de Sancto Johanne, merchant of Navarre, is indebted to them in 311l.
sterling, which he ought to have paid to them at a term now past, for
certain merchandise received from them, the said Reymund has not
hitherto kept the term of payment, and that whereas he left part of the
said merchandise at Sandwich and took part to parts beyond the sea,
they have besought the king to cause to be restored to them the merchandise left at Sandwich because Raymund delayed satisfying them for
the price thereof according to the agreement, and that the king would
cause goods and merchandise of Reymund found in the bailiwick of
the said bailiffs to be taken and delivered to them to the value of the
said goods sent by Reymund to parts beyond sea; the king therefore orders
the bailiffs to cause goods of Raymund to be arrested and delivered

them, if it be as stated by them. |

he was delivered by the justices in accordance with the privilege of the
clergy, and the king learns by inquisition that he afterwards caused to be
taken by the sheriff and the coroners of that county that Richard is of
good fame and conversation, and was never a public notorious evildoer.

William with an iron candlestick sharpened at both ends, Simon, perceiving this, went to settle the dispute between them and took the candlestick and held it so that Robert could not strike William with it, and
Robert, being enraged at this, tore the candlestick with great violence

death. |
