To the justices of the Bench. Whereas the late king granted to Edmund
Gacelyn the manor of Cattemere, co. Berks., to hold for life, and the king
being lately informed that Eleanor, late Edmund's wife, had entered that
manor, at her husband's death, the king ordered the sheriff of that county
to make known to her that she should be in chancery on the quinzaine of
Midsummer next, to show cause why the manor, together with the issues
thereof, should not be taken into the king's hands, and to answer for the
contempt and damage to the king, and further to do and receive what
the king's court should determine; and now the king has learned that
William de Actone, by collusion with her contriving to disinherit the king
of that manor, asserting that it was given to Richard de Turbervill and
Margery his wife and Amicia daughter and heir of their bodies, by Meliora
de Turberville, with remainder to William son and heir of Amicia, has
demanded a writ de forma donacionis against Eleanor, calling her Eleanor
de Sturreton, the king therefore orders the justices so to act in that plea
that the king shall suffer no prejudice or disinheriting thereby without
being consulted. By K. and C. |
