To the archbishop of Canterbury. Mandate as below. The petition of Henry, minister-general, and Francis Manetti of Florence, Friar Minor, contained that between the late John Tyssyngton, minister-provincial of England and the said Francis, who was then studying theology at Oxford, compacts were made about the expenses of Francis's mission to the Roman court for the impetration from the present pope of a privilege for the benefit of the said minister and of the friars of the province, on the subject of John XXII's constitution Vas electionis; that, the said John dying in those parts before Francis could present to him the privilege, he presented it to his successor and the friars of the province, who refused to pay the money which he had borrowed, and otherwise refused, as they still do, to carry out the said compacts; that in the chapter-general of the order held at Assisi he obtained a sentence against them, and recently in that held at Genoa execution of the sentence. The petition adding that he doubts whether they will not drag out the taking of effect of the said sentence and execution, or disobey them, the pope orders the archbishop to summon them and to make, if the parties be willing, an amicable composition; if not, to execute the said sentence, or to decide the cause de novo, enforcing his decision by ecclesiastical censure.

To the abbot of St. Mary's without the walls, York. Mandate as below. Since the beginning of the Schism the ministergeneral of the Trinitarian order has adhered to schismatics wherefore the ministers and other brethren in England impetrated from Urban VI faculty to elect a provincial having power to visit, correct and reform, by virtue of which faculty they elected William Pudesey, priest, as their provincial, who has held the office for many years. Afterwards it was suggested to the present pope on behalf of Robert York, Trinitarian, without mention of the above, that Reginald, minister-general, had constituted him his vicar-provincial and nuncio in England, and that William Pudesey greatly molested him. At Robert's petition the pope, deceived, confirmed his appointment by the above Reginald, and granted that he could not be removed for life from his office by the said minister [-general] or any others, ordering the bishop of Durham to induct him into the said office, and to remove William and any other. At the recent petition of William and the said friars, containing that Robert, against the said faculty, has molested them, the pope orders the above abbot, if the facts be as stated, to revoke the letters granted to Robert, restore William to the state in which he was before they emanated; instruct the friars of the order and others concerned to hold and obey him, and not Robert York, as their provincial; and to inhibit the said bishop, Robert and any others from further executing the said letters.

Declaration, etc. as below. On 2 Non. April anno 9 [1398, above, p. 153] the pope appropriated to the Cistercian abbot and convent of St. Mary's, Woubourne, in the diocese of Lincoln, the parish church of Whittechuche (sic) in that diocese, of their patronage, value not exceeding 80 marks, so that on the resignation or death of the rector they might take possession, reserving a fit portion for a perpetual vicar, the right of presenting to the ordinary a fit person for the vicarage being reserved to them. Afterwards, on 5 Kal. May, anno 10 [1399, above, p. 191], without mention of the above letters, the pope appropriated the same church to them, so that on the resignation or death of the perpetual vicar (sic, ef. p. 191) they might have the church served by a secular priest appointed and removed at the pleasure of the abbot. Subsequently, as their recent petition contained, by virtue of the above first letters they obtained possession of the said church on its voidance, and a fit portion has been reserved by bishop Henry, by whom also a perpetual vicarage and a fit secular person, presented to him by the abbot and convent as perpetual vicar, have been instituted. Their petition added that they doubt lest on account of the above second letters the first letters may be impugned. The pope therefore declares that his intention was and is that the second letters should not prejudice the first, and that his will was and is that the said appropriation should take effect under the first and not under the second letters, and that the church should be served by a secular perpetual vicar, to be presented, as above, to the ordinary, in accordance with the first letters. He further annuls the said second letters, and confirms the said ordination of a vicarage, assignment of a portion and institution of a vicar. Ad perp. rei mem. Apostolice sedis.

Declaration as below. Lately the Benedictine prior and chapter of Ely set forth to the pope that when a perpetual vicarage was, with consent of the then rector or parson, the late John de Cardamo (Cadamo on f. 242), instituted by authority of the ordinary in the parish church of Wysebeche and collated to the late William de Northwolde, the said John, retaining for himself the tithes of flax and wool, granted to the said vicar (vicarage, ibid.), for the support, by the said vicar, of the burdens incumbent on the chapel of Kylhouodike (Hylhouodyck, ibid.), all tithes of mills and all the land which the said John had bought from the prior and convent of Spinney (de Spincto) for the building (ad opus) of the said chapel, and certain other land belonging to the chapel, and the tithes, belonging to the said church, of faldage (faldagii) and of fishery and of sheep (ovium; omnium on f. 242), lambs, cheese and butter, geese, calves and sucking pigs, and all altar oblations and obventions, the manors of the said vicarage and chapel as the manor of the vicarage reaches from (a; et on f. 242) the castle ditch to the arm (flumen) of the sea which goes towards Ely, saving the tithes, and two acres of land with appurtenances near the manor of the vicar, in such wise that the said William was bound to keep a lamp burning before the great altar daily and continually from the hour of vespers until the whole divine service, day and night, was finished; that a late bishop Hugh, considering the fatness of the said church over and above the portion of the said vicarage and vicar, and wishing to consult the commodity of the then prior and the chapter, and to lighten the vicar's burdens, ordained that the prior and chapter should have in perpetuity the manse then belonging to the parsonage of the said church, which church was void and was in the bishop's gift, and the other manse at Kelhous, and granges, and tithe of all corn from the fields between the bank (ripam) of Wysebeche and the parish of Lev [er] yngton, and in the event of the said land being submerged by floods, he willed and granted that the prior and chapter should have in perpetuity all tithes, namely of flax, hay and pasture from the said lands, and assigned to them the homage, with the whole yearly rent, belonging to the said church, with all its appurtenances and liberties as the rectors had been wont to have them, and ordained that they should have in perpetuity the moiety of the hay of the demesne of the said bishop in (de) the town of Wysebeche, and granted, by the name of the parsonage of the said church of Wysebeche, the two manses, tithe, homage and hay, as above, to the prior and chapter for their own uses, so that all the said fruits etc. of the church should be for the use of the monks of Ely for their better refection in refectory and not elsewhere, saving however the portions assigned to vicar William and his successors; that afterwards a late bishop Hugh, Hugh's successor, granted to the prior and chapter the two manses, tithe, homage and hay, as above, and ordained that vicar William and his successors should have the arable land belonging to the said church, tithe of corn, hay, pasture and fishery, and all tithe arising from fields, meadows, pastures between the bank of Wysebeche and the parish of Elm (de Elmo, de Eline on f. 242d), together with a moiety of hay of the [demesne and all tithe of hay of the, as on f. 242d] said parish, saving also to the said vicar and his successors all proceeds of the altar of the church of Wisebeche, with tithe of wool and flax and of all other proceeds belonging to the said church, with the following exception, namely that if the said land from which the prior and chapter received tithe of sheaves were submerged by floods, they should receive all the tithes arising from the said lands, namely of flax, hay and pasture; and that the said second bishop Hugh willed and ordained that the said vicar and his successors should bear all ordinary burdens, but extraordinary burdens only in proportion to (pro) their portions, and that both they and the prior and chapter should bear the repair of the chancel. The pope confirmed the above ordinances, grants, assignments, etc. At the recent petition of the prior and chapter—containing that some have raised a doubt as to whether one flood is sufficient or a total submersion of the said lands, and in what way the aforesaid ‘pasture’ is to be understood, and whether the repair of the chancel is to be borne by the vicars [and] prior and chapter in common, or whether the vicars are bound to the said repair in accordance with the resources of their portions of the said church—the pope declares that the repair is to be borne by the vicars in common and in equal portions, that one flood or a submersion of the greater part of the said lands shall suffice, so that in such case the prior and chapter shall receive the whole tithe of fish, reeds (arundinum) and of hemp, hay and flax from the same lands, the tithe of all animals grazing on the same, and adds and ordains that the prior and chapter shall have every year a moiety of hay of the said demesne in the whole town of Wysebeche, whether such demesne lands be farmed or rented or not, and that to them also shall belong the whole tithe of hay and pasture from the fields, formerly producing grain and wheat, now uncultivated.
