Oct. 6.
Windsor castle.
To the abbot and convent of Malmesbury. Order to take again their letters patent concerning a corrody or maintenance within that abbey of the king's foundation which Richard Fylongley has by gift of the late king, to admit to their house the said Richard and John Scoryer the king's servant, yeoman of his squillery, and minister to them for their lives and the life of the longest liver such maintenance as the said Richard had, making and delivering to them letters patent under the common seal of the house with mention of what they shall take, and writing again by the bearer what they will do; as the said Richard is minded to give up his letters to be cancelled to the end that the king should grant the corrody to him and the said John as aforesaid, and for the good service of the said Richard to the late king, and of the said Richard and John to himself, the king has granted the same to them even as the said Richard or any other heretofore had.
