detained under arrest his woad and other merchandise in that town, whereupon he has besought the king to cause them to desist from such distraints

find sufficient security to answer for the custom of 3d. a pound, and the
other customs which alien merchants pay, on his merchandise brought to
that town, if they ought to belong to the king, then to cause his woad
and other merchandise to be dearrested and delivered to him or his attorney, and to permit him to do what he wishes therewith, having received

they shall cause John and Walter to be released from any distraint made
from that reason, as John Fraunceys has shown the king that whereas the
king lately committed the custody of the said lands to Walter, which lands
were in the king's hands by reason of the minority of John, son and
heir of John de Burdeleys, to hold until that heir should come of age,
rendering to the king yearly the extent of these lands, and although John de
Burdeleys long before his death granted all the lands which he held
of the king in chief together with other lands which belonged to him in
Cumberton and Cotenham to John Fraunceys and Thomas de Pateshull,
now deceased, by the king's licence: and Thomas and John were seised of
those lands by virtue of the said gift, and continued in seisin thereof until
Thomas's death, and John was seised thereof from the time of Thomas's
death until now, and sues before Walter in chancery to revoke the
king's said commission, yet the said extent is exacted of him from the time

de Tumby and John de la Gotere to be at York on the quinzaine of Midsummer last, to inform him and his council there upon certain things,
especially touching the king, and to treat and to do what should there be

them, by another writ, under pain of forfeiture, to be in person before
him and his council at the same place on the feast of St. James the Apostle
next following, to do and receive what should be enjoined upon them
on the king's behalf; and although the said writs were delivered to them,
as the king has learned from trustworthy testimony, yet they have neglected
to obey those orders, nor could they show cause why they did not appear on
that day or on the quinzaine of Midsummer, and they did not return the
king's writs directed to them; the king not wishing to pass over (relinquere)
such contempt and disobedience, and chiefly because the premises touch
his state and the defence of the realm against the Scots, orders the sheriff
to attach John and John wherever they shall be found in that bailiwick, so
that he shall have their persons before the king and his council at York
on Monday after the Nativity of the Virgin next, to answer for their contempt and the other premises, and to do and receive what shall then be

To Richard de la Pole, the king's butler. Although the king lately ordered
him to cause 500 tuns of wine, beyond those 200 tuns of wine which
the king lately ordered him to buy and purvey for his use in the duchy
[of Aquitaine], to be bought and purveyed, and to cause 100 tuns thereof to
be taken to London and the remaining 400 tuns to Kyngeston-upon-Hull
to be kept there until further orders; yet because the king has ordered
Nicholas Usus Maris, constable of Bordeaux, to cause 700 tuns of wine
to be bought and purveyed from the issues of that duchy, the king orders
Richard to supersede the buying and purveying of the said 500 tuns of wine. |

islands of Gernereye, Jereseye, Serk and Aureneye. Order to array all
the men of those islands, both knights, esquires, and other defensible men,
and to ordain, by the counsel and advice of discreet men of those islands
concerning the safe and secure keeping of the islands, and of the castles and
fortalices in the same, against hostile attacks, so that no damage or danger
may come to those islands or to the king's people there by their negligence;
the king also gives orders to all [the inhabitants] of those islands to be attendant upon and answerable to William and Henry in all things which
pertain to the safe custody and defence of those islands, because the king
has learned that a great fleet is assembled upon the sea to harass him and
his people. By C. |
