To Master Robert de Askeby. Order, upon pain of forfeiture, to be
before the king and his council at Westminster on the morrow of the
Circumcision next to answer for his contempt and the things that will
be set forth to him there and further to do and receive what will then be
determined, as although the king's letters directed to Robert and to other
clerks of England now and lately staying at the Roman court ordered
them to come to England to answer certain things to be set forth to them,
yet when the king's letters came, Robert departed from the said court to
hidden places, so that the letters should not be delivered to him, so that
he might pretend that he was excused by hiding, whereby the king holds
him the more suspect. By K. |

1 mark to Richard Morice and John Boursweyn, who have to the value of
6l. and 50s. respectively of the said goods, as they assert, for their

contains that all shall come safely to England with their goods and
merchandise, when they wish, without molestation, and now it is found by
