To the mayor and échevins (scabinis) of Amiens. The executors of the will of Firmin de Sancto Petro, burgess of Staunford, inform the king that whereas a moiety of three barrels of woad (wayde) of the goods of the said Firmin together with other goods of other their citizens, when he was citizen of their city, were arrested at Southampton by the late king's order on account of the robbery of cloth and other goods of Stephen de Abyndon, merchant of this realm, at Lans in Artois (Arthus') committed by malefactors of the power of the king of France, and were afterwards delivered to the said Stephen by consideration of the king's court in part satisfaction of his losses; and although afterwards the king of France, at the complaint of the said Firmin and other their citizens whose goods were so arrested, when it appeared to him that the goods stolen from the said Stephen had come to the hands of certain of his bailiffs and to his own uses, wishing that due satisfaction should be made to their citizens for their goods arrested on account of this robbery, caused the value of the said goods to be allowed in the debts due from the community of that city, on condition that they should cause satisfaction to be made to their fellowcitizens for their goods so arrested; they have nevertheless delayed satisfying the said Firmin or his executors for the above woad; the king therefore requests them to cause justice to be done to the said executors herein, lest execution of the deceased's will should be delayed through their default.
