 Flemish ships in Kyngcston-upon-Hull, whose master-mariners were named 
 William Petresone, Peter Bellard, and John Westland, of Flanders, and 
 loaded the same with wool, wool-fells, and other merchandise to the value 
 of 4,000/. sterling to be taken to Flanders to trade there, and that certain 
 armed malefactors of the power of the count of Flanders entered and took 
 the ships on their voyage thither against the Scheldt {la Shclde) and took 
 them to Aberden in Scotland, and delivered the wool and merchandise 
 aforesaid to other Flemings who were then with the king’s enemies there, 
 by whom they were afterwards carried to Flanders, the king wrote to the 
 count of Flanders requesting him to hear the complaint of the said mer- 
 chants or their attorney, and to cause speedy justice to be done to them ; but 
 the count has wholly failed to do them justice, as appears by the certificate of 
 the community of Beverley under their common seal : wherefore the king 
 orders the said bailiffs to retain goods to the value of 100/. out of the goods 
 of Flemings lately arrested by them at his order, although the king’s order 
 for delivery of the said goods may make no mention of any retention 
 in favour of the above merchants, which goods are to be detained until

 mission to him of the honour, as the king learns by inquisition taken by 
 John de Thorp and William de Morwode, clerk, that Robert Malet 
 formerly founded the said priory, and that it is subject to the abbey of 
 Bernay {Berniaco) in Normandy, as a cell thereof, so that neither a prior 
 nor a monk ought to be made therein without the assent of the abbot of 
 Bernay, and that Robert Malet and his heirs took nothing of the goods of 
 the priory upon voidance, but used to place a gatekeeper at the priory gate 
 in sign of their lordship, who was maintained by the priory during the 
 voidance, and who ought to receive 5s. or an ox at the installation of the 
 new prior, and that Henry III., to whose hands the advowson of the priory 
 came as an escheat by the forfeiture of the Normans in England, and Edmund, 
 late earl of Cornwall, who had the advowson of the gift of Henry HI., 
 received nothing in the priory at times of voidance beyond appointing 
 a gatekeeper as above. The keeper is ordered to restore any issues that he 
 may have received and to remove the gatekeeper, if he have appointed one.

 the king that the escheator detains certain issues of the.se lands, although 
 he has delivered seisin of the same to Philip in accordance with the king’s

 that Philip Pertrich held of the king at his death divers lands in Estwode 
 and Great Sutton by knight service as of the honour of Relegh in the king’s 
 hands, and that he held no other lands of the crown, but that he held lands

 Sancho, sent to the, late king John, the judge of his court, and Bundissalvus 
 (sic) Martini with his open letters, and the mayor and the community of 
 Bayonne sent Arnald de Villari and John Dardir, their fellow-citizens, with

 of the said proctors, ordained that all ships and other goods of the 
 citizens of Bayonne taken by the subjects of the king of Castile, within or 
 without his realms, should be restored by the said king within a certain 
 time, now elapsed, as appears by the rolls of the late king’s chancery of his 
 21st year; and afterwards, because the king of Castile did not observe the 
 ordinance, Stephen de Penecestre, late constable of Dover and warden of 
 the Cinque Ports, arrested divers goods of the men of Castile in the port of 
 Sandwich ; by reason of which arrest, Arnald de Sancto Martino recovered 
 65s. sterling in part satisfaction of the said 230 marks ; and whereas after

 his proctors to the king for the settlement of the disputes ; and the king, 
 having deliberated with those of his council conceruiiig the new and old 
 disputes, ordained, with the assent of the said proctors, that the ordinance 
 of the late king, which the late king Sancho approverl by his letters, should 
 be completed and observed ; although the said Arnald de Sancto Martino 
 afterwards bore special letters of the king to king Ferdinand for the 
 recovery of his goods, and sought for the execution of the ordinance above- 
 said from those appointed by the king and by the king of Castile to super- 
 intend the execution of the ordinance, the commi.ssaries of the king of 
 Castile appointed with the king’s commissaries for the execution of the 
 ordinance at Fuentarrabia (Fontem liubkhim) did nothing in execution of 
 the said ordinance, as appears by the letters patent of Caillard de Sancto 
 Paulo, knight, lord of Seres (de Hero), anvl of Master I’eter Arnaldi de Vico, 
 the king’s commis.saries : wherefore the king orders the said sherilf to 
 arrest goods of the men of the power of the king of Castile to the value of

 To the sheriffs of London. Whereas, at the complaint of Philip de 
 Leghton, burgess of I|)swich, that the castellan of the town of St. Valery 
 had arrested and detained a ship of his called ‘ la Creade,' of the value of 
 50/., in the port of St. Valery, the late king frequently reque.'ted the (tount 
 of Dreux, lord of that town, to do justice to Philip for the ship and tackle 
 and for his damages, which amounted to 40/. sterling, but the count did 
 nothing in the mattei', as appears by the testimony of the bailiffs and 
 burgesses of Ipswich by their letters patent ; by reason whereof Pliilip 
 recovered, by divers of the late king’s writs to the sheriffs of London and 
 Southampton, 20/. 8s. lOr/. from men of tlie count’s power, as appears by 
 the return of the writs in the late king’s chancery ; the king lately ordered 
 them to arrest goods of the men of St. Valery to the value of 69/. 11s. 2d., 
 the remainder of the sum due to Philip, and they have returned that they 
 have arrested a ship, value 15 marks, half of which belongs to Waleric le 
 Joune and half to Matthew Bryan, burgesses of St. Valery, and the tackle 
 and cargo (fietfum) of the same, value four marks; and Waleric and 
 Matthew afterwards asserted in chancery that the arrest was unjustly made, 
 the said Philip asserting the contrary ; whereupon the king ordered the 
 ship, tackle, and cargo to bo delivered lo Waleric and Matthew by the 
 mainprize of Philip de Beauveys, Roger de Lenn, and James Pe de Lu, of 
 London, who mainperned in chancery to answer lor the above 19 marks to 
 the said Philip de Leghton if they were adjudged to him : the king, as it 
 does not appear to him that the process in this matter b%un and approved 
 in the late king’s time, as appears by the rolls of his chancery, ought to be 
 cancelled {irritari) or annulled without deliberation of greater counsel, 
 now orders the said sheriffs to compel the mainpernors to satisfy Philip 
 for the said 19 marks, in part satisfaction of the aforesaid 69/. [11s. 2c?.], 
 saving to the said Waleric and Matthew their challenges when they will 
 speak hereof at another time.

 2d. a day for each of the berners, veutrers and bercelettar.®, and ^d- a day

 To John Abel, escheator this side Trent. Order not to intermeddle

 worth, Wodeweston, and Alcombery, in the county of Huntingdon, taken 
 into the king’s hands by reason of the death of William de Pappeworth, as 
 it a{)pears by inquisition taken by the said escheator that William and Ada 
 his wife were jointly enfeoffed of these lands by Richard de Keston, clerk,

 marle in the hands of Margaret, countess of Cornwall, by knight service, 
 of his wife’s inheritance, by which inquisition it appears that he held nothing 
 in chief as of the crown, but that he held divers lands of other lords in 
 the said escheator’s bailiwick, the king having taken John’s fealty for the 
 above lands. He is not to intermeddle further with the lands that Philip 
 held of other lords.

 permitted by negligence and feigned defence the said Philip son of Philip 
 de Esteneye to enter and occupy the hamlet aforesaid, which was appur- 
 tenant to the above manor, to the disinheritance of the late king, as the said 
 Philip has appeared in chancery and shewn by the record of pleas in the

 he entered the same after his father’s death by right of inheritance, without

 sequestration that they may have made, and to restore anything they may 
 have levied for this purpose, as it appears from the letters patent of J. late 
 bishop of Winchester and O. late bisliop of London, that the master and

 deficiency, with like clause for restitution by the king in case the English 
 goods seized in Flanders were insufficient to satisfy the Flemish merchants 
 for their goods seized in England ; and it was found by inquisitions that the 
 goods of the merchants of England, Ireland and Wales seized by the 
 countess were worth 4,000/. sterling more than the Flemish goods seized in 
 England ; which sum the count did not pay, although often retiuested to do 
 so ; whereupon the late king ordered that 730 marks in which the mayor and 
 community of the city of London were bound to certain burgesses of Ghent 
 on behalf of Henry III., which he found deposited in a certain place, should 
 be distributed to tin; said Engli.sh merchants in part payment of the above 
 4,000/. ; and the bailiffs and echevins of Ghent, at the procuration 
 of their said com-burgesses, caused the wool and other goods of Wllliatn de 
 Luyton, Robert Per.son, Roger le A'iroler, Richard de Wandesworth, William 
 le Folour, Henry de Arderne, William de Kent, Hugh Ponrt, John Gombaud, 
 and Peter de Blakeneye, citizens of London, to be arrested to the value of 
 1,000/. sterling in the town of Sluys (c/e Eivclusis) for the above 730 marks ; 
 whereupon the late king frequently requested the bailiffs and echevins 
 to satisfy the said citizens for their goods so arrested, and to restore 
 the said bond to the mayor and community of London ; the late king after- 
 wards, becau.se the bailiffs and echevins sent many frivolous and 
 untruthful replies to him and did not fulfil his request, desired Sir Robert 
 de Beton, count of Flanders, to do justice, herein; and the present king 
 wrote to him requesting him to do speedy justice to the said citizens : 
 because the said count has not done justice to them, as appears by the 
 lettei’S patent of the mayor and community of the city of London, the king 
 now orders the sheriffs to arrest goods of the men of Ghent to the value of 
 1,000/. stei'ling, the estimated value of the above goods, and to keep the 
 s.ame until the said citizens liave been satisfied, certifying the king of their 
 jiroceedings herein. By K.

 To R. count of Flanders. At the complaint of Richard Randolf, burgess 
 of Great Yarmouth, that certain Flemings lying in wait in a ship called ‘ la 
 Cruxeshergh ’ of Sluys {de Exchtsis) attacked the said Richard’s ship called 
 ‘ le Welifare' of Y’armouth, laden with wine and other goods, on the sea 
 near Dover, on Saturday after SS. Philip and James, and slew William 
 Barfot, master of the same, and fifteen mariners in the same, and took and 
 carried away the said ship, value 150/., and wines and goods amongst other 
 goods in the same, value 131/. 105. Oc/. sterling, the king lately caused 
 inquisition to be made in this matter by the mayor and bailiffs of Dover, 
 whereby it was found that thirty-two men in a ship called ‘ Cruxesbergh ’ of 
 Sluys (</e Exclusis) coming from Flanders to Dover assaulted the said 
 Richard’s ship as above, and that seventeen of them took the ship to Scot- 
 land to the king’s enemies, and that the otlier seventeen took the rest of the 
 goods to Sluys in their ship called ‘ Cruxesbergh ’ ; whereupon the king 
 wrote to the earl to do justice to the said Richard ; to which the earl replied 
 that he had not heard of the said deed when he received the king’s letters, 
 adding that he would willingly emjuire into the matter and grievously 
 punish those who should be found guilty, and would cause his goods to be re- 
 stored to the merchant; the king now requests him to do what he has 
 promised without further delay. The king has never refused to do justice 
 in like cases to the count’s subjects complaining before the king and his 
 council, although the count may perhaps have been given to understand the 
 contrary. The king prays him to write back by the bearer what he has 
 done herein.

 used to have for the repair of the same in times past ; whereupon the king 
 ordered William de Onnesby and Robei t de Reydon to enquire into the

 held in those towns at fee-farm of the honour aforesaid by demise from a

 have from that time for the repair of the palisade and causeway timber out of 
 oak delivered by the bailiff of the honour out of the park to be felled at 
 their cost, and that they have been wont to take and dig soil in the land of

 wood unfit for timber together with the remainder of the felled trees that

 said are insufficient to enclose the park or repair the causeway because the 
 township of Kelton ought to repair 40 perches of the aforesaid palisade and 
 70 feet of the causeway, and the men of the soke of Eye ought to repair 
 54^ perches of the j)alisade and 120 feet of the causeway, and the lords of

 on that account to annul the said examination and process, he orders the

 Memorandum, that Sir William de Crekelad and Sir John de Norhamp- 
 ton, Conversi ch.aplains, and other Conversi exhibited a petition before the 
 king and his council in parliament at London, in the eighth year of his 
 reign, complaining of Sir Adam de Osgodeby, keeper of the house of the 
 Conversi, London, in this form : The said chaplains, who are charged and 
 sworn fiorn their infancy to pray for the king and his ancestors, and the 
 other Cotn-er.si of London who are houseless {desherbergez), say that whereas 
 Henry III. gave in common by his charter to all Conversi and all to be 
 convei’ted and housed the jilot where the court of the Conversi is inhabited. 
 Sir Adam de Osgodeby, their keeper, ought [to allow] them their habita- 
 tions in their said close, but that he keeps them out and harbours his clerks 
 there, and allows sti-angers and horses to be harboiired there, and that he 
 has demised some of their tenements where they might be housed to strangers 
 for the term of three lives by their common seal without their assent, to the 
 prejudice of the king, to whom the tenements ought to revert after their 
 day ; wherefore they pray that such demises shall be annulled, and that tliey 
 may have their harbourments in their said close, because if they fall ill or 
 become enfeebled they have no place where they may dwell or have refuge 
 or easement of right except in the common close specially built for them 
 and to be inhabitated solely by them, and as the matins and masses of the 
 said chaplains, of the alms of the kings their founders, are worth as much as 
 the pater nosters of laymen. French. 
 
 Which petition having been exhibited, it was decided by the council that 
 it should be delivered to the chancellor as principal keeper of all the hospitals 
 or almshouses founded of the king’s alms, so that he might do what he should, 
 think fit concerning it. Having inspected the petition, the chancellor sent 
 Robert de Bardelby and Robert de Askeby, clerks of the chancery, to the 
 house of the Conversi to en(piire into the above allegations, and to certify 
 him concerning the same. The said Robert and Robert, having called 
 before them the aforesaid parties on Monday the feast of St. Tiburtius and 
 Valerian, in the chapel of the Conversi, made inquisition by all the Conversi 
 dwelling in the house and others then j)resent ; whereby it was found, by 
 the oath of the Conversi, that the said William never had a fixed residence 
 within the house, but that he had access to the house in the time of Sir 
 Henry le Aumener, late keeper of the same, sometimes passing the night in 
 the house, but that the said keeper prohibited him from dwelling there or 
 being received therein, and deprived him of his wages, on account of divers 
 crimes whereof he defamed the whole community of the Conversi then con- 
 versant in the house, and whereof he accused them by letters to the keeper, 
 all the Conversi having afterwards purged themselves of the same before the 
 keeper. They also say that Adam, the present keeper, allowed the said 
 William his wages of his special grace against the will and assent of the 
 Conversi. They say that he is not fit to dwell within the house, and that 
 they will not permit this in any wise, and, in answer to the (piestion 
 wliether he was fit to receive his wages, they say that this depends upon the 
 grace of the keeper. As to the two tenements, they say that they weiai

 as they are demised at a higher ferm than before, and the tenants have to do 
 necessary repairs, which would have to be done at the cost of the house 
 if they were not so demised. Nothing is done against the said John, 
 because he did not sue. And the inquisitors assigned to William the 
 morrow as day before the chancellor to hear and receive answer and 
 judgment. Afterwards the chancellor decided that William should have 
 nothing of the contents of his petition, but that he should be remitted to 
 his keeper to be castigated for his false complaint according to the keeper’s 
 discretion. And the chancellor ordered that the present memorandum 
 should be enrolled in the rolls of chancery, and should be placed upon the 
 files amongst the memoranda of the chancery.

 Robert de Assheby his son and Margaret, daughter of Roger Hymayns, 
 thereof in free marriage ; after whose death Joan, daughter of the said 
 Margaret and wife of the aforesaid Alan, entered the premises, which the 
 escheator took into the king’s hands as escheat by the felony committed by 
 the said William ; whereupon, because it appeared by the rolls of chancery 
 of Henry III., that the said king pardoned one William son of William of 
 Great Assheby the suit of his peace for the death of Hugh le Rus, pi’ovided 
 that he stood to right if any one should speak against him, and gi’anted that 
 he should retain all his lands except the lands and fees in Cateby and Assheby 
 Magna granted by the said king to Edmund his son and to Thomas de 
 Tholouse, the king commanded the said escheator to make inquisition, in 
 the presence of Alan and Joan, whether the said William son of William of 
 Great Assheby was the same ns the William of whom the escheator made 
 mention in his return as above, and if so, whether he died in the said king’s 
 peace, and whether John his brother entered the lands in Theddyngworth

 duly observed, in part satisfaction of 100/. of 278/. due to them W the 
 said trespass, and that it was delivered to the merchants long before receipt

 sonant with reason that what has been terminated by reasonable and due 
 process and executed should be cancelled or revoked to the injury of 
 another, and as it appears to the king that the goods arrested at Stoubergh 
 belong to the burgesses and merehants of Ipswich and ought not to be

 filling an office in the monastery, dissipated the goods of the monastery in 
 divers ways, giving them to his relations contrary to his profession, and 
 that, because he has been deprived of his office, he now raises contentions 
 and schisms amongst the brethren, the king desiring to preserve the quiet 
 of that church on account of the devotion to it of his progenitors, the foun- 
 ders thereof, especially to St. Thomas the Martyr, and because he and his

 Robert in court Christian, and that they should not hold that plea in court 
 Christian until it should be decided in the king’s court to which of them the

 that an Englishman convicted of the death of an Englishman, larceny, arson, 
 or robbery attaining or exceeding the value of \2\d., should suffer death ; 
 that an Irishman convicted of the death of an Engli.shman or arson should 
 suffer the like punishment, but that an Irishman convicted of larceny or 
 robbery from an Englishman or an Irishman is usually left to be redeemed at 
 the will of his judge or to be condemned to death ; by which law, when it was 
 fully observed, the English people there grew and multiplied, and extended 
 the boundaries of the church ; but that afterwards the justices of those parts 
 caused and permitted persons indicted of felonies to be redeemed for small 
 ransoms, and sometimes for nothing, to wit taking for the slaying of an 
 Englishman, robbery, and larceny 100/., or 100[s.], 40[s.J, or 20s. ; by reason 
 whereof malefactors have been encouraged to commit homicides, robberies,

 dise have fallen away in many places, so that land is much destroyed by 
 English and Irish felons, who do not fear committing homicides, arsons, 
 larcenies, and robberies, under the hope of obtaining such pardons, and

 cerning them in judgment, lest they should be slain or destroyed on account 
 of their verdict by the said felons liberated by such ransom, and the people, 
 wishing to live under the king’s peace and law, desert places where they 
 have been wont to dwell and leave them to the said felons.

 confirmed by king Henry III., to buy and sell in gross all manner of 
 merchandise in that town freely and without hindrance, and to have 
 measures and scales {stateras) and weights, nevertheless William Martyn, 
 late justice of South Wales, by virtue of an ordinance of the late king’s 
 time that no one in parts adjacent to the king’s boroughs in Wales should 
 buy or sell any merchandise in gross by whatsoever name known within 
 five leagues (leucnrnf/i) of the said boroughs, except within the boroughs, 
 prohibited, at the suit of the burgesses of New Kermerdyn, the prior and

 who propounded their challenges in the inquisition, that Robert, prior of 
 Kermerdyn, and his predecessors and their men and tenants enjoyed the 
 above liberties from the time of the charter and confirmation and before the 
 construction of the new town and before the ordinance, until they were 
 hindered by Walter Haclut, justice, at the suit of the burgesses of the new 
 town of Kermerdyn, when the prior jirocured a writ directed to Walter, by 
 virtue whereof he and his tenants exercised the privilege as before ; and 
 that they were in like manner impeded by Roger de Mortuo Mari, late 
 justice of Wales, and afterwards by the said William, by pretext of the said

 To the bailiff of Holdernessc. AYhereas dissension has arisen between 
 certain of the bonds (f/c bondis) of the manor of Brustwyk by reason of the 
 contrariety of two customs in tliat manor, to wit certain of them asserting 
 the custom to be that when any tenant in bondage dies, his wife, if she 
 survive, ought to hold her husband’s tenements in bondage for her lifetime 
 without paying any fine or relief for the tenements after her husband’s death, 
 and if she take a second husband, then the second husband ought to make 
 fine for entry and for marrying the "widow, and that the second husband 
 ought to hold the tenements in bondage for all Ids life, although his wife die 
 before him ; other of the bonds alleging, on tlie contrary, that there is no 
 such custom there, but another custom that after the death of the woman 
 thus married to a second husband, the heirs of her first husband ought to 
 be admitted to make fine for their ancestors’ tenements, and that the second 
 husband ought to be amoved from such tenements after his wife’s death, 
 and the tenements ought to be delivered to the heirs of the first husband 
 by such fine ; the king appointed John de Sutton, Robert le Conestable of 
 Hohlernesse, and Waller de Goushill, bailiff of the aforesaid manor, or two 
 of them, to enquire concerning tlie customs by the oaths of the freemen and 
 bonds of that manor ;ind of all the towns pertaining to it, in the [iresence

 of those whom the matter concerns ; by which inquisition it was found that 
 in the times of the earls of Albemarle and lords of Holdernesse, and in 
 times past a custom was always used in the manor and the towns pertaining; 
 to it that Avhen a tenant in bondage died, his wife, if she survived, should 
 hold for life her husband’s tenements in bondage without paying any line 
 or relief after her husband’s death, and if she took a second husband, and 
 afterwards died, the heirs of her first husband ought to be admitted to make 
 fine for their ancestors’ tenement, and that the second husband ought to 
 be amoved from the tenements after his wife’s death ; and afterwards, 
 because certain of the bonds and second husbands appeared before the king 
 and asserted that they have long held tlieir tenements in the manor in 
 bondage by the other custom, and that there are more in the manor who 
 hold by the same custom as they do than hold by the custom found by the 
 above inquisition, the king, wishing to be certified what number of bonds 
 hold by one custom and what by the other, and if the second husbands 
 holding the first husband’s tenements after the death of their wives hold 
 them * by default or negligence of the heirs of the first husband, to wit for 
 tlie reason that the heirs were unable to do the services thei’cfor due, or 
 that they did not demand the land after the wives’ deaths, or otherwise, 
 and if such heirs being so unable or negligent ought to be afterwards 
 admitted to make fine for the tenements held by the second husbands through 
 their default or negligence, or if the second husbands ought to hold them 
 for life, and how many second husbands thus hold by default or negligence 
 of the heirs, ordered the aforesaid John, Robert, and Walter to enquire 
 concerning these points ; by which inquisition it was found that there are 
 more in the manor holding by the custom found by the first inquisition than 
 by the other, and that the heirs of the first husbands ought to be admitted 
 to make fine for their ancestors’ tenements after the death of the wives so 
 married to second husbands, if they came soon (recentcr) after the 
 death of the wives, and if they were able to do tlie services, otherwise they 
 were not to be admitted to make fine ; tiie king, considering by himself and 
 his council that it is more reasonable and expedient that the custom for the 
 heirs of the first husband should be observed at his will, orders the bailiff 
 to observe that custom henceforth in the manor, unless ordered otherwise 
 by the king. By C.

 Isle of Thanet, and carried her and her cargo away, the king ordered the 
 sheriff of Kent to enquire by the oath of natives ami aliens concerning the 
 capture of the same; by which inquisition it was found that John Crabbe

 from demanding any issues from James de Cusancia, whom the prior of 
 Lewes has ajipointed [irior of Priterwelle, by reason of the late voidance of 
 the priory, as James complains that he is doing, because it appears by the 
 rolls of the late king’s chancery that he ordered Walter de Gloucestre, then 
 escheator this side Trent, not to molest John de Monte Martini, then prior, 
 by reason of any issues of the jiriory during the late voidance, as it was 
 found by inquisition taken by Walter that upon each voidance of the priory 
 the late king’s escheator was wont to go to the priory, and to take a seisin 
 there in the name of the king’s lordshi[), and to depute a gatekeeper at the 
 priory gate for the indemnity of the convent, and that the escheator and 
 gatekeeper left the priory without taking anything so soon as the prior elect 
 brought the king’s letters for his admission to the escheator, and because 
 it was found by the rolls of the exchequer that nothing had been answered 
 to him or his progenitors for any issues of the priory upon any voidance.

 was informed by the executors that Henry de Percy held the said manor in 
 his lifetime by knight service as of the aforesaid castle, which is now in the 
 king’s hands on account of the minority of tlie earl’s heir, and that the earl 
 entered the manor after Henry’s death, because his heir was under age, and 
 assigned a third thereof in dower to Eleanor, late the wife of Henry, and 
 held the other two parts in name of wardship up to his death, and that John 
 le Ireys, to whom the king, after the earl’s death, committed the custody of 
 the castle and lands pertaining to it, the custody thereof having come to the 
 king’s hands on account of the minority of the earl’s heir, seised the s.' id 
 two parts into the king’s hands as if the earl had died seised thereof in his 
 demesne as of fee, and retained it all the time during which he had the 
 custody of the castle, and the present keeper detains the same from the 
 executors in like manner; whereupon the king ordered the present keeper 
 to cause inquisition to be made concerning the above ; by which the king 
 learns that Henry de Percy held the manor of the earl as of the castle 
 aforesaid by the service of a third of a knight’s fee and by homage, and by 
 doing suit of the earl’s court of Gaynesford, and that the earl entered the 
 manor in the name of custody after Henry’s death on account of the minority 
 of his heir, and that he assigned a third thereof to the aforesaid Eleanor in 
 dower, and that he held the other two parts for a year and a half before his 
 death in name of wardship, and that he died seised thereof in form afore- 
 said ; and that after his death the aforesaid John, who had the custody of 
 the castle, unjustly seised the said two parts into the king’s hands, together 
 with the other lands of the earl, and detained them from the executors all 
 the time during which he hiid the custody, to wit from Thursday after the 
 Assumption, in the ninth year of the king’s reign, until the octaves of 
 St. Marlin next following, and that William Druvell, then the king’s 
 receiver of the aforesaid castle, received the issues of the two parts for that 
 Martinmas term to the value of 10/., and that after John left the custody, 
 John de Castro, keeper of the same castle, likewise detained the two parts 
 from the executors from the said octaves until Christmas following, but that 
 he received nothing therefrom during that time, and that the present keeper 
 of the castle still detains the two parts, and that he has received the issues 
 thereof for his time, to wit from Christmiis aforesaid until now, to the value 
 of 30/., and that the two parts are worth 20/. yearly in all issues.

 de Norfolk, the abbot’s fellow canons, brother Richard de Elynton, lay

 from Martinmas last ; at which day he returned that he had been to Bristol 
 to arrest the above-named persons, and that he found them in the guildhall 
 of Bristol, and that they and Robert de Wyldemersh, who called himself 
 bailiff of that town, and the community of the town would not permit the 
 attachment to be made, but hindered it wholly ; Avherefore the king ordered 
 the sheriff not to omit on account of the liberty of that town, or any other 
 liberty of his county, to arrest the above-named [)ersons and the aforesaid 
 Richard de Wildemersh and all others of the community who hindered him 
 as above stated, and to have their bodies before the king in the octaves of 
 the Holy Trinity last past, taking with him for this purpose the posse of his 
 county; to which the sheriff returned that he went in person to Bristol, 
 and that he caused all the community of the same to be assembled in the 
 guildhall, and that, after he had explained the tenor of the king’s order 
 to them, they unanimously answered that they would not permit the 
 aforesaid John le Taverner or Robert de Wyldemersh or any other person 
 of that town to be attached or taken away thence, and they hindered the 
 sheriff from executing the king’s order by force and arms ; whereupon the 
 sheriff attached by word and imposition of hands Henry le Shipman and 
 many others of that town who hindered him, but the persons so attached 
 broke the attachment by force and arms; wherefore the sheriff, taking with 
 him a great posse of the county, afterwards went to tiie town to execute 
 the king’s order, .and he found the gates of the town closed iigainst him, 
 and the whole community raised in war against the king, having associated 
 with them a multitude of malefactors from Bayonne and Wales, and that

 tlie community drained {cissewiaverunl') and wholly dried up the ditch of 
 the king’s castle there, and broke and destroyed the king’s mill of the 
 castle, and made a ditch in that town before the castle gate of the breadth 
 and dei)th of 24 feet, and strengthened the ditch with a strong peel {jjehi), 
 and constructed there and elsewhere in the city bretasches {bretaddu), 
 chains, springalds {sj)rinyalda), and other engines to attack and approach 
 the castle, so that no person in the castle could leave the castle towards the 
 town in any way, retsiining the town against the king and preparing other 
 things in expi-ess rebellion against him with banners raised ; the king, 
 wishing to have further information concerning these actions and to recall 
 the community to obedience l)y gentle means, has caused Aymer de 
 Valencia, earl of Pembroke, William Inge, John de Insula, and John do 
 IMutford to be sent to Bristol to inform themselves fully concerning the 
 premises, and to induce the community to obey the king as they should do, 
 and, if the community should remain in rebellion, to ordain, in the king’s 
 name and by his authority, ways and means to punish the comnninity, as 
 contained in the king’s letters psitent to the aforesaid William and John de 
 Insula and .John de Mutford; and although they and the earl went to that 
 town and endeavoured to induce the community to obey the king by gentle 
 ways and means offered by them to the community on the king’s belialf, the 
 community wholly refused to obey the king in the premises ; whereupon 
 the earl, with the counsel of the said William and John de Insula, according 
 to the power granted to them by the aforesaid letters, enjoined the sheriff 
 of Somerset to cause proclamation to be made forbidding any one to com- 
 municate with any of the said community, or to sell, lend, or minister to 
 them victuals or other necessaries, and to arrest any whom he should find 
 infringing this prohibition, as the earl has signified to the king by his letters, 
 and the s.aid William and John de Insula have explained to the king by 
 word of mouth upon their return ; the king, approving the action of the

 and others who have emends of the assize of ale to cause this assize of ale 
 to be kept in their liberties, the king having ordained by his council that 
 ale shall be sold at the above rates, because he understood, from the com- 
 plaints of the people and by petition exhibited before the council, that 
 brewers brew and sell ale too deafly at their pleasure, haviitg no respect to 
 the old assize of ale, and that both wheat and barley, which might be re- 
 served for bread and of which there has been a less supply than usual this 
 last two years on account of bad seasons, are converted into malt to such a 
 degree that, unless a remedy be provided, a great part of the lower and 
 poor people will shortly suffer from famine, and as he considered that in 
 London, where there is a greater concourse of people than anywhere else 
 in the realm, the assize of ale, to wit a gallon of the best ale for \\d., and a 
 gallon of the weaker for Ir/., is ordered to be observed and that it might

 with the same, and the masters, echevijis, and bailiffs arrested the honey and 
 wine without reasonable cause, and detained the same for some lime, the 
 king requested them to restore the honey and wine to the said Thomas; and 
 afterwards, because he was given to understand that Luke and James sus- 
 tained damage to the amount of 240/. sterling by reason of the arrest and 
 detention of their goods, the king requested the masters, echevins, and 
 bailiffs to cause suitable amends to be made to the said Luke and James for 
 such damages ; to which they replied that lately, on account of many 
 grievous damages inflicted by the Flemings upon the men of Brabant and of 
 that town, and also on account of a general prohibition of any one taking 
 any goods or victuals to Flanders, they arrested tlie aforesaid wine and 
 honey when they were found among certain goods of tlie men of Flanders 
 arrested by certain men of their parts, and that they detained the honey 
 and wine aforesaid until they received the king’s letter from the said mer- 
 chants, and that they then caused the honey and wine to be restored, taking 
 oatli and security from the attorney of the said merchants that he wonld cause 
 the honey and wine to be taken elsewhere in Brabant and not to Flanders, 
 the attorney having made them a good acquittance of the aforesaid arrest, 
 adding in their letter that, after the delivery, the said attorney went to Ghent 
 in the middle of Flanders with the honey and wine, and there sold the same, 
 contrary to his oath and security and the aforesaid prohibition, wherefore 
 they pra 3 'ed the king to hold them excused concerning the premises ; the 
 king nevertheless requests them to cause amends to be made to Luke and 
 James according to his former request, as the merchants have shewn in the 
 king’s court that the wine and honey were taken to Andwerp in Brabant 
 and there sold, and it is not reasonable that Luke and .lames should incur 
 such damages by reason of the aforesaid actpiittance, whicli was probably 
 made through fear. They are to certify the king by the bearer of their 
 proceedings.

 the late king of France to aid the men of the king of England and to 
 aggrieve his enemies, and that he seized the aforesaid ship and her cargo 
 because he was given to understand that certain great ships laden with corn 
 and other victuals were coming to Flanders and because the aforesaid ship 
 on another occasion went to the land of the f^aracens ; as the merchants 
 and mariners of the said ship were under the king’s protection and as they 
 began to unload openly the corn and victuals in a place cjdlcd ‘ Lcs Dunes’ 
 within the port of Sandwich, whence Berengar carried her and her cargo 
 away, including 500 quarters of wheat provided for the munition of the

 of France that merchants coming to the realm under the king’s protection 
 should be aggrieved by his men, the king again requested Berengar to cause

 sufficient mainprise for their appearance before John de Bello Carapo of

 brethren of St. Mary de Areno in the town of Westminster, as it appears 
 by inquisition taken by John de Mutford and the aforesaid John, specially 
 appointed by the king for this purpose, that the aforesaid house was in the 
 time of Henry III. in the seisin of divers tenants there dwelling, who 
 held it of Richard de Ware, then abbot of Westminster, as of the right of 
 the church of St. Peter’s Westminster, by fealty and the service of 3s. 
 yearly, and that the said tenants and all the residents there held the 
 house aforesaid of the abbot and his predecessors by the said services from 
 time out of mind, and that afterwards, in the 51st year of the said king’s 
 reign, one William Arnaud, a knight of the said king’s, acquired the house 
 from the aforesaid tenants, and that he gave it, by the said king’s licence, 
 to the aforesaid prior and brethren, and that the aforesaid abbot and his 
 successors were always seised from the time of his grant of the aforesaid 
 fealty and service of 3s. yearly as chief lords of that fee from the prior 
 and his successors from the said house, until the eve of the Assumption last, 
 when Hugh de Ebor[aco], late brother of the order, died there, after whose 
 death the king caused the house to be taken into his hands, and that one 
 Reginald le Barber and Isolda his wife, tenants of a part of it, before the 
 aforesaid William acquired it, charged their part with 4s. of rent sec, to be paid 
 yearly to Walter, then bishop of Durham, and his successors, which bishop 
 and his successors have hitherto always been seised of that rent until the 
 death of the aforesaid brother Hugh, and that a certain tenant, whose name 
 is unknown, charged another part of the house, before the aforesaid William 
 acquired it, with 3s. of rent sec, to be paid to the prioress and nuns of 
 Keleburn, wherein his daughter was made a nun, which prioress aiul her 
 successors were always seised of that rent until the death of the aforesaid 
 brother Hugh, and that William Arnaud, after he acquired the house, did 
 not yield it into the hands of Hemy Hi., but that he gave it to the prior 
 and brethren by the licence and will of the said king, and that the house is 
 not charged with any other rent or service to any other lord ; wherefore 
 William, abbot of Westminster, chief lord of that fee, has prayed the king 
 to have the house aforesaid delivered to him as the right of his church and 
 as his escheat, because the brethren of the said order have ceased by death. 
 
 Oct. 26. To the treasurer and barons of the e.xchequer. Order to make account 
 Westminster, with Hugh le Despenser the elder from the day when he received the custody 
 of a moiety of the manor of Wynterburn near Neweburi, and for so long as be 
 shall have the custody thereof, which the king granted to him during the 
 minority of the heir of Joan de Grey, and to cause recompense to be made 
 to him out of other wardships or marriages for 445. yearly paid and to be 
 paid by him to Geoffrey de Boxore, which the king has ordered him to pay 
 because it was found by inquisition taken by Master John Walewayn, 
 escheator this side Trent, that the said Geoffrey used to receive and ought 
 to receive this sum for life from the .said manor by the feoffment of Margery 
 de Bolehuth, late lady of the same manor, and that he was seised thereof in 
 her time and in the time of the aforesaid Joan, afterwards lady of the 
 manor, until the manor was taken into the king’s hands upon Joan’s death 
 on account of her heir’s minority, and that Geoffrey had not received the 
 rent since that time, by which inquisition it appears that the manor is held 
 of Gilbert de Elsefeld by the service of a quarter of a knight’s fee : it 
 appearing by the certificate of the treasurer and barons that tlm custody of 
 a moiety of the manor was delivered to Hugh, amongst other custodies, in 
 part satisfaction of 2,086/. 25. 5d. due to him from the king, as of the value 
 of 50/., to have during the minority of the heir without rendering anything

 of Brehull, Borstall, and Edyngrave pertaining thereto, which church the 
 empress Matilda, sometime queen of England, gave to that house hy 
 charter, in whose possession it continued for a long time, which church 
 William son of Richard, late a clerk of Henry III., occupied in a time of 
 voidance of the priory, and which is still detained from the prior, the justices 
 having made this consideration because brother Walter de Sutton, a fellow 
 canon of the prior and his attorney in this behalf, who sued against William 
 de Ayremynne, keeper of the rolls of chancery, to have scrutiny of the said 
 rolls, did not appear before the king on a certain day to prosecute the afore- 
 said petition, the king having sent the petition to William Inge and his 
 fellows, then justices to hold pleas before him, whom he ordered to examine 
 the same and to bring the matter to a final issue, provided that they did not 
 proceed to render judgment therein before they had certified the king 
 concerning the matter ; under which pretext the said Henry and his fellows 
 ordered the rolls of chancery of Henry III. and other the king’s progenitors 
 to be searched and the memoranda therein concerning this matter to be sent 
 to the king ; the king now learning from the prior that the said Henry and 
 his fellows considered, pending the search, that he should take nothing by 
 his petition, as above stated. They are ordered to proceed in the said matter, 
 notwithstanding their aforesaid consideration, and to bring the matter

 Ailbrighton taken into the king’s hands upon the death of John Tropyn,

 voyage from Scotland to Flanders on the sea coast near Blakeneye, although 
 it appears by inquisition taken by him by the king’s order that the mer- 
 chants and mariners of the same are pirates, robbers, and homicides, and it 
 appears by the letters of the coket touching certain goods in the ship that 
 certain of the goods specified therein were loaded at Aberden among the 
 Scotch rebels, so that the king could aggrieve the merchants and mariners 
 in their bodies and goods, as R. count of Flanders has besought the king 
 for the said merchants, the king issuing this order on that account and in 
 order to cherish peace and tranquillity, as wmll as for the common advantage

 thence, as it aj)pears by inqui.sition taken by the escheator that it would not 
 be to the damage of the king or any one else if he granted that Clement 
 might hold the premises for life, and that he ought to pay 2()i'. yearly to 
 John and his heirs for the same, and that they are not worth more than 
 that sum, so that if John died before Clement, leaving an heir in the king’s

 and also ordered Master John Walewayn, escheator this side Trent, to 
 restore what was in his hands belonging to the bishopric, as the king was

 taken into the king’s hands after the death of Richard, the late bishop, 
 amongst other temporalities of the bishopric, as pertaining to the bishop’s 
 manor of Bishops Castle, and that thereupon the aforesaid Hugh occupied 
 the said towns, and that he still occupies them, and does not permit the 
 escheator or his sub-escheator in those parts to intermeddle with the said 
 towns ; whereupon the king caused an inquisition to be made concerning 
 the late bishop’s estate therein ; whereby it was found that the late bishop 
 died seised of the said three towns as of the right of his church of 
 St. Ethelbert, Hereford, and in no other wise, and that he and all his 
 predecessors were seised thereof from time out of mind as of the right of

 under a certain form, and because Matilda was then pregnant, believing 
 tliat she would bear a child, and that the custody of the earl’s lands would 
 long leinain in his hands ; whereupon he assigned to her in recompeuce 
 the manor of Honeden, co. Suffolk, and the advowson of the church of

 tion to the fact that the abbey of Westminster and all its cells and priories 
 are subjected only to the Roman court, and are from old time free and 
 by apostolic privileges exempt from all ordinary episcopal jurisdiction, 
 Godfrey, late bishop of Worcester, having confessed, for himself and his 
 successors, that the aforesaid priory and the monks thereof are exempt 
 from all jurisdiction of the bishop and of the ordinary, and from making 
 obedience to the bisliop, and that they ought to be subjected to the abbot 
 and convent of Westminster, excepting the parish churches, portions and 
 ecclesiastical pensions appropriated to the priory, the said Godfrey having 
 considered the privileges of divers pontiffs of Rome made to the said abbot 
 and convent after he had endeavoured to exercise ordinary jurisdiction in 
 the aforesaid cell of Malvern : by reason of which prohibition the prior of 
 Worcester superseded the execution of the office of spiritualities then 
 incumbent upon him ; wherefore he prayed tlie king to cause a remedy 
 to be exhibited to him, in response to which the king makes this order, 
 being unwilling that what pertains to ecclesiastical jurisdiction should be

 inquisition taken by the sheriff of Kent that John Crabbe and other 
 malefactors of the count’s land took by force a ship called ‘ bona navis de 
 la Strode,' whereof John Sprynger was master, together with the chests, 
 beds, and other small things of the said John, which were valued by the 
 jurors of the itiquisition at 210 marks sterling, at Les Dunes on the sea 
 coast near the Isle of Thanet, whilst on her voyage to London, and carried 
 the same away to Flanders, the king requested the count to cause resti- 
 tution or satisfaction for the above to be made to the said John Sprynger ; 
 and the count replied that he was ignorant of the premises, .as he was not 
 informed of the deed aforesaid or of the names of those who committed it, 
 adding that he would punish the culprits [if] found within places subject 
 to his jurisdiction ; at which reply the king is astonished, because John 
 Crabbe, the principal culprit, is well-known to be of the count’s land of 
 Flanders, and dwells therein when he wills, and it is moreover testified 
 before the king that in the aforesaid ship there were wines of certain of the 
 king’s merchants of Gascony, which were also taken and cjirried away by 
 the said malefactors, and which came to the count’s profit (commodum'), 
 and that the count gave the ship to the lord of Meldyngham : wherefore 
 the king requests him to cause restitution or satisfaction to be made 
 without further delay to the said John Springer, together with compensa- 
 tion for his damages, lest it behove the king to provide him with another 
 remedy. He is requested to write back by the bearer what he shall have 
 caused to be done in response to this request.

 that they caused a ship of theirs to be laden with fish, lead, oil, and other 
 goods and wares bought at Lenne to the value of 300/., in order to bring 
 the same to London, and that certain malefactors of Flanders assaulted 
 with force and arms the men in the said ship on the sea-coast near 
 Crowemere, co. Norfolk, and took the goods aforesaid, and divided the 
 same amongst them, and carried them to Flanders, as appears by the letters 
 testimonial of the mayor and community of the city of London under their 
 common seal, the king requested the count to cause satisfaction or 
 restitution therefor to be made to the aforesaid merchants ; to which 
 the count I'eplied that he was ignorant of the premises as he was not 
 informed of the deed aforesaid nor of the names of those who committed it, 
 adding that he would punish the culprits if found within places subject to 
 his jurisdiction ; and now, in addition to the testimony of the mayor and 
 community aforesaid, it is testified before the kinsr that the trespass was 
 committed at the aforesaid place by malefactors of the count’s land, and 
 that the malefactors, shortly before the perpetration of this trespass, lay 
 near the king’s land {ad terratn nostram se ponentes), and committed 
 homicides there, and afterwards perpetrated the above trespass, the men of 
 those parts standing and seeing them, and having full knowledge that they 
 were from the count’s power, and the goods aforesaid were seen and 
 recognised by merchants of this realm in the hands of the said malefactors 
 at Le Since within the count’s power ; wherefore the king requests the 
 count to cause restitution or satisfaction to be made without delay to the 
 said merchants, together with compensation for their damages, lest it 
 behove the king to provide them with another remedy. He is requested to 
 write back, etc., as above.

 bailiff of that town, to be kept until he had satisfied Henry for the said 
 debt, the said Gerard nevertheless allowed John to go from his custody

 writs of precept ordering the above payments, w^hich the said writ of

 6 October, in the 8th year of his reign, to Gilbert Haukyn, clerk, during 
 pleasure, receiving the same wages as others had been wont to have for 
 that office, when the king ordered the collectors of the custom in that town 
 to deliver the said office to Gilbert with all things pertaining thereto, and 
 liaving afterwards, on IG December, in the 9th year, upon Gilbert’s com- 
 plaint that the collectors delayed paying him the wages due for the office, 
 ordered the collectors to pay Gilbert the arrears of the wages from 
 6 October aforesaid at the same rate as Avas usually paid to others for that 
 office, and to continue to pay the same. If they cannot find from their

 the admiral of Caleys and certain armed men of his company in ships 
 attacked the ship on her voyage to Brabant on the sea coast in the Isle of 
 Thanet, within this realm, and upon the men in the ship flying for fear 
 Avith her to land and carrying uAvay Avith them the sail and rudder 
 {gubernaculum) of the ship to the town of Jlergate, in the said Isle, in 
 order to save the ship and cargo, the admiral and his men Areiit to that 
 town and caused the sail and rudder to be carried back to the ship, and 
 afterwards took the ship and cargo whitlier they liked, detaining the same 
 from the merchants and mariner aforesaid to their damage of 2,0U0 marks ; 
 which proceedings were so well knoAvn in those parts that they could not 
 be concealed by any tergiversation, and the king has in addition been 
 assured concerning the same by the mayor, aldermen, and community of 
 the city of London, Avho are fully informed concerning the same ; Avhere- 
 upou the king frequently recpiested W. de Castellion, then constable of 
 France, to cause restitution or compensation to be made to the merchants 
 and mariner aforesaid, together Avith amends for their damages, as pertained 
 to him in this behalf by reason of the superior custody over the admiral 
 and his felloAvs committed to him by L[ouis], king of France and Navarre; 
 and at length the constable, having called the parlies before him, decreed 
 . that the ship and her cargo should be restored, Avliich stmtence he ilid not 
 put into execution ; wherefore the king again requested him to cause 
 satisfaction to be made for the same, and the constable thereupon certified 
 Philip, the present king of France and Navarre, then regent of France, of 
 the manner and form of his decree, requesting him to excuse him to the 
 •king of England concerning the premises ; Avhereupon the regent Avrote the 
 king of England that he had caused ansAver to be made to the merchants 
 aforesaid that they should come or send to him in the octaves of Christmas 
 then ensuing, when he would cause them to be satisfied ; to which letters 
 the king replied, Philip having meaiiAvliile been croAvned king of Fiance, 
 praying him to fulfil Avhat he had promised in the aforesaid octaves ; ami 
 Philip, assigning many days to the merchants’ attorney in this behalf, 
 finally did nothing in the matter, but failed altogether to do them justice, 
 as the mayor, aldermen, and community of the said city luwe certified the 
 king by their letters patent ; whereupon the king, although he might have 
 provided the merchants with a remedy in this realm in consequence of these 
 proceedings, again wrote to the king of France to cause satisfaction to be 
 made to the merchants; Avhich letters the king of France received, and he 
 promised, in the presence of John Abel, knight, and Richard de Burton, 
 clerk, the king’s envoys sent to him for other affairs, to cause satisfaction 
 to be made to the merchants, but finally did nothing in the matter, as the 
 envoys explained to the king by Avord of mouth upon their return : where- 
 fore the king orders the sheriffs to arrest goods of the men and merchants of 
 the king of France within the city to the value of 600/., and to cause them 
 to be kept safely until the said merchants have been satisfied for that sum

 To Thomas, earl of Lancastei'. Order forbidding his attempting any- 
 tliing in breach of the king’s peace in the matter of the lands and fees of 
 John de Warenna, earl of Surrey, in Bromf'eld and lal in Wales, as the

 homages, fealties, and other services of the said John’s tenants in those 
 lands. 
 
 To iMaster John Walewayn, escheator this side Trent. Order to deliver

 To the sheriff of Sussex. Order to cause a coroner for that county to be 
 elected in place of Richard atte Mersh, whom the king has caused to be

 To the sheriffs of London. Whereas Adam Hunteman, citizen of Lon- 
 don, lately caused 13 scrplers of wool to be taken frem England to St. 
 Omer in order to make his profit thereof, John de Fenles caused the wool 
 to be taken from him by cert.ain of his ministers near the town of Gines; 
 wherefore the king frerpiently requested the said .Tohn to cause restitution 
 or satisfaction to be made to Adam and to satisfy him for his damages, lest 
 it should behove the king to provide Adam with another remedy; the said 
 John, although Adam delivered the king’s letters to him and diligently 
 sought for justice, did nothing in the matter, as appears by letters patent 
 under the seal of the community of the city of London : wherefore the king 
 orders the sheriffs to arrest goods of men and merchants of the dominion 
 and power of the said John to the value of the wool aforesaid, and to keep 
 the .same safely until further orders, certifying the king of their proceedings 
 herein. By C.

 for the king’s u.se from Anthony Novel and Currethinus Novel, merchants, 
 from their wines de Areto et Vernachio, if they come into the realm with

 fearing that Stephen would take prises from the wines as if they were 
 Gascon wines. 
 
 To the sheriff of Lancaster. Order to cause Robert de Holaiid to have 
 seisin of the manors of Ilaghe and Blakerode, as it appears by inquisition

 felony, held them of Robert, and that they have been in the king’s hands 
 for a year and a day, and that Peter de Lymesy and INIabel his wife have 
 had the king’s year, day, and wa.ste thereof, for which they ought to answer 
 to the king.

 in this behalf, because Anthony had undertaken to pay that sum to Amadeo, 
 count of Savoy, as soon as the count did fealty to the king’s envoys to the 
 pope, the king having granted that sum to the couut for the arrears of 
 200 marks yearly granted to him by the late king for his homage done to

 sell their goods therein, as they were wont to do in times past, any previous 
 proclamations or inhibitions notwithstanding, provided that when the present 
 fair is ended, they shall not at another time expose for sale, buy, or sell any 
 goods in the said fair before the day upon wliich it should begin, nor stay 
 there with their goods beyond the proper time, under the pains contained in 
 the king’s late proclamation forbidding the holding of fairs upon days earlier 
 than they ought to be held, or after the time when they ought to close, as 
 the king understands that native and other alien merchants withdraw them- 
 selves and their goods from the present Boston fair because they are 
 ignorant of the time when it ought to commence and end, on account of the 
 king’s i)roclaination forbidding merchants to expose goods for sale, or to 
 buy or sell in fairs before or after the times when the fair ought to com- 
 mence and end ; the king wishing to avoid the damage that may accrue to 
 himself and others by reason of the absence of the merchants from the said 
 fair, he being now in the northern parts, where he proposes to stay for a 
 long time, so that it will be necessary to provide divers goods at the said 
 fair for his use, the magnates and others of the northern parts having been

 the ship, the late king wrote to John, then duke of Biitanny, grandfather 
 of the present duke, requesting him to cause justice to be done to Henry, 
 and to release the master and mariners ; whereupon the duke released the 
 sailors, but failed to do justice to Henry ; wherefore the king gave orders at 
 different times to Guy Ferre and .Jolin de Hastinges, his late seneschals of 
 Gascony, that, if they found tlie aforesaid malefactors or their goods within 
 the duchy of Acquitaino, they should call before them those who ought to 
 be called and should do justice to Henry according to the custom of those 
 parts; and John de Hastinges afterwards, upon the failure of Arthur, late 
 duke of Brilanny, father of tlie present duke, to do justice to Henry, which 
 he was frequently requested to do by the aforesaid seneschals, caused 
 certain goods of men and merchants of the power of duke Arthur to be 
 arrested within the aforesaid duchy, the usual process in such cases having 
 been observed ; and the said goods were afterwards released by John, 
 bishop of J^orwich, and John de Britannia, earl of Richmond, and certain 
 others sent to the duchy by the king, whereby the execution of the aforesaid 
 arrest and Henry’s suit for damages have been much delayed without 
 reasonable cause ; the king at length, at the petition of Henry exhibited 
 before him and his council, ordered Gilbert Fecche, now seneschal of 
 Gascony, to cause justice to be done to Henry without further delay ; and 
 the seneschal has signified to the king by his letters that he has carefully 
 examined the letters and processes and proofs to>iching this matter, and that 
 it appeared clearly to him that the damages were intlicted upon Henry by 
 men of Britanny, and that the present duke of Britanny had been frequently 
 requested by his predecessors to cause the damages to be made good to Henry, 
 and that the duke had not done so, and that his men had beaten and griev- 
 ously {Ictalitcr) wounded Henry whilst prosecuting thisn)atler in Britanny ; 
 on account whereof the seneschal, having called a council of skilful persons, 
 granted and decreed that a letter of marque (marcham) sought by Henry 
 should be made against the men of Britanny and their goods until Henry 
 should be satisfied for 1,H60/. sterling, at which sum the in incipal damage of 
 Henry and the ensuing damages were taxed by the seneschal, according to 
 the [iroofs made concerning the same ; and because the seneschal has 
 written to the king that he had suspended the execution of the letter of 
 marque for a time at the request of the duke’s proctor, and that the duke and 
 his proctor endeavour to annul Henry’s process and to hinder his recovering 
 his goods and damages by wilful and undue [irocesscs in the court of 
 France and elsewhere, the king, although he might continue the letter of 
 marque without further process, rcijuests the duke to cause satisfaction to be 
 made to Henry witiiout further delay. The king greatly desires that Henry 
 should be satisfied in a friendly manner rather than that his damages should 
 be levied from non-consenting parties (a/i invitis), as is usual in such cases. 
 'I'he duke is requested to certily the king of his iiroccedings herein before 
 St. Andrew’s next by his letters and by the bearer of the presents. 
 
 Sept. 13. To R. count of Flanders. The king, whilst staying in the northern parts 
 York. of his realm, heard with regret that dissensions have arisen between the 
 barons and men of the Cinque Ports and the count’s men, and he has sent 
 W. archbishop of Canterbury and John, bishop of Ely, his treasurer, to the 
 btirons and men of the Cinque Forts to prohibit tlieir grieving or damaging 
 the count’s subjects under jiain of forfeiture; wherefore he requests the 
 count to issue a similar prohibition to his subjects ; and he further requests 
 him to send certain of his subjects to this realm with full power to treat 
 concerning the damages suffered by both sides and to reform lasting peace, as 
 the king proposes shortly to appoint certain of his subjects to enquire con- 
 cerning the aforesaid damages, and to do full and speedy justice to the 
 sufferers. Concerning the cloth, wines, and other goods whereof the

 count’s meu were despoiled by the king’s men at Crasduu’ and La Rye, as 
 contained in the count’s letters exhibited to the king by Master Jolin 
 Boerlike, clerk of the to Am of Ypres, the king will cause restitution or 
 satisfaction to be made for the same, so far as the damages are clearly proved 
 by the pi ocess had in this matter or by a new process if necessary. As the 
 king learns that his enemies the Scots are endeavouring to make con- 
 federacies with the count’s subjects, and to draw men, armour, and victuals 
 from the count’s lands in order to strengthen themselves against the king 
 and his faithful subjects, he requests the count, as he did at another time, to 
 consider the love and concord that have existed between his and the king’s 
 progenitors, which the king desires may be observed inviolably, and to enjoin 
 his subjects, under grievous forfeiture, not to aid or comfort the king’s said 
 enemies with victuals, armour, or other necessaries, or to communicate 
 with them in any way. The count is desired to write back by the bearer 
 hereof an account of his proceedings in this matter. [^Fcedera.']

 within the liberty of the bishopric of Durham, on account of wdiich 
 outrages many persons of the sheriff’s comity are, as the king learns, much

 concerning 29 serplers of wool taken and carried away from them in a 
 river between Gravelinges and Bystath by John de Fienles and his men, and 
 he wrote back that he had addressed the said John concerning this matter, 
 and John replied that he would, out of reverence for the king and love of the 
 count, satisfy the said merchants for the wool if the king would cause tlie value 
 thereof to be levied of the said John’s goods and chattels Avithin this realm 
 at fitting terms, and would cause the same to be paid to the merchants. The 
 king is gratified with this answer, but as he cannot well fulfil what is 
 contained in the answer by the count’s answer without the aforesaid John, 
 he requests the count to induce John to satisfy the merchants or their 
 attortieys for the value of the wool aforesaid, or to cause his letters patent 
 to be made in due form to them containing the value of the wool and the 
 terms of payment, wliereby the king may cause the value to be levied of 
 .Tohn’s lands and goods in England and may pay the same to the merchants. 
 If .John refuse to do so, the count is requested to cause justice to be done 
 to the merchants, as it pertains to him to do justice to those complaining of 
 such trespasses Avithin his poAver, so that it may not behove the king to 
 provide them with another remedy, lie is tlesired to write back by the

 restitution thereof to be made to Adam ; and the said .John has signified to

 of Ypres and elsewhere that the avooI belonged to certain men of St. Omer, 
 he had assigned a day to the said merchant within the quinzaine of the 
 Purification to return to him, promising liim that he Avould, out of love for 
 the king, do in tliis behalf Avhat of right ought to suffice ; for Avhich the 
 king thanks liim. The king, confiding in his promise, lias caused the said

 CALENDARS OF STATE PAPERS, &c. 
 
 [Imperial 870., cloth. Price 15s. each Volume or Part.] 
 
 As far back as the year 1800, a Committee of the House of Commons 
 recommended that Indexes and Calendars should he made to the Public 
 Records, and thirty-six years afterwards another Committee of the House 
 of Commons reiterated that recommendation in more forcible words ; but 
 it was not until the incorporation of the State Paper Office with the Public 
 Record Office that the Master of the Rolls found himself in a position to 
 take the necessary steps for carrying out the wishes of the House of 
 Commons. 
 
 On 7 December 1855, he stated to the Lords of the Treasury that 
 although “ the Records, Slate Papers, and Documents in his charge con- 
 “ stitute the most complete and perfect series of their kind in the civilized 
 “ world,” and although “ they are of the greatest value in a historical 
 “ and constitutional point of view, yet they are comparatively useless to 
 “ the public, from the want of proper Calendars and Indexes.” 
 
 Their Lordships assented to the necessity of having Calendars prepared 
 and printed, and empowered the Master of the Rolls to take such stops as 
 might be necessary for this purpose. 
 
 The following Works have been already published in this Series : — 
 
 Calendaridm Genealogicum ; for the Reigns of Henry III. and Edward I. 
 Edited hy Charles Roberts, Secretary of the Public Record Office.

THE CHRONICLES AND MEMORIALS OF GREAT 
 BRITAIN AND IRELAND DURING THE MIDDLE AGES. 
 
 [Royai, 8vo. Price 10,?. each Volume or Part.] 
 
 On 25 July 1822, the House of Commons presented an address to the 
 Crown, stating that the editions of the works of our ancient historians 
 were inconvenient and defective ; that many of their writings still 
 remained in manuscript, and, in some cases, in a single copy only. They 
 added, “that an uniform and convenient edition of the whole, published 
 “ under His Majesty’s royal sanction, would be an undertaking honour- 
 “ able to His Majesty’s reign, and conducive to the advancement of 
 “ historical and constitutional knowledge ; that the House therefore 
 “ humbly besought His Majesty, that He would be graciously pleased to 
 “ give such directions as His Majesty, in His wisdom, might think fit, 
 “ for the publication of a complete edition of the ancient historians 
 “ of this realm.” 
 
 The Master of the Rolls, being very desirous that effect should be given 
 to the resolution of the House of Commons, submitted to Her Majesty’s 
 Treasury in 1857 a plan for the publication of the ancient chronicles and 
 memorials of the United Kingdom, and it was adopted accordingly. 
 
 Of the Chronicles and Memorials, the following volumes have been 
 published. They embrace the period from the earliest time of British 
 history down to the end of the reign of Henry VII. 
 
 1. The Chronicle of England, by John Capgbave. Edited by the Rev. 
 F. C. Hingeston, M.A. 1858. 
 
 Cargrave’s Chronicle extends from the creation of the world to the year 1417. As 
 a record of the language spoken in Norfolk (being written in English), it is of considerable 
 value. 
 
 Chronicon Monastebii de Abingdon. Vols. I. and II. Edited by the 
 Rev. Joseph Stevenson, M.A., Vicar of Leighton Buzzard. 1858. 
 
 This Chronicle traces the history of the monastery from its foundation by King Ina 
 of Wessex, to the reign of Richard I. The author had access to the title deeds of the 
 house, and incorporates into his history various charters of the Saxon kings, of great im- 
 portance as illustrating not only the history of the locality but that of the kingdom. 
 
 3. Lives of Edward the Confessor. I. — La Estoire de Seint Aedward le 
 
 Rei. II. — Vita Beati Edvardi Regis et Confcssoris. III. — Vita 
 .dSduuardi Regis qui apud Westmonasterium requiescit. Edited by 
 Henry Richards Luard, M.A., Fellow and Assistant Tutor of Trinity 
 College, Cambridge. 1858. 
 
 The first is a poem in Norman French, probably written in 1245. The second is an 
 anonymous poem, written between 1440 and 1450, which is mainly valuable as a specimen of 
 the Latin poetry of the time. The third, also by an anonymous author, was apparently 
 wr itten between 1000 and 1074. 
 
 4. Monhmenta Franciscana. Vol. I. — Thomas de Eccleston de Adventu 
 
 Fratrum Minorum in Angliam. Ad® de Marisco Epistolae. Regis- 
 trum Fratrum Minorum Londonioe. Edited by J. S. Brewer, M.A., 
 Professor of English Literature, King’s College, London. Vol. II. — 
 De Adventu Minorum ; re-edited, with additions. Chronicle of the 
 Grey Friars. The ancient English version of the Rale of St. Francis. 
 Abbreviatio Statutorum, 1451, &c. Edited by Richard Howleit, 
 Barrister-at-Law. 1858, 1882. 
 
 The first volume contains original materials for the history of the settlement of the 
 order of St. Francis in England, the letters of Adam de Marisco, and other papei s. The 
 fi(!cond volume contains materials found since the first volume was published.

 History of Hector Boeco; by William Stewart. Vols. I., II., and 
 III. Edited by W. B. Turnbull, Barrister-at-Law. 1858. 
 
 This is a metrical translation of a Latin Prose Chronicle, written in the lirst halt of the 
 Ifith century. The narrative begins with the earliest legends and ends with the dearh of 
 James I. of Scotland, and the “ evil ending of the traitors that slew him.” The peculi.aritics 
 of the Scottish dialect are well illustrated in this version. 
 
 7. JoHANNis Capgraye Liber de Illustribus Henricis. Edited by the 
 
 Rev. F. C. Hingeston, M.A. 1858. 
 
 The first part relates 'only to the history of the Empire from the election of Henry I. 
 the Fowler, to the end of the reign of the Emperor Henry VI. The second part is devoted 
 to English history, from the accession of Henry I. in IlOtl, to I4Pi, which was the twenty- 
 fourth year of the reign of Henry VI. The third part contains the lives of illustrious men 
 who have borne the name of Henry in vai’ions parts of the world. 
 
 8. Hlstoria Monasterii S. Augustini Cantuariensis, by Thomas of 
 
 Elmham, formerly Mouk and Treasurer of that Foundation. Edited

 This i.s a Latin Chronicle e.xtending from the Creation to the latter part of the reign of

 carries the history of England down to the year 1 113.

 The contents of this volume are— (1) a life of Henry VIE, by his poet Laure.ate and 
 historiographer, Bernard Andre, of Toulouse, with some compositions in verse, of which he 
 is supposed to h.ave been the author; (2) the journals of Roger Machado diiring certain 
 embassies to Spain and Brittany, the first of which h.ad reference to the marriage of the 
 King’s son, Arthur, with Catharine of Arragon ; (3) two curious reports by envoys sent to

 The “ Repressor ” may be considered the earliest piece of good theological disquisition 
 of which our English prose literature can boast. The author was born about the end of tlio 
 fourteenth century, consecrated Bishop of St. Asaph in the year 14-tt, and translated to tiio 
 see of Chichester in 14.50. Ilis work is interesting chiefly because it gives a full account of

 These volumes contain the historical works of Gerald du Barry, who lived in the reigns 
 of Uenry II., Richard I., and John, ilis works are of a very miscellaneous nature, both 
 in prose and verse, and are remarkable for the anecdotes whicli they contain. 
 
 The Topngraphia llihernica (in Vol. V.) is the result of Giraldus’ two visits to Ireland, 
 the first in 1183, the second in 1185-(!, when he accompanied Prince John into that country. 
 Tlie Jixptignatlo llihernica was written about 1188, and may be regarded ratheji- as a great

 The object of this work is to publish notices of all known sources of Bi’itish history, 
 both printed and unprinted, in one continued sequence. The materials, when historical (as 
 distinguished from biographical), are arranged under the year in which the latest event is 
 recorded in the chronicle or history, and not under the period in which its author, real or 
 supposed, flom-ished. Biographies are enumerated under the .year in which the person 
 commemorated died, and not under the year in which the life was written. A brief 
 analysis of each work has been added when deserving it, in which original portions are 
 distinguished from mere compilations. A biographical sketch of the author of each piece 
 has been added, and a brief notice of such British authors as have written on historical 
 subjects.

 The “Year Books” are the earliest of our Law Reports. They contain matter not 
 only of practical utility to lawyers in the present day, but also illustrative of almost every 
 branch of history, while for certain philological purposes they hold a position absolutely 
 unique.

 Poem, De Laudibus Divinas Sapientir. Edited hy Thomas Wright, 
 M.A. 1863. 
 
 In the De Naturis Rertim are to be found what may be called the rudiments 
 of many sciences mixed up with much error and ignorance. Neckam had his own views in 
 morals, and in giving us a glimpse of them, as well as of his other opinions, he throws much 
 light upon the manners, customs, and general tone of thought prevalent in the twelftli 
 century.

 37. Magna Vita S. Hugonis Episcopi Lincolnienwis. Edited hj the Eev. 
 James E. Dimock, M.A., Eector of Baruburgh, Yorkshire. 18(i4. 
 
 This work is valuable, not only as a biography of a celebrated ecclesiastic but as the 
 work of a man, who, from personal kjjpwlcdge, gives notices of passing events, as well as of 
 individuals who were then taking active part in public affairs. 
 
 38. CllllONICLES AND MeMOIVIALS OF THE EeIGN OF ElCHAKD THE FiRST.

 of Christ Church, Canterbury; 1187 to 1199. Edited ly the Eev. 
 William Sturbs, M.A., Vicar of Navcstock, Essex, and Lambeth 
 Librarian. 1864-1865. 
 
 The authorship of the Chronicle in Vol. 1., hitherto ascribed to Geoffrey Vinesauf, is 
 now more correctly ascribed to Richard, Canon of the Holy Trinity of London. 
 
 In letters in Vol. II., written between 1187 and 1190, had their origin in a disimte which 
 arose from the attempts of Baldwin and Hubert, archbishops of Canterbury, to found a 
 college of secular canons, a project which gave great umbrage to the monks of Canterbury.

 P kAWSON Lumby, D.D., Xorrisian Professor of Divinity, Vicar of St. 
 Edward’s, Fellow of St. Catharine’s College, and late Fellow of 
 Magdalene College, Cambridge. 1865-1886. 
 
 This chronicle begins witli the creation, and is brought down to the reign of 
 Edward III. It enables us to form a very fair estimate of the knowledge of history and 
 geography which well-informed readers of the fourteentli aud fifteenth centuries possessed, 
 for it was then the standard work on general history. 
 
 The two English translations, which are printed with the original Latin, afford in- 
 teresting illustrations of the gradual change of our language, for one was made in the 
 fourteenth century, the other in the fifteenth. 
 
 42. Le Livere de Reis de Brittanie e Le Livere de Reis de Engletere. 
 Edited by tbc Rev. John Glover, M.A., Vicar of Brading, Isle of 
 Wight, formerly Librarian of Trinity College, Cambridge. 1865. 
 
 These two treaties are valuable as careful abstracts of previous historians. Some 
 various readings are given which are interesting to tlie philologist as instances of semi- 
 Saxonised Frencli. 
 
 43. Chronica Monasterii de Melsa ab anno 1150 usque ad annum 1406. 
 Vols. I., II., and III. Edited 5t/ Edward Augustus Bond, Assistant 
 Keeper of Manuscripts, and Egerton Librarian, British Museum. 
 1866-1868. 
 
 The Abbey of Meaux was a Cistercian house, and the work of its abbot is a faithful and 
 often minute record of the establishment of a religiotis community, of its progress in form- 
 ing an ample revenue, of its struggles to maintain its acMiuisitions, and of its relations to 
 the governing institutions of the country. 
 
 44. Matth/E Parisiensis IIistoria Anglorum, sive, ut vulgo dicitur, IIis-

 of British Museum. 1866-1869. 
 
 45. Liber Monasterii de Hyda : a Chronicle and Chartulary of Hyde 
 Abbey, Winchester, 455-1023. Edited by Edward Edwards. 1866. 
 
 The “Book of Hyde” is a compilation from much earlier .sources which are usuaHy 
 indicated wiVli considerable care and precision. In many cases, however, the Hyde 
 
15 
 
 Ohrouiclur appeurs to correct, to qualify, or to amplify the statements, which, in substance, 
 he adopts. 
 
 There is to be found, in the “Book of Hyde,” much information relating to the reign of 
 King Alfred which is not known to exist elsewhere. The volume contains some curious 
 specimens of Anglo-Saxon and mediaeval English. 
 
 46. Chkonicon Scotorum : a Chronicle op Irish Appairs, from the earliest 
 times to 1135 ; and Supplement, containing the Events from 1141 to 
 1150. Edited, with Translation, by William Maunsell Hennessy, 
 M.R.I.A. 1866. 
 
 47. The Chronicle op Pierre de Langtopt, in French Ver.se, prom the 
 earliest Period to the Death op Edward I. Yols. I. and II. Edited 
 by Thomas Wright, M.A. 1866-1868. 
 
 It is probable that Pierre de Langtoft was a canon of Bridlington, in Yorkshii-e, and 
 lived in the reign of Edward I., and during a portion of the reign of Edward II. This 
 chronicle is divided into three parts ; in the first, is an abridgment of Geoffrey of Mon- 
 mouth’s “ Hisforia Britonum ; ” in the second, a history of the Anglo-Saxon and Norman 
 kings, to the death of lleniylll. ; in the third, a histoi-y of the reign of Edward 1. The 
 language is a ciu'ioiis specimen of tlie French of Yorkshire. 
 
 48. The War op the Gaediiil with the Gaill, or The Invasions op 
 Ireland ry the Danes and other Norsemen. Edited, with a Trans- 
 lation, by the Rev. James Henthorn Todd, D.D., Seuior Fellow of 
 Trinity College, and Regius Professor of Hebrew in the University of 
 Dublim 1867. 
 
 The work in its iireseiit form, in the editor’s opinion, is a comparatively modern version 
 of an ancient original. The story is told after the manner of the Scandinavian Sagas. 
 
 49. Gesta Regis IIenrici Secundi Benedicti Abbatis. Chronicle of the 
 Reigns of Henry II. and Richard I., 1169-1192, known under the

 Oxford, and Lambeth Librarian. 1867.

 Edited by the Rev. W illiam Stubbs, M.A., Regius Professor of Modern 
 History, and Fellow of Oriel College, Oxford. 1868-1871. 
 
 The earlier portion, e.stending from 732 to ll-tS, appears to be a copy of a compilation 
 made in Northumbria about llltl, to which Hoveden added little. From 1148 to 1139 — a 
 very valuable i)ortion of this work— the matter is derived from another source, to which 
 Hoveden appears to have siqiplied little. F’rom 1170 to 1192 is the portion which corre- 
 sponds to some extent with the Chronicle known under the name of Benedict of Peter- 
 borough (see No. 49). From 1192 to 1201 may be said to be wholly Iloveden’s work.

 Domesday Book, or the Great Sdevet of England of William the Conqheror, 
 1086 ; fac-simile of the Part relating to each county, separately (with a 
 few exceptions of double counties). Photozincographed at the 
 Ordinance Survey Office, Southampton, by Colonel Sir Henry James, 
 E.E., P.E.S., &c., Director-General of the Ordnance Survey, under 
 the Superintendence of W. Basevi Sanders, an Assistant Eecord 
 Keeper. 35 Parts, imperial quarto and demy quarto (1861-1863), 
 boards. 
 
 Domesday Survey is in two parts or volumes. The first in folio, con- 
 tains the counties of Bedford, Berks, Bucks, Cambridge, Chester, and 
 Lancaster, Cornwall, Derby, Devon, Dorset, Gloucester, Hants, Hereford, 
 Herts, Huntingdon, Kent, Leicester and Rutland, Lincoln, Middlesex, 
 Northampton, Nottingham, Oxford, Salop, Somerset, Stafford, Surrey, 
 Sussex, Warwick, Wilts, Worcester, and York. The second volume, in 
 quarto, contains the counties of Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk. 
 
 Domesday Book was printed verbatim et literatim during the last century, 
 in consequence of an address of the House of Lords to King George III. 
 in 1767. It was not, however, commenced until 1773, and was completed 
 early in 1783. In 1860, Her Majesty’s Government with the concurrence 
 of the Master of the Rolls, determined to apply the art of iffiotozincography 
 to the production of a fac-simile of Domesday Book.

 This work forms a comprehensive Paloeographic Series for Ireland. It 
 furnishes characteristic specimens of the documents which have come 
 down from each of tlie classes which, in past ages, formed principal 
 elements in the population of Ireland, or exercised an influence in her 
 affairs. With these reproductions are combined fac-similes of writings 
 connected with eminent personages or transactions of importance in the 
 annals of the country to the early part of the eighteenth centuiy. 
 
 The specimens have been reproduced as nearly as possible in accord- 
 ance with the originals, in dimcmsions, colouring, and general appearance. 
 Characteristic examples of stjde.s of writing and caligraphic ornamenta- 
 tion are, so fai as practicable, associated with subjects of historic and 
 linguistic interest. Descriptions of the various manuscripts are given 
 by the Editor in the Introduction. The contents of the specimens are 
 fully elucidated and printed in the original languages, opposite to 
 the Fac-similes — line for line — withoul. contractions — thus facilitating 
 reference and aiding effectively those interested in palaiographic studies. 
 
 In the work are also printed in full, for the first time, many original 
 and important historical docnineuts.
