To the collectors of the custom of wool, hides and wool-fells and to the
weigher (tronatori) in the port of London. Order to cause all the articles
ordained by the king for the weighing of wool to be observed, without
making a sinister interpretation thereof, as owing to the various frauds and
deceits in the weighing of wool before these times and in order that better
answer might be made to the king for the customs, he has ordained certain
articles to be observed in such weighing, by the advice of his council, to wit,
that if the weigher is found false in the weighing of wool and is convicted
thereof, he shall have judgment of life and members, and a merchant who
has given anything to the weigher to make false weight, and is convicted
thereof by the weighers or other faithful testimony, shall incur the
forfeiture of the wool so weighed, and that every sack shall be weighed
equally by the beam (tronum) without advantage, and because the custom of
wool is increased, the king has granted 4 cloves to the sack more than it
used to be, until Michaelmas next, by account of the sacks weighed by the
beam made between the collectors of the customs and the merchants. |

To the sheriff of Kent. Order to cause the barons of the Cinque Ports
to have respite until Midsummer next from the execution of a judgment
made upon a fine for the cessation of the last eyre of justices begun in that
county, as the men of the county made that fine with the king, and the
barons were assessed to pay a certain portion thereof, and a dispute
afterwards arose between the community of the county and the barons, as
to whether the barons ought to contribute to that fine, and the king
ordered the dispute to be heard by J. then bishop of St. Davids, now
bishop of Worcester, the chancellor, with the justices and others of the
council, to hear the reasons of the parties, and by reason of this order the
council was assembled at divers times and the said affair was brought before
them with great difficulty, and it seemed to them that the barons ought to be
quit of that fine for the lands which they held in the county without their
liberty which their ancestors possessed in the 44th year of Henry III, and for
which the barons are not bound to come to common summonses before the
justices in eyre, to any pleas by that king's charter, so that they are bound
to contribute to the payment of the fine for the other lands in the county
acquired after that year, according to the rate thereof, and now the barons
have besought the king to order them to have a respite from the execution
of this judgment, as on account of the length of time from the said 44th
year until now it is almost altogether unknown what lands they possessed
in the county without their liberty in that year, and by reason of that
ignorance the present tenants of those lands may be easily aggrieved
unduly by distraints to pay the said portion, unless greater notice of those
lands is quickly held. By C. |

To the sheriff of Kent. Whereas the king gave the barons of the Cinque
Ports respite until Midsummer next from the execution of a judgment
delivered upon a dispute between them and the community of that county
as to whether the barons ought to pay a portion of the fine made by the
county for the cessation of the last eyre of the justices begun there, and the
king ordered the sheriff to permit them to have that respite [as above], but
as the king wishes the barons to be attendant upon divers affairs touching
the defence of the realm against the king's alien enemies at sea, for a
certain time, and they have set out to sea for the most part, as the king has
learned, so that they cannot as yet travail upon the prosecution of the said
affair: the king orders the sheriff to supersede making any execution upon
the matter until St. Peter ad Vincula next, as he has given them respite
until that day. By C. |
|
Afterward, on 28 July following, because the barons were so occupied
upon the arraying of their ships for the king's service, by his order, that
they could not be attendant upon the prosecution of the said affair, the
king gave them respite until the quinzaine of Michaelmas next, and ordered
the sheriff of Kent to permit them to have that respite. |
|
Afterwards on 8 October following, because the barons had set out to
sea with certain ships in the king's service, whereby they could not be
attendant upon the said affair, the king gave them respite until the next
parliament and ordered the sheriff of Kent etc. as above. |

or hinder the ministers from freely buying victuals and things in the city
for the abbot and monks and taking them by land and water to the abbey,
and they shall take all whom they find doing the contrary and shall keep
them safely in the king's prison in that city, so that they shall not be
released without the king's special order, certifying the king in chancery
from time to time of what they do in the premises, and before the
quinzaine of Midsummer next of what they have done in the proclamation,
as the king has taken the abbot and convent with their men, ministers and
serjeants into his special protection, forbidding the mayor and bailiffs and
all others to do any harm to them; and on being afterwards informed that
an unreasonable dispute had arisen between the mayor and bailiffs and the
citizens and community of that city and the said abbot and convent, the
king forbad the mayor and others, upon pain of forfeiture of life and
members, to do any harm to the abbot and convent or to their ministers
bringing goods and victuals through the city to the abbey; and now the
king has learned that although that prohibition was delivered to the mayor
and others, certain of the citizens and community, to no small number,
armed and arrayed in a warlike manner, have assembled in the city and in
the neighbouring parts, lying in wait for the abbot and monks and their
men, to do harm to them and their goods, and openly threatening them,
imprisoning and ill-treating some of them who have gone to the city on
their affairs and those of the abbot and convent, and detaining them until
they have made fines with them, and doing several other misdeeds, whereby
the abbot and monks have left their abbey with their men, for fear of
death, and so the divine worship and other works of piety are withdrawn,
to the injury of the king's peace and contrary to the statute of Northampton. |
