To John de Palton, escheator in Somerset. Order not to intermeddle
further with two parts of the manor of Netherattebere or with the other
lands taken into the king's hand by the death of Thomas de Hunteleye and

death held no lands in his demesne as of fee in that bailiwick of the heir of
Laurence de Hastynges, earl of Pembroke, tenant in chief, a minor in the
king's wardship, because Thomas, who lately held of the said heir 3
messuages, a cottage with a close adjacent, 30 acres of land and divers other
lands in Overattebere, alienated them in fee long before his death to Edward
Hurgeon, parson of Saunford Crescoys church, and to William de Dorset,

two parts of the said manor of another than the king or the said heir. |

mayhem in the town of Cambridge and the suburb thereof, wherein the
scholars of the university of Cambridge or their serjeants are concerned, as
the chancellor, masters and scholars of that university have besought the
king to provide a remedy, as the cognisance of certain pleas of trespasses
not amounting to felony or mayhem in the said town and suburb, where the
scholars or their serjeants are one of the parties, pertain to the chancellor
or to him who supplies his place and has pertained to the chancellors from
time out of mind, and they have held inquisitions concerning such
trespasses and excesses committed by scholars of the university although
one of the parties was not a member thereof, and have punished the guilty
according to their discretion; and certain laymen of the town, scheming to
infringe the liberties of the university, and to disquiet both the regents and
the students therein, have lately procured the indictment of divers masters
and scholars of the university before Richard and his fellows, for divers
trespasses and excesses whereof the cognisance pertains to the chancellor,
by reason of which indictments the said masters and scholars are arrested
by order of the justices, and the king wishes to maintain the liberties and
privileges of the university. By K. and C. |
