requests them to aid him with a cart with four horses and their harness
and with two men to take the cart thither at the king's expense and to

To the sheriff of Gloucester. As the king learns from the complaint of
the prior and convent of St. Oswald's, Gloucester, which is the king's
free chapel, that Robert, archbishop of Canterbury, has caused public
inhibition to be made in the town of Gloucester and elsewhere in the
sheriff's bailiwick, under penalty of excommunication, of anyone rendering
to the prior and convent tithes, rents or other ecclesiastical rights, or
selling to them or buying from them victuals or other things necessary
for their maintenance, or otherwise communicating with them, which, if
allowed, would redound to the prejudice of the king and of his crown and
the derogation of his royal dignity, he, not wishing that the prior and
convent should be excluded by such inhibitions from buying and selling
victuals and other things for sale and from communicating with all
Christians in all things, orders the sheriff, if such inhibition have been
there made, to cause public proclamation to be made in the town of
Gloucester and in other places where necessary that no one shall desist
by reason of such inhibitions from communicating with the prior and
convent as with others of the realm who are in the king's peace and faith
in the buying and selling of victuals and other things for sale and also in
all other things, as they have been wont to do heretofore. [Prynne,
Records, iii, p. 1026.] |

behalf, as the hospital, which was founded of the alms of the king's
progenitors, has been wholly exempt from all jurisdiction of the ordinary
and from all such payments as above from the time of its foundation, so
that no one but the king and his chancellor ought to visit or intermeddle
with it. [Prynne, Records, iii, p. 1028.] |
