To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to cause
156l. 11s. 11½d. to be allowed to Richard de la Pole in 1,493l. 18s. 8d. and
after subtracting the 400 marks remitted by him to the king of the residue
of 1,337l. 6s. 8½d. to give him payment or an assignment for what remains
over beyond the said allowance and release, if they find after viewing the
king's letters and inspecting the rolls and memoranda of the exchequer that
the 1,493l. 18s. 8d. are due to him and that nothing has hitherto been paid,
and that he is bound to the king in 156l. 11s. 11½d., as he has besought the
king to order such allowance and payment to be made to him, as the king
is bound to him in 1,493l. 18s. 8d. lent for his affairs, as may fully appear
by the king's letters patent in Richard's possession, and 156l. 11s. 11½d. are
exacted of the arrears of the office of gauger of wines for the time when
Richard and William his brother held that office of the king's grant. |

Clarendon. |
To the sheriff of Northampton. Order to cause the provost of the chantry chapel of Cotherstok to have seisin of the tenths of wastes and assarts
in the places of Horshawe and Calonheye, without delay, as the king lately
granted by charter to the provost and brethren of that chapel the tenths of
wastes and assarts in the forest of Rokyngham, approved, or to be approved,
and afterwards on learning that Roger de Appeltre, parson of Cleve church
unduly received tenths of 47 acres in a plot called Horshawe and Calonheye,
of wastes and assarts approved in the said forest, although such waste and
assarts are without the bounds of the parish of the said church, and willfully disturbed the provost from the reception thereof, the king ordered
the sheriff to notify to Roger that he should be in chancery on Wednesday
before St. Nicholas last to show cause why the provost should not receive
the tenths from those waste and assarts, in accordance with the grant, and
the sheriff returned that he made a full return of the said writ to
William de Holewell, bailiff of the liberty of Queen Isabel, who has a full
return of all writs, who answered that he notified Roger that he should be
before the king on the said day to do what the tenor of the writ exacts by
William Adebeyn and William Blogwyne of Kyngesclyve, on which day
Roger did not come when summoned, wherefore it was considered that the
provost should recover the tenths against him. |

Windsor. |
To the prior of Ware. Order to pay 160l. without delay to Robert de
Tughale, so that for lack of such payment the king may not have cause to
resume the priory into his hand and to punish the prior, if the prior finds
on viewing the king's orders that the king ordered him to pay that sum to
Robert, as the king is bound to Robert in 510l. 22d. as is found by the certificate of the treasurer and barons of the exchequer sent into chancery, and
he has remitted that sum to the king upon condition that prompt payment
or an assignment of 200l. thereof shall be made to him, otherwise the
510l. 22d. shall be paid to him entire, wherefore the king ordered the treasurer
and barons of the exchequer to pay Robert 200l. to give him an assignment
in places where he should be speedily satisfied for that sum, and although they
assigned to him, in part payment, the 160l. of the arrears of the ferm which
the prior is bound to render for his priory, and ordered him to pay that
sum to Robert, yet he has not cared to do anything therein, as Robert has
informed the king, wherefore for the non payment of the 160l. Robert seeks
payment from the king of 510l. 22d. in accordance with the agreement made
with him. |

Westminster. |
To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to cause the men
of co. Cumberland to have the terms granted to them by the king and to
cause them to be enrolled, not molesting the collectors of wool in that county
for 120 sacks, as in consideration of the immense plundering and destruction
suffered by those men by the frequent incursions of the Scots in the parts
of the March of that county before these times and the great expenses
incurred by those men for the salvation of the March against such attacks
while the king was absent in parts beyond the sea, and wishing
to render those men more ready in like case in future times, the king
granted that of the 120 sacks of the wool last granted apportioned
to that county, they should pay at the exchequer 30 sacks at Michaelmas
next, 30 sacks at Easter, 30 sacks at Michaelmas following and 30 sacks
at the following Easter. By C. |

To William de Clynton, earl of Huntyngdon, constable of Dover castle
and warden of the Cinque Ports. Order to dearrest without delay 15 tuns
of woad which he arrested on 10 June last by pretext of the king's order,
as William certified the king, and to deliver them to Nicholas Camberlayn,
merchant of Amyas, or to John Coteler, his serjeant, to do his pleasure
therewith, as Nicholas has besought the king to order the woad to be
dearrested and delivered to him, as after the truce began in Britanny
between the king and Philip de Valesio he caused 15 tuns of woad to be
taken to England by John to do his pleasure therewith, and the woad was
arrested at Faversham in the house of Philip son of Philip Nhete, by
reason of an order directed to William to arrest all the goods and merchandise of men and merchants of the power of France by virtue of an arrest
granted to Robert Beaufitz of Gillyngham by the king upon such goods,
and it is not the intention of those who made the truce that any arrest
made before the truce for any trespasses committed upon the men and
merchants of the king's lordship and power or those of his adversaries
should be made anywhere during the said truce. By C. |

To Hugh de Ulseby, late mayor of the staple at Bruges in Flanders.
Order to deliver to Thomas de Melchebourn, the king's merchant, the
charters, rolls, memoranda, muniments and all other things pertaining to
that staple, by indenture, without delay, as Thomas has been chosen as
mayor of that staple by the community of the merchants of England. |
|
The like to William de Rothyng and James Kayser of Newerk, constables
of the staple. |
