To the masters, échevins, and bailiffs of the town of Malines (Malinis).
Whereas at the complaint of Luke de Haveryng' and James Beauflour,
merchants of this realm, that they sent 21 barrels of honey, price 504l.,
7 tuns of wine, price 49l., to Brabant for the purpose of trading there, the
said masters, échevins, and bailiffs arrested the said honey and wine and
detained it for some time, the king requested them to cause the honey and
wine to be restored to the said Luke and James; and the king afterwards
learnt upon trustworthy testimony that Luke and James suffered damage to
the amount of 240l. sterling by the arrest and detinue of their honey and
wine, and he requested the masters, échevins, and bailiffs to cause suitable
amends to be made to Luke and Simon for their damages: as they have not
done so, the king again requests them to cause amends to be made to Luke
and Simon according to his former request, lest renewed complaint reach
him, whereby it would behove him to provide Luke and Simon with another
remedy. They are desired to certify the king of their proceedings herein
by the bearer. |

Whereas at the suit of Thomas de Beverlaco, Nicholas Cobbe of Whiteby,
John son of Gilbert de Paghel, Robert Prest of Paghel, Robert le Corouner
of Grimesby, and Richard Emmynge of Wainflet, merchants of the
realm, that whereas they lately went to the parts of Strallesonde with their
merchandise, the bailiffs and ministers of that town arrested 906 marks
sterling of their money in that town, whereof 69 marks belonged to the
said Thomas, by the wrongful procurement of Herman Meppen of Strallesond and John Skayl of Statine, which sum is still detained from them, the
king wrote to the masters, consules, schöffen and men aforesaid to cause
justice to be done to the said merchants: the king now requests them, as
they have failed to do justice, to cause restitution to be made to the
merchants and to cause full justice to be done them, as they would wish the
king to do to merchants of their town in like case, certifying the king of
their proceedings in this matter. |

To Philip, king of France and Navarre. The king acknowledges receipt
of his letter requesting the king to adjourn until the Ascension next the
matter of certain merchants of the city of London concerning a sum of money
that they ought to have received from the king of France according to the
promises made by him in his letters. The king would be willing to grant
such adjournment if he could do so without injuring the said merchants,
who have refused in the king's court to assent to such adjournment,
because they assert that they have sustained great labour and expenses on
account of the previous delays in hope of obtaining payment; wherefore
the king requests the king of France of excuse him for not acceding
to his request. |
