king ordered the justices to inspect the records and processes and further
to do what is just at the suit of the present abbot of St. Evroult, and
although the king caused all the records and processes upon the suit to
come before him because he learned from the abbot of Leicester that in
the record and process held before the justices of the Bench and in the
others sent to the king, there were manifest errors, and the king sent the

the justices of the Bench, distrains the abbot of Leicester for the said
arrears, as the king has learned from his plaint; the king therefore orders

wool to be collected, and the bishop returned that the abbot of Thorneye
is the only one mentioned in the schedule sent with the order who is in
his diocese, and the abbot asserts that he holds in frankalmoin, as is
witnessed in the charter of King Edgar, their feoffor, and not by barony,

To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to supersede the
demand made on Adam de Hopton, the king's clerk, for 19 marks 6s. 8d.
received by him, after having viewed the king's writ to the sheriff of Salop

king's use in cos. Salop and Stafford, received by the sheriff, Nicholas de

receivers, and to pay the expenses of weighing, packing and carrying the

To Thomas bishop of Hereford. Because the king is informed that the
lands and liberties which ought to pertain to the king [in Ireland] and
for which answer was made to the king for no small sum of money, are
granted for life, in fee and otherwise by untrue suggestions and procurations
made in the king's court, to divers men of those parts, so that too little is
retained in the king's hands for supporting the charges of the land, the
king therefore orders the bishop to inform the king upon the premises and
to give his advice with that of others of the council, under the seal used
in those parts, without delay. By C. |

To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Whereas previous kings
granted by charter to the church of St. Etheldreda, Ely, and to Hugh, then
bishop there and his successors and to the prior and monks there, that they
should have a return of all writs of the king within the hundred and half of
Midford, and in the five hundreds and a half of Wykkelawe, the Thredling
(Trillyng) of Wyneston, and in all their lands and fees without those hundreds
so that neither the earl nor any minister at Somersham should intermeddle
therewith without the licence of Simon, the present bishop, or the other bishops
there and the king confirmed this by charter and further granted to John de
Hothum then bishop and to the prior and convent, that although they had not
used those liberties yet they should enjoy them without hindrance; and the
bishop has informed the king that although they had summons of the exchequer
and executions of the same in the bishop's soke of Somersham, which is in the
hundred of Hirstyngstan in the said (sic) county, by virtue of the said charters,
yet the abbot of Rameseye, under colour of a charter to the abbot and
convent of Rameseye of returns of writs and summons of the exchequer in
the said hundred, impedes the bishop from exercising the said liberty there,
whereupon he has besought the king to provide a remedy, and the king
ordered the sheriff of Huntingdon to direct the abbot to be in chancery
with his charters three weeks after Easter, which day the king has given
to the bishop to be there with his charters, and hearing the reasons, to
cause those things which were granted to the abbot and convent to the
prejudice of the bishop, to be taken out of the abbot's charter, and a new
charter to be made for him if he desires it, and further to do and receive what
the king's court shall decide; and now the king has learned that certain
pleas upon the said liberties have been moved at the exchequer at the suit
both of the bishop and of the abbot, and are pending there undecided, the
king therefore orders the treasurer and barons to supersede holding such
processes, certifying the king in chancery of all the process thereupon which
has been held before them, because it is not right that the matters should
be pleaded at the exchequer which are in chancery by the king's order, for
information and discussion. By p.s. |

cos. York and Westmorland, as the king ordered the justices of the Bench,
before whom an assize of novel disseisin upon the matter was arramed, to
supersede the assize until the perambulation should be made [as in this
Calendar 12 Edward III, page 384]. By pet. of C. |

To Griffin Cragh of Lopda. Notification that although the king ordered
him to come to him to parts beyond the sea, well prepared to arms, to be
at Great Yarmouth on St. Thomas last with the other lieges whom the
king ordered to assemble there for the same purpose, and to stay there at
the king's wages, yet the king holds him excused for not appearing
then on that day because he has learned that Griffin was at that time
staying in Wales in the service of William de Monte Acuto, earl of
Salisbury, who is staying in the king's company in parts beyond the sea. |
