the prior of Park about ½ carucate land in Kildale, for finding two chaplains for celebrating divine service; to Master Michael de Walkyngton about ½ carucate in Crathorn for life; to Master John de Toucoutes a vaccary with common pertaining thereto in Kildale to him and his heirs for ever, which he gave to the said Michael and John to get help from them; and to the prior of Giseburgh a close in Depildebrigg with the whole common of pasture in Kildale for ever.

diligently examined by the said John and Geoffrey, as to his state, softly weeping said that he was not of sound mind nor knew how his son William entered his manor of Kildale, nor how he himself was ejected, but begged peace from them, and that they would not stop him from returning to his manor of Kildale; whereby it appears to the said John and Geoffrey that he is wholly impotent of body, and not of sound mind.
