To the mayor and bailiffs of Southampton. Whereas Edward I. granted,
among other liberties that he granted by charter to strange and alien
merchants for certain customs and imprests granted by them on their goods
and merchandise brought into the realm, that no exaction, prise, or any
other imprest or other charge should be imposed upon the merchants, their
merchandise or goods, which charter the king has confirmed, and the king
—upon learning from the complaint of James Nicholas and Bartholomew de
Barde and their fellows, merchants of the society of the Bardi of Florence,
that the said mayor and bailiffs have exacted from them 4d. on each sack of
wool and on each pocket containing half a sack of wool or less taken out of
that town to foreign parts by the said merchants beyond the custom of
10s. that the merchants are bound to pay for each sack of wool taken out
of the kingdom, according to the aforesaid charter, and that the mayor and
bailiffs have levied divers sums of money from the said merchants without
warrant—ordered the mayor and bailiffs several times to desist from making
such exactions; and the king now learns from the renewed complaint of the
said merchants that although a plea is pending in the king's court between
the said merchants and the mayor and bailiffs concerning these exactions,
because the latter had neglected to obey the king's orders, nevertheless the
mayor and bailiffs cause the said sum to be levied pending the discussion of
the matter, wherefore the merchants have besought the king to provide a
remedy: as the merchants have found mainpernors in chancery, to wit
Lapinus Rogeri of Canterbury, of co. Kent, Peter Jacobi, 'spicer,' Nicholas
Guillelmi, Gorus Bonacours and Cambinus Fulberti of the city of London,
to satisfy the mayor and bailiffs for the said 4d. on each sack and pocket if

the mayor and bailiffs to supersede the exaction in the meantime, and to
permit the said merchants to take their wool from that town to foreign
parts without exacting the said 4d. |

boroughs, market towns, and other places where he shall see fit that the
gallon of wine shall be sold at the prices fixed in the king's previous order
to cause proclamation to be made [as in this Calendar, page 410
above], as the king learns that the proclamation has not been observed by
reason of certain orders of the king directed to divers mayors and bailiffs of
towns of the realm, at the prosecution of certain merchant vintners of the
kingdom, asserting that they cannot maintain themselves by their craft

Memorandum, that the partition of the lands of Aymer de Valencia, late
earl of Pembroke, tenant in chief of the late king, was made in chancery at
the prosecution of David de Strabolgi, earl of Athole, son and heir of Joan,
late the wife of David de Strabolgi, late earl of Athole, kinswoman and
co-heiress of the said Aymer, to wit a fourth part of the inheritance, in the
presence of Richard Talbot, knight, and Elizabeth his wife, kinswoman
and co-heiress of Aymer, for another fourth part (Laurence de Hastynges,
son and heir of John de Hastynges, kinsman and third heir of the said earl
for a moiety of that inheritance, being a minor in the king's wardship) in
the form following: Be it known that whereas in the partition of the
inheritance made at another time at the prosecution of Hugh le Despenser,
the younger, who had the wardship of the said Laurence by the late king's
grant, the castle and manor of Castleacre, as of the value of 26l. 12s. 8½d.,
which were recovered by the earl of Surrey by an assize of novel disseisin
whilst the said earl of Athole was a minor in the king's wardship, and
certain lands in Dakenham, co. Essex, as of the value of 37s. 8d., which are
occupied by John de Nevill, and 20l. of rent in Beverley, Scorburgh,
Besewyk, Fosceton, Nafferton, Louthorp, Alburn, Fivele, Twenge, Sixindale,
Bruneby, and Killum, co. York, which are occupied by William de Twenge,
and 4l. of rent yearly in the manor of Cherdesle, which Peter Carbonel and
Isabella his wife and John their son render for their lives, and Mitford
castle, co. Northumberland, as of the value of 39l. 13s. 0d., and the manor
of Pountelaund with certain lands in Little Eland, in the same county, as of
the value of 52l. 0s. 10¼d. were assigned in the purparty of the said earl of
Athole the son, which castle and manor of Ponteland were wont to be
worth the said sums in time of peace, but at the time of that partition they
were only worth 22s. 4¼d. because they had been destroyed and wasted by
the Scots, and they are extended by the new extents at 9l. 18s. 8¼d.; it
was considered that all the said sums should be deducted from the total
sum of the extent of the inheritance, according to which the said partition
had been made, and that a new partition should be made, these sums being
deducted, among the heirs and parceners, so that the earl of Athole should
retain the manors and lands assigned to him in his purparty that are clear
and free from challenge, and that what is lacking to him should be
supplied from the purparties of his said parceners. And be it known that
by an account and examination made thereupon, it was found that Richard
Talbot and Elizabeth had in excess in their purparties 25l. 15s. 11¼d., and
that more was retained for the aforesaid heir in the king's wardship than
belonged to him to the value of 47l. 15s. 11¼d., which ought to be assigned
to the earl of Athole in supplement of his purparty; wherefore it was
considered that the earl should have from the purparty of Richard and
Elizabeth and from the purparty of Laurence the value of the deficiency of
his own purparty, notwithstanding any fines or alienations levied or made
after the death of the earl of Pembroke; and hereupon by the assent of
Richard and Elizabeth, the manor of Colyngburn, co. Wilts, which had
been previously assigned in the purparty of Elizabeth, was assigned and
delivered to the earl of Athole in satisfaction of the excess of his purparty.
And it was agreed by the chancellor, treasurer and others of the council
that the earl should have from the purparty retained for the said heir in the
king's wardship the manor of Braburn, co. Kent, which is extended at
61l. 8s. 3d. yearly, and that the manor of Westle, co. Suffolk, extended at
14l. 2s. 2½d., except the houses of St. Ed[mund] previously retained in the
king's hands for the earl's purparty, should be retained for the purparty of
the heir of John de Hastynges. And the castle for Mitford and the manor
of Ponteland, as of the value of 30l. yearly, are also assigned to the earl;
who prayed that they might be retained to that value for the said heir, or
be assigned to Richard and Elizabeth for her purparty. Be it remembered
that the total of the extent of the inheritance, except dower and other
reversions, at which the first partition was made is 1,227l. 16s. 0¼d.; two
parts whereof are 613l. 18s. 01/8d., and a quarter is 306l. 19s. 01/16d.; and
the sum at which the present partition has been made is 1,123l. 11s. 9½d.,
the sum of 104l. 4s. 2½d. being deducted from the greater sum for the lands
so recovered extended beyond the true value, a moiety whereof is
561l. 15s. 10¾d., and a quarter is 280l. 17s. 113/8d. There remain in the
purparty of the earl of Athole according to the first partition, the manor of
Styvekeye, co. Norfolk, extended at 10l. 19s. 8d.; the manor of Possewyk,
in the same county, extended at 18l. 7s. 10d.; the manor of Westlexh[am],
in the same county, extended at 10l. 19s. 6d.; the manor of Holkham, in
the same county, extended at 12l. 19s. 0d.; the manor of Geynesburgh, in
co. Lincoln, extended at 63l. 14s. 11d.; the manor of Kentewell, co. Suffolk,
extended at 16l. 4s. 6d.; a messuage in the town of St. Edmund, extended
at 6s. 8d.; the manor of Bychyndon, co. Buckingham, extended at
16l. 13s. 0½d.; the manor of Egarton, co. Kent, extended at 10l. 3s. 4½d.;
certain tenements in Bishop's Hatfeld, co. Hertford, extended at 32s. 9d.;
certain tenements in Holewell, in the same county, extended at 23s. 1d.
yearly. There are assigned to the earl the castle of Mitford and manor of
Ponteland with lands in Little Eland as of the value of 30l. yearly, and the
manor of Colyngburn, of the purparty of Richard and Elizabeth, as of the
value of 25l. 15s. 57/8d., and the manor of Braburn, of the purparty of
Laurence, as of the value of 61l. 8s. 3d., and there remains a deficiency in
the purparty of the earl of Athole, according to this partition, of 9s. 10¾d.,
for which he remains to be satisfied. And it is considered that the said
heir and parceners shall have action in common to recover the castle and
manor of Castelacre and the said 20l. of rent in the towns of Beverley,
Scorburgh, etc., and the lands in Dakenham so that if anything thereof be
recovered, it may be divided among the heirs and parceners, and that each
of them shall have his portion likewise in the said rent of 4l. in Chardesle,
co. Buckingham. |
