To Thomas de Breouse, keeper of the Forest this side Trent, or to him
who supplies his place. Order to cause proclamation to be made that all
abbots, priors and others having groves, pasture and other profits in the
king's forests in co. Surrey, of which the king's foresters in that county
ought to have puture and have been accustomed to have the same, shall
make such puture to those foresters without delay, and if they do not the
king will not permit his grants made to them to take effect, as the said
foresters have complained that the abbots and others have withdrawn the
puture under colour of certain grants made to them by the king, to wit
that they may make their profits of his woods within the bounds of those
forests without hindrance of his ministers, saving his beasts and other
rights, and the king's said grants contain no mention of discharge of the
said putures, and the foresters cannot maintain themselves in the king's
service or keep his beasts unless a remedy is speedily applied. By K. |

lands in his demesne as of fee or in service in chief or of another in that
bailiwick, but that he held jointly with Eleanor, for their lives, the manors
of Puttenye, Werne Plukenet and Ilebruere, co. Somerset, of the gift of

restoring to the prioress and convent there anything which he has levied,
as it appears by the chancery rolls of the late king that Edward I, on
21 May in the 29th year of his reign, at the suit of the nuns of Pollesworth,
showing that he ought to receive nothing of the issues of the abbey by
reason of a voidance, ordered the treasurer and barons of the exchequer to
certify him thereupon, and they returned that in the times of Master
Richard de Clifford, Master Henry de Bray and Malcolm de Harleye, his
escheators beyond Trent, and in the time of Richard de Holebrok, his
steward beyond Trent, it was not found that the king received anything of
the abbey by reason of a voidance, wherefore that king ordered Walter de
Gloucestr[ia], then escheator beyond Trent, to restore to Erneburge de
Hardresshull, then abbess elect, any issues which he had levied, wherefore
the late king on the 23 June in the 15th year of his reign, ordered Master
John Walewayn, then escheator beyond Trent, to restore to Maud any
issues taken by reason of the voidance by the death of Erneburge, and not
to molest her or the nuns for that cause. |

diocese, and to cause the bulls and instruments thereupon to be executed,
notwithstanding the ordinance that no payment should be made to the
cardinals, envoys sent to France to make a treaty with England, in the
name of procurations, by any of the realm of England, as the king has
considered the services of those cardinals and their labours for him in
France, and he has given them licence to collect and receive the said
procurations by their proctors. By K. and C. |

rents and possessions pertaining thereto, which priories pertain to the
abbey of St. Jacut (de Sancto Jacuto) in Britanny, to hold so long as they
should remain in the king's hand by reason of the war with the French,
in recompence for lands which he lost by reason of his service to the king
in Britanny, without rendering anything therefor, but as the king
previously committed the custody of the priory of Lynton, whereof the
place of Iselham is parcel, to William, William and Robert, for paying 40
marks yearly at the exchequer during the said war, which grant he did not
recollect at the time of the grant to William Daubenye, he does not wish
