To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to account with
the mayor, bailiffs and community of Lenn or their attorneys for the costs
and expenses incurred by them in the munition of ships for the king's
passage, after viewing the king's order to them and the letters of
Robert de Morle, admiral of the fleet from the mouth of the Thames
towards the North, and to give them payment, allowance or other satisfaction
without delay for the costs which they shall be found to have incurred by
such account, by the testimony of the admiral, as the king lately appointed
certain lieges to arrest all ships of thirty tons burthen and over in divers
counties of the realm, and cause them to be taken, munitioned with men,
mariners and others and victuals, to the ports of Orewell and Sandwich for
the passage of the king and several magnates and others to parts beyond
the sea, and afterwards the king, wishing to hasten that passage, ordered
the bailiffs, masters and mariners and community of Lenn, upon pain of
forfeiture, to cause all ships of 30 tons burthen and over to be made ready
without delay and provided with double equipment and with victuals for
forty days, so that they should be ready at the port of Orewell on Monday
before the Ascension in the 14th year of the reign, to take the king
and his lieges to the said parts, and the mayor, bailiffs and community have
besought the king to order payment to be made to them as they have
incurred divers expenses in the munition of the ships, for victuals, men
and other necessaries, by the admiral's view and testimony, as may appear
by the letters patent of William (sic) in their possession. |
