To the abbot of St. Thomas the Martyr's and the prior of All Saints without the walls of Dublin. Mandate as below. The recent petition of William Talbot, prior of the house or hospital of St. John Baptist's without the walls of Dublin, of the order of Crossed friars (ordinis Cruciferorum) living under the rule of St. Augustine, contained that although he has always studied to be of good life and conversation, and has not been defamed of any crime, nevertheless, the present pope, circumvented by the false report of Richard Hediane, clerk, of the diocese of Cashel, to the effect that William had perpetrated a number of excesses and crimes then expressed, ordered the dean of Leighlin, his name not being expressed, if Richard accused William before the said dean, and if he found the said statements to be true, to deprive and remove William, and collate and assign the priory to Richard; that David, dean of the said church, proceeding to execution, cited William to appear before him, in a place very and even notoriously suspect to William, in order to answer to the foregoing, and, although it was signified to the said dean on William's behalf that the said place was not safe for him, William, inasmuch as the dean unjustly refused to appoint him another place, appealed to the apostolic see but, lawfully hindered, has not prosecuted the appeal within the lawful time, wherefore he has petitioned the pope, notwithstanding the lapse of the said time, to commit the causes of the appeal and of the principal matter to some upright men in those parts. The pope therefore orders the above two, if they find what is alleged about the said impediment to be true, notwithstanding the said lapse to summon Richard and others concerned, hear both sides, taking cognisance also of the principal matter, and decide what is just without appeal, causing their decision to be observed by ecclesiastical censure, without appeal. Humilibus supplicum votis. (P. and A.de Piscia. | P. xvi. de Varris.) [2 pp.]

Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual modern description in Italian: ‘Pio ii. 1463. Anno 6. Lib. i,’ and on the inside of the cover is Mgr. Wenzel's ‘An 6. to. 6.’ A contemporary flyleaf has, in different contemporary hands, the description: ‘Primus de tabellionatus officio, de (?) beneficiis vacantibus, de (?) diversis [formis], de regularibus anno vio. domini Pii pape ii,’ the order: ‘R(ecipe) M., P. [i.e. P. de Varris],’ and the answer: ‘Rubricatus est. Jo. M.’ There is also the quasi-contemporary ‘Quesit(us).’ The contemporary description ‘Primus …’ occurs also, as usual, on the bottom edge of the volume. There are ff. i.–cccii. of text, many of which are blank, followed by a few blank ff. at the end of the volume.
  • 2. Vaguely written. Indistinct formation of letters is always a feature of the writing of this scribe. The spelling therefore of hardly any of the names is certain.
  • 3. idque eciam cederet ad decorem ecclesie Artferten. supradicte.
  • 4. quandam particulam terrarum in titulum perpetui beneficii assignari solitarum cui cura non imminet animarum.
  • 5. Preterea volumus quod formam huiusmodi a te tunc prestiti juramenti nobis de verbo ad verbum per tuas patentes litteras tuo sigillo signatas per proprium nuncium quantocius destinare procures.
  • 6. Substituted in the margin by P. [de Varris] in place of the ‘familiaritatis' of the text, which is cancelled and over-written P[etru]s.
