To Nicholas Flemyng, mayor of York. Whereas lately at the suit of
Nicholas Shayl of Alverton, complaining to the king that whereas Gerard
Salvayn delivered divers silver vessels to Richard son of Nicholas Shayl by
deed indented as pledge for a sum of money owing by him to Nicholas, on
condition that if he did not pay the money in the time specified in the deed,
then the silver vessels should remain to Nicholas and Richard as their own
chattels, and although Gerard did not pay the sum within the time, so that
the vessels ought to remain to Nicholas and Richard, Hugh de Louther,
justice appointed with others to hear and determine certain contempts and
trespasses committed by Gerard upon the king, arrested the vessels as
though they belonged to Gerard, the king thereupon ordered Hugh to certify
him of the cause of the arrest; who certified that the vessels were found
in the hands of William de Beleby of York because John son of the said
Nicholas and Mariota his wife took and carried the vessels away from
William's house against his will to the house of Geoffrey le Botiller in
Stayngate, and Richard Shayl, having found security to prosecute his
claim before the mayor against John and Mariota for the wrongful
removal and caption of the vessels, prayed the mayor to arrest the aforesaid
vessels until it should be decided to whom they ought to remain; whereupon the king appointed John de Insula, John de Don', and Hugh to
enquire in the presence of the said Gerard, Nicholas, Richard, John,
Mariota, William, Geoffrey, and the mayor; by which inquisition it was
found that Gerard, on Friday after the quinzaine of the Holy Trinity, in
the eighth year of the king's reign, in York castle delivered divers silver
vessels named in the said deed to Richard Shayl, John de Richemund, and
Adam le Lystere, to be kept by Richard until the quinzaine of St. Martin as
security for payment of 62l. at that time, and that Richard son of Nicholas
Shayl carried away certain vessels from the castle to the house of William
de Beleby in York, and delivered them, with the exception of twelve
pieces and a silver ewer (aquarium) contained in the said deed that John
and Adam carried away as security for 8l. 13s. 4d. due to them from
Gerard, to the said William until the said quinzaine, and that John son of
Nicholas Shayl and Mariota his wife came to William's house, on Saturday
after Midsummer last, and prayed to have the said vessels delivered to
them, to which William assented, and they carried them to the house of
Geoffrey le Botiller in York, and that the mayor afterwards arrested the
vessels at the suit of William, and that they remained in the mayor's
custody by the assent of William, John, and Mariota until the said
quinzaine, and that Gerard did not pay the money at that time: wherefore
the king orders the mayor to deliver the vessels in his custody to Nicholas
and Richard, or to their attorney in this behalf. |

of York to be constructed anew and repaired by the view and advice of
twelve men of the city of York, and to cause the trench made by Nicholas
Meynill, when sheriff of York, to save the fish in the stew of Fosse, to be
filled up, as the king learns, by inquisition taken by John de Insula
and John de Donecastre, that the mills are wholly decayed through the
default of certain keepers of the same, and that the wheels and other things
were carried away by a great flood, and that John Malbyz, when sheriff of
that county and keeper of the mills, considering that the houses of the said
mills were so decayed that they could not last any longer, took down
(disiunxit) the timber of the said house to save the timber, which he
delivered to Nicholas de Meynill, subsequently sheriff, by indenture made
between them, and that Nicholas during his term of office caused a trench
to be made to save the fish in the stew of Fosse in order that the course
of the water might flow through it until he should cause the mill-pond,
which had been carried away by the said flood, to be re-constructed. The
sheriff is to receive the said timber from Nicholas and to use it in aid
of the repair of the mills. |
