Dec. 10. Marlborough. |
To William le Vavassur. Whereas the king has appointed the sheriff
of York to make divers provisions of corn in that county for the maintenance of the king and his magnates who are going with him to Scotland
at Whitsuntide next, and he has requested men of religion and others of
the community of that county to aid and counsel the sheriff in making the
said provisions, as William, William de Cantilupo, Ralph son of William,
and John de Insula, or two of them, shall cause them to be requested
on the king's behalf: the king, because he has this matter much at
heart, orders William, together with William, Ralph and John, or one of
them, to induce by such ways and means as they shall deem best the said
men of religion and others to do the premises, signifying to them on the
king's behalf that he will cause them to be satisfied for the corn from the
issues of the county and from the first money that shall be levied from
the aid granted to him in the same county to marry his eldest daughter,
so conducting himself in this behalf as to merit the king's commendation.

Dec. 11. Marlborough |
To the abbot of Dore. The king understands that the abbot of Citeaux
has sent certain of his proctors to the abbot and other abbots of that order
in the realm in order to exact from them a sum of money for his use, and
that the said abbot has been appointed executor of this exaction. As this
exaction may redound against the king ordinance against carrying silver
out the realm and otherwise to his prejudice, he inhibits the abbot from
making to the abbot of Citeaux or anyone in his name any subsidy in
money or other things by reason whereof money or silver may be carried
out of the realm or fraud may otherwise be done to the ordinance aforesaid,
by reason of any subvention, gift, loan or in any other manner, without
the king's assent and licence, or from making any exaction from any
abbots in the realm to pay any such subvention to the abbot of Citeaux,
or from molesting them in any way by reason of the non-payment of any
sach exaction. He is to understand that if he do otherwise, the king will
severely punish him for so doing. |
|
To the abbot of Vale Royal. Order forbidding him to pay anything to
the abbot of Citeaux by reason of the exaction aforesaid. |

Chichester, in the presence of Master John de Cadomo and Sir William
de Byrlay and Sir Robert de Bardelby, under whose seals Adam kept the

affairs; and the chancellor received the seal into his own hands there,
