PEEFACE
The present volume forms a continuation of the Calendar of the
Justiciary Rolls for the 23rd to the 31st years of King Edward I.,
published in 1905, and completes the calendar of these rolls, still
extant, for the reign of that King.
The nature of the rolls, and the constitution of the court whose
proceedings they record, are described in the preface to the volume
already issued. Notices of the Justices who may have sat in this
court are given in the same preface, and those notices will be
found to include the period covered by this volume.
In the Preface to the first volume of the Calendar a point of
much constitutional interest is noted as to the legal recognition
of Statutes made in England but not yet proclaimed by the
King's authority in Ireland. In the case there referred to, a
gift in Mortmain was made after the time when the Statute of
Mortmain was made in England, and before its formal publica-
tion in Ireland. No definite judgment of the Court is recorded,
but the obvious inference from the entry is that the Judges held
the Statute to operate here from the time that it became law
in England. A case in the present volume (p. 174) is similar.
Certain lands given to the Prior of Duleek were found to have
been given " long before the Statute was promulgated in this
land," but it w^as reported to be " after the Statute was enacted."
In this case it seems to have been assumed that the Statute did
not operate. But the point is mentioned here only incidentally,
this question not being directly before the Court, and so again
no judicial decision is recorded.
On the other hand, several statutes passed in England, but of
which no record is preserved that they had yet been specially
ordered to be observed in Ireland, are relied on as part of the
Statute Law of this land. Thus, the Statute against Champertv
(28 Ed I., c. 11) and the Statute of Fines (27 Ed. I.) are quoted
as law (pp. 9-10 and 418), although no authorisation for the
observance of either statute in Ireland has been found. At
p. 253, parties to a plea plead that it is forbidden by the Statute
made at Marleberge that any neighbour should drive distraints
made upon a neighbour, from one county to another. This refers-
to the Statute of Marlborough (52 Hen. III., c. 4), which is not
recorded to have been specially adopted for Ireland until enacted
by the Irish Parliament of 13 Edward II. It should, however,
be observed that this particular enactment is enforced by cap. 16
of the Statutes of Westminster I., which weie undoubtedly
authorised for Ireland.
Of the formal mode of requiring the observance of Statutes m
Ireland an example {Staiutum dc ReUgiosis) is given at pp. 359-60.
The King's writ with a sealed Copy of the Statute is directed
to the Justiciar, who is to cause the statutes to be read, published
IV PEEFACE.
and observed in every county in Ii'eland, and to have transcripts
under the great seal of Ireland sent to bodies specially concerned.
If, as seems to be the case, the Irish Court was ready to recog-
nise and enforce the operation of Statutes made in England,
although not yet specially ordered to be observed in Ireland, a
decision in relation to the Great Charter (p. 158) seems to be
inconsistent with this position.
Magna Charta had been granted to Ireland immediately after
the accession of Henry III . , of the same date , and in a form
differing very slightly from the first English Charter of that King.
There is no record of any regrant or confirmation of the Charter
for Ireland. The Court seems to have held that a confirmation
by the reigning King was requisite to maintain the validity of
the Charter during his reign. It accordingly ruled {p. 158) that
as King Edward had not yet granted to the men of this land
the liberties contained in the Great Charter, it was not in force
in Ireland. According to this decision Magna Charta ceased to
be part of the law of Ireland on the death of King Henry HI.
It was, it may be observed, re-enacted by the Irish Parliament
of 13 Edward II., which also dealt generally with the question of
the reception of English Statutes in Ireland.
The protest of John son of Thomas (afterwards earl of Kil-
dare), p. 76, supported by the earl of Ulster and other magnates
of Ireland, against the intervention of writs from England in
pleas before the Irish courts, is of interest in connexion with the
constitutional authority of the Irish courts. Those wdio pro-
tested contended that the Irish Chancery was competent to issue
writs for hearing in the courts here in all cases other than such
as required that the King should be directly consulted. The
practice, however, was in common use of sending writs from
England requiring the Justiciar to remit to the English courts
cases the hearing of which had been delayed or which he found
difficulty in deciding. It does not seem that the protest led to
any change of practice.
Other matters connected with the position and jurisdiction of
the court may be found in the Subject Index under the heads.
Court of Justiciar, Assise, Council, Error, Felons, Jurors and
Jury, and Justices.
Of still greater value for the history of the country are the
facts, social and political, incidentally revealed in the various
pleadings recorded on the rolls. An attempt has been made to
assist the student of history by collecting notices of such facts
or statements in the Subject Index under the heads, Social,
Ecclesiastical, Church, Domestic, Exchequer, Finance, Hiber-
nicus, Irish, Land, Marriage, Militai'y, Names, Serjeant, Sheriff",
Towns, Trade, Travel.
As an illustration of the mode in which the Government kept
in touch with different parts of the country, there is appended
to this preface an itinei'ary of the Chief Governor of Ireland for
the period over which the I'olls of Edward I. extend. It is very
PREFACE. . V
far from being a complete itinerary, as for the most part it con-
tains only those places at which the Justiciar, or his deputy,
with his court and train stayed to hold his court. But it may
be taken as some indication of the system of government, the
activity of the Chief Governor, and the parts of the island where
his authority was most frequently exercised and most fully recog-
nised. The loss of the rolls for several years makes the list very
defective. A few references inserted from other sources only to
a very small extent supply the defects.
The three rolls of Pleas for the three regnal years included in
this volume are of special interest, as they remain apparently in
the state in which they were originally put together by the enter-
ing clerk of court.
Each Roll consists of a number of parchment membranes,
measuring from 8 to 8i inches in breadth and G^ to 30 inches,
generally, about two feet in length. The term rotulus seems
to^ have been applied to these separate membranes, as on pages
357, 481 and 493 of this volume. These rotiili when written by
the clerk seem to have been filed in order of date, by vellum
thongs or laces passed through small holes pierced for the purpose
at the upper corners of the membrane. The file of the rotuli of
each term is referred to (p. 481) as a ligul, a lignla or lace. The
rotuli of each term are numbered at foot in contemporarv small
roman numerals, the number being generally followed ^by the
m.ark of contraction for us, showing that they are the Latin
ordinals agreeing with rotulus.
In the Justiciar's Court at this time thev seem to have counted
only three terms in the year— Hilary, 'Easter (including all
sittings to the Vacation), and Michaelmas, although at the same
period the four terms still known were recognised in the Bench.
At a somewhat later time the three files for the three terms
of each regnal year were again bound together at the top by other
similar thongs, n^akmg them form yearly rolls. This was, no
doubt, done in the following reign, as in each case the file for
Michaelmas term, although the latest in time, is placed first on
the joint roll. In the regnal years of Edward II., which com-
menced in July, Michaelmas term was the first in order of date
and apparently the clerks of that reign applied the same rule in
putting together the term rolls of the previous reign. The mem-
branes of these yearly rolls were again numbered by a somewhat
later hand in arable numerals, and these numbers are those used
for reference in this Calendar. The rolls for the 33d and 34th
years appear to be complete, but the 35th year unfortunately
wants the file for Hilary term , and of course ends when the death
of the King became known. Edward I. died at Burgh on the
Sands, near Carlisle, on 7 July, 1307, but the court here con-
tinued to be held under his authority until July 21.
The Pleas of the Ciown form a distinct roll, made up of similar
membranes filed originally in the same way. These membranes
iv PBEFACE.
were not formed into term files. The same file was continued
for several successive j'ears. One roll of Pleas of the Crown
covers the three years included in this volume. This roll is one
of the series forming the " Bermingham Tower" collection of
rolls, and is much less well preserved than the rolls already de-
scribed which had been retained in the Exchequer Offices. The
original vellum laces connecting the skins have disappeared, and
some membranes, both at the beginning and end, have probably
been lost. The right margin of each membrane and the lower
part of nearly all are badly decayed, causing many gaps in the
Calendar abstract.

slain his hihernici, but that Maurice Russell the sheriff came, and
took a day of agreement between them : so that by Gerald's threats
the said hihernici have left his lands.
Gerald cannot deny but that he threatened to slay these hihernici,

Henrv Aylward, which Geoffrey, in court at Dublin, asknowledged
that he owed. And if he has not sufficient, then to levy from Adam

And the Seneschal now returns that Geoffrey has not lands or
chattels from which he could levy the debt, but he took of the goods
of Adam, at Ceruey, 12 acres' of wheat value 40r/. each, nor has he other
^oods, because all arc taken into the hand of the King, and into the
hand of Geoffrey de Geneuill for debts. Said 12 acres of wheat are
ready to be delivered to plaintiff and are given to guard to Thomas
Colyere, Will. Waryng, Ralph le Cornwaleys and Robert Nichil,

Peter in the county are not sufficient to levy the King's debts. He
is again commanded to deliver the goods.
The Shenff was commanded to deliver 2 stacks of wheat and oats

After^'ards at Dublin, the Sheriff of Dublin returns that he com-
manded the Seneschal of the liberty of Weysford, who answers : Sale
is proclaimed of the goods of James de Ketyng before taken, but
there are no buyers. James has no other goods. The Seneschal is
directed by writ of the Exchequer Dublin that payment of the King's
debts be not retarded for debts of others, for which the goods are
not sufficient. John and the othei's have nothing.
Ihe Sheriff of Tiperary returns that the goods of James de Ketyng
in his county are not sufficient to levy the debts of the King.
The Sheriff of Kildare returns of the goods of John son of Thomas
taken at Ratliymegan viz. 23 crannocs of wheat and oats, value each
2s., that John took and expended the corn about the war in Offaly
and the construction of the castle of Gesyl ; and of 12 oxen and 4
afers taken, value each 40<:/., sale was proclaimed, but there are no
buyers. His other goods were taken for debts of Ger. Chymbard and
Will. Fautenel. James de Ketyng has nothing. All goods of Walter
Lenfaunt and John de Punchardoun were taken for divers debts,
before the receipt of the writ. Walter de Bodynton has nothing.
The Sheriff of Waterford returns that James de Ketyng has not
the value of a third jDart of the King's debt, therefore nothing can
be levied for Agnes. The others have nothing.
The Sheriff of Lymerick returns that Walter Maunsel chief Ser-
jeant answers : Henry le' Hunte serjeant of Adare delivered to Thomas
de Essex, seneschal of Agnes, two marcates of corn in the haggard,
and 8 oxen value each ^Qd. of James de Ketyng. He could not levy
more because the residue of his chattels do not suffice to pay the
King's debts. The cattle of the ploughs of John son of Thomas, 16
oxen, 16 afers before taken, remain to be sold, because no one dares
to buy them. The rent of John before taken into the King's hand
is levied by the bailiffs of Edmund le Botiller, to whom John
assigned it, long ago, for the money which he owed him for the
marriage of his daughter the wife of Edmund. Walter Lenfaunt haa
nothing but 10 librates of rent of which Agnes is in seisin by assign-
ment of Walter, by covenant between him and Agnes' attorneys, that
she shall have the rent yearly until Walter's portion of said money
be fully levied. The others have nothing.
The Sheriffs of Cork and Kerry did nothing.

cause execution to be done, according to law and the custom of the

By pretext of which, Edmund le Botiller custos of the land of Ire-

Memorandum that Alan le Clerck and Cecilia his wife were sum-
moned to show whether 50/. of a recognizance of 100^. to Geoffrey de
Mortone', by Robert le Decer, should not be levied for Geoffrey.
Alan and Cecilia came, and Cecilia put Alan as her attorney.
Alan says that Geoffrey unjustly prays execution of the recognizance;
because Robert le Decer impleaded Robert le Wodere of ten marks
of rent in co. Dublin, before the Justices of the Bench, Geoffrey
entered into covenaiit with Robert le D., that he Geoffrey would sue
said plea and give to Robert ^0/., so that after said rent was recovered,
he should enfeoff Geoffrey of said rent, and the damages adjudged
should belong to Geoffrey. For the observance of said covenant
Robert acknowledged in the Bench that he was bound to Geoffrey in
100/. ; and after Geoffrey should be enfeoffed of the rent, the recog-
nizance should be annulled. And Alan proffers a writing of Geoffrey :
Geoffrey de Morton citizen of Dublin, to all. Robert le Decer
citizen of Dublin acknowledged himself bound to Geoffrey in 100/. of

the court, and put him in seisin, then Geoft'rey is bound to Robert
in 40/. to be paid within the octave of his being put in seisin. And
the recognizance made in the Bench, Dublin, shall be void. Dated at
Dublin, Friday the feast of S. Katerine the virgin, a. r. xxix.
Before the I'ent was recovered Robert le Decer died, the plea still
pending. And Alan prays judgment if Geoffrey ought to have execu-
tion of the 100/., as they were acknowledged for champerty to recover
in the King's court the right of another, which is against the Statute
of the King, as Geoffrey's writing testifies. And as Robert died
before the rent was recovered he could not make an estate to Geoffrey
of the rent.
Geoffrey was told to look at the writing, if it was his deed. He
cannot deny it ; but says it is not prejudicial to him, because it
makes mention of a recognizance made in the Bench, and he prays
execution of a recognizance made here.
Alan says that however the recognizance be made here, it should
have been made in the Bench, as the letter mentions, and this was
said by Robert at the time the recognizance was made, and there is
no other recognizance made except this, and he prays that the rolls
of the Bench be searched.
On this Ric. de Saham and Will, de Moenes, barons of this Ex-
chequer, who were present when the recognizance was made, record
in presence of the lord Justiciar and others of the Council present,

that Robert le Decer, when he came to make said recoguizauce, before
he made it, said : Geoffrey ! See that I am not deceived, because I
ought to make this recognizance in the Bench, according to the form
of your letter.
And the Justiciar told Geoffrey to certify the court of the cause
and origin of the recognizance.
And Geoffrey having had some deliberation on this, says that
Robert was bound to him in 23 marks lent in diffei'ent sums and for
expenses about Robert's plea.
And the Justiciar questioned Geoffrey how much he received from
Will, de Wyleby who holds part of the tenements which were of
Robert le Decer, for release of the action which he had against
William for a moiety of the 100/.
And Geoffrey says that at the instance of friends he remitted to
him his action for ten marks.
And he was asked if he would release his action for the other
50/. to Alan and Cecilia, for other ten marks. After long question-
ing, he grants this, provided that it be paid immediately.
And the parties are told to be here on the morrow of S. Hilary, in
same state as now, to hear judgment, unless in the mean time they
can agree.
And Ric. le Blound serjeant of the King, holding that in the pre-
mises there is champerty, prays judgment for the King against
Geoffrey for that he made a covenant of champerty, as Geoffrey's deed
testifies, and sued the plea in the King's court, in prejudice of the
King, and against the Statute.
Afterwards in the morrow of S. Hilary, comes Geoffrey, and prays
execution of the 100/. And the Treasurer and barons considering
it to be uncertain as well for the letter of Geoffrey making mention
of a recognizance made in the Bench, and Robert's saying, lest he
should be deceived by Geoffrey, as that no recognizance was made in
the Bench ; also of the smallness of the money lent to Robert by
Geoffrey, of which he received ten marks from William de Wyleby as
he acknowledged ; and because Alan and Ricard the serjeant prayed
judgment against Geoffrey for champerty ; they deferred to make
execution. Nor dare they proceed further, until they have better
counsel.
And at the instance of Geoffrey the record is sent to the King in
England.

Ric. de Exon' and their fellows late justices of the Bench Diiblin,
between the Abbot de Voto and Margery, that she should render to
him 16/. lO*'. in arrear of an annual rent of 10*., error intervened.
And th© record came before J. Wogan justiciar, and afterwards: before
Edmund le Botiller custos, and having inspected the record, manifold
errors are found, on account of which it was adjudged that the record
be annulled and the judgment rendered revoked, and that all
damages levied by reason of the judgment be restored. And it was
commanded to the Sheriff, that to the value levied fi"om Margery for
the Abbot as damages, he should levy from the lands and chattels
of the Abbot and restore to Margery.
The Sheriff now retixrns that the Abbot de Voto has not lands or Dublin,
chattels in co. Waterford. And it is testified that he has in co.
Dublin, to wit in the liberty of Weysford. Therefore the Sheriff of
Dublin is commanded to levy, and make return at the month of
Easter.
At which day the Sheriff returned that he commanded the Sene-
schal of the liberty, who answers : No damages were levied in co.
Weysford of Margery de Nyuel to the use of the Abbot of Tynterne.
Nor has she lawfully shown to the Seneschal as to the quantity of
damages levied from her. And so the Seneschal knows not to what
value he should levy from the Abbot.
Therefoi'e the Sheriff of Waterford is commanded to show under Waterford.
his seal the quantity of damages levied by him from Margery.
And the Sheriff, on the morrow of Holy Trinity in said year, re-
turned that 16/. 10>\ of her goods were valued by oath of lawful
men, and Benedict le Poer chief Serjeant of Offath rendered them
to the Abbot de Voto by writ of judgment of the Bench.

viz. 6rA from each carucate of land of the liberty accvistomed to con-

before John Wogan, at Weysford, recorded it. Gilbert de Sutton
seneschal of said liberty, who was commanded to levy the subsidy,
bf cause it was not shown to him concerning said grant, has not
levied it.
And because Philip and Adam made record of it before the Jus-
ticiar, the Sheriff was commanded not to omit, on account of the
liberty to levy the subsidy for David, according to the grant.
The Sheriff now returns that there are taken into the hand of
the King, for said subsidy, 22 afers by the Serjeant of the Cl-oss of

appurtenances, and Moyele with appurtenances, beyond 40 acres
enfeoffed to others. If John die before the decease of Thomas,
Johanna shall be content with the manor of Moyosse with all its
members before-named for her dower. If Philip or Thomas in any
thing come against this form, the party accused shall be bound to
the party observing the covenant, in 200 marks, to be paid within
two months from the day when he attempts to come against the
premises : and shall submit to the distraint of the Treasurer and

Ponte and Will, le Deueneys, justices assigned, on the morrow of
S. Laurence a. r. xxxii.
Assise of Novel disseisin. If master Will, de la Ryuere dis-
seised Ric. son of Robert, of his freehold (one messviage and 200
acres) in Platyn.
And master William, by William de Balygorman his bailiff, sa.ys
that the tenement was at one time Ricard's, and one master
William de la Cornere recovered against Ricard, by judgment
before brother William son of Roger and his fellows justices
itinerant at Dublin. And he afterwards enfeoffed master William
de la Ryuere. So that after that recovery Ricard never had
estate of freehold there.
Ricard answers that master William de la Cornere had judg-
ment in said iter. But before the coming of the King's Serjeant
to deliver seisin to him, master William de la Ryuere entered
the tenements and appropriated them to himself and disseised
Ricard, and has continued this disseisin, and had not other estate
by W. de la C. or other.
Let assise be taken, which remains for want of jurors until the
Decollation of S. John the Baptist at Dyuelynschachlyn.
At which day the parties and the assise come.
The Jurors say that master Will, do la. Cornere recovered the
tenement against Ricard as stated, and had a writ to have seisin
directed to the Sheriff of Dublin, who made return of the writ to
Thomas le Flemmeng serjeant of the King : who came upon the
tenement to perform the King's precept; and the day before his
coming, Robert de Colp serjeant of master William de la Ryuere
seized the tenements to the use of his lord, and took herbagfe and
other issues, and imparked the beasts. And Thomas le Flemmeng
at his coming on the monow, asked who was there as attorney of
master Will, de la Cornere to take seisin of the recovered tene-
ments. And Will, de Balygorman presented himself as attorney
of master Will, de la Cornere. And Thomas asked him what he
had to show that he was attorney. William answered that he had
enough elsewhere, though he had it not at present. And after-
wards it was agreed between them that Thomas said to William
de Balygorman : I deliver to thee seisin to the use of master
William de la Cornere, as my warrant wills it. And Will, de
Balygorman answered : Master William de la Ryuere had seisin
of said tenements, who had more to do with their recovery than
master William de la Cornere. And he never received anv other

seisin, nor appropriated it to the use of master W. de la C. But
always after continued seisin to the use of master Will, de la
Ryuere. Asked if lie made diss-eisin or not; they say they know
not, and pray help of the court.
On this, a day is given to hear judgntont, at Dyuelynscachlyn on
Monday after the octave of S. Michael.
At that day, came Ricard, and Will, de Balygorman bailiff of
master Will, de la Ryuere. And Ricard prays judgment.
And because it is found by the assise that Robert de Colp,
bailiff of master Will, de la Ryuere, after judgment given for
master W. de la Cornere, and before execution made by delivery
of seisin, occupied said tenements to the use of master Will, de
la Ryuere, and continued that seisin, as well before the coming
of the King's serjeant, as after, so that the livery of seisin made
to Will, de Balygorman, who said he was attorney of master W.
de la Cornere, took no effect; but master W. de la R. who ac-
cepted the disseisin made in his name by Robert his bailiff, had
no other estate in thq tenements but by that disseisin ; it is ad-
judged that Ricard son of Robert recover his seisin against master
W. de la R. by view of the recognitors, with his damages, taxed
by same assise at nine score marks. And master W. de la R. in
mercy for disseisin.
And the parties now come. And the King sends his writ that
the Justiciar send the record to the King, as appears by the writ
enrolled inside this roll in the beginning of the roll. Therefore the
writ, with the record, are delivered to master William de Wasse-
bourne, who sues for master W. de la R., to carry to the King.
And the parties are told to be before the King in the octaves of
the Purification. Although according to the custom of the land of
Ireland, it has not been accustomed to fix so short a time.
The King sent his writ: Edward, &c. to J. Wogan, &c. Whereas England.
Rio. son of Robert son of John by assise of Novel disseisin recovered
against master Will, de la Ryuere and Will, de Balygorman, before
Simon de Ludgate, Thomas de Snyterby and John son of Ryrth
justices assigned to take assises, seisin of one messuage and 4 caru-
cates of land in Platyn ; and the justices adjourned the assise to
hear judgment in the Bench, Dublin. And afterwards at the com-
plaint of master William, the record and judgment rendered were
made to come before the King, and on account of many errors, the
judgment was annulled. And the King has learned 'that master
William for an amercement by the justices of the Bench, of 40.?., and
W. de Balygormaii for one of 1 mark, are destrained, and it is hard
that they should be aggrieved on account of a judgment revoked as
erroneous. Wogan is to caus.e the distraints to be released. Teste
R. de Brabazun, at York, 18 Oct. a. r. xxxii.
The Treasurer and chamberlains are directed, that if they have
paid the amercements, they shall be given back, and if not paid
they shall be quit.
Agnes de Valence showed the Court that whereas John de Hothum, Kikkre
her bailiff at Rathmor and elsewhere in her lands and manors in
Ireland, was in arrear in his account to her in nil. lis. which he
acknowledged before the justices; of the Bisnch, Dublin, that he
owed her ; and he was committed to prison according to the Statute.

Afterwards John suggesting to the court that the aviditors of the
account unduly aggrieved him on the account, charging him with
receipts which he did not receive, and not allowing expenses and
reasonable payments, sued, a writ by which he was delivered by
mainprise to be before the Treasurer and barons of the Exchequer,
Dublin, at a certain day, to read the account and stand to the charge
according to the Statute. In suing which writ, he did not mention
the fact of the acknowledgment of said arrears which he made
before said justices, which fact if he had stated he would not have
obtained the writ.
And because, on the joart of Agnes, no one came to the Ex-
chequer with rolls and tallies at the reading of the account, nor to
charge John, John was released from prison, without in any way
having satisfied Agnes for the arrears. On which the sheriff was
commanded to take and keep him in prison until he made satisfaction
to Agnes.
And the Sheriff returns that John was not found after receipt of
the writ. And it is testified that he dwells in ... . and can be
fo'und by the Sheriff. The Sheriff is commanded to take him, and

Petition heard of Thomas Snyterby. It is granted to him Kildare.
that he may hold the tenement of Torragh for term of his life,
which tenement is held of the King in capite ; and which Thomas
entered without licence. And the trespass is pardoned. Therefore
the Chancellor is directed to make letters patent of the King.
Petition heard of Peter de Blaye, merchant of the duchy of Aqui- Cork,
taine, complaining that when he arrived in the city of Cork, with
30 tuns of wine which he brought fi'om the parts of Gascony, and
paid the new custom of the King for those wines, by which he
ought to be quit of the taking of prises by charter of the King of
liberties granted to merchant strangers ; the Mayor and bailiffs of
said city took from him one tun of wine as prise for said wines.
Having inspected the charter in which is contained that the King
granted that merchant strangers shall give for each tun of wine 2.s\
and they should be quit of the taking of the former prises, the
Mayor and bailiffs are directed that if it appear that Peter is of
said duchy and that he fully paid the new custom, they should desist
from exacting prise or any other custom from him for those wines.
And if they have taken or levied anything on this account, they
should without delay restore it to him.

The King sent his writ: Edward, &c. to J. Wogan, etc. Mandate England,
to enquire if it be to the damage of the King or others, if he
should grant to Ricard archbishop of Dublin, that he may give to
the prior and brethren of the order of S. Mary of Mount Carmel,
dwelling in Dublin, an area in the suburb of Dublin contiguous to
their house, in which a church called the church of S. Peter de la
Hille, which was parochial, is situate, together with a meadow ad-
joining, for the enlargement of their place (jiJncea) : to hold to
them and their successors for ever. Teste at Brustwyk, 14 Nov.

King, in time of vacancy of the archbishopric. So it is yet parochial,
and is worth to the chaplain four marks yearly because he resides
in it ; but to a rector not i esident it is worth on© mai'k yearly, beyond
the service of a chaplain serving the church. They say it is not to
the damage of the King if he should give licence to the Archbishop
to give the area and meadow to the Friars, except that the King
would lose the presentation in time of vacancy. They say that the
area with the meadow contains one acre and three-quarters. No
service is due to anyone for the area, because it is free alms of the
church. In said area is a curtilage, and it is worth one mark yearly,
computed above in the value of the church. It is not to the damage
of any other, except the rector, if removed from possession, viz. four
marks during his life. The writ and inquisition are delivered to
brother Walter Crompe to carry to the King in England.
(On a slip of parchmefit sewn on the membrane.) Be it known
that the Mayor and bailiffs of Dublin came and acknowledged that
the Brethren gave them security that if the King should grant that
they may have the area with said church, they will provide two
entries to the church. So that everyone who wishes to come to the
church may have free ingress and egress; and that they will for

Engleys of Droghda for the profit of Oliva, as in a writing between

charter of King Henry the father enrolled in court here. And be-
cause they did not produce the charter, nor prove it to be enrolled ;
and the contract took origin outside the metes of the burgh, viz., at
Bordeaux, they are told to answer.
And Stephen and Peter say that they were executors of the testa-
ment of John, and had adminstration, and rendered account of
the administration before the ordinary, as is the custom, and by that
account were quit of the testament; and they pi'ay judgment.
And Thomas and Oliva say that, though they say that they ren-
dered account, Peter yet has goods of John to the amount which
they demand.
Peter and Stephen, with John, pray that they xnay show what
they have for said debt.
Thomas and Oliva say that they had a writing for the debt, which
writing was taken from them as contained in the suggestion of their
writ. And they offer to prove this by Law Merchant, and other
modes which the Court may adjudge.
And Peter and the others say that Thomas and Oliva ought not
to be admitted to such proof against them who are strangers to the
writing, of which they are ignorant; though they might be admitted
to this against John if he survived, concerning his own deed.
And Thomas and Oliva say that the writing was taken from them
by common war, so that fact is public and notorious. And as they
do not admit the proof they offer, they pray judgment against them
as undefended.
And Peter and the others say, as before, that they are not bound
to answer without a special deed ; and they pray judgment.
A day is given them to hear judgment at the month of Easter.
At that day, at Dublin, come the parties ; and each prays judg-
ment. And having inspected the above mandate of the King which
contains that Thomas and Oliva should have justice according to
Law Merchant, Oliva is asked if she have sufficient witnesses to
prove that said chattels were hers, according to said law. She says
she has. Therefore they are told to come with sufficient witnesses
on the Friday before the five weeks from Easter.
At which day the parties come. And Oliva being sworn says that
she when sole about 18 years past at Bordeaux in the time of vin-
tage gave to John le Engleys 21 tuns and 2 pipes of wine to employ
for her use, to answer her for the profit arising. And at the time
of Rek, she delivered to him, in the same manner, 95 tuns and 5
pipes of wine, for which John paid her AOl. only. And on this Oliva
produced witnesses, Ric. Chiualer, John de Wylton, Alan de
Arderne, John de London, Ralph Lengleys of Bordeaux, and Simon
le Armerer.
And said Ricard being sworn by himself and examined, says that
18 yeai'S ago, Oliva, at Bordeaux, he being present and seeing, gave
to John Lengleys 21 tuns and 2 pipes; and he was present when
John had the wine carried away, and he remained in thos.e parts until
the time of the Tieh', when Oliva gave John, in same manner, 95 tuns
and 5 pipes of wine in Ricard's presence, which wines John caused
to be carried away.
John de Wylton agrees with Ricard.
Alan de Arderne did not see the delivery of the wines, but heard
it commonly of divers merchants, and says he knew that John
Lengleys, at the suit of Oliva, was attached at London, for said
wines, and fled by stealth, on which his pledges were amerced.

John de London agrees with Alan; and says further that divers
merchants of Drogheda, and other parts of Ireland, were attached
at Bordeaux, at suit of Oliva, for said wines, who for their delivery
proved that there were no goods of John Lengleys with them.
Ralph Lengleys says he did not see delivery of the wines, but that
he heard sufficiently of divers merchants, and saw the charters made
between them which testified this.
Simon le Armerere says he was not present at delivery of the wines
but he heard it of many merchants coming from the parts of Bor-
deaux, and heard from them that divers merchants of Drogheda,
and other parts of Ireland, were attached at Bordeaux, at the suit
of Oliva, on tliis account.
Thomas and Oliva, asked if they have further proof, say that if
said proof does not suffice, they are ready to prove their suggestion
by divers merchants of parts this side the sea, and by other modes
which the Court may adjudge.
Peter, Stephen, and John son of John Lengleys, asked if they can
say anything against said proof, siay they cannot say anything ex-
cept what they said before, and this is sufficient for them, as it
seems to them.
And having advice of divers merchants, who, being sworn, say
that each tun of said wines wei-e worth at the time of delivery, de-
ducting freight and expenses, 28.9. 8^. ; and having subtracted 40Z.
which Oliva acknowledged that she had received, which extends to
about the price of 28 tuns of wine at said estimate :
It is adjudged that Thomas and Oliva recover against Stephen as
much as has come to his hands of the chattels of John ; and against
Peter and John the son of John Lengleys, the price of the residue,
viz., 90 tuns and one pipe, which extend according to the estimate
to 129^ 14.^. 4c/. ; and the damages taxed by same jiirors at 60/. 6*\ 8d.,
to wit for each tun, one mark. And Peter, Stephen, and John son
and heir of John Lengleys, in mei'cy. Peter is charged with the
whole because he did not admit the proof which Thomas and Oliva
offered against him that sufficient chattels of John remained to him.
And Stephen is charged only with the chattels of John which re-
mained with him because he alleged that nothing remained to him
after the account ; and Thomas and Oliva did not deny this.
Will. Lenfaunt acknowledges that he owes to Edmund le Botiller Kildare.

the King had directed him, that he may assign of the King's lands
in Ireland, to the value of 601. yearly, in fitting places where it
would be least damage to the King, to be extended to the use of

By pretext of which mandate, Edmund le Botiller, locum tenens
of the justiciar, caused the mandate to be read in full Council.
And it seemed to all that it would be least damage to the King, of
all jjlaces which they know in Ireland, if he should give to John his
tenements at New Castle Mackynegan, where is a castle very weak,
and in a strong march ; or if it would jDlease the King to give the
lands which were of John de Mouhun, the greater part of which is
in the land of peace. And it was agreed by the whole Council, that
the Treasurer and barons of the Exchequer, Dublin, should cause
to be extended the tenements of the King at New Castle ; who did
so, and they delivered the extent made to said Edmund :

Jan. 27. Yet of pleas at Dublin before Edmund le Botiller, Gustos, in
THE QUINZAINE OF S. HiLARY.
Dublin. James de Ketyng was attached to answer the King and John de la
Rokele, with Robert Talebot, of a, plea of conspiracy and trespass.
John complains that there was a covenant between him and James,
that if James should acquire to John's use, the manor of Dundeyr in
Connacht, which manor Robert son of James held by demise of James,
who claims to hold it by the law of England, of the inheritance of Jolm,
then John having seisin of the manor should remit to James, for his
life, all action in all other tenements which James held of the inheri-
tance of John. And John made a writing of quit claim, and by
covenant between them delivered it to Robert Talebot to keep ; under
condition that when James recovered said manor and delivered it to
John quietly, then Robei't should deliver to James the writing. If
James did not so, then Robert should be bound to restore the writing
to John. Robert, by conspiracy between him and James, to exclude
John from his action against James, for those tenements which James
claims to hold for life of the inheritanoe of John, delivered the writing
to James without assent of John, although James had not recovered
the manor, nor delivered it to John. And so they made conspiracy
in lesion of the Crown, and in prejudice of John, who says he has
damage of 500^.
James comes and defends. He says it was agreed that the writing-
should be delivered by Robert as soon as Robert should know that John
had the manor. And he says that Robert his son rendered the manor
to John; on which Robert Talebot delivered the writing to James.
John says that it was agreed that James (who said that Robert his son
had disseised him of the manor) should svie by assise of novel disseisin
until he should recover it, and when he should have delivered it to
John, then the writing should be delivered to James. And as James
cannot deny that he received the writing against the will of John, the
^
83 EDWARD I. 31
Membrane 34 — cont. 1305.
manor not having been recoveired by James, nor delivered to John, he
prays judgment whether James can deny consipiracy between him and
Robert, concerning the delivery of the writing.
James acknowledges that it was agreed that he should sue the
plea until the manor should be delivered to John, with condition that
when the manor should be delivered, the writing should be delivered
to James. And he says as before that when Robert Talebot knew that
the manor was delivered to John, he delivered the writing to James
without collusion or conspiracy. He says also that it was agreed that
the plea was to be carried on wholly at the costs of John.
And after the writ was sued, James made his attorney of him whom
John named to him and chose, the authority of whom James never
revoked .
John acknowledges that James made the attorney as said. But says
that when they came to plead, there came one William de Burgo, who
is of great power in the parts of Dundeyr, showing a writing under the
name of James, which testified that James had demised to him the
greater part of the demesne lands of the manor, for the term of sixteen
years. And Robert alleged that he entered in the residue of the manor
by agreement of James. Ajid John often asked James to come ther'e to
that plea in person at the costs of John to confute those acts if he
could ; who refused tO' come, on which John was obliged, if he wished
to have the part of the manor which was in the hand of Robert, tO' give
Robert lands in Leinster to the value, ajid so he received that part by
exchange, and not by delivery of James.
James says he dared not go to Connacht, for fear of enemies, but he
told John that his attoi-ney could deny that tliose deeds were James's,
at James's risk ; and so John cannot show that it lay with James that
the plea was not prosecuted, and James is prepared to prove that after
Robert his son delivered the manor to John, William, by assent of
John, attorned to John for the term which he said he had. He prays
judgment. John cannot deny this, but says that this was not at the
prosecution of James; wherefore he prays judgment.
Afterwards, at the month of Easter, at Dublin, came the parties.
And John withdrew from his writ, as appears in the rolls of same term,

that when Eustace, at the request of Philip, would have married
Martilla his niece to John son and heir of Philip, Philip undertook
to obtain in the Roman court a dispensation for their marriage, on
account of consanguinity, which if he should not do, then he should
be bound in 500 marks. And so for that contract he made his
letters patent, which Maurice Russell, in the name of Eustace and
by his commanrl, gave to Johanna wife of Philip to keep. Philip
took the writing from the keeping of Johanna against her will and
broke it, to the damage of Eustace of 1,000Z.
Philip comes and says that he did not take or break the writing,
nor did it come to his hands. Issue joined. The Sheriff is com-

between Walter de Grey and Ric. Baroun and Beatrice Assyck, of
tenements, in Greyestouu. He comes au'l defends, and puts himself
on the country.
The jurors say that that plea was moved without procurement of
Gervase, and afterwards it was agi-eed in a parley between Ricard,
Beatrice, and Gervase, that they should grant to Gervase said tene-
ments, for a term of four years, and that he should defend for them
said plea, and give them a certain sum at a certain term, which
coming, Gervase paid them uolhing. On which they aliened those
tenements to David Drako, in fee, who ejected Gervase. On which,
Gervase in anger went to Walter, and agreed with him, that if
Walter could gain those tenements, he should grant them to Gervase
for 10 marks, Ricard and Beatrice not being warned nor consenting.
And afterwards he gave to David other tenements in exchange for
them. And they say that Gervase is not a conspirator nor cham-
pertor except as aforesaid. Tlierefore as to the conspiracy let him
go quit. But because he at first stayed with the tenants to defend
their plea ; and afterwards, while the plea was pending, entered into

the service of the King; and also 15/. 10s. M. which Nigel received
in the Exchequer at Dublin, as well for wages of Serjeant footmen

And Nigel says as to the 100s. that at the request of Bindus, the
said horse was accounted with other horses of Nigel lost, of which
Alex, de Bykenore clerk of the King assigned to pay the wages in
said war, has not yet brought the warrant. But as soon as he shall
have brought the warrant he will be prepared to satisfy him. As
to the wages of footmen, he says that Bindus unjustly complains,
for the footmen were Nigel's, who brought them from this land at
his expense, and they remained with him. And this he offers to
prove as the court may adjudge.
Bindus says that for want of payment said Serjeants left Nigel
in Scotland, and by licence of Ric de Burgo, earl of Ulster, with
whom both were serving, they remained with Bindus, for the time
extending to so much wages. And this he offers to prove. As to

Day given to hear judgment at the month of Easter.
Dublin Will, de Monte, merchant of Florence, complains that whereas a
great controversy lately arose between Hugh del Post (or Poft), vcvev-
cha,nt of same country, and said William, concerning the goods of
Theobald de Castelloun, of Florence, formerly a fellow of said William;
and they put themselves on the arbitration of four discreet men, which
four should choose a fifth. And brother Master Gwido de Vicuo
was elected as the fifth. And by counsel of friends, William asked
Gwido, who is of great discretion, to be his friend against his
brother. And he would not promise him any friendship until he
bound himself to him in lOZ. by a writing; and afterwards in 20^.
by another writing, of which 10^. he paid 40s. down and gave pledge
for 60.S., and Gwido promised by said contract to be his entire
friend. And Gwido falsely took another letter obligatory from
Hugh for other 20/., to be his friend in same judgment. By which
he caused him damage to 500 marks. And also William delivered
to him a writing of seven score marks, to keep until Hugh
should make to William sufficient security to acquit him against all
who may have action to demand the goods of Theobald. And
Guydo delivered the writing to Hugh against the will of William.
Wherefore he says he has damage of 500 marks.
Guydo comes and defends all malice. He says that his brothers
long had damage by William and his accomplices. On account of
which he said he would not be his friend until satisfaction should
be made for these trespasses. And so William to make satisfaction,
and for no other cause made said writings. As to the writing
obligatory of Hugh, it was not made by any corrupt contract. And
he puts himself on the country ; so that verdict be made by his com-
patriots dwelling in this land : having respect to a writing enclosed in
a box in which the writing of Hugh was enclosed under Hugh's
seal. Which box Guydo delivered in full court; and in which was
another writing under seal of Guydo, made in the language of
his country, by which Guydo says he may be seen to be excused from
all malice. And 12 merchants of their country (Hugh being
associated with him by assent of the parties) being sworn, say that
Guydo did William no injury in delivering said writing, because
it was agreed between them that that writing should be delivered
to Hugh when he should demand it. And as to the 10/. they say
William unjustly complains, because he made that obligation to ap-
pease trespasses before done to the brothers of Guydo by William
and his men. And as to the two writings of 20/. they say that
William made the writing for 20/. without condition, for which
Guydo undertook to aid William in the arbitration against Hugh.
And Hugh afterwards made to Guydo another like writing of 20/. j
on which Guydo likewise undertook to aid Hugh against William'
And they say that by those contracts, William's side was not
injured, but Hugh's was.

Therefore it is adjudged that as to the delivery of said writing,

to the other contracts, which appear to the court very corrupt, it is
adjudged that each writing* of 201. be condemned and annulled.
Afterwards, at the instance of magnates, friends of Guydo, he is
admitted to make fine before judgment of prison. And he made
fine for 100s. by pledge.

Thomas de Sandeby, carpenter, complains that John Matheu, Dublin.
King's forester of Glencry, falsely presented to the Treasurer of
Ireland that Thomas stole a large amount of the King's timber and
wood from Glencry, and maliciously brought him to the Treasurer,
who caused him to be imprisoned in the castle of Dublin ; where John
caused him to be kept in most strait prison, and in iron, for three
weeks and more, to his damage of 20/.
John says that he faithfully presented. For he found Thomas in
the act of stealing, and wishea to attach him; but he would not
permit himself to be attached, but fled. And he found Thonias
afterwards at Dublin, and led him to the Treasurer, who caused him
to be imprisoned. He offers to prove by the country.
Thomas says that he ought not to be admitted to that proof
because he (Thomas) was charged before the Treasurer in full Ex-
chequer, where he put himself on a jury of the country. When he
could not find favour to have a jury of the visne unless John should
be in the twelve, and this he suffered for fear of prison. And

Feb. 12. I'LEAS OF Plaints at Tylagh, on Friday after the Octave of the
Purification, before said Gustos.
Dublin. Maurice le Criour for himself and the King v. Nich. son of
Catli. Rcibert, Will. Glannoc, David son of Will. Glannoc, Gregory son of
Will Glannoc, Ph. son of Will. Glannoc, Juliana wife of Nich. son
of Robert, and Cecilia wife of Will Glannoc. It is found by the
Jury that Maurice by precept of the King came to Castle Fotherid
to procure carriage to carry the victuals of the Custos of Ireland.
He enjoined Will. C'achepoi, a serjeant of said town, to show him
the best afers of the town, and he ordered him to take the carriage,
which Serjeant came to the house of William Glannoc, and would
liave taken carriage tli^ere; which Ph. sou of William Glannoc per-
ceiving, wished to take away the afers of his father lest they should
be taken for the carriage. And William, the serjeant, seeing him
lead away an afer of his father's, prevented him and tried to take
that afer for the carriage. Philip, unwilling to suffer this, struck
the serjeant, and the serjeant struck him back. And William
Glannoc and David his son hearing the noise, came and badly beat
the serjeant and deforced him ; and Nicholas son of Robert ill-treated
Maurice and tore the hair from his head, to his damage of 2s. and
in contempt of the King. Gregoi-y, Juliana, and Cecilia did no
damage.
Judgment that Maurice recover his damages found by the jury.
Nicholas, William Glannoc, David, and Philip be committed to gaol
for deforcement. Maurice in mercy for false claim against the
others ; pardoned by the Justiciar.
And because it appears to the court that the serjeant came in
the night time to the tiown to take' the cariiaige, soi that it may have
happened that Gregory and the others did not know him to be the
Serjeant; prison is by grace remitted.

cause the King does not wish that anything duly done in his court
should become void by lapse of time, the Sheriff was commanded to
summon Gregory to show cause why the money should not be levied

divers tenements in the parts of Cassell, of divers men, and held
the niece of Reymund de Burgo, who then was a magnate in those
parts, in concvibinage, of whom he begot Ricard his son. And
when Ricard was seven years old, his father gave him 2 carucates of
land in Kylsegan, which are in the hand of the King, and worth
yearly in all issues 42s. He gave also to him 160 acres of land in
Balybthle, worth yearly 5 marks, which ought not to be con-
sidered because that land was charged with 5 marks rent yearly to
Math. Milet, of whom the King acquired the rent in fee, and the
land is worth nothing beyond the rent. He gave also to him 24

And they say that Ricard the father acquired the manor of
Rathcon in those parts ; and when he wished to have anything of
the goods in those tenements, he borrowed it of said Matthew the
bailiff, and afterwards paid for the things as if a stranger. And
after the death of Ricard the father, who was receiver of the Queen's
gold. Will, de Esden, then Treasurer of Ireland, seised said manor
and all said tenements into the hand of the King for debts of
Ricard, as they believe. And afterwards the King, by John
Wogan, Justiciar of Ireland, gave the said manor and tenements,
except the two carucates in Kylsegan, to Geoffrey le Bret, in ex-

Pleas at Ros before Edmund le Botiller, the Gustos, on Monday
THE FEAST OF S. DaVID.
The King sent his writ: Edward, &c., to John Wogan, &c. Ric.
Cheualer, citizen and merchant of Bordeaux {Burdegal), has prayed
that whereas his ship was laden with 65 tuns of wine in Gascony for
England; and that ship on the sea coast near S. Math, in Brittany
being taken by pirates ujDon the sea, and 16 of the men in the ship
slain, and the ship with said wines is now arrested at Dundalk,
and some of the malefactors found in her have been hanged for the
robbery; that the ship and wines may be delivered to him. The
King wills justice to be done him. Wogan is to cause them to be
delivered to Ricard according to the law merchant. Teste at Wal-
singham, 2 Feb., a.r. xxxiii.
The rolls of pleas of the Crown for the term of S. Michael last
having been examined, it isi found that one Henry Mariot and other
felons were condemned by j-eason that they robbed a ship upon the
sea and slew the mariners in her ; and in possession of the felons was
found an indented instrument, among others, which testified that
said Ricard had in a ship called la Ryche de Colet, 20 tuns and
one pipe of wine. And discussion being had with Thomas Cantok,
Chancellor, and Ric. de Saham, Baron of the Exchequer, and other
faithful men of the King then present, it appeared to all that the
goods which Ricard could prove to be his, and which are yet in
arrest, should be delivei'ed to him by vii-tue of this writ, except
goods which are sold, and the money come to the King's treasviry,
delivery of which should not be made without special mandate of
the King to pay.
And Ricard being sworn, proved by John Tayllepas, of Ros, and
John le Hore, of Waterford, sworn and examined, that half of the
ship and of its equipment, with a certain chest in her, and the said
wines, were his own, to wit the wines contained in said instrument.
At the petition of Ricard it is granted that he may have the
other moiety of the ship and equipment, to answer to the King for
the value, viz., 10^., by pledge of John le Hore of "Waterford, and
Thomas Aberdowe, of Ros. And those who before wei'e charged
shall remain discharged. And Roger Gernoun, sheriff of Louetli,
and the bailiffs of Dundalk, are directed to deliver to him the ship,
and the goods, if not yet sold. And Ricard is told that for his
goods sold, and answered for to the King in the Exchequer, he may
sue to the King if he will.

The advowsons of the church and vicarage of Catherlagh, worth
yeax'ly 50 marks ; the church and vicarage of Old Ros, 20/. ; the
church of Kylscallan, 10 marks, belong to the Earl. The Earl re-
ceived of his tenements in each service proclaimed in Ireland, beyond
the services due to the King, 23/. 5s., not contained in above value,
because they do not happen every year. The lands and tenements
would be worth to the King, if in his hand, 100/. beyond said value.
This increase the King might receive by reason of royal services of
waste lands, which could be assessed by the King's bailiffs, and of
certain fees which it would not be necessary for the King to pay,
and of wards and marriages of which no mention is made because
they are uncertain.

on which the servingman with his spear struck the dog, which

Ralph, being in the house from which the dog issued, seeing, taking
a short stick, went out of the house, and threw it at the servingman,
striking him on the neck, from which he fell to the ground, his face
being badly wounded. And Simon and one Robert de Racheford,
one of the Bishop's valets, seeing this rode towards Ralph threaten-
ing him for that blow. Ralph for fear of them entered his house
and shut the door. Simon and Robert alighting tried to break
the door to take vengeance on Ralph. But Ralph going into his
yard by another door came into the street, and he and his wife
raised hue-and-cry. On which William son of Geoffrey Cachepol,
and the others (except Thomas le Chapman, Edmund de Valle,
Adam Gregori and Oliver Deyncourt) and their households, men and
women, came out with arms and stones, attacking Simon and Robert.
The Bishop being in the outlet of the town perceiving this, peace-
fidly returned, and gave as is customary the benediction, asking
those assembled to cease from doing evil to his men, and pledging
himself to make satisfaction immediately for any trespasses done by
his men to each person of the town. But they, not accepting his
request, although often made, surrounding the Bishop, and Simon,
Robert, and his other valets and servants, attacked them on every
side; so that in the conflict a stone was thrown at the Bishop, and
one of his valets, Michael de la Lyserne, was struck almost to death,
so that his life is despaired of, and it is believed that he will die
within three days. And Robert de Racheford was badly wounded
with an arrow.
And of Thomas Chapman and Ric. Clement they say that they
were not present, but their wives and families were. And of said
Edmund, Adam Gregori, and Oliver, they say tliat they are not

2 acres meadow, 60 acres wood, and 40 acres of moor.
John and Duscoly do not come. Eustace answers for Thomas as
his bailiif, and for himself as tenant. He says the assise ought not
to be taken now, because the summons and attachment were too
short to proceed, to wit, three days, when they ought to contain
15 days at least.
And the Sheriff Serjeants and summoners being examined acknow-
ledge that the summons and attachment were made eight days past
and not more. It seems to the court that they were too short in
that they do not contain 15 days. Therefore the Sheriff is com-
manded to summon twelve at Cassell to make the assise, on Thursday
after the close of Easter. And in the meantime let him cause them
to have view.
Afterwards at that day, come the parties. And Eustace says the
assise ought not to be taken because where there is named in the wi'it
one Dufcoly wife of John son of Reymund, she is not called Duscoly,
but the name of the woman is Dufkouly, and he jDrays judgment.
And Hugh cannot deny this.
It is adjudged that Hugh be in mercy for false claim. Afterwards
mercy is pardoned, because the error is of the Chancery.

Will, son of Ricard, sub-serjeant of the Sheriff of this county, Tipperary
complained to the court of James de Ktyng knight, that when
William and other Serjeants of said county took of the goods of
James, by precept of the King, chattels to the value of 8/. and gave
them to keepers to answer to the King, and Agnes de Valence, for
debts in which James was bound to them, and likewise, by another
precept, took of his goods into ihe King's hand, 200 sheep, value each
%d. ; James took away the goods and sheep, against the peace of the
King. And now, in the Sheriff's full collecta at Clonniele, he anew
attacked William the serjeant with insulting words, on account of
the taking of the goods, and beat and ill-treated him. And William
prays a remedy, as well for himself as for the King.
And James, demanded in full court, says that he, understanding
that the serjeant was driving his sheep in deep snow to Cassell, fearing
that his sheep on account of the cold of the time would perish, said
he would not suffer his sheep to perish of hunger and cold, and he
took them back to the house. As to the goods to the value of 8L,
he cannot deny that he took them. As to the complaint of William
of the beating, he acknowledges that he struck him on the head with
his hand, not in/ malice, and the serjeant received no injury. He
puts himself on the grace of the King.
And because it appears to the court that all the trespasses are
done against the King's dignify, and in contempt of the Crown, it
is adjudged that James be committed to gaol, there to await the
grace of the King. And tO' judgment for damage of the serjeant.
Afterwards he was released by mainprise.
Afterwards in the morrow of the close of Easter at Cassel, at the
instance of Eustace le Pouer and Peter de Byrmengeham, and other
magnates, the trespass is pardoned, so that henceforth he bear him-
self well.
Eustace le Poer complained to the court on the morrow of Tippeiary
Epiphany that when he pleaded before Edmund le Botiller the
Gustos, for a friend, against William son of William, by writ of
Novel disseisin of a tenement in Kylclon, George de Rupe, wishing
to maintain the part of said William, abused Eustace in full bar
{plena barra), saying to him that he lied when he said that the
party of the plea which Eustace maintained had better right than
William and the other disseisors. For which it was adjudged that
George should be committed to gaol until he satisfy the King for
said contempt, and until it should be ordained by the Council what
amends George ought to make to Eustace for said contempt. And
George without licence left the custody of the Marshal, having taken
his horses and trappings, and all of his company, went openly out of
the town towards his own country, and would not retiirn to the
custody of the marshal to which he was committed, although

after him a league and more out of the town of Cassell, and told
him to return to custody, or at least go to the court that he might
be put on mainprise to another day.
And Eustace now, in presence of George, as well for himself as for
the King, demands execution of the first judgment, and that justice
be done him upon taxation of damages.
It is adjudged that George, who before without licence withdrew
from the custody of the Marshal, which he cannot deny, be again
committed to gaol, to be redeemed at the will of the King.
Afterwards, at the instance of Maurice de Rupe forti and other
magnates, Eustace pardoned George all action for said trespass, the
more readily as it appears to Eustace that George had drunk two
or three cups more than usual of the best white wine in the town
of Cassel with John de Fi'esingfeld in John's lodging. George is
released by mainprise until the month of Easter at suit of the King.

Tipperary. Will, de Berdesfeud, the King's serjeant pleader, complains of
Walter Maunsel, chief serjeant of this county, that whereas William
brought to the Sheriff divers writs to levy divers debts, the Sheriff
gave the writs to Walter to execute. To which writs Walter, who
was tardy arid remiss in execution, answered : As to the first writ of
Nich. de Inteberge, that he took of the goods of Nicholas for the
4 marks, 8 oxen and corn in the haggard to the value ; whereas he
took nothing from him, to the dainage of William, in contempt of
the King's writ, and against his oath. As to a writ to levy of Hugh
Purcel, he answered that he took corn in haggard to the value of
100s. : whereas he did nothing. As to a writ to levy of Henry de
Byrmyngham, 40,s\, he answered that he levied the money and had it
ready to pay to William, whereof he lias not yet satisfied him. As to
a writ to levy of Robert Haket 40.«., he answered that Robert deforced
the serjeant, when he made no deforcement. As to the writ to Levy of
William son of William 100s., he did nothing, but returned that
William had nothing in his bailiwic, although he had sufficient.
Walter Maunsel the serjeant says, as to the first writ to levy of
Nich. de Inteberge 4 marks, that he took of goods of Nicholas in
the hand of the King to the value of the debt, and delivered the
distraints which he took to Walter le Bret late Sheriff. He also
affirms the answers to the other writs. And of all he puts himself
on the country. Issue joined.
The jurors say that all the answers of Walter are true, except that
as to Robert Haket ; for after Robert made the deforcement, the
serjeant could have taken elsewhere in his bailiwic goods of Robert
to the value of the debt if he wished. Therefore it is adjudged that
William recover against Walter his damages, to be taxed by the
court. And Walter, who could have levied the money and did not,
in heavy mercy. And as to the other plaints, it is adjudged that
William be iirinercy for false claim. And William is told that he
may sue against Walter le Bret if it seem expedient to him.

April 16. Pleas at Tylagh befoee Edmund le Botiller, Gustos, on Friday
BEFORE Easter.
England- The King sent his writ patent under the great seal of England :
Edwa<rd, &c., to John Wogan, his justiciar, and master Thomas
Cantok, chancellor of Ireland. The Dean and Chapter of Ferns
have signified that their church is vacant by the death of S. late
Bishop, and prayed licence to elect. The King has given licence,
and hereby empowers Wogan and Cantok to give the royal assent
to the election and restore the temporalities. Teste at Wylburgham,
14 Feb. a. r. xxxiii.
On this, Master Robert Walrand, Canon of said church
proffered letters : To the King, Nicholas, Dean and the Chapter
of Ferns, intimate that they have, in place of Simon, late Bishop,
who has gone the way of all flesh, elected to the bishopric master
Robert Walerand, the bearer. They pray the Royal assent. Dated
in the Chapter of Ferns, Saturday before the feast of the Chair
of S. Peter a.d. 1304.
Therefore the Archbishop of Dublin, the Metropolitan, is directed
to do what is his in the matter.
Afterwards on the morrow, to wit, Saturday, the vigil of Easter,
the Elect proffered lettea's of the Archbishop, by commission made to
Nicholas, Bishop of Leyghlin and Master Thomas Cantok upon ex-
amination of said election. Likewise letters patent of said Bishop.
R. archbishop of Dublin to N. bishop of Lechlin and master
Thomas Cantok, canon of the church of Ferns, gives authority to
confirm the election of master Robert Walreand, and signify it to
the King or his locum tenens in Ireland, and all others whom the
matter touches. Dated at Swerdes, on Wednesday, after Palm
Sunday, a.d. 1305.
N. bishop of Lechlin to Edmund the butler (Piticerfia) locum
tenens of the Justiciar. He has received letters from the Arch-
bishop of Dublin (setting out the preceding). Having examined all
things belonging to said election he has found it in form and matter
canonically celebrated. By authority of the Metropolitan he has
confirmed the election, and prays that Edmund will vouchsafe to do
what is his in the matter. Dated at Tylagh in OfPelmyth, 15 Kal-
ends of May, a.d. 1305.
And because it seems to the court expedient that the Archbishop
himself, the Metropolitan, should, by his letters, certify the court as
to the confirmation. And likewise for that the' Elect has not here
the common seal of the Chapter to seal his letters-patent (that this
grace shall not be prejudicial to the King"), which he now proffers
under his own seal, the Elect is told to have the letters here on
"Tuesday.
And the Elect prays that he be admitted to do fealty to the
King; and that the temporalities be delivered to him. Because he
says it is not necessary, as it seems to him, to procure letters of the
Archbishop himself, the Bishop of Leghlin commissary of the Arch-
bishon having confirmed the election. And as to the other letter under
his own seal, he will find security to the King that he will have
it here on Tuesday under the seal of the Chapter. And the Dean,
archdeacon, treasurer, chancellor, and other canons of said church,
now present, undertake this.
And having had discussion and advice upon this, the Elect is
admitted to do fealty. And as to the delivery of the temporalities,
33 EDWARD 1.

it is granted to the Elect that they be delivered to him ; so that he find
to the King sufficient security to answer for the extent of them ot
this present term of Easter, if they ought to belong to the Km^'
And to do this the Elect finds pledges, Nicholas bishop of Leighhn,
Hugh (Jrauereyu, Thomas Aptot, John son of Nicholas, and William
Spynel. And a day is given to him to hear his judgment on the
premises, at the month of Easter, at Dublin. And the Escheat or
is directed to deliver the temporalities.
Afterwards, on Tuesday, in the week of Easter, at Tylaigh, the
Archbishop sent his letters-patent :
R. archbishop of Dublin to the King. He has examined and
canonically confirmed the election of mastei- Robert AValerand, and
signifies this that the King mav vouchsafe to do further what is
his. Dated 15 Kal. May, 1305. '
And the elect sends his letters under his seal and the seal of his
chapter :
Robert Walerandc elect of Ferns, and the Chapter of the sanie. to
all. The King having given the royal assent to the election of
Robert, and directed the Archbishop of Dublin to do what is his in
the matter, and also directed the Justiciar, if the election be con-
firmed bv the Archbishop, then taking, in the ]ving',s place, fealty
due froni Robert, to deliver to him the temporalities; the Elect and
the Chapter for them and their successors, grant that this grace of the
King shall not prejudice the King, or b-e drawn intO' a precedent in
the future. Dated at Tylagh in^Offelmeth 17 April 1305.
Afterwards in the month of Easter, at Dublin, before said locum
tenens, the Treasurer and barons, the justices of the Bench and others
of the King's Council. Having deliberation on the premises it
seemed to all the Council that the locum tenens proceeded rightly
in the business, and that the King has not right to have the issues
of the temporalities of the term of Easter : as the Elect delivered to
the locum tenens said letters patent of the King before the term of
Easter to wit on said Friday, and on Sjiturday the vigil of Easter,
was admitted to do fealty. S:c. Therefore by common assent of the
whole Council, the Elect and his pledges are told to go sine die.

Yet of Pleas of Plaints there, before same, on said day.
Tipperary. Formerly in court before the Custos, on Monday before Mid-lent
last, John de Valle and Johanna, his wife, complained of Walter
son and heir of Robert Maunsel, that he detains from them a writing
of qiiit-claim, which Theobald lo Bret made to Johanna, of a tene-
ment in Kyltolgh, and which she in her widowhood and said Theobald
gave into the custody of said Robert the father, after whose death
the quit-claim came to the hands of Walter. And Vr alter acknow-
ledged this, but had not the writing in court, because he was not
warned befoi'ehand. And he was told to have it at this day.
And Walter now com.es and proffered the writing : Theobald le Bret
son of Maurice le Bret, for himself and his heirs, has remised for
ever to the lady Johanna le Bret widow of his father and her heirs
or assigns, the whole land of Kyltolach which she at anv time held in
dower. Theobald and his heirs will warrant. Witnesses : Walter
le Bret, Walter Unckle, Thomas de S. John, Ric. le Bret, Ralph
Burdoun. Dated at Coylagh on Monday after the feast of SS.
Simon and Jude a.r. xix.
On this Ph. brother and heir of Theobald, who arraigned an assise
of mort d'ancestor against John and Johanna, of said tenements on
account of which they prayed delivery of the writing to rcisist the assise,
was demanded if he had anyt.hing tO' say wherefoTe tb.e writing should
not be delivered tO' thean. He says it ought not to be delivered, nor
should they have any benefit by it. Because Theobald, who made it,
cau,P'ed it to be put in Robert's custodv, in indiiferent custod}' under this
condition : That Johanna should deliver to Theobald the tenement of
Tylanry which she held in dower ; and that she for her dower should
acquire against Geoffrey le Bret the tenement of Coylagh at her own
costs. And these things being done she should have delivery of the
wi-iting. And because she did not do this, but Theobald, by his
ewn suit, at his expense completed the business, the writing ought
not to be given to them.
33 EDWARD 1. ^7
Alemhrane 45of — cont. loOo
John and Johanna say that she at the time of making the writing
was in seisin of Tollanry, and the writing was put in custody of
Robert until she should ' deliver ToUam-y to Theobald discharged ;
seisin of which she delivered. And because the tenement was charged
with 10 marks arrear of rent due to Ph. Baroun, she, by the bauds
of Nich. de Carreu, satisfied the arrears. And this they are ready
to prove. And as to the tenement of Coylagh, which she now holds
as dower, and which Geoffrey then held, it does not seem likely that
Theobald should have acquired it of Geoffrey to the use of Johanna,
but that she who demised to him the tenement of Tyllanry, had need
to make suit to recover her dower to the value' of Tyllanry.
And Philip says that Theobald at his own suit before Robert Bagod
and his fellow justices of the Bench, by judgment^ recovered against
Johanna the tenement of Tyllanry, and likewise at his suit, the tene-
ment of Coylagh was assigned to Johanna for dower.
Asked if the judgments were so made before Robert and his fel-
lows, he says it is not necessary to say this nor to call the record, but
he is ready to aver by the country; and this is sufficient for them as
it appears to him. And he says nothing else wherefore the writing
should not bet given to them. Therefore, a day is given to hear judg-
ment to the month of Easter.
And be it known that the seal of the writing is very fragile and al-
most broken up, but is recognised.
Afterwards at said day at Dublin came the parties, and Philip
says the writing ought not to be given to them, for that Theobald,
when under age, made a writing of quit- claim of said tenements w^hich
remained with said Nicholas. Afterwards, when he came to
lawful age, Johanna seeing that that writing was worth little, on a
new tieiaby between them the C|uit-claim v.-hich John and Jobanna
now demand was made and delivered to Robert to be kept as in in-
different hand, under condition that Johanna should deliver to Theo-
bald said tenement of Tylanre discharged, and that she should at her
own costs acquire the tenement of Coylagh from the hands of Geof-
frey, and hold it for her dower, and then she should have the writing
from Robert; but she never did this, v.'hence it ]iap])pned that Theo-
bald gave to Walter de la Haye, escheator, four marcates of rent to
execute the premises, which Walter, without Johanna, acquired the
tenement of Tylanry to the use of Theobald, and the tenement of
Coylagh to the use of Johanna without her having expended any
counsel or other costs in this behalf. And he prays that this be
enquired.
John and Johanna say he ought not to be admitted to this aver-
ment, because formerly at Cassell, Philip said that he recovered the
tenements by judgment of court before Robert Bagod and his fellows,
and now he says that Walter de la Haye acquired them to the use
of Theobald, and they pray judgment Philiji cannot deny this.

remained in court, notwithstanding the claim of Philip. Philip in

And the Sheriff i-eturned that Walter Maunsel, chief serjeant,
answers that they weiie severally distrained by rent or by corn in the

On this comes Will, de Monte, and says as well for the King as for
himself that the execution was made falsely, for that they have
movable goods sufficient for distraint, so that the King might be
answered of greater issues if Walter had duly done his office. He
says he has four times sued the great distraint against them, and they
do not trouble to appear, because Walter and his sub-.serjeants by
favour make such small distraints, to the damage of the King and him.
Walter says he was not pi'esent, but that Thomas le Hunte, Will,

Agnes came into court and asked that she might plead before
Walter Lenfanut and William Alisaundre, and this was granted to
her by grace of tlie court, and so she was sufficiently notified. And
because she cannot deny this, the Court held that they were
sufficiently warned, and adjudged that they answer further.
Michael says he did no injury. He found his wife seised and
continued the seisin.
Agnes says that a third part of the tenements was of her in-
heritance, and that she pledged it, with a third part of Balykeuan,
to brother Stephen de Foulebourn, for 60 marks, to a certain term.
Afterwards, Ismania:, her parcener of same, pledged to said
Stephen a third part of the tenements of Laghtyok and Balykeuan
belonging to her, for 20 marks, to be paid at the term which
Agnes before fixed, granting that if she should not acquit her
third part, that Agnes might acquit it. Within which term,
brother Stephen enfeoffed Walter, dean of the church of Waterford
of said tenements of Laghtiok and Balykeuan, to hold as he held
them. Afterwards, at the time of payment, Agnes sent to Walter
the dean, David de Offinton, father of said David, with 80 marks to
acquit the tenements, which David acquitted them and took to
his own vise seisin of the tenements, and a charter of said Walter
which Agnes proffers. And after-wards David enfeoffed Agnes of
said tenements, to hold to her and her heirs of Hie chief lords, and
she proffers David's charter.
As to the other third she says that James de Parys and Isabella
his wife, the other parcener of the premises, gave to Agnes by
their charter, Isabella's third part, to hold to her and her heirs of
the chief lords. And a fine thereof was levied between them in
the court of the liberty of Kyldare, and she proffers part of the
fine. So she entei*ed by feoffment and nol by disseisin, and she
prays that it be enquired by the assise.
David son of David says that Walter, dean of Waterford,
enfeoffed David his father and Ralph son of said David. After-
wards David the father, wishing to make the estate of David his
son more secure, gave the tenements to David the son, to hold to

Agnes his wife for their lives, 30 crannocs of wheat and 30 cran.

And, at the suit of Michael and Agnes complaining that error

Michael and Agnes complain that the justices erred in that when
they alleged the shortness of the summons of the assise and of the
attachment, viz., less than 15 days, which was sufficiently proved by
the examination of the Sheriff, the Justices not having respect to

this, but considering anothei" writ to which Ag-nes was attached,
proceeded to take the assise. And they pray that the error be cor-
rected and justice done them.
David says it is not necessary that the summons and attachment
should contain the term of 15 days by the custom hitherto used in
this land ; but it suffices that the parties have such time within
which they may have full advice and counsel, and as Agnes was
attached to another like writ of same tenements this attachment
containing ten days suffices for her.
And, because having inspected the record it appears to the court
that the Justices erred in that they proceeded to the taking of the
assise when it sufficiently appeared to them that the summons and
attachment did not coiitain the term of 15 days, as by common law
they ought to contain, nor had they consideration that Michael,
against whom the aissise past, was not attached to the first writ
under colour of which attachment it appeared to the Justices that
it was not necessary that the attachment to this writ should contain
the space of 15 days; it is adjudged that the record and judgment
be annulled ; and that Michael and Agnes have again their seisin
of said tenements as they had when the error intervened. And

had not sufficient warrant to take the assise, for that the original
writ of Margaret, which supposes her to be under age, ought to con-
tain in it that she is under age, which words are not inserted in the
writ, and so the justices proceeded to the taking of the assise without
warrant. He says also that they erred in that they proceeded with-
out Johanna, mother of Margaret, with whom the tenements were
jiven in frank marriage, which Johanna was present in court when
he alleged that without her they should not proceed to take the assise,
and prayed judgment thereon. Which allegation he is ready to
aver by supplement of the record of the justices, as it is not contained
in the record sent. He says also that the justices erred in this, that
when John and John wei'e jointly justices assigned to take the
assise, John de Ponte alone proceeded to take it and to render judg-
ment. And this he is ready to aver by the record of the justices, or
other ways which the court may adjudge.
Margaret says they should not proceed to the reading and correc-

crannocs of oats, he then could have taken 60 crannocs of every kind
of corn and many other goods, which John by favonr of Maurice
carried away, so that 'now they cannot be found. And whereas the
Serjeant presents that Ralph is in possession of 16 crannocs oats, he

Ric. Gernoun carried away.

inheritance of sir Water de Lacy, ought each year to receive of the
King 50 marks for the castle and town of Drochda on the side of Meath,

King. Also he prays a writ to search the rolls of the Exchequer

was not used before the time of this treasurer. Aud if the seneschal
returns a writ which is against the franchise as was always used :
" Nichil actum est quia contra libertatem "' ; the Treasurer amerces
them and issues the amei'cements in the summons. Wherefore he
prays that he be suffered to have his usage as the King commands by
his patent. And if the usage of returning writs ought to be re-
dressed for the King, and the safety of the franchise, he is ready to
do it. And the new amercements of the time of this Treasurer may
be annulled by grace of the King and Council. Also he prays that
they redress the wrongs which the justices in eyre of Drochda have
done to him and his men, seeing that they are exeiupt from any of
the counties of the King; and the Justice had a writ to do this,
but has not done it. Also the justices of the Beaich of Diueline
issue writs to his seneschal of his franchise to summon knights and
other free men out of the franchise to be on assises and juries
before them, of matter not touching the King or Queen, against
what has hitherto been used. Of which he prays remedy. And as
he is now of great age he prays that he be not required to travel, if
there be not very great occasion.
By pretext of which in presence of Master Thomas de Chadesworth,

As to the third article, because it does not yet appear to the court
that Geoffrey and Peter his son made such provisions at the mandate
of the King, he is told to have the rolls and writs searched that he
did it at the mandate of the King, and then let the expenses and
costs be enquired of.
As to the fourth article of amercements of his seneschal by the pre-
sent treasurer, as the Treasurer is now in England, Geoffrey freely
awaits his coming from England.

As to the fifth article of injuries done by the justices in eyre, be-
cause Matilda, his wife, of whose inheritance the liberty of Trym wa,s,
is now dead, he says he will wait until he shall have his wife's heir to
sue with him.
As to the sixth article touching the justices of the Bench it is
testified by all the King's ministers that it was not accustomed to
make tenants of said liberty come before the justices of the Bench
for assises or juries, except in pleas which could not conveniently be
determined without jurors of said liberty. But in the eyre of said
justices for want of knights in co. Meath for certain writs of right,
certain knights of said liberty were elected to make recognition of
great assises. And afterwards tliosci pleas were attermined before the
justices of the Bench, and so depend there. And Geoffrey saying that
he would not wish the plaintiffs to- be delayed of tlieir right, freely
granted for this time that thei knightsi, so elected from his liberty in
said eyre, may come before the justices of the Bench to make recogni-
tion that justice may be done to the partieiS!. So' that however, this be
noti drawn into custom that it should prejudice him or Matilda/'s heirs
in future. And it is granted to him, saving the right of the King.
And at the instance of Geoffrey said writ with said articles is sent to
the King.
Afterwards, in the three weeks of Easter, a.r. xxxiv., at Dublin,
the Sheriff of Meath by precept of the King caused to come a jury
to enquire what expense Peter son of Geoffrey laid out for keeping

feast of S. James before the Gule of August cn.r. xviii. to the octave
of S. Michael following, and was continually making said custody
with 16 men at arms, 20 hobblers, and 40 footmen at least, and often
kept there many more. So that during that custody no ill was
perpetrated by the Irish in those parts. They say also that Peter
received nothing of the King's money for that cvistody, but his own
money, and money which he had of Geoffrey his father, of 50 marks
of scutage of the fees, assigned to him for this purpose by John
archbishop of Dublin, Justiciar of Ireland, and the King's council,
whereof Geoffrey now prays allowance.

John son of Thomas, maliciously feigning that she was dead, forcibly

under protection of the King. The King had directed John to
restore them, but he altogether refused. And although Agnes
arraigned an assise of Novel disseisin against John and others and
recovered seisin by judgment of the court ; she had not yet obtained
restitution of her goods taken by John or any satisfaction for the
trespass. But John increasing his former trespass forcibly entered
her manors, threshed and carried away her corn, drove off her
cattle, broke her chests and took her goods found there ; and took
and imprisoned her bailiffs until they delivered to John the rents

And Agnes by her attorney and John now come. And Agnes
proffers another writ :

mands Wogan to do justice without delay and make return to the
King in his next parliament in England. Teste, at Westminster, 1
April, a.r. xxxiii.
And the writs having been read. Agnes complains that John son
of Thomas maliciously feigning cause, beginning in the vigil of S.
Hilary, a.r. xxxi., and continuing to the feast of S. Michael follow-
ing, took into his hand, her lands and goods, wheat, barley, cats, and
other grain to the value of 680/. ; afei'S, oixen, cows, she'ep, pigs,
goats, and other animals to the value of 300/., all her goods being
. in protection of the King. The King at her suit wrote to John to
restore them, which writ was delivered to him on Tuesday in the
quinzaine of Easter, at Dublin. John, despising the mandate, did
nothing. Agnes, by assise of Novel disseisin before Wogan, recovered
seisin and obtained it, although John would not satisfy her for her
goods, but afterwards forcibly entered her manors, viz., Rathmor
and Maynoth, in co. Kildare, Athdar, Castle-Robert
Cromouth, Albeckah, Wyrgedy, Grene, and . . . . co
Limerick, and threshed the corn there to the value of 100/., and
drove away cattle to the value of 40/., and her chests ....

detained them in prison for three days until they gave him the rents
and other issixes levied to her use, viz., of Robert le Blound 18/. and
of David le Blound 13/. ; in contempt of the King, as all her posses-
sions are in his protection, by which she is damaged to 2,200/.
John defends and sAys he ought not to answer to this writ, because
in said writ it is contained that the King directs his Justiciar to do
justice according to law and the custom of this land. And he says
that the King has here his chancery of which there issue and ought
to issue all original writs by which as well the magnates as others
of this land ought, and are accustomed to plead. And if the
Justiciar here or the chancQillor of this land wish to make writs of the
chancery used here or foimded on the common law or statutes, he
will be prepared to answer. And as nothing is contained in the said
writs which is not pleadable by common law he prays judgment if
he ought to answer to these writs of suggestion which are not used
in chancery. And to such writs never was anyone of Ireland
accustomed to answer, who challenged this. And especially when the
King commanded his justiciar that having heard the caus-e."? of the
men of this land, he should cause justice to be done to them of all
injuries done to them by the King's ministers. He prays that thev
33 EDWARD I. *3"?

be not subjected to such injury to be made to answer to such writs
nob used, against the common laws and the custom of this land.
And Agnes by her attorney says that the protection which she
has of the King is sealed with his great seal of England under the
teste of the King ; and likewise the writ directed to John to restore
her lands and chattels; which sufficiently put aside the chancery of
this land. And so it is not competent to have in this land a writ
formed in this case. She says also that from the time of the con-
quest innumerable writs were directed to the Justiciar of Ireland
from the chancery of England to do justice to persons complaining.
And such pleas hitherto were held in the form of a commission of
oyer and terminer. And as John does not answer to her plaint
whereof she has sufficiently counted against him and brought her
suit, she prays judgment of him as undefended.
And John says that never in this land was it adjudged that any-
one should answer to such writ of suggestion from the chancery of
England if the defendant willed to challenge the writ. And he says
that if the Court adjudges that he ought to answer further to this
writ, he v/ill answer sufficiently.
And Agnes prays that if John wishes to say anything further he
should answer at once ; otherwise he should be held to be un-
defended.
And John says, that he ought not to be held to be undefended,
when he challenged the form of the writ, and he will be ready to
answer further if the Court adjudge he ought. Day is given to hear
judgment in the octaves of Holy Trinity, because the coming of John
Wogan, Justiciar, in the meantime is expected.
Afterwards at that day, continued to the three weeks of Holy
Trinity at Dublin, before John Wogan, justiciar, come Agnes, by
her attorney, and John in person. And Agnes prays judgment of
John as undefended. And John says as before that if the Court
adjudge that he ought to answer to this writ he will answer
sufficiently. And asked if he wish to say anything else, he says No.
And on this came Ric. de Burgo, earl of Ulster, Peter son of
James de Bermyngham, Eustace le Poer, and other magnates of this
land, for themselves and the whole community, and say that the King
at their iDetition sent his writ to his justiciar here, that having heard
the causes of the men of this land of certain, injuries done to them
by the ministers of the King against the liberties granted to their
ancestors, and the common customs hitheito used in this land, upon
these things which without the King may be determined, that he
cause full justice to be done. And they say that it will be against
the said liberties and customs if John or any other in this land be
compelled to answer to such writ, which is not usual in the chancery.
Especially as Agnes may well have her recovery in this case by
writ of the chancery of this land. And they pray that in this plea
it be not proceeded with in their prejudice, against said liberties and
customs.
And because the Justiciar and others of the Council are too much
occupied at present about the ordering of peace in the marches, a
day is given to the parties to the quinzaine of S. John Baptist.
And having heard the caiisei of John showing that he is about

without consulting th-o King, a day is given to thei parties by

Kildare.
Walter Wogan, for the King, showed the Court that whereas
the lands of Peter de la More, deceased, in Bekaneston, who held of
the King in capite, were taken into the hand of the King, by
reason of the minority of William son and heir of Peter, which lands
came toi the hand of Thomas de Snyterby, to whom they were
committed until the lawful age of the heir. William de Sully
eloined said William the son froin Thomas, and took him to Wales
and detained him there until he should know him to be of full age.
And now he has returned with the heir, who is said to be of full
age, and has caused the heir to intrude in the tenement, and after-
wards procured himself tO' be enfeoffed of it without the licence of the
King, and so holds himself by pretext of the feoffment, claiming
there fee and freehold, without the heir having proved his age in
court, or having seisin asi of inheritance by livery of the court.,
as is the custom. And he prays for the King that the tenement be
taken into the King's hand. On which the Sheriff was directed to
take and safely keep it ; and to tell the heir and William to come
to the coui't and claim his right if he will.
Afterwards at suit of Thomas complaining that the heir was
maliciously eloined from him by William de Sully, William being
attached comes, and Thomas complains as above. The heir in the
lifetime of Peter with his assent was married by Thomas. William
de Sully eloined the heir and took him to parts of Wales where
the King's writ does not run, and kept him there as if imprisoned,
so that he was not, nor yet is, free to go where he will. And
William now has entered Bekaneston claiming fee and freehold under
colour of a feoffment, which he says he has from the heir, without
licence.
William acknowledges that William the son is with him, William
de Sully, without any eloinment out of the custody of Thomas. Be-
cause, when the heir came to him he was with friends and relations
and not with Thomas, and in seisin of the tenement with Thomas'
will. As his friend, without coercion, the heir 'vent with him to
Wales and elsewhere. And he prays that this be enquired. As
tO' the entry, he says that he does not claim fee or freehold in the
tenement.
Thomas says that William eloined the heir maliciously. And.
however William may say that he does not claim fee or freehold,
ho entered the tenement by feoffment which he acquired from the
33 EDWARD I. 79
Memhrane 54 — cont. 1305.
heir without licence. And William again intruded after the
tenement was taken into the hand of the King, and is now m
seisin. And he prays that this be enquired. And William likewise.
The Sberiff was commanded to summon a jury in the quinzaine of
S. John Baptist. And William is told to have the heir to render
him up.
Afterwards, at that day, at Tristildennot, before John Wogan,
came Thomas and William and the heir.
The jurors say that William, son and heir of Peter, who is ill
humoured {male est morigeratus), by the counsel of some of his
relations to whom he adhered, eloined himself from Thomas, whose
daughter he had married while Peter lived, which wife is now dead.
And by the same counsel he joined himself to William, and remained
in his company and household by agreement between them that
William de Sully should have his lands in fee by a certain form
between them provided. And because it appeared to William that
the heir was not then of full age, he brought him to Wales to
remain there until his lawful age, fearing that if he should remain
in his own parts, he would easily be indviced to contract elsewhere,
because he is vei-y changeable. And so he freely remained in Wales
and elsewhere far fi'om his own part's until William understood him
to be of full age. And then he brought him back, and made him
enter hia inheritance of Bekaneston and elsewhere. And afterward
he acquired said tenement in fee by feoft'ment of the heir and took
fealty of Ric. de Lyuet who has to wife Nichola widow of Peter,
and mother of the heir, who holds in dower a third part of the
tenement ; without the heir having proved his age or obtained
seisin by licence or livery of the King's court. They say that
on the day when it was pleaded in Court at Dublin between Thomas
and William concerning the eloinment of the heir, William had
his plough ploughing in the tenement, although the tenement was
taken into the hand of the King. William however, did not know
it, and immediately when he returned from Dublin he caused his
plough to be removed.
Asked as to the value of the tenement, they say that the two
parts contain 72 acres, each acre worth lid. yearly. But Nichola
holds thereof 8 acres in dower for the value of other lands which
the heir warranted her. They say that Nichola holds likewise in
dower 36 acres. And there is there a mill which is worth yearly
40.S., but Nichola has a third part in dower. Therefore, let two parts
be in the hand of the King [confiniied on hack of memhrane~\ and
let the Sheriff answer for the issues ; and let William de Sully
await judgment.
And because it appears that Ricard did fealty to William for
the dower of Nichola without licence, the Sheriff is commanded to
take the dower into the hand of the King. Afterwards it is
granted that Thomas may have the crop of the two parts, to answer
to the King for the value, if it ought to belong to the King.

Pleas of assises at Kilmehallok, before John de Ponte and
Hugh de Lees, justices assigned, on Monday after the Circum-
cision a.r. xxxiii.
Assise of Novel disseisin. If John Goly, Elizabeth daughter of
John Andreu, and John son of John Tyntagel disseised Henry
son of Adam Guly, of his freehold in Corbalydaly, on© messuage
and two carucates of land.
And John Guly comes by John Tyntagel his bailiff and says
that the assise ought not to be taken between them because John
recovered the tenements now sought by assise of Novel disseisin
against Henry before Roger Andreu and his fellows justices
assigned. And this he is ready to prove.
Henry says that he complains of a prioa* disseisin and injury
done to him by John, and he is ready to prove this by assise.
John Tyntagel says he claims nothing and did no injury.
Elizabeth, h\ John her guardian, says that the assise ought
not to be taken against her, because John Andreu, her father,
died seised, and immediately after his decease she entered by
hereditary succession. And she prays judgment if she, who is
under age, who cannot know the act of her ancestors, ought to
answer until she conijei to* her lawful age.
To this Henry answers that he has a disseisor and a tenant
and this suffices him, viz., John Guly and Elizabeth.
The Jurors say that Adam Guly father of Henry formerly held
the tenements. Intending to take his journey to the Roman
courti. and, before setting out, he put his sou Pleury in seisin, and
being under age he gave him a guardia,n, Walter the chaplain,
to protect the tenement, who, in the name of Henry, continued
seisin for half a year and more'. Afterwards Walter came to sir
Thomas de Clare asking his aid to maintain his seisin, and gave
him two stacks of corn for his goodwill. Afterwards John under-
stood that Adam on his journey coming from the Roman court;
died, and he entered the tenements as brother and heir of Adam.
And when Walter the guardian of Henry knew this, he came to
Thomas de Clare asking him to remove John. And when John

knew tliis, he for feai' of Sir Thomas left the teiiemeuts. After-
wards by reason of a contract betAve^ii John and Roger Andren,
John obtained a writ of Novel disseisin by counsel of Roger,
and so that Roger should have the tenements of the feoffment of
John after they should be recovered. Afterwards John recovered
the tenements by aid of Roger, before him and his fellow justices.
And when he was seised by judgment of the King's Coiu-t, he
enfeoffed Roger. And Roger died seised. After the death of
Roger, John Andreu as his heir entered and continued seisin for
his life, and after his death Elizabeth as his daughter and heir
entered.
Asked as to the age of Elizabeth ; they say that she is between
10 and 11 years. Asked if it be disseisin or not; they say that
they know not, but pray aid of the court.
Upon this a day is given to the parties before the Chief
Justiciar in the octaves of the Purification, to hear judgment.
Damages, 42 mai'ks.
Afterwards at that day came Henry in person, and John G-uly and
others by bailiffs. And having inspected the record it ajjpears to
the Court tha^t tlie parties did not fully j^lead. Therefore a day is
given to the parties to plead and hear judgment before the said
justices assigned in the three weeks of the Purification. And the

At which day it is recorded by the Justices that the parties fully

of Gilbert Oneyl, a f-elon hanged, to answer to the Exchequer in Dub-
lin for the value ; the Sheriff was commanded that having taken suffi-
cient security he should deliver the goods.
The Sheriff returned that Geoffrey did not find sufficient security

Tipperary. The Sheriff wa,s commanded that of the goods of Stephen, arch-
bishop of Cassell, who died intestate, he should levy 30/. for Walter
Wogan, of a debt which the Archbishop owed him, and which Walter
in court before John Wogan, at Cassell, recovered against the Dean
and Chapter of Cassell, to whom the administi'ation of the goods of
the Archbishop ought to belong because he died intestate.
The Sheriff returned that he commanded Walter Maunsell, chief

came to the hands of Walter le Bret, on account of which there are
taken of the goods of Walter 40 acres of wheat and 40a. of oats
value 40r/. an acre. They are exposed for sale by Henry Urban

Jerusalem of Ireland, locum tenens ol the Ju.siticiar, directing him
to resist the malice of the Irish of the mountains of Leinster who set
themselves at war, that he should put guard in the marches of those
parts as appears by the writ. Adam for said expedition took 30/.
of the money of Johanna de Valence, lady of said liberty, and spent
them on the guards assigned for said resistance, because he could not
at once levy tallages from the communitv of said liberty for the
expedition. Of which 30/. he had to satisfy Johanna without the
money being restored to him. And although afterwards for defence
of said marches a tallage was granted, yet Adam could not levy that
money because many of the liberty complained to the Justiciar that
innumerable tallages were levied from them for such guards, as
well in the time of Adam the seneschal, as in other times, and the
money arising from it was not expended for the utility of the peace,
as they were granted, to the great impoverishment of the people
of those parts.
And because it appears to the Justiciar here that Adam made
satisfaction to Johanna of said 30/. which he so received, and ex-
pended for said resistance ; and that at comjolaint of divers men of
said liberty, suggesting that divers tallages were levied and not ex-
pended in the way for which they were granted, auditors were
assigned by the Justiciar, to wit, Gilbert de Sutton and Henry
Estraound, to make account thereof. Who, having called the
collectors of siich tallages and others concerned in making" the account,
found that a large sum of money was levied ; for that certain of
the liberty paid what was due and more, and many paid little or
nothing, as Gilbert and Henry testified before the Justiciar.
Therefore the seneschal of the liberty and said Henry were directed
that, having inspected the account, they should, of what remained
with Henry of the clear arreax*ages of said account, levy 30/. for
Adam, in satisfaction of said 30/. which he expended for the service

lowed J. D., who was not able to escape from him, and having drawn

at Castelknoc, and there armed himself, and mounted his horse (ron-
cinus), and rode to the house of the mother of J. D., whei-e John

plaint of divers poor men, complaining that John Tyrrell on Friday
before the quinzaine of S. John the Baptist took their goods, viz. —
bread, flesh, fish, and other victuals for sale, against their will, the
Mayor had him attached to answer before him and the bailiffs of the
city, as is customai-y. And because John could not deny this, they
arrested him until he should make satisfaction for the goods so taken.
And he, remaining in the house of pleas, in custody of a Serjeant of
the city, where he was arrested, took an axe {^yarfJia) and forcibly left,
which the Mayor learning caused him again to be attached and ar-
rested, until he gave his horse as a gage for said debt.
Judgment that John Tyrrell be in mercy for false claim. And be-
cause it appears that he took the goods of the men against their will,
for which the Mayor had him arrested, as he rightly should do, from
which arrest he went away by force and against the will of his keeper,
it is adjudged that John Tyrell be committed to gaol.

wherefore, without licence of the King, he caused to be married
Ricard son and heir of Hugh son of Audoen, who held of the King in
capite, whose marriage belonged to the King, after tho death of
Hugh.
And the Sheriff returned that Hugh {so) de Lacy was not found in
County Meath after receipt of this writ, nor has in the county where-
by he may be attached. Therefore the Sheriff in heavy mercy, taxed
by the court at 100s. And the Sheriff is again commanded to attach
Walter de Lacy, and have him to answer the King.
Master Raljoh le Blound v. Ric. Gernoiui, put themselves on a juiy

Taylour, estimated at 8 crannocs, for arreai's ol rent which John
owed for a tenement which he held of him, by delivery of John, before
Mail!', le Reue, locum tenens of John Bacouu, chief serjeant of fee
in the said county, took the corn intO' the hand of the King, and
delivered it to Ralph.
Same v. said Maurice, for that John le Taylour in the quinzaine of
S. Martin last had goods in Maurice's bailiwic sufficient to levy 21/.,
which John in court before Walter Lenfaunt and his fellows, justices
itinerant at Drogheda on the side of Meath, acknowledged that he
owed to Ralph, which goods by favour of Maurice were carried away
by John.
Jury remains to be taken for want of jurors. And let the Sheriff
ha:ve Rob. Mannenen, Eustace Rys, Roger Kenfer. Will. Leueknicht,
Ph. Hulle, Thomas Peronel, and Geoffrey de la Roche, jurors sum-
moned, to make the jury, and to hear their judgment ; and also tot

Ricard's lands in Clongel, from the feast of S. Peter ad vincula, a.r.

And the Sheriff returns that he commanded John Bacoun, chief
Serjeant, who answers : For said debt there are taken into the hand
of the King, in the hands of the tenants of Ricard, ten marks of rent
of the term of S. John, ready to be paid to demandant. He has
not other goods in County Meath. The Sheriff is commanded to pay
this 10 marks and the rent, from term to term, to John until the debt

Tipperarj. Eustace le Poer came into court, and acknowledged that he would
not sue against Walter de Valle and his household (familiares), for
any trespasses, whereof it was pleadecl between them in court before

in Scotland, in the company of Geoffrey le Poer, prays that suit of

And enquiry being made, it appeared by the Jury that in the time
of Henry the King's father, when the liberty of Kildare was in the
hand of Agnes de Vescy, a contention arose between William and
Michael, theu his servingman, in the town of Cloncoury, in the
King's street. William would have struck him, and Michael got
away from him, and with an arrow shot William, and gave him a
wound of which he died. And immediately after the felony he fled
to the parts of Meath, and did not return. And because it appeared
to th«i bailiffs of Agnes that Michael forestaJIavit William when he
shot him, so that the cognizance of the deed belongs altogether to the
King's court, the bailiffs did not interfere as to the felony, so that it
has slept until now.
And for good service which Michael did in the war, suit of the
King's peace is pardoned to him for said death and forestallum.
Kildare Hugh son of Thomas and John son of Laurence Sweyn acknowledge
that they owe to Will. Douce, merchant, 24s. and 12 stones of wool.

best' and mo'st discreet men, knights and other free men, of his
bailiwic, to certify the Justiciar on all affairs touching the King's
peace.
And afterwards the Sheriff, by another writ, was commanded that
he should cause to come all assises, etc., here at this day, according
to the tenor of the former writ, because the Justiciar was not able to
be present at that day, and that he summon the parties and all who
should be hex'e.
Assise of Novel disseisin. If Mich. Talebot and Agnes his wife Kildare.
disseised David son of David de Offinton, of his freehold in Baly-
keuan, one messuage and six carucates of land, 100 acres of wood,
30a. of meadow, and 60a. of moor.
Agnes says that one Walter Tuyt died seised of the tenement,
after whose death, Gerrlna, Sibilla, and Imania, his sisters, entered
as next heirs, and endowed Elena his widow. Afterwards Gerrina
gave her purparty to Agnes her daughter. And Agnes with Imania
gave their purparties to brother Stephen de Folebourne, then Justiciar
of Ireland, in gage for 80 marks, tO' hold for a certain term; within
which if Agnes and Imania did not pay the money, then the tenement
should remain to Stephen and his heirs for ever. Afterwards Ste-
phen gave his estate to Walter de Folebourne his brother. After-
wards, the end of the term approaching, it was agreed between Agnes
and Imania, that Agnes should have Imania's purparty to Agnes
and her heirs for ever. And Agnes obtained the money, and gave it
to David de Offinton the father lo pay Walter for acquittance of the
tenements. He paid the money, and procured himself to be en-
feoffed by Walter. On which Agnes went to England to complain of
David. And for fear of that plaint, David enfeoffed Agnes of the
tenement, to hold to her and her heirs. And afterwards Elena
having deceased, Agnes entered two parts of the dower, by reason of
heir tenure. Afterwards she acquired the purparty of Sibilla, by
fine levied between them in the court of the Liberty of Kildare, and
held the tenement fully for four years and more, before David the
father married her, without injury or disseisin to David the son. And
she prays that this be enquired by the assise.
And David says that David the father was enfeoffed of the tene-
ments and died seised as of fee. After whose death he, David the
son, entered as son and heir, and continued his seisin until Michael
and Agnes disseised him. And of this he puts himself on the assise.
Michael does not come, but Theobald Talebot answers as his
bailiff, and says that Michael did no injury or disseisin. And of this
puis himself on the assise. Therefore let assise be taken, which re-
mains to be taken for want of recognitors.
Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to have at the next coming in

Kildare. Assise of Novel disseisin. If Will, le Hopere disseised Matthew
de Tristeldoi-mod of his freeJiold in Ti'isteldermod, two messuages with
appurtenances.
William says the assise ought not to be taken, because he had
entry by Matthew, by his charter, which he proffers.
Matthew says that the charter, which is his deed, ought not to
stay the assise, because, after the making of the charter he was in
seisin for four years and moi'e, until William disseised him. Let the
assise be taken.
John Chaumberleyn, one of the recognitors, does not come ; there-
fore in mercy.
The Jurors say that Matthew, who was bound to Will. Fautinel,
in a sum of money as a pledge, fearing that he would be pressed for
the money, because the principal debtor was not sufficient, enfeoffed
William his brother of said messuages, and gave to him all his
chattels in them, except one book, so that nothing of his would
be found to levy from for Will. Fautynel. So, however, that it was
privately agreed between them, that Matthew should have again said
messuages with said chattels when he would, and should hold them
as he before held them. And afterwards Matthew re-entered the
messuages, and held them for four years and more, William dwelling
with Matthew in his service and not reclaiming them, but peacefully
permitted him. to hold the messuagesi. And afterwards it happened
that Matthew left the town of Tristeldermod, to promote his affairs
elsewhere. And when he returned, and wished to enter the
mcuSBuao-es, William, augered by a. contention between them before
Matthew's departure from the town, held himself in the tenements
claiming freehold in them by pretext of said feoffment, and did not
permit Matthew to enter the tenements, except in one chamber
within the tenements of which Matthew is in seisin.
And because it appears to the Com-t that said feoffment, so
conditional, cannot be sufficient title of freehold for William,
especially as Matthew, by reason of the condition, re-entered the
tenements and held them for a long time, without any reclaim of

William ; and so the second entry which William made in the tene-
ments, under colour of the former feoffment, ought to be had foT a
disseisin; it is. adjudged that Matthew recover his seisin, and his
damages taxed at half a mark.
And because it appears that Matthew is in seisin of one chamber
within the said messuages, and was so on the day of suing the writ ;
therefore he is in mercy for false claim (pardoned).

Michael, by Theobald Talebot his bailiff, and Agnes, come and say
that assise ought not be made because at the time of suing the writ,
to wit 25 May in this year, David the son was in seisin of the tene-
ments. And they pray judgment.
David acknowledges this, but the assise ought not to be delayed
by this, for he says that formerly, before justices assigned, an
assise passed between the same persons of same tenements by which
David recovered them against Michael and Agnes. And afterwards
at suit of Michael and Agnes, before Edmund le Butiller, the Gustos,
the record of the assise, and the judgment given, for certain errors
were annulled, by which on said say it was adjudged that Michael
and Agnes should have again their seisin of the tenements as_they
had when the errors arose. And lest they should privately alien the
tenements in deceit of David, he immediately after said judgment
rendered, sued this writ. And so this assise ought to be made, notj
withstanding Michael and Agnes had not seisin when said judgment
was made for them. And he prays judgment.
Afterwards in the quinzaine of S. Michael at Tristeldermot came
the parties.
Afterwards on Saturday the morrow of Epiphany a.r. xxxv. at
the Naas came the parties, and because David cannot deny that he
w^as in ,seisin on the day of suing the writ, to wit the 5 May fi-r.

Peter and Margaret answer as tenants. Peter says he found
Margaret his wife seised when he married her. And Margaret says
she had entry by Will. Bureleye wliO' gave the tenements to her
first husband in frank marriage with her. • -
Peter answers as bailiff of William, and says that assise ought not
to be taken, because the land where the view was made is called
Donnaghcompre and not Donnaghcombre. And he prays that this
be enquired by the assise. Therefore let the truth be enquired.
And Will. Gerueys, one of the recognitors, comes not; therefore in

Simon comes and answers as a tenant, that assise ought not to be
between them, because he who wishes to claim such profit in another's
soil should show some special deed by which he claims to have such
profit. And as William cannot shcnv sucii title, he prays judgment.
William says he acquired the tenements of one Thomas son of
Philip, by fine levied between them, which Thomas at the time of
such acquisition was seised of the taking of said estover in said m'goiI ;
and afterwards William after said feoffment made to him by Thomas,
was in seisin of the same estover for a great time, until Simon and
the others disseised him. And so it is not necessary to have another
title in this case than to prove the seisin of his feoffor on the day
that he enfeoffed him, and afterwards his own continiious seisin with-
out interruption. And of this he puts himself in judgment.
Simon says that William by his men, sometimes by night, as if by
stealth, entered the wood, and cut and candied away certain trees,
but never had other seisin of taking such estover, and of this he puts
himself on the assise.
David le Mazcner answers as bailiff- for the others, as tenants with
Simon. He says that William never had seisin of which he could be
disseised. And of this he puts himself on the assise. Let assise be

To this, Philip says that the assise ought not to be delayed by
that writing, nor he excluded from action, because at the time of
the making of the writing, Theobald was under age. And this he
is prepared to prove.
And John and Johanna say that he ought not to get to that proof,
because formerly before Edmund le Botiller, Gustos of Ireland, he
acknowledged that Theobald was of full age at the time of making
of said writing. And on this they call the record of the rolls of
said Gustos. And Philip likewise.
And because the plea concerning the making of said writing

rolment remains before him, a day is given to the parties before the

sworn say that it is not to the damage of the King if he should
grant to John and the others that they should give the tenements
to the Prior, because all the tenements are of the fee of the Earl
of Gloucester in his liberty of Kilkenny. 5i acres of said 24 acres
to' be granted by Jolin are of the burgagery of Kenles, and John
holds them of the heir of John son of Geoffrey lord of Kenles, who
is under age and in custody of the Earl of Gloucester, of whom
the heir holds that and his other lands. And John son of Thomas
does no service thereout, and he who holds the residue of that
burgage renders to the lord each year Zd. for the whole burgage.
And so each burgess renders for each burgage of that town. And
said John holds the residue of said land of the Prior by fealty and

Palmer that he may hold to him and his heirs, of the King and
his heirs, by the services due, one messuage and one carucate of
land in Collan by Tristeldermot, of which Adam son of Ph. Beneyt
who held of the King in capite enfeoffed him without the King's
licence. And the King commanded them that having taken from
Gilbert a reasonable fine for the trespass done in acquiring the
premises without licence and entering them, they should certify
under their seal to the King wliat they should have done. Nothing
having been done, th-e King again directs that having examined the
inquisition, and taken reasonable fine from Gilbert for his trespass,
they should without delay certify what they do, returning the in-
quisition to the King in England. Teste at Walsingham, 2 Feb.

Pleas before Robert Bagot and his fellows justices of the Bench,

Dublin. Jordan de Exon' and Imania. his wife, formerly in
the court of the liberty of Kilkenny, demanded against John
Cristofre, 94 acres of land, 6 acres of meadow in Kilrothan, of which
John Deuerous grandfather of Imania, whose heir she is, was
seised in his demesne as of fee, when he died. Arid John came
in said liberty and called to warranty Ph. Cristofre, wlio had
nothing in the liberty by which he could be distrained. For which
the plea came here by writ of the King.
And the parties come. And Philip warrants John, and calls
further to warranty John Fanyn, who now comes by his attorney,
and demands from Philip what he has by which he is bound to
warrant. And Philip says John is bound to warrant him, because
Thomas Fanyn father of John gave the tenements to Adam
Cristofre in frank marriage with Rosmunda his niece, mother of
Philip, whose heir he is, wherefore John as son aud heii' of
Thomas, by reason of the reversion, is bound to warrant.
And John says that Thomas Fanyn did not so give the tene-
ments with Rosmunda. And of this he puts himself on the
country ; and Philip likewise. Let a jury be summoned at the
quinzaine of S. John the Baptist.

And John Fanyn does not come, and formerly he made default
after he was summoned. And the Sheriff of Kildare was com-
manded to take into the hand of the King, of the land of John
Fanyn to the value of U. Is. 4:d. yearly. And the ?!heriff rrnirns
that John Fanyn has nothing in county Kildare, by which the
value in writ contained can be taken, because what he has he holds
for the term of life ; and that he summoned John Fanyn to be
here at this day to answer.
It is adjudged that Jordan and Imania recover their seisin. And
John Fanyn in mercy for unjust detention. And John Fanyn
make to the value to Philip ; and Philip make to the value to
John Christofre. And said messuage, land and meadow, are ex-
tended as above. And the Sheriff is commanded to have a jury to
enquire of damage.
Afterwards come tho jury which says that Jordan and Imania
sustained damage by Philip to the value of 102 marks, and by John
18 marks. Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to levy said
money from the goods of Philip and John.
And on this afterwards comes David le Mazyner, and puts liis
claim on this that John Fanyn has no right in the manor of
Carnalewy in county Kildare except freehold for term of his
life by his grant, and this before Philip called John to warranty.
according to which the reversion of the manor after the death of
John Fanyn belongs to David. And he prays that he be adoiitted
to defend his right. And he proffers a charter which .John
Fanyn made to him of said manor, dated 3 April a.r. xxv.
And said Jordan, and Jordan son and heir of said Imania, being
notified, now come. And as to said tenement Philip gives 40s. for
licence to agree, by pledge of Jordan and Jordan who ought to pay
half. And the agreement is that Philip granted to Jordan and
Jordan 80 acres of land and 6 acres of meadow in Carnalewy which he
had of said John Fanyn for the value of said tenements in Kylrothan ;
to hold to Jordan and Jordan and the heirs of Jordan junior, of the
chief lords of the fee, by the services belonging for ever. And
Philip will warrant them for ever. And for this gi-ant, Jordan
senior, who holds by the law of England, for his life, the lands
which were of Imania his wife, of the inheritance of Jordan junior
in Tulaghrath, has granted the said tenements to Jordan junior
his son to hold for the term of the life of Jordan junior. And Jordan
junior has granted to Philip two marks of rent to be received from
certain tenants of his in Tulaghrath which he will assign to him
before Michaelmas next, and half of a mill in same town,- saving the
lordships of said tenants. To hold to Philip and his heirs of the chief
lords of the fee, by the services which belong to said rent and moiety
for ever. Jordan and Jordan and the heirs of Jordan junior will
warrant for ever.

And as to the damages, Philip complains that the Justices erred
in that they adjudged that Jordan and Imania should recover their
damages 102 marks against Philip, whereas they ought to have ad-
judged that Jordan and Imania should recover the damages
against John Fanyn ; and if he had noti whereof the damages
could ba levied, that what was wanting should be levied
from Philip, and they pray that the errors be corrected and justice
done him. And Jordan and Jordan cannot deny this. Therefore
it is adjudged that the record as to the damages be revoked. And
Jordan senior should recover his damages against John Fanyn ; and
Philip should have again the damages which he paid. And Jordan
senior in mercy.
Afterwards Philip remitted to Jordan all action and demand
against him for damages before levied ; so that he have again the
moiety of his lands which was by writ of judgment under witness of
Simon, delivered to Jordan and Imania, for said damages according
to the Statute, because Philip's chattels did not suffice for the
damages. And for this remission, Jordan senior assigned to Philip
the damages adjudged to him against John. And he grants that if
Philip, by any act of Jordan, shall have been impeded from recover-
ing the damages of 102 marks or any part against John; then so
much may be levied from the lands and chattels of Jordan.

Yet of Pleas at same place, before John Wogan, Justiciar,

Limerick. Whereas Gilbert Laundrey in court before John Wogan, justiciar,
in the quinzaine of S. John the Baptist, a.r. xxix., at Natlierlagh,
acknowledged that he owed to Will, de Berdeffeud 100-5., to bei paid
by pledge of Nich de Saundford and Will, de Dondouenyld, and he
has not yet paid it; the Sheriff was commanded to notify Gilbert and
the pledges to appear to- show cause.
And the Sheriff retviriied that Gilberti and Nicholas were not found
and had nothing; and Will, de Dondouenyld was warned. And he
caime not. And the Sheriff was commanded to levy the money from
him. '
And the Sheriff returned that Walter Maunsel, the chief serjeant,
answers: Goods of Will, d© Dondouenyld are taken into the King's
hand, to wit, 6 oxen worth each S-^., and 10 acres of oats worth each
2.s\ for which he has not found buyers.
And because neither the Sheriff nor Walter answer fully, nor

Yet of Pleas at Tristildermot, before John Wogan, in the July 8.
QUINZAINE OF S. JOHN THE BaPTIST.
Walter de Rydlesford, Henry Baret and Mabilla his wife, Nich. le
Norreys and Mariota his wife, were attached to answer the King ;
to wit, Walter of a ]Ae?i wherefore when the executors of Alianor
Queen of England, the King's deceased consort, granted to Walter
the custody of the lands of Ph. de Rydelesford, deceased, in Kyn-
negli, held of tlie King in capite, by reason of the moiety of the barony
of Tristildermod, which the Queen acquired in fee : to be held until
the lawful age of Mariota and Mabilla daughters and heirs of Philip ;
Walter, after the heirs completed their age, to wit, 15 years, held the
lands in his hand further, until the age of a male, viz., 21 years ; and
afterwards rendered the tenements to them, and accpiired them from
the said heirs without licence of the King, and without the heirs hav-
ing proved their age in the King's court according to custom, and
having obtained seisin by livery of the court.
And hereupon Ric. le Blount, who sues for the King, says that the
issues of the lands, from the time when the heirs completed fifteen
years, belonged to the King until they obtained seisin by livery of the
court; especially a,s Walter could claim nothing in the tenements, ex-
cept until the lawful age of Mariota and Mabilla, to wit, until they
comjDleted 15 years. Aud he prays that the issues be restored to the
King. He says also whereas the marriage of Mariota and Mabilla be-
longs to the King, Walter made them marry without licence, to wit,
because Mariota married Nicholas without licence of Walter, he took
from her the forfeiture of her marriage, to wit, 40^., for which
Nicholas and Mariota granted to him Mariota's purparty of her in-
heritance, to hold until he should levy said 40/ . And he married
Mabilla to Henry ; and afterwards they granted her purparty to
Walter in fee, for its value of Walter's lands which he holds of Will.
de Burgo in Connacht. But they cannot have seisin because William
has not permitted them to enter his fee. And he prays remedy for
the King.
And Henry, Mabilla, Nicholas, and Mariota [were attached to
answer] of a plea wherefoi'e when the marriage of Mabilla and
Mariota belongs to the King they married without licence ; and be-
cause they entered said tenements without licence and livery of the
court, and without having proved their age: and afterwards aliened
the tenements without licence.

All come. Walter says that he bought the custody from the execu-
tors of the Queen with the marriage ; and he had a sufficient commis-
sion, which has been taken from him, but is enrolled in the Exche-
quer, Dublin, and of which he vouches the record of the rolls of the
Exchequer. And he says that he offered to Mariota within 14 years of
age a sufficient marriage without disparagement, to wit, Arnald le
Peer or John his brother, at her choice, whom she refused. And he
made with her a fine for her marriage by 40/. And afterwards he
married Mabilla to said Henry, and rendered to them her inheritance,
at their petition, as he well might by virtue of his commission. And
because Nicholas and Mariota could not find security for the 40L,
they demised to him her purparty, to hold in tenencia until he should
levy the 40/. And Henry and Mabilla granted to him her purparty,
which he received as he well could, as appears to him, when he would
not have made a mesne between the King, in whose hand the moiety
of the barony now is. He says also that although the King has such
prerogative that it is not permitted to anyone to enter the King's
fi.el without his licence; yet it is permitted to anyone to enter the
fiefs of others without licence, to hold of the chief lords of the fief
immediately, to wit, in such manner as the feoffor held. And he
prays that the court may have advice in this case, that the Queen,
who by licence of the King acquired and held the moiety of said
barony, could not have other state towards her tenants than her
feoffor had, and so in this case there should not be adjudged to her
the prerogative of the King.
And Henry and Mabilla, Nicholas and Mariota say that when Wal-
ter entered the lands in name of wardship he took them and held
them in his wardship until Mabilla and Mariota completed the age of
an heir male, to wit, 21 years, without rendering to them their inheri-
tance within the completion of their fifteen years, as is the custom,
and without offering to Mariota any marriage within the same time.
And having completed 21 years they could not have their seisin
from Walter until Henry and Mabilla granted to him their purparty
for other lands in Connacht which he promised them ,• and until
Nicholas and Mariota made fine with him for 40/. because Mariota
married without Walter's licence. And of this they put themselves
on the country, and Walter likewise.
And Ric. le Blount says for the King, as before, that the issues of
said tenements belong to the King, and not to another, from the time
at which Mabilla and Mariota completed the age of female heirs, to
wit, 15 years, until they proved their age in the King's Court as is the
custom. And he prays judgment for the King. He says also that
however the Queen acquii-ed the moiety of the bai'ony, the seisin of
the Queen was seisin of the King. And he says that although Wal-
ter may have had a commission to Imve the marriage, which he does
not believe he had, as he can show nothing for it, yet he cannot by
this claim anything except the value of the marriage, and the King
the forfeiture. And Walter took the 40/. of Nicholas and Mariota
for forfeiture of the marriage, because she married Nicholas without
licence of Walter. And he prays for the King that it be enquired.
And Walter likewise.
Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to summon a jury at the quin-
zaine of S. Michael.

Same day is given to Walter to hear judgment. And in the meati-
time let the rolls of the Exchequer be searched.
Afterwards at said day, at Tristeldermot, comes Walter and the
others. And Walter showed by Memorandum of the Exchequer that
he acquired the wardshijD and marriage of the said land and heir, of
the executors of the Queen. But because the forfeiture of the mar-
riage belongs to the King and not to another, therefore let Nicholas
and Mariota answer to Walter for the value of her marriage, which is
taxed at 20 marks, and to the King for other 20 marks for forfeiture.
And as to the other sister whom Walter married, as he was entitled to
do, it stands adjourned. And Walter gives to the King ISl. for the
issues which he took of said lands from the time when the daughters
were 15 years until the feast of the Ascension last. And Henry and
Mabilla give to the King 4.0s. because they entered their purparty
without licence or livery of the King's court. And said fines are put
in estreats in the rolls of pleas of the quinzaine of S. Michael. And
the trespasses which Nicholas and Mariota did in entering their pur-
party are pardoned. And be it known that Mariota and Mabilla
in said qixinzaine proved their age, to wit, that Mariota was 23 years
and Mabilla 21 years. And the Escheator is charged to answer to the
King for the issues of the land from the feast of the Ascension to said
quinzaine of S. Michael.
The King sent his writ (in French) : Edward, etc., to Johan EugkiuL
Wogan, etc. Whereas the King's dear " bachiler " Johan de Lue Luda.
has served him in his wars of Gascony and Scotland, and it pleases
the King that he remain in Ireland. He is to be put in charge of a
castle or elsewhere in the March, where he may be of service to the
King. And according as he shall deserve, he shall have suitable
sustenance, to be allowed in Wogan's account. Given under Privy
Seal at Westminster 26 Api'il n.r. xxxiii.
Also another similar writ for Will, de Ponton.
And because in the mandate it is not stated how much they should
receive, and the Justiciar offered in the name of the King to each 40
marks yearly which they refused as too little, the Justiciar sent letters
to the Bishop of Coventry and Lychlield, treasurer of England, to con-
sult him. Who sent that the Justiciar should order a middle course,
to wit, betwe.en said 40 marks, and 40/. which each of them demanded.
Therefore on Saturday after the feast of S. Michael at Dublin, in
presence of master John Cantok, locum tenens of the Chancellor, Ric.
de Bereford, treasurer, the Barons of the Exchequer, Dublin, and
others of the King's Council in this land, it is agreed that each take
yearly 50 marks of the Treasurer, and each have two horses
equipped (equos co-operfos), and remain in places where the Justiciar
may enjoin them for the service (^f the King. And the Chancellor is
directed to make a writ of Liberate to each for 10/. in part-payment,
to wit, from 21 July, on which day the Justiciar received the writ, to
6 November next for 109 days, each day counted.
Afterwards by assent of the Treasure]- the terms are changed so :

Kilkenny. King's service in the war of Scotland, one Eynon Madoc, a felon and
outlaw, came to Walter's land at Foghirrum, and took food and drink,

broke the doors of the hall, chamber, and other houses, and took his
goods, and wholly devastated his land, so that for a great time it lay
vmcultivated. And the third day following, said Eynon being dead,
John and the othei's associating with them Walter Bulle and Retharach
Madoc, felons, outlawed in co. Dublin at suit of Ric. le Poer, came to
the King's town of Carrykmagriffin, and took Math. Oryan, Walter's

Thomas Colgagh complains that John son of John son of Reginald Kiia-.n-e.
put him in pledge ten years ago against John de Hothum of 43s. Ad. ;
which Thomas for the non-acquittance of John son of John, paid to
John de Hothum, by heavy distraints of the King's court issuing

Wherefore he is not bound to answer this plaint, and that he paid
said money, he is ready to prove as the Court may adjudge.

Dublin. Robert Russell complains that when a contention arose in the town
of Rosponte on the vigil of SS. Peter and Paul, a.r. xxxii., between
Robert Seinde and certain mariners of the Cinque Ports, to wit, of
the town of Wynchelese, wounded by R. Seinde; R. Russell, then
sovereign of the town went to R.S., and enjoined him tO' obtain the
good-will of said mariners for the trespasses, for himself and those of
his company who were jDresent when they were done, so that ill come
not to any of the town by said mariners; which he would not do.
On which the mariners of Wynchelese and their associates lately
finding two ships of R. Russell, and two other ships of same town on
the sea coast near S. Math, in Brittany laden with merchandise to the
value of 400/. and more, they took those ships, proposing to slay
the mariners and burn the shiiDS on account of Robert Seinde, so
that by fear of death, the mariners had to make fine of 201. and one
tun of wine, of which the mariners of Robert Russell paid 22 marks
of his goods. And he prays remedy.
And Robert Seinde says that the mariners of Wynchelese were not
wounded by him. But it is well known that at the vigil of SS. Peter
and Paul the men commonly staying up at night {vigilant Ih us) and
making fire in the streets, as is the custom, went to a boat laden with
firewood of Thomas Coytif, and took wood from, it to make a fire;
which Thomas learning, he hurried there, and a contention being
stirred there and a great cry I'aised, Robert Seinde having one ser-
vingman with him, turned there to know the cause of the outcry,
and met the maoners of Wynchelese, who attacked and beat him, so
that he scarcely escaped from them, without his having done theni
any trespass. And because the mariners likewise wounded his ser-
vingman, so that his life was despaired of (in fact, he died within six
days), Robert Russell as sovereign of the town, hue and cry being
raised, took with him the posse of the town, and fought the malefac-
tors, so that he drove tliem to their ships, where they remained
defending themselves. And he i^i'ays that this be enquired. Robert
Russell likewise. Let the Sheriff have a jury at the quinzaine of S.

mariners of the Cinque Ports were wounded by Robert Seynde and
his following, and by his fault, by which the sliijis of Robert Russell
were arrested as complained, by which the mariners had to

Ric. Snow appears against Hugh Colkyn, Stephen le Lange, John Kildare
de Stanewelle, Will. Joye clerk, Will. Gilot, ^^'ill. Baret, and Ste-
phen le Whyte, of a plea of trespass, to wit, when Ricard bought in
the town of the Naas nine sacks of wool, and wished to carry them to
Dublin, Hugh and the others caused the wool to be attached and
arrested so that he could not have delivery of it, to his damage of
100s.
They come not. And Hugh was attached by Will, son of Hugh
and John Reymund ; John de Stanewell, by Mich, de Welles and
Will. G-yllot ; Will. Joye by Stephen le Whyte and master Ricard
of the Naas; Will. Gilot, by Will. Baret and John de Stanewell;
Will. Baret by Will. Gilot and Will. Joye ; and Stephen Whyte by
Will. Joye and Will. Baret. Therefore they in mercy. And of
Stephen 1© Lange, the Sheriff was commanded to attach him. And
he returned that he commanded Robert Braynoc chief serjeant of
Offelan, who answers : Stephen le Lange is not found, but is dis-
trained by one acre of oats worth 5s. Therefore let the crojD be for-
feited. And the Sheriff is commanded to distrain them, and have
them on the morrow of S. James the Apostle.
Jordan d© Exon' complains that whereas the King committed to Kiklare
him the custody of the lands and heir of Ric. de S. Michaele in the
Ryban, in which is a turbary of which Ricard died seised : Arnald le
Poer lately impeded the tenants of the manor of the Ryban from
cutting turves in the tiu'bary, as they were accustomed to do each sea-
son by licence of Ricard and his ancestors. And the turf which said
tenants made in that turbary, and put in their carts to carry for
themselves, he took away to his manor of Kylmehede, which is outside
this county in the liberty of Catherlath. Which trespass he began
on the feast of the Nativity of S. John the Baptist last, and has con-
tinued from day to day since. And he says he has damage to 10^.
Arnald comes and says he did no injury to Jordan or to the heir,
nor did he take the carts as complained, but he acknowledges that he
took the turf which the tenants dug in the turbary, as he was entitled
to do, for that turbary is his freehold and part of his manor of
Kylmehede, and not appurtenant to the manor of the Ryban. And
because the tenants of the manor of the Ryban dug and made turves
there without the licence of him. or his bailiffs, he caused those turves
to be carried away, without injiu-y or trespass to Jordan or the heir.
And he prays that this be enquired. And Jordan likewise. The Sheriff
is commanded to have a jury at the quinzaine of S. Michael, with a
jury of CO. Dublin, to wit, of said liberty.
Will. Upryght complains of John le Muchele, that when William Dublin,
sent a horse of his from Nenagh Obx-en into the parts of Kenles in Kilkenny,
Ossory about mid lent last, John le Muchele came and took the horse
in the town of Kenles, and detains it, to his damage of 405.

John comes and acknowledges that he has the horse. And says
that he had it of Nicholas archdeacon of Ossory, and the horse was
stolen from him (John), and at last he found it in the town of
Kenles. And he attached himself to sue and prove the horse to be
his, as is the custom in the same town. And he made lawful proof
in presence of him who led the horse there. And by judgment of
the hundred there he had restitution of the horse without doing any
injury to William. And he prays that this be enquired.
And William says that however he says that he made proof, that
horse was foaled with one Lorcan in Grongia of the Nanagh in co.
Tipperary. And Lorcan sold it to one Ralph le Waleys, burgess of same
town ; who afterwards sold it to William ; in whose possession the
horse was without interruption until John took it, as complained.
And this he prays may be enquired. Let the Sheriff have a jury to-
gether with a jury of co. Tipperary.
Afterwards at the day of S. John the Baptist, a.r. xxxiv., at Dub-
lin, came the parties and the jury, who say that the horse belonged
to John, not to William. Therefore William in mercy for false

Dublin. Will, de Monte complains of Theobald de Vikio that when a
contention was between Hugh del Post and William, concerning
a debt of 1,200 marks which Hugh demanded against William, at
length by assent of each, four arbitrators were chosen to hear and
determine the demand, on whose decree the parties put themselves,
so that if the four should not be unanimous, Theobald was to be
associated with them, and the decree should proceed by those of the
four with whom Theobald should haiDpen to agree. And Theobald
came to William at Cassell on Thursday before the feast of S.
Peter in Cathedra a.r. xxxii., and said to him that if William would
give him of his, he would work only that the judgment should pass
for William ; or else that he would not consent to' any judgment being
made, and that he would warn him secretly of the things which he
should see in the decree whether good or bad. And it was agreed
between them that William should give Theobald 10/. for his aid,
of which he paid immediately 40.s-. and gave him a gold brooch in
pledge for 60s., and for the remaining 100s. made him his letter
payable at Pentecost. Afterwards, by the help of Guydo brother of
Theobald, he contracted with Hugh promising to work for him in
the decree against William, as before he promised for William against
Hugh, for 20/. for which Hugh made his letter to Guydo. For
which falsity and deceit Guydo was convicted in Court before
Edmund le Botiller, locum tenens, at the suit of William. And
afterwards Theobald in fraud and deceit of William inclined to
the part of Hugh, not permitting to be allowed to William his
reasonable expenses and payments, which, when it was told to
William by some of the arbitrators, William on account of the
• greater evil procured against him by Theobald, made fine with Hugh
for 265 marks, when, by lawful account, he was not bound to him
in anything. And he prays remedy.

And the parties formerly came into court at the month of Easter,
at Dublin, before Edmund le Botiller, and a day was given to this
day at the prayer of the parties.
And Theobald now comes and says that he is not bound to answer
this plaint, because William says that he promised to be his friend
in the arbitration, which arbitration never proceeded to completion,
as appears by William's acknowledgment, who says that he made
fine with Hugh, without the arbitrators having pronounced their
decree; and William intended by this plaint to recover damages,
and it appears by his count that he sustained no damages by said
decree which never was pronounced, by which he can[not] say that
Theobald injured him in said decree. And he prays judgment.
And William says as before that he agreed with Theobald as
above in his plaint by 10/. that Theobald then promised to make
him wholly quit by said arbitration of the demand of Hugh : and
afterwards in turn agreed with Hugh promising to condemn William
in his demand, by said 20/. ; and caused it to be ordered that the
decree should be made against William falsely drawing from William
debts which should be allowed him. Which decree he then made
to be sealed under the seals of the ai-bitrato-rs. And this he is ready
to prove by the co-arbitrators and in all other ways as the Court may
adjvidge.
And Theobald, asked if he will admit the averment which William
offers, says that he has no need for this ; because William who by
his plaint intended to recover damages, cannot show that he
sustained any damage by said decree, which never was pronounced
nor passed into a matter adjudicated. And so he cannot show that
he has sustained any damage by Theobald in this part. And he
prays judgment. And William prays judgment of Theobald as
undefended.
Eustace le Poer appears against Ph. de Barry, of a plea of Cork,
trespass. And he comes not. And formerly he appeared in court
at the month of Easter, as appears in the rolls of plaints of the term
of S. Hilary, when they pleaded to a jury of the country, which at
the instance of the parties was to be returned at this day before
John de Ponte and Maur. Russell.
And John and Maurice did nothing. Therefore let the Jviry
proceed by default of Philip, to make known if Philip broke a
writing which he made to Eustace for 500 marks to be given him
if Philip should not sue in the Roman Court a dispensation for
consanguinity which was between John son and heir of Philip, and
Marcilla his wife niece of Eustace, between whom for default of said
suit a divorce is celebrated. Which writing Maurice Russell in
the name of Eustace gave into the custody of Johanna wife of
Philip, from whose hands Philip took it against her will and
broke it, as Eustace says : or not, as Philip says.

was commanded to summon him to be here to show wherefore it
should not be levied to the use of William de Monte merchant of

And William appears against him. And he comes not. And the
Sheriff now returns that he summoned John, by John Burdoun, Ric.
Kempe, Eustace de Cogan, and Adam Cole.
And because the Court has not full advice if execution should be
made against John at the suit of William for said debt. As well be-
cause the recognizance is made to Theobald, no mention being made
to any society ; as because it does not appear to the Court that Wil-

The Sheriff did nothing, nor did he return the writ, but in place
of the writ sent a return which he made to the Seneschal of the

Waterford. Walter de la Haye, escheator, was directed that, becavise Henry
son of John, who held of the King in capite, had died, he should take
all lands which he held of the King in capite in his bailiwic, into the
King's hand ; and enquire what land he held of the King in capite,
how much of others, and by what service, how much the lands are
worth yearly, and who is his next heir, and of what age.
By pretext of which the Escheator sent an inquisition :
Inquisition taken at Waterford, on Tuesday after the feast of SS.
Peter and Paul, a.r. xxxiii., by the following: Robert Fraunceys,
Will. Sauuage, Henry Rudberd, John son of Peter le Poer, Walter
son of Griffin le Poer, Benedict son of Andrew le Poer, Stephen son
of Geoffrey, Reymund le Taillour, Elias Went, Robert Whyttey,
Adam son of Maurice, and John Coggeno, who say that Henry son of
John son of Philip held of the King in capite, when he died, one
carucate of land in Balidermot, which is called Baliadam, doing suit
to the county court, and it is worth yearly in all issues 30s. And
he held of John le Poer, baron of Donnoyl, 2 carucates in Ilanyken,
doing suit to his court, and rendering to him 29s. Sd. yearly, and to
Juliana daughter of William son of Alexander, in name of dower,
40s., and it is worth further 10s. Ad. And they say that John son
of said Henry by Mabilla Aylward his wife, is his next heir, and is
of full age, to wit, 30 years and more.
And on this came Eustace le Poer, and showed to the Court that
the inquisition was taken in the absence of Stejohen le Poer and David
son of Henry, who claim right in the said tenements. On which the
Sheriff was commanded to summon David and Stephen, and all
others concerned, to be here to show wherefore execution of the in-
quisition ought not to be done, and seisin rendered to John.
And David and Stephen now come. And David says that Henry
enfeoffed him of the two carucates in Ilanyken, which are held of
the baron of Donnoyl, and hei wasi seised, until at the death of Henry
the Escheator ejected him, so he says Henry did not die in seisin of
them.
And Stephen le Poer says as to the carucate of land called Baly-
adam, that after the death of Mabilla Aylward formerly wife of
Henry, Henry wishing to marry Oliva sister of Stephen enfeoffed her
of said carucate about 16 years past; and afterwards affianced her,
but never married her, because the marriage was hindered by Math.
Aylward, who showed that Mabilla and Oliva were cousins in the
third degree. However, Henry kept her as his concubine for many
years in the parts of Connacht because the prelates of the bishopi'ic
of Waterford did not permit them to cohabit in that diocese. And
of her he begot David whom he enfeoffed of said two carucates as
aforesaid. And afterwards Olivai, who continued her seisin of said
caiaicate which she so- had without interruption, about a quarter of a
year past enfeoffed Stephen, of same tenement, and he was in seisin
until the Escheator ejected him. And he acknowledges that neither
he nor Oliva had entry by licence of the Court, beeau&e they did not
believe it was necessary for them to seek such licence.
He says also, for the King, that Henry held in said town of Bali-
dermot two carucates beyond that carucate, of the King in capite.

Membrane 69 — cont. 1305.
And of these two Henry enfeoffed Andrew his eldest son and heir,
without licence of the King. And because Andrew died without
heir of himself, John son of Henry entered as brother and heir with-
out licence, and held the tenement hitherto. And he prays judgment
for the King that said two carucates be taken into the King's hand ;
and that John answer to the King for the issues from the time of the
death of his brother.
And John says that whatever David and Stephen may say of feoff-
ment made by Henry his father, Henry died seised of said tene-
ments, as in the inquisition. And this he prays may be enquired.
And David and Stephen likewise. Therefore the Sheriff is com-
manded to have a jury.
Afterwards in the quinzaine of S. Hilary, a.r. xxxiv., at Dublin,
came John, Stephen, and David, and likewise Will, le Graunt, Ric.
le Poer, knights : Peter son of David, Gilbert de Penbrok, Will.
Sauuage, Walter son of Griffyn le Poer, Math. Belescot, Henry
Rudeberd, Meyler son of Henry le Poer, Regin. le Fissher, Peter
Wente, and John le Graunt, jurors. Who say as to the carucate
of Balyadam, that Henry the father about fourteen years past en-
feoffed Oliva, who was his concubine, of that carucate in fee simple,
and put her in seisin : and she continued her seisin until the day be-
fore the death of Henry, and then seeing that he could not recover
from his sickness, and that she had not what would fittingly bury
him, she sold the carucate to Stephen without licence, and by word
delivered seisin to him, who so was in seisin, without manuring or
making profit of it, until the third day, when the Escheator wholly
amoved him. And as to the two carucates in Ikanyken, they say
that in that land is situate a messuage in which Henry lay sick, who
the day before his death, although weak in body was yet sound of
memory, he said that he wished to enfeoff David his son begotten of
sp.id Oliva of those tenements. And he caused himself to be carried
to the door of the house, saying to him : Son, I give to thee the
whole of this tenement with all my chattels in it; giving to him the
door by the hasp, 9,bout the first hour of the day. And by his
friemds he caused himself to b© carried out. And when he wa® being
carried near the church which is situate in that land, and his friends
wished to carry him thither, he forbade them to do so, lest he might
impede the seisin of his son, but enjoined them to carx'y him to the
house of a neighbour, and this being done, he died on the morrow,
at the third hour of the day. But his whole household remained
in said messuage from the time of said gift until Henry's death,
without making any submission {Intenchncia facie nda) to David, and
without David taking any profit from it before the death of Henry.
As to the remaining two cariicates in Balidermot, John acknow-
ledges that he holds them, and that they are held of the King in
capita. But he says that Henry the father gave one carucate of
them to Andrew his eldest son, brother of John, whether by licence
of the King's Court or not, he does not know. And because Andrew
died without heir of himself, John immediately after his death en-
tered as bi'other and heir, and has held it, without having obtained
licence, because he did not believe it to be necessary for him. And
as to the other of said two carucates, Andrew was not in seisin of it,
but Henry the father demised it to John to hold for a term of years
by a rent to Henry and his heirs. And at the death of Henry about
ten weeks past, there remained to John six years of said term.

And Stephen says, for the King, that Andrew died seised of both
carucates. After whose death John entered both without licence.
And this he prays for the King may be enquired. And John like-
wise. Therefore let the carucate which John entered on the death
of Andrew be taken into the King's hand ; and let the Sheriff answer
for the issues. And let the Sheriff have a jury.
And as to the said two carucates in Balydermot, the said jurors
say that about 12 years past Henry enfeoffed of one carucate Andrew
his son, without licence of the King, as they believe. Who died
about six years past. After whose death John entered peacefully,
without licence or contradiction of any minister of the King, as his
brother and heir, and so yet holds it. And of the other carucate Henry
was in seisin, until about two years before his death he demised it to
John for a term of years, during which term Henry died. And John
likewise continued his seisin of that carucate, after the death of his
father, without licence or impediment. And they say that each of
the carucates is worth yearly in all issiies 30s. And they say that
Henry held them of the King in capite, doing suit, to the county court
of Waterford.

Thomas de S. John late sheriff of this county, for which he ought to
have given him a tally, which he has not hitherto done, on account of
which John was again distrained for it. William says he was receiver
of the money of the King under Thomas the sheriff', and acknowledges
that he received tlie ")>■•. and he paid them to Thomas.

Serjeant of the King delivered the corn to. Thomas son of Reymbald
vvhich he ought not to have done, thea-efore he cansed these chattels
to be replevied by writ of the King. And because Adam acknowledges
that he made the execution for Thomas le Hunte his son, a serjeant,
in aid of him, because he is a young man and' he' undertook for his
son that he would properly fulfil the office of serjeant ; and Thomas L.
cannot deny tliis : it is adjudged that Thomas R. have again the corn.
And T. L., who, in deceit of the Coiirt, caused the chattels to be re-
plevied to him, in heavy mercy. And be it known that- Thomas R.
acknowledges that T. L. did not carry away any of the oats.
Tipperary. Geoffrey Minur v. Geoffrey son of Robert. It is found by the Jury
that G. R. gave to G. M. four acres of lamd for a term of years; and
afterwards sold them in fee to Eustace de Bermyngeham ; by which
sale Geoffrey le Minur lost the crop of the land. He received from
Geoffrey le Minur 18s. bd. for the farm. Therefore de equitate curie
let G. M. have again the money which he paid. And G. R. grants
that the money be levied from 2\ marks which John le Cornwaleys has
in his keeping, of the money which Eustace gave him for the feoffment.
Tipperaiy. Peter Stykehare i'. Will, son of Roger de la Sale. It is found by
the Jury/ that when they together went under the influence of drink
out of the' town of Cassell, where they drank together, William in a
field rode against Peter and threw him and his horse to the ground;
and passing on returned with great speed ; which Peter arising saw,
and fearing that greater evil would happen him, drew his sword to
defend himself; and William coming to him, with his sword drawn
struck Peter in' the face under the eye and gave him a severe wound,
by which his eye is injured. And having inspected Peter's face, it is
adjudged that he recover his damages, ta.xed by the Court at 20
marks; and let William be committed to gaol.
Damages 20 marks, of which C. (the clerks of court) 405. , Mar[slial]

wit, William de Nongle, John Martel, David de Yalle, liobert de la
Hay, Roger de Nongle and Elias Burdun, who took oath that they
would apply themselves to the business, and prosecute the felons to
their power.
Tin -arv Because Robert Haket is assigned a keeper for preservation of the
peace, to repress the malice of felons invading from day to day divers
parts of this county, it is granted that^ he have respite of all debts
demanded Ironi him by sunmions of the Exchequer, until the proffer

is connnanded that he permit him to have the respite, provided that
he take from him sufficient security that Robert will then pay all his
debts so demanded from him.

of Ralph Heyne, on Sunday thei feast of S. Peter ad vincula,, in, the
town of Carryk Mcgriffin, slew two sows of Gilbert, with his spear, so
that ten little sucking pigs are left him half dead.
Henry acknowledges that he slew them by command of Ph. son of
Ralph Heyne, his lord, in whose corn the sows were found. And

Philip acknowledges this and avows the act; asserting that it is
lawful to anyone to slay pigs found in their corn, by custom of the
country.
And because Henry and Philip cannot deny that Gilbert is their
neighbour dwelling in same town, so that by plaint in the court there
they could sue for justice from him, if by chance they should not have
been able to impound the sows; it is adjudged that Gilbert should
recover against them his damages, taxed by the Court at 2s. And
Henry and Philip in mercy.

render to the Abbot 16/. lOs., in arrear of a rent of 10.s. On aiccovint
of certain errors found in the record and process, it was revoked, and
the judgment annulled. On account of which the Sheriff was com-
manded that he should levy from the lands, and chattels of the Abliot,
to the value of the money levied from Margery on accoTint of the
judgment, and restore it to her, as. at p. 11.
Afterwards on Monday the vigil of S. Laurence, at Waterford, came
the Abbot and Margery, and the Sheriff by David Broun, his sub-
sheriff, who performs the office for Maur. Russell sheriff". But Bene-
dict does not come, nor is he found. And the Abbot says, as before,
that the Sheriff' made false return, because he returned that 16/. 10-s.
of the goods of Margery were valued, and that Benedict le Poer, the
chief Serjeant of Oft'ath, rendered them to the Abbot by writ of judg-
nient of the Bench ; for he says he never received but 5.s. And he
prays that the Sheriff' may show ])y what the Abbot can be chargied
with a greater sum.
Tlie Sheriff" and likewise Margery, who joins with him, say that the
return is true, and the: Sheriff avows it, for Benedict caused to be
valued by oath of good men two horses of hers at 10 marks and the
crop of 40 acres of wheat valued for the rest. Which horses and crop
Benedict first took into the hand of the King for said debt, and
rendered tliem to the Abbot by a monk, to wit, the Prior of said
Abbey.
And the Abbot acknowledges that Benedict took two old horses of
Margery, of small value, and likewise the crop, which were valued by
a jury procured and suspected. Which chattels, when Benedict
offered to tlie Prior in the name of the Abbot, at said price, he refused
to receive them, understanding that the chaittels were not Avortli half
of that value. And this he prays may bo enquired.
Margery says that the goods which were taken intoi the hand of the
King after the valuation did not come to her. She says also that
beside those chattels, Reg. Broun, locum tenens of Reg. Russell chief
Serjeant, caused to be levied of her goods, for said debt, 45«. 5fZ. and
she proffers letters which testify this. Reg. Broun acknowledges this,
and says that he paid to the Abbot G-^. : and 20.s-. to tlie clerks of tlie
Bench Du1)lin, hx writ of judgment, of the gift of the Aljl^ot, of the
damages ; and the residue to the clerks of tlie Sheriff', of the gift of
the Abbot. And of the other goods, to wit horses and corn, neither
he nor Reg. Russell ouglit to answer for Benedict : because Benedict
was made serjeant of Oft'ath l)y Maur. Russell the slierift'. And tliey
pray that the Sheriff answer for liiin.
The Sheriff cannot deny this, l)ut says that Benedict took the liorses
into the hand of the King, and likewise the crop, and had them
valued, and after the valuation, Margery did not receive, nor would
the Abbot receive them, at the price at which they were valued ; but
they wandered through the country without keeping, and he believes
that they died But as to tlie crop Margery caused it to be reaped
and taken away.
Margery cannot deny tliis. And because she put her hand to the crop,
so taken into the King's hand, without licence, let her be committed

cit}^ of Waterford, Jordan de Bristoll and Thomas de Fylon provosts
of same city, Ric. de Boys, John Austyn, Walter Russel .senior, John
Russel, and Walter Russel junior, that on Friday after the feast of
SS. Philip and James last in the street of S. John in the suburb of the
city, they took one horse of Reginald value 20 marks, one saddle value
2 marks, two girths (-i^.), a surcingle (Sd.), a horse cover (hucea)
(2.S.), a rein (2s.), and a headstal (4rf.), and brought them to the house
of Walter Russel senior, who yet detains them. And he &ays he has
damage to 100.?.
Adamar and the others come. And Adamar says that he did no
trespass to Reginald as complained, because, at the time, he was at
Dublin, so that these things were hidden from him. Reginald cannot
deny this; therefore in mercy for false claim against Adamar.
Jordan and Thomas the provosts, and Ric. de Boys, and John
Austyn Serjeants of the city acknowledge and avow the taking, as
lawful for them by custom hitherto used in the said city. For Walter
Russel senior complained to them of Reginald and his horse for a debt
of 35.?. 2(J. which Walter said that Reginald owed him; and at suit of
Walter they caused the horse with his apparel to be attached, as is
the custom, until Reginald should come to answer Walter of said debt.
And Walter acknowledges this. And John Russel and Walter Russel
junior acknowledce that they were present at the taking, for Walter
senior, their lord.
And Reginald says that they cannot avow said taking and detention
for said cause. Because the horse was taken in the King's highway
(rec/ia strata); and because the horse was for Reginald's riding; and
especially on account of war, because no one ought to distrain such
goods. And also because Reginald has, within the precinct of the
city, a house, and 8 marks of rent, by which he could answer to
justice. And he prays judgment.
And because the provosts and others cannot deny this, and Walter
Russel senior acknowledges that the horse was in his custody by

debt against Reginald ; and the horse died with him ; and it is

England. The King sent his writ : Edward &c. to Wogan &c. On the part of
Louth. GuiM. James, Lortiis.us Truchart, Gruill. Belyart, John Meuart, and
Guill. de Folerie, burgesses and merchants of Dynan in Brittany, it
is showed that when they freighted a ship called the cog of S. Mary
' •" de Loune at Bordeaux {Burdegal) &c. as in p. 86. Teste at Kenyn-
ton 20 May a. r. xxxiii.
And because John Torald mariner, who came to Dundalk with the
ship and wines, sold the wines to divers people so that none of it
could be found. And afterwards John Torald, at the suit of the King,
before the Justices at Drogheda, being convicted by a jury of the
country, of said robbery, was hanged. Nothing is done as to restitu-
tion of the wines.
Afterwards having heard the petition of Andrew Barechoun of Oloune
and Susanna his mother, by William Beneger, asserting that the ship
was theirs and was robbed by John Torald, before notice could come
to them, which ship came to William le Blound junior of Dundalk,
by sale which the felon made to him : the Sheriff was' commanded to
arrest the ship with itsi apparatus and tackle ; and to summon
William le Blound to be here at this day to show wherefore it ought
not to be restored to Andrew and Susanna.
And the Sheriff now returns that the ship is arrested in the ^^ort
of Dundalk. And the parties come. And William le Blound, asked
what he claims in the ship, says he claims the ownership, and is not
bound to answer to any for such writ of suggestion. And of this he
is ready to put himself in judgment, if he have a party with wliom
his is bound to plead ; and thereupon he prays that Will. Beneger
may show that he is the attorney.
And William Beneger says he is their attorney by their letters
patent according to Law merchant, which he proffers :
Osanna Barrechoun burgess in Olona, and Andrew Barrochon clerk,
her son, to all justices in Yllandia. A ship called La coque
notre dame de Olona, on Thursday before the nativity of S. John the
Baptist last, laden with 71 tuns of wine of Gascony, John Barrechoun
master or pilot, in the sea outside the Seven islands was taken by
malefactors. And we understand that the sJiip laden with the wine
was brought by the malefactors into yoTir parts. Pray that the ship
with its apparel and four tuns and one pipe of wine may be delivered
to Guill. Beneger burgess of Hareford in Wales, whom they appoint
to demand and receive them in their place. This they signify by tlie

seal of Andrew, together with the seal of John castellan of Castle Olone
for the noble prince Gwido viscount of Thoar". Dated on Sunday
when is sung " Circumdederunt me" a. i). 1304.
And Will. Beneger prays that the ship be restored to him, to the
use of Andrew and t)sanna, as Will, le Blound cannot say anything,
and he has sufficient testimony that the ship was theirs and was
robbed from them.
William le Blound says that by said letter W. Beneger ought not
to be admitted as attorney of Andrew and Susanna, neither by
Connnon Law or Merchant Law, because it is not used by Common
Law that anyone be admitted to plead by proctor, especially as he
acts in the name of Andrew and Susanna, while the letter he proffers
makes no mention of Susanna, but of one Osanna. And for whom
he cannot say that he is proctor or attorney as the seal of Osanna or
Susanna is not appended to the letter, but only the name of Osanna
inserted. Although by custom among merchants, their valets or
proctors may act for their lords in tlie sale of goods and buying and
merchant contracts, yet in England or in this land they cannot plead
for them, to recover things or possessions, to which they claim that
their lords have right.
William Beneger says that said letter suffices him under the seal of
the castellan which is sufficient of record according to the Law Merchant
although the seals of Andrew and Osanna were not appended. And
he prays that W. le Blound answer him as attorney bv Law Merchant;
or that lie be held to be undefended. And tluxt tlie" ship be restored
to him in tlie name of Andrew and Osanna as W. le Blound does not
deny that it is theirs, nor says anything wherefore it ought! not to be
rendered to them, as that which "was robbed from them. And he
prays instant judgment.
William le Blound says he is not bound to answer for said causes.
Likewise that though the Castellan or his seal, wliich in these parts is
unknown, may in the Kingdom of France be of record ; here however
it does not ensure credit. Nor can William show that seal to be the
authentic seal of the Castellan. And he prays judgment. And he
prays the Court to have advice as to this that the Castellan does not
testify that Andrew, and Osanna constituted William Beneger their
proctor, but only that Andrew says this, as appears in the words in
the end of the proxy — '■ Et liec vo'bis sigiiificamus per pre.sentes literas
sigilli mei dicti Andree una<;um sigillo nobilis ' viri Johannis cas-
tellani," &c.
And having had treaty with Henry le Marchall citizen of Dublin
and other merchants who are accustomed to trade in foreign parts for
long time, who say that according to Law Merchant, Willham Beneo-er
has enough in said proxy to demand the ship for Andrew and Osanna.
And having insi)ected the charter made I)etween William Beliard and
and other merchants of one part, and John Barchoun [master] of said
ship of the other part, of wliich charter the other part was found with
said John Torald hanged for the siaid robbery, which agree word for
word, and wliich testify that the ship is the cog of S. Mary of Olona.
And likewise having inspected letters patent of Gwido viscount of
Thoarc' and of Is. de March lady of Bellonar which testify the same,
and that the ship belonged to Andrew and Osanna and "was robbed
on the sea as aforesaid. And William le Blound [cannot deny]
this, nor say anything else wherefore the ship ought not to be
rendered to Andrew and Osanna, except that William" does not show

rent before taken, there were taken upon the tenement of William
Sangmelle 13 cows, worth each bs., and they were led to Taghmoun
and further towards Dublin for 15 leagues (leuaas). And afterwards
came men unknown and forcibly took away the cow.Si in the liberty of
Trim. The corn taken William Sangmelle caused to be threshed

has not other goods of which tlie monev can be levied. John Bacoun
is not found.
And it is testified that William Sangmelle has other goods sufficient
in this bailiwic, to wit, 8 stacks of wheat and oats' at Loxeudy. And
Maur. le Reue, late locum tenens of said sei-jeant, caused them to be
threshed and sold, to the value of 4 marks, and received the money.
Thei'efore tlio Sheriff is again commanded to levy, and to make return
at the month of S. Michael, and to have John Bacoun and said Thomas
to hear judgment because they did not execute, the precept, nor make
suit after the felons who took the cows. And l)ecause the Slieriff does
not come to hear judgment, he is in mercy, to wit Luke de Belyng.
And because it is testified that Mau'rice lias not lands in this county
but dwells in co. Dublin, the Sheriff of that county is commanded to
have him to answer.
Afterwards at that day, comes Thomas, locum tenens of John
Bacoun, and Maur le Reue who lately held the place of John, and

Pleas of Plaints at the Naas, before John Wogan Justiciar, on Sept. 30.
Thursbat the morrow of S. Michael.
Robert Schynnagh v. Ric. Breynoc. It is found by the Jury that Kiklare.
Hugh de la Hide on a Sunday, at Kei-uagh, put up a. belt for a contest
between him and his men and the men of the town of the Nas, which
belt the men of the town won in the contest, on which Hugh said that
he would put for contest on the same day week a nmtton in said town
of the Nas against the men of the town, each side agreeing to this.
Before that day Robert Breynok came toi the town of the Nas, asking
certain men of the town whom he found gathered together that they
would give him, to buy a horse, the two marks levied from them. for
a subsidy, which the Justiciar ordered to be restored to them because
it was levied without reasonable cause, and which are in the hand
of the Sheriff. They answering that they would do this when their
neighbours gave assent to it, Robert went to Adam le Tannour and
William Kyft, whom he found together, who were as the great men
(maiores) of the town, asking- their assent. Adam answered that they
could not do this, nor tallage their neighbours. On which Robert
sitting on his horse, moved with anger, said to Adam : Rustic ! You
do not pay any contribution ! but I will tallage thee. And Adam
answering that he would not give more for his tallage than for a dog ;
Robert forthwith got down from his horse and having drawn his
sword went towards Adam who drew his knife, having no other arms
with him. But those standing by kept back each of them so that no

harm ^vas then done. Robert went away, and against the said day of
contest (luctamen) sought in Meath one John de Bratkeky a wrestler
{/lictufur), and taking with him all the force he could obtain, came to
the contest in the company of Hugh, for the ijurpose of doing injui-y
to Adam. When this was told to David le Mazyner, he knowing the
cause ol the coming of Robert with his armed party, sent Lambert his
brother to Adam warning him not to, go out before David's coming.
He hastened there and doubting that evil would ensue took a friendly
ari-angement (diem' mnoris) between Robert and Adam, by secvirity to
stand to the judgment of good men. And it wa* afterwards agreed
between them that each of them shonld disarm and carry on the contest
in a fair manner. On which Robert and his men disarmed and sat
in the place where the contest was to be. And Robert Schynnagh
with many others of the town went out to the place armed. And
Hugh, Robert Breynok, and others of their company, perceiving this,
arose, and Hugh taking a bow shot at them, and in the conflict Rieard
struck Robert Schynnagh with an hatchet {liacli'w) on the arm. And
because it does not appear to the jurors whether the wound be a
mayhem or not, it is permitted that upon this they have advisei with
the physician having care of the wounded man, and he being sworn is
associated with them for this cause.
Judgment that Robert Schynnagh recover against Rieard his
damages taxed by the court, at present, at 10 marks, and let him await
further taxation if by process of time it be found that the wound is
mayhem. And let Rieard be conunitted to gaol. And because Robert
came armed against the agreement, when the others disarmed them-
selves, by which he gave occasion for the misdeed,' let him be conunitted
to gaol.
It is found by the same Jury that Hugh, and Robert Breynok are
culpable and the origin of the Avhole mischief. Robert being serjeant
of the King to whom belongs the preservation of the peace brought his
force for the purpose of evildoing. And Hugh shot at men of the town
Avho had done him no evil.
Judgment that they be conunitted to gaol.
Afterwards the trespass is pardoned to Robert son of Robert
Shynnagh, on account of the grave injury he sustained without having
done any evil.
Kildare. Robert Breynok for the King and for himself v. John de Boneuill.
It is found by the same jury that John did not inhibit his tenants te
answer Robert, a serjeant of the King, but that Robert by precept of
the Sheriff went to John and demanded from him pledges to acquit the
Sheriff in the Exchequer, of certain debts directed to be levied from
John. John a.nswered liim: You ribald, you are my enemy. I will not
find pledges to you, but I inhibit you to do any office in my land
under penalty of life and limbs. But do you immediately find pledges
to mc to answer in my court. Robert, who is tenant of John, found
pledges to him. Then John's wrath being somewhat soothed, he said
to Robert, that he would not find pledges to him, but if he would
bring him any serjeant of the King who was not under Robert, he
would find to him the pledges which Robert demanded from him. On
wdiich Robert brought one of his subserjeants alleging that he was
not one of his men. And to that serjeant John forthwith found
pledges which Robert before demanded from him. Therefore it is
adjudged [entry unfnislied].

Pleas of Plaints at Tristeld[ermot] in the Quinzaine of
S. Michael.
Simon son of Ric. Clement complains that John de Hale detains a
writing by which Ph. de Staunton was bound to John in 20 marks for
a horse bought from him by pledge of Ricard. He says that John in
the court of the liberty of Kildare recovered against him lOZ. in arrear
of said debt, and after payment made he demanded from John that
the writing should bo delivered to him. John still detains it.
John says he is not bound to answer this complaint, because the
Avriting cannot give him action against the heirs of Philip ; because
Simon ought to have demanded it of the court at the time when
judgment was given against him for the debt. He says also that the
writing was delivered to the coairt, and did not come to his hands;
this he is ready to show as the coiii't may adjudge.
Because Simon omitted to demand it from said court, it is adjudged

because it appears to the Court that Nich. Passelewe, who is serjeaut
in this county, can exercise no office in the liberty which is outside
the county, the Sheriff, wdio did nothing, is in mercy. And he is

Yet of Pleas at Tristeldermod, before John Wogan in the Oct. 13.
QuiNZAiNE OF S. Michael.
The King sent his writ: Edward &c. to John Wogan &c. Ric. de England.
Burgo earl of Ulster has prayed that whereas Oconoghur an Irishman, Connacht.
who has perpeti-ated many homicides and robberies in the Earl's land
of Connacht, and continues to do so in hurt of the King's peace,
holds in farm land of the King in Connacht called Scilmorthy, it
might be granted to the Earl or another Englishman, for as much
yearly rent as the said Irishman has hitherto been accustomed to
render, or in exchange for land of same value in the land of* peace.
Wogan is to enquire if without injury to the King or other,- h& might
enfeoff the Earl or other Englishman ; and how much the land is worth
j^early. He is to send the inquisition to the King. Teste at
Wymelingwelde, 13 July a. r. xxxiii.
By pretext of which the Justiciar proceeded to make inquisition :
Inquisition taken at Tristeldermod before John Wogan, in the
quinzaine of S. Michael a. r. xxxiii., by the following- jurors: Robert
Gent, Math. Dreu, Stephen Talry, John Flemeng, Nich. Foleiambe,
of said land of Scilmorth}^ Jordan de Exon', John de Staunton,, Ric.

Who say that after the land of Scilmorthy, which contains 5
cantreds, came to the hands of the King after the conquest which
William de Burgo made of Connacht, a certain Irishman, by name
Feylym Oconoghur, wdio called himself King of Connacht, held said
5 cantreds of King Henry, father of the present King, rendering
yearly 500 marks, and Felym all his life kept the peace and faithfulh^
paid his rent. After his death, his son arose and became a felon of
the King, and slew the lawful Englishmen of those parts, and moved
common w-ar against the present King, and threw down his castles of

Uo.scomau and Haundon (which castle, of lloscoman, Robert Dufford,
the tirst time that he was justiciar of the King, fortified at inestimable
costs). On account of which he was outlawed and died a felon. So
that from the death of Felym Oconoghur to the time when Robert
Dufford came again justiciar, the King took little or nothing from
said land excejDt one cantred called Omanyi which the King had given
to Ric. de la Rokele in fee farm. And Robert in his second coming,
with great armies, again fortified the castle of Roscoman, and he
demised to Oconoghur two and a half cantreds of said land towards
great Irecheria, Connacht and Ulster, to farm, viz. the cantred of
Mojlurg and Tyrelele and the cantred of Tothes, except one villata
of land called Clonmaggauenan which belonged to Ric. de Calue, now
in the hand of the King, by minority of Ricard's heir, and the half
cantred of Moyhe, rendering to the King yearly 100 ma/rks. And so
divers justiciars, to divers Irish ol that name, by the like farm,
demised the two and a half cantreds; but the Irish rarely paid the
whole farm, and often nothing.
And they say that said two and a half cantreds are worth in common
years in time of peace, in all issues, 100 marks; and that if the
Irish were driven from those parts, and the land assessed to faithful
men, those two and a half cantreds would be worth 250 marks yearly,
as said Felym rendered for them. But this cannot, be done without
a great force of the King, and inestimable expense exceeding the value
of the land. Especially as Oconoghur is one of the five Irish captains
of Ireland.
And they say that the King, without injury to himself or other, may
enfeoff the Earl, or other whom he will, of said two and a half cantreds
which Oconoghur now holds, except said villata. And they say that
it will be to the advantage of the King and his faithful people of those
parts if the King give that land to the Earl in exchange for 100
marcates of land or rent in land of peace. Esj^ecially as the Earl has
his lands in Connacht and Ulster, and a' great force of English and
Irish adjoining tliat land, b}^ which he would be better able to chastise
the Irish of that land, than another.

Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to take them, and have them at

By petition of Ricard de Burgo earl of Ulster, the King has learned VT"f^f''"'
that half of the town of Down (ch Buno) and the service and dominium
of 22 carucates of land in Letli C'athel and Ardo which belong to the
Earl by hereditary right, and of which Walter, formerly earl, his
father, was seised when he died, were alienated from him while under
age and in custody of the King. The King directed the Justiciar to
enquire whether this were so ; and return the inquisition to the King.
By pretext of which mandate, the Justiciar understanding that
formerly, by like writ at suit of the Earl by Nigel le Brun who sued
for him, inquisition was made in this court by jurors of this county
and CO. Loueth in presence of the Prior of Down {de Buno) who holds
said tenements, and claimed to hold them of the King in capite, and
pleading as well for the King as for himself against the right which
the Earl claims. He caused the Sheriff of this county and the Sheriff
of Loueth to be commanded to have here at this day the jurors of said
inquisition to repeat their verdict; and besides them that he put

Dublin sununon the Prior of Down to be here to say, as well for the
King as himself, what he may see expedient in this part.
And the Earl now comes, and the jurors. And likewise the Prior ;
and he says he holds &aid service, dominium and moieity. Asked of
whom : He says he claims to hold his priory and its temi>oralitiesi of the
King- in capite. On which he is demanded of this, that he caused him-
self to be elected to the priory, the royal licence not being asked or
obtained : Likewise that he should amswer to the King for the issues
of the temporalities of the priory for thirty years past, from the time
of the death of his fourth predecessor, when he and his next pre-
decessors held the temporalities and caused themselves to be elected
priors without licence. He says that he has not a day here to answer
such questions, nor does he come prepared to answer. And he prays
to be given a reasonable day for this. A day is given him to the
quinzaine of S. Hilary. And in the meantime let the rolls and
memoranda of the Exchequer, Dublin, be searched as to this, if the
King in any vacancy was in seisin of the temporalities of said priory,
or not.
Afterwards the Earl said that at present he does not wish to^ sue
the taking of the inquisition. Therefore the jurors go sine die.
Afterwards at that day, comes the Prior and pleads as in the roll
of pleas of said term.
^Dublin, Ilicard de Burgo earl of Ulster v. Will. Waspayl. It is found by
Catherlagh ^j^^ ■^^^,^. ^j^^^ William, at the time when the Earl was in< the King's
service in the last war in Scotland, caused to be made in the soil of
said Earl outside the paling of his park of Balydonegan, a pit (fossata)
but not for deer (feris) asi the Earl complains, but for taking foxes.
And likewise that William's men, in said time, sometimes by licence of
the Earl's parker of said park, sometimes without it, entered the park
and ascended the oaks and other trees, and cut the branches and
carried them to William's manor; and there they were burned, and
otherwise expended in his service, with William's assent. Likewise
that William's servants broke the paling of the park, and carried it to
his manor, and there it was burned in his presence, with his know-
ledge. Likewise that Jolm Wasjoail, Simon C'adel, John Bockelei, and
Puderlyn le Clerk, taking with them AVilliam's greyhounds, entered
said park to take deer (feris) without licence, but took nothing;
William then being at Catherlagh at the pleas there, who knew nothing
of it. Likewise that when a deer {fera) came out of the park John
Waspail and other men of William chased it, and one of them shot it,
and when the arrow was found in the park William demanded it from
the parker, threatening him unless he should return it. And like-
wase William entered the park without licence and with a small spear,
called " fawe," shot {sagittavit) a deer which within three days died,
and afterwards he took the spear from the hands of David son of
Thomas, sub-parker, whoi found it. But the parker finding the deer
slain, sent it to Edmund le Botiller then being at Tylagh.
It is adjudged that the Earl recover his damages against William,
to be taxed by the court. And let William be committed to gaol.
And let him have prison for three years; and afterwards let him be
redeemed according to the form of the Statute.
Afterwards William made fine as well for said trespass, as for others
imputed to him, as appears in the rolls of pleas of plaints of tJie

The King directed John de Ponte to send the record and process
of an assise of Novel disseisin which Walter son of William de Dermor
arraigned before him and John son of Robert, by writ, against Thomas
le Bret and Elena his wife, and William de Dermor, of tenements in
Dermor. He sent it:
Pleas of assises at Cassell before John de Ponte and John son
of Robert, justices assigned, on Tuesday before the feast of S.
Peter ad vincula, a. r. xxxii.
Assise of Novel disseisin. If Will. Dermor, Thomas son of
Walter le Bret, and Elena his wife disseised Walter son of William
Dermor of his freehold in Dermor, one messuage, 100 acres of
land, 100 a. of wood, 100 a. of moor, and 12 a. of 'meadow.
William comes. Thomas and Elena come and say the assise
ought not to be taken between them because formerly before John
de Ponte and his fellows justices, they brought a writ of Novel
disseisin against said Walter of these tenements and recovered
them by judgment of the court. And they pray judgment if
there ought to be assise upon assise; and if he will deny this,
they are prepared to verify it.
And Walter says that the assise ought not to be delayed by
that exception, because before Thomas and Elena had any estate
in the tenements, he was in good and peaceful seisin of them as
of freehold, until by W^illiain, Thomas and Elena he was disseised.
The Jurors say that Walter w^as seised as of freehold before
Elena had any estate there, and was so seised until by William,
Thomas and Elena he was unjustly disseised.
Judgment that Walter recover seisin by view of the recognitors
of the assise, with his damages taxed by the assise at 12 marks,
William, Thomas, and Elena in mercy for disseisin.
And at suit of Thomas and Elena complaining that in the record
and process error intervened. Walter now comes. And Thomas and
Elena, complain that the Justices erred in that when, before the
Justices in the taking of the assise, they alleged brevity of summons,
and also of the attachment, to wit, whereas the original writ was
given at Clonmele on 4 July a. r. xxxii., and the tenements were in
Elyogryd, and the serjeant of those parts was dwelling in Slefardagli,
so that having respect to the date of the writ, the distance of the
places, and the day in which vieAV was made, it might manifestly
appear to the Justices as well as to the brevity of summons as of the
attachment; the Justices not allowing their reasons proceeded to take
the assise. They say also that the Justices erred in that when Thomas
and Elena alleged against certain recognitors of the assise, viz., Ric.
the miller of Naasich, David Breynok, of same, Ph. Bolle of same,

and Peter Not of same, that they ought not to be in the assise, because
Thomas impleaded them in the King's court by writ of trespass, so
that at his suit, liicard and the others were heavily punished by
damages which he recovered against them, the JusticfS not allowing
that allegation proceeded to the taking of the assise. And they pray
that the errors be corrected, and justice done them. And because
said errors are not contained in the record sent here, they pray the
completion of the record.
And Walter acknowledges that Thomas and Elena alleged before
the Justices brevity of sunmions and attachment, viz., of less time
than 15 days, but the Justices by examination made, as is customary,
found that the stnnmons and attachment contained the space of three
weeks and more. He likewise acknowledges that Thomas alleged,
as he says, against Ric. le Mouner and others. But by other jurors
of the same assise, it was tried by the same Justices that upon the
dissensions between them, peace was restored ; and so he says that the
Justices duly proceeded. Therefore John de Ponte was directed to
supplement the record, and send it to the Justiciar in the quinzaine
of S. Hilary.
Afterwards at that day come the parties. And John de Ponte sent
the supplement: Exception of brevity of summons was not allowed.
And because John did not return whether he voluntarily did not admit
the exception, or that he found that the time of summons was
sufficiently long, therefore he is directed to send the supplement of
the record under his seal at the three weeks of Easter.
Afterwards at that day continued to the morrow of the Ascension,
Thomas and Elena come, and Walter comes not; by which it is
adjudged that they proceed to reading and correction, by his default.
And John de Ponte returned that the exception as to brevity of the
attachment was proposed and not allowed, viz., that the attachment
was made on Saturday, and the assise taken on Tuesday following.
Therefore a day was given to Thomas and Elena by their attorney,
to the morrow of Holy Trinity, to hear judgment.
Afterwards at that day Thomas and Elena by their attorney come.
And because John de Ponte did not return as he was directed whether
the exception of brevity of attachment was voluntarily quashed ; he is
directed, as before, to send his full record at the quinzaine of S. John
Baptist.
Afterwards at that day, at Dublin, come the parties and John de
Ponte returned that the' exception of brevity of the attachment was
alleged and quashed by the Justices without examination of the assise,
viz., that the attachment was made on Saturday and the assise taken on
Tuesday following; and that the exceptions were voluntarily quashed;
and that the allegation against persons was not allowed.
Afterwards at that day, continued as from day to day to Thursday
the morrow of S. Margaret the virgin, at Cassell, came the parties.
And because it appears to the court that the return of John de Ponte
is not sufficient, therefore he and John son of Bobert justices assigned,
being present in court, are more fully examined. They record that
the exception as to brevity of attachment was proposed before them,
and was tried by a jury of the country, that the attachment did not
contain the space of fifteen days ; nevertheless they proceeded to the
taking of the assise. They record also that Thomas alleged against
certain recognitors of the assise that they ought not to be in it, on
account of certain dissensions between them ; but it wa.s tried that
concernine- those dissensions, peace was restored between them.

John was born at Crosmalgorym in this county, and baptized in the
church of same town, as is said. The Sheriff was commanded to have
a jury in the quinzaine of St. John Baptist last, by which proof of age
should be known. And the Sheriff caused to come jurors unfit for
this, such as knew nothing. Therefore the Sheriff is again com-
manded to s.ummon, for the quinzaine of S. Hilary, knights and
others. And let him be hero to hear judgment. And Henry Belscot,

John Fanyn, 102 marks for Ph. Cristofre assignee of Jordan de Exon',
which Jordan and luuui' his wife deceased, recovered against him by
judgment in court at Tristeldermot. And the Sheriff returned that
John Fanyn has nothing, because his lands and chattels were taken
for debts of the King, before the receijDt of this writ.
On this came Philip and challenged the return, and saj's that John
has lands in this county which the Sheriff has not taken. And he
prays that this be enquired, and the Sheriff — Albert de Kenleye, like-
wise.
Therefore the Slieriff is commanded to summon a jury. And on
this Philip showed to the Court, that John had many more tenements
in this county, than he now has, when the Justices of the Bench, by
erroneous judgment, adjudged said 102 marks to be levied from \\\!,
lauds, wherefore he prays that the money be levied from the lauds and
chattels which were John's, on the day when the Justices adjudged the
money to be levied from the lands and chattels of' Philip, when they
ought to have adjudged it to be levied from the lands and chattels of
John, as appears by the annulling of the judgment.
The Sheriff was commanded to levy 40.5;. from the 6. acres of wheat,
each worth half a mark, of Hugh de la Hide, which the Sheriff took

of which plea came before Wogan to correct error. And afterwards on
the complaint of Walter de Callan, son and heir of said Robert, it
was shown that in the process before Wogan error intervened, the King
had caused the record to come before himself, and because it was
found in the record and process sent, that Reginald is dead, Wogan is

Because on the relation of many, the Court is given to understand Dublin,
that William son of John wanders about in, the parts of Shangenagh,

of the visne of Shangenagh, and others. And if William be indicted,
then to take him, with those who encourage and knowingly receive
him, and keep them in prison until further commanded.
The Sheriff returns that 12 good men of the visne of Shangenagh

By pretext of which the Justiciar proceeded to enquire :
Inquisition taken at Tristeldermot before John Wogan justiciar,
iit the quinzaine of S. Michael a. r. xxxiii., by Walter de Valle, Ric.
du Lyt, John de Staunton, Will. Gaynard, Will. Haket, and Walter
Haket, knights, Adam le Poer, Michael de Kerdyf, Hamund son of
Thomas, Ph. son of Adam, Geoffrey Husee, Stephen le Proude, Will,
le Waleys, and Nich. le Hore, of the county Connacht.
The( Jurors say that Tj-perbride and Loghre are distant from one
another almost 30 leagues; and that it would be much to the advan-
tage of the King and country if sxich chantry should be established
in one or other of those places, if for no other reason, for, teaching
of the boys of those parts where such learning is very scant. As to
the 40 librates of land in Loghre and Typerbride, and the advowsons
of the churches of those manors, they say that iti is not to the damage
of the King or others, except that in the case of escheat or in time of
custody by the minority of an heir, the King would lose the custody of
said land and his presentation to said churches if they should become
vacant in time of the custody ; because the Earl holds both manors,
with all other his lands in, Connacht, which are woi"th yearly more
than lOOOZ., of the King in capite, by the sex-vice of 20 knights fees,
and a rent of 500 marks yearly. And they say that the church of
Loghre is worth yearly 20^., aind the church of Typerbride 6 marks.
And besides his lands in Connacht there remain to the Earl, in
Meath, Ulster, Leinster and Munster, more than 1000/. of land which
he holds of the King in capite. But of the churches of S. Nicholas of
Knocfergus, Green Castle, Balybony, Douncros, Loghkel, and Portros,
which are in Ulster, very far from Connacht, they know nothing.
In witness the jvirors put their seals. Dated on said day. And the
inquisition with the writ are sent to the King.
And Will. Haket, Will. Clifton, John Broun and Robert son of
Elias, jurors summoned, come not. And Will. liaket was attached

Wodeloc, of a plea that he should be here to sliow wlierefore he carried
away Isolda daughter of John Lenfaunt, wife of said Nicholas, at the
Boly near Kilros, with goods of said Nicholas. And he came not.
And the Sheriff was commanded to attach him.
And the Sheriff returned that Hugh could not find pledges, and
that he has not whereby he may be distrained. Therefore he is com-
manded to take him and have him to answer at tlie quinzaine of S.
Hilary. And the Sheriff to judgment becaui^e.lie did not^ attach him.
Limerick The Sheriff was commanded to levy 100.?. from the I'^nd'^ and goods

have nothing in co. Lymerick. The Sheriff levied of W. de Dun-
douenyld 40s., and will bring them to Dublin in the three weeks of
S. Michael. W. de D. has not more from which the money could be
levied, because his lands and chattels in the bailiwic of Otheny are in
the hand of the Earl of Ulster, for a plea of David le Jeofne, for
arrear of his account.
Because the Sheriff has not executed the precept, and because he
has not returned whether W. de D. has other tenements than in
Oethonny, he is in mercy. And he is commanded as before.

The Sheriff was commanded to have here at this day a jury to prove
the age of Mary and Mabilla, daughters and heirs of Ph. de Ridele-
fford deceased who held of the King in capite, who say that they are
of full age.
The Sheriff now returns a jury to wit:
Will. Wydon who, sworn and examined, says that Mary was of the
age of 23 years on the vigil of S. Mary Magdalen last. He knows this
by common fame current in this country, which was that Mary was
born to Philip, of his wife then being in FyngalJ, on the day when
Arth McMurth was slain; who was slain on said vigil. And it is
known in the whole country that 23 years are passed since Arth
McMurgh was slain. He says also that Mabilla, the sister of Mary, is
of less age than Mary by two years and a quarter. This likewise he
knows by common fame.
Ric. Caprich says that Mary is of said age. And he knows this,
because Philip was living in the house of Ricard's father when Ricard
bought a horse from Henry d© Rideksford ; and Philip was his pledge.
And Mary was then four years of age. And Ricard had tliat horse for
6 years and sold it; and for the price made for himself a stone house.
And 13 years are elapsed from the time he began to build that house.
Roger Capi-ich says that his father was bailiff of Philip, and he
heard his father often compute the age of Mary by the death of said
Arth, because she was born on the day of Ills' death. And he agrees
in all with William.
John de la More says that Mary is of the age of 23 years, and he
agrees in all with William.
William Semblaunt agrees in all with William ; adding that w4ien
Mary was born, her mother sent a message by his father that she was
born.
Silvester Calf says that 20 years are past from the time that Philip
and he were companions; and before that time, there were born to
him these two daughters.
Walter Dullard, Walter Ponchard, Ric. Vainal, John Coytrot, Ph.
de Moon, Robert Dm, and John le Reue of Usk, sworn singly and
examined, say that they know nothing of their age except only by
common fame, which savs that they are of full age.
Proof is delivered into the Chancery with the writ; and the Chan-
cellor is told to make a writ of seisin for them.

Casshell, and Geoffrey appeared afterwards before the Justicas and
prayed to be admitted to prove an exception put forward by his bailiff
in the taking of the assise, according to the form of the Statute,
because an assise of Mort d' ancestor was before taken between same
parties of same rent, before Wogan ; the Justices did not admit
the averment. Wogan is to bring before him the record and process
of the assises and having examined them, and inspecte'd the Statute,
to correct what is wrong. And if there be difficulty, then to send the
record under his seal to the King, so that lie have it in the quinzaine
of S. Mai-tin. Testte at Milkhouses 1 July a. r. xxxiii.
And formerly in the t-erm of S. Hilary a. r. xxxi. at the suit of
Geoft'rey complaining of error in the record of said assise of Novel
disseisin, which suit Geoffrey afterwards lost by non suit, John de
Ponte sent the record :
Pleas at Cassell, before John de Ponte and John son of Robert
justices assigned, in the vigil of the Assumption of S. Mary a. r.

Assise of Novel disseisin. If Geoffrey de Canuill disseised
George de Rupe of his freehold in Lystotowan, 60s. rent.
Geoffrey by his bailiff says he did no injury. And he prays
that it be enquired by assise. Let the assise be taken.
The Jurors say that Gerald de Rupe father of said George,
whose heir he is, was seised in his demesne as of fee, of the
tenement from which the rent came; and afterwards enfeoffed
Luke the chaplain of said tenement, rendering to him 60s. yearly ;
and afterwards Gerald died seised of said rent; and afterwards
came one Ricard son of William guardian of the land of said
George and was seised as guardian of said 60s. rent; and after-
wards George was seised of said rent, as of freehold, until disseised
by said Geoffrey. They say that the arrears are estimated at 40^
and the damages taxed at 10 marks.
Judgment that George recover seisin, and his arreais and
damages. And Geoffrey in mercy for disseisin.
By pretext of which mandate, at the suit of Geoft'rey, the Sheriff of
Tiperai'v was commanded to summon George \ci be here, to' hear the
record, and do what the Court should adjudge.
And he comes not. And the Sheriff returns that ha summoned him
by John Abraham, Will. Henr', Thomas Non-eys, and Adam le
Flemmeng.
And Geoffrey conies by John Bacoun his general attorney, and prays
to be admitted to an exception before put forward before the Justices.
Asked if Geoft'rey ever appeared in person before the Justices assigned,
he says : No.
And because it is doubted in court if Geoffrey ought to be admitted
by attorney to prove an exception put forward by his bailiff in taking
the assise, because the Statute does not make express mention of it,
a day is given to him to hear judgmenti before the King, at the quin-
zaine of S. Martin. Day is not given to George becaiise he did not
appear in court.
And be it known that although the exception is not contained in
said record sent ; yet during the plea by the first writ of Scire facias,
when Geoffrey complained of error in the record, which writ Geoffrey
afterwards lost by his non suit ; Geoffrey prayed the addition of it to the
record. And John de Ponte, and John son of Robert, then present in

this oourt, recorded that in the taking of said assise Geoffrey by his
bailiff excepting, put forward against George that formerly an assise
of Mort d'ancestor passed between them before John Wogau of same
tenement, but they refused to receive that exception, because it was
put forward by a bailiff. And they record that after the taking of the
assise, Geoffrey, by his general attorney, came before them and prayed
to be admitted to prove the exception formerly put forward by tlie
bailiff, according to the form of the Statute/ Whom the Justices
would not admit to this, because they could not do justice to him in
this, because the assise of Mort d'ancestor was taken before the
Justiciar of Ireland, their superior, whom they could not direct to
make the assise come before them.
Nor is the original writ of the assise of Novel disseisin sent with the
record, because on 4 Dec. a. r. xxxi. by like writ which the King sent
to his Justiciar, dated at Stragheghyn, 27 July a. r. xxxi., the record
of said assises with said original writ, and the record of the plea before
the Jiisiticiax, because Geoffrey complaiued that there was error in the
assise, were delivered to Will, de Canuill, in the name of Geoffrey, to
carry to the King. The writ of the King, with the record as above
contained, are delivered to John Bacoun, general attorney of Geoffrey,
to carry to the King in England.
The Sheriff was commanded, that the crop of 20 acres, lately taken, Tippeiaiy.
of Robert Wodeloc, and for which buyers are not found, he should
deliver by reasonable price to William de Monte and his fellows
merchants, in part payment of 35^. in arrear of 120/. which Robert in
court at Cassell acknowledged that he owed them. And the residue to
levy from the lands and chattels of Robert j a;nd if he have not
sufficient then from John de Weyuill his pledge.
And the Sheriff returns that he commanded Walter Maunsell chief
Serjeant, who answers : Will, de Monte would not receive the goods
before taken, by reasonable price from the chief Serjeant.
And on this comes William and says that he was ready to receive
them at reasonable price, and often requested the Sheriff' and serjeants
thereto, who would not do it. And he prays judgment because the
Sheriff did not fully make execution, to wit when the writ made
mention of 35/. to be levied, there are presented goods of the value of
71. 13s., as appears by his return, and of the residue he answers
nothing. Therefore the Sheriff', Henry Haket, in heavy mercy. And
let William await the taxation of damages against him. And the
Sheriff' is commanded as before; and to make return at the quinzaine
of S. Martin. And let him have the serjeant to answer because the
precept is not executed; and to show, wherefore his bailiwic should
not be forfeited to the King.

they are exposed for sale, but, for fear of William, buyers are not

the town of the Naas, at this day. Will. Rydel, by precept of Albert
his lord went to the house of Thomas le Lange, father of Philip, and
asked Thomas to give his lord hay for his horses. Thomas commanded
two of his servants to give hay for four horses tq William Rydel and
William Bastard his fellow. William Rydel refused the hay which the
servants offered, and going to a full stack of hay wanted to take the
hay from it, and the servants would not suffer this. So that wrangling
words rising between them, the noise reached the household
of Thomas. And Philip went there, and seeing his father's men
disputing and struggling with the Sheriff's men, he would have
separated them. And Will. Rydel, whom one of those who tried to
still the quarrel, held by the right arm lest he should do mischief with
an axe (spartha) which he had, seeing that he could' not strike with
his right hand, took the axe in his left hand, and struck Ph. son of
Thomas on the arm, and cut the great bone almost to the marrow; sO'
that liis life is doubted of, or at least that he mav have mavhein from
it.
Judgment that Philip recover his damages to be taxed by the court,
and William Rydel be committed to gaol. And he is delivered to
Albert de Kenleye the sheriff, to g-iiard, as convicted of trespass from
which a felony is doubted.
Thomas de Cauntelou v. Adam le Tanner of the Naas. It is found Kildare.
by the same Jury that when Thomas aljout the nativity of S. John tlie
Baptist a. r. xxxii., was in the town of the Naas to sell the laanbs of
Ph. le Flemeng his lord, a woman who hated Thomas, went to Adam
le Tanner, and told liim that Thomas, before all the people in the
market of said towli, abused Adam with insulting words. Whicli
when Adam heard, he then being Seneschal of the Baron of the Naas,
by virtue of his bailiwic, commanded two of the Serjeants of the town
to attach Thomas. On which the Serjeants went to him and led
Thomas between them towards the house of Adam. And Adam meet-
ing them ; seeing Thomas so atta-clied, asked the Serjeants : Is this he
who abused me l)efore all the people? Who answering with the woman
said. Yes. And Adam moved with anger, struck Thomas with his fist
twice or thrice badly on the nose. And he took froin Tbomas, so being
led \jO' prison, an axe, and struck him witli it on the head and gave
him a severe wound. For Avhich he has not yet made satisfaction to
him.
Judgment that Thomas recover his damages, to be taxed bv the
court, and Adam be committed to gaol.
Afterwards at the instance of George de Rupe and for the good
service which tlforge did to the King in the company of tlie Justiciar,
the trespass is ])ardoned to Adam.

ment was made between the country men (homines agres'fes) of the

{quoddam luciamen) proclaimed for a mutton to be contested for
lately near the Naas, in the autumn last, between the country men
of the barony and the men of the town ; Adam le Tanner of the Naas
secretly commanded all the men of the town, as their seneschal, that
each, under pain of half a mark to be paid (o the lord, should come to
the contest armed. So that the men against said ordinance and agree-
ment, came to the contest armed. On account of which, the peace in

the parts of the Naas is much diminished, and' divers ills, as shown
to the court, have happened. And that Adam by virtue of his bailiwic
takes his prises on poor men in the town ; by which the men are miich
deteriorated.
Adam says that the proclamation to come with arms, was not made
by him or by his precept. Nor did he take such prises except by will
of the men, on paying money. But hei says that Robert Braynok
made such prises at his will to the great deterioration of th6 public
weal.
Robert says : No. And he prays that the truth be enquired by the
country. Let there be a jury.
And Ph. Tothlan, Thomas le Lange, Thomas North, Michael de
Welles, John son of Peter, Will. Gyllot, Ph. son of Adam, Will. Joye,
Thomas le Deyer, Thomas Hereford, Geoffrey Chyld, and Will. Kyft,
jvu'ors, say that Adam commanded the men of the town to come anned
under pain as aforesaid. Therefore let him be committed to gaol.
And as to the prises which Adam is said to have tajken b}' virtue of
his bailiwic, they say that he is guilty. Asked how long; time he is
used to take such prises : they say for six years past. Asked as' to
the value he took of such prises in each year : they say 40c7. yearly.
Therefoi^e let him be committed to gaol.
Of Robert Breynok, they say that he is accustomed to take horses
and afers of divers men of the town and adjoining parts, to
make his carriage, against their will ; and to pay nothing for the
carriage. Therefore let him be committed to gaol.
Thej' say for the King, that Geoffrey Breynok, and Hugh de la
Hyde, who are present, and Henry de SaJresfeld and Will, le Wayte a
man of David le Mazyner, avIio are not here, take divers small things
of the men of the town, and pay nothing for them. Therefore let

8on of John was, and wished to enter his house, a little dog of Henry's
was in the street before Henry, which iie struck slightly with his axe
{spciHlia) to remove it from his path. Henry moved by this, followed
Thomas into his house and asked him why he struck his dog. Who
answered that he did not know the dog was his, nor did he strike it
with any evil purpose; but if he injured him he offered to make him
amends, and for this offered pledges. He refused to receive this, but
went away with threats of life and limb. And afterwards accom-
panied by said William, and John le Botiller, William son of Ricard,
and John de Kyllyth. he returned to' the house, and although Thomas
cO'Ui'teous] y answered them, and offered in good manner to make amends
to Henry for striking the dog, they refused to receive such amends and
took his axe, and a belt with a knife, and laid violent hands on him,
and struck and ill treated him as Thomas complains. And Henry
and the others afterwards went from the house, and threw into it the
axe they bad taken.

Will, de BerdefPeld, who sues for the King, showed to the Court,
that whereas Roger le Bygod earl of Norfolk and Marescal of England,
on the day wlien he surrendered all his lands and tenements in Ireland
to the King, and afterwards received them of the King, to hold to
him and the heirs of his body, was seised of a tenement in the town of

in same town whicli belonged to Walter Horlowe ; Milo d© Radburgh
seneschal of the Earl's lands in Ireland aliened one of the tenements
to Robert Helle, aind the other to Henry de Droghda in fee, in pre-
judice and disherison of the King, especially as the Earl has not yet
such an heir.
Robert Helle comes, and being asked what lie claims in the tene-
ment, says: Fee and freehold. For Robert Mangaunt his cousin,
whose heir he is, died seised as of fee. On which he went to the
Seneschal and prayed tliat he would do him justice. On which the
Seneschal, having found by inquisition which he caused to be made,
that Robert Mangaunt was seised, and tliat Robert Hell is his next
heir, rendered seisin to him as his inheritance.
And because Robert Helle cannot deny that the Earl was in seisin
of the tenement when he rendered his lands in Ireland to the King,
and likewise on the day when tlie King re-enfeoffed the Earl, therefore
let the tenement be taken into the hand of the King, and let enquiry
be made of the yearly value of the issues.
The Jurors say that it is worth yearly 12s. beyond reprises.
Afterwards because the jurors testify that Milo the Seneschal made
the alienation, without the Earl. Let the tenement be re-delivered to
the Earl, to hold as he held it before the alienation.
And as to the other which Henry de Droghda holds, the Jurors testify
that Henry claims the fee, and that it is worth yearly 10.s\ And lie
comes not." Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to take the tenement
into the King's hand.

Kilcolan. It is found by tlie Jury that Walter unjustly distrained
her by her plough cattle, for defaults of a suit which he unjustly
exacted from her, for 7 acres of land which she holds of him by the
sei'vice of one halfpenny yearly for all service, and whereof William is
purchaser of the lordship of the tenement from one Regin. Caperoun
feoffor of Eva ; who by his charter gra.nted to her that slie should not
be impleaded for any forfeiture in the court of him his heirs or
assigns, nor pay any mercy. But that she and her heirs and assigns
be quit as neighbour to neighbour. So that he ougM not to have
other state upon her than Reginald had. And that he took from her
at one time about six years past three oxen worth 15«., one bull and
one young ox worth lis. And aftei^wairds at another time, 8 cows
worth 5.<t. feach], which he still detains with him ; taking the issues of
the cows and putting one of the oxen in his plough ; under colour of
divers mercies whicli he without reasonable cause exacted from her, to
the sum of four marks, as Walter acknowledges. And so by such
unjust vexation he has impoverished Eva and devastated the tenement
bj'^ said distraints and taking of the chattels of Eva, so that it re-
mained Avaste for two years and more. And then he recovered the
tenement against her by writ called Ces^Korif per hirnniinu, in the
court of the liberty of Kylkenny, because she did not pay him two
halfpennies for said two years, who for said causes was impoverished
and not able to pay the rent.

Adam's, and for those 8/. he is; ready to account with the executors.
And the executors say that Adam was the merchant of Ricard for

Afterwards at that day at Dublin, the parties came. And the
Auditors sent an inquisition by which they werq informed that Adam
was the merchant of Ricard, taking the third part of the profit. And
they sent the account, by which they found that Adam owe® the
executors 14^.
And Adam says that he ought not to be charged with said lU.
because corn which he bought in England for 11/. he had carried to
the King's army in Bayonne and there it was worth 111. And by the
Earl of Lincoln, lieutenant of the King there, he was given the choice
that the King should have the corn or that Adam should sell it to
John Lestraunge. And because John formerly made him good pay-
ment he gave the corn to him for 21/. to) be paid in England. The

money.
Therefore a day is given to them in the quinzaine of Holy Trinity.
And in the meantime let Adam sue in England against John
Lestraunge if he will. And Ric. de Gildeford, John de Wyncestre,
Ric. Russell, and Gervase de Counte mainprised Adam.

William and the others defend and say that they are not bound to
answer this count, for Walter in his count says that he was travelliug
to Cassell to expedite the common affairs of the King, and in the writ
it is contained that he was going by command of the King to prorogue
common assises; and they pray judgment of the variance.
Walter cannot deny this. Judgment that he be in mercy for false
claim.
The Sheriff was commanded' to levy froln Robert Wodeloc and John
Weyuile his pledge, for William de Monte and his fellow merchants

The goods of WiUiam son of Roger, to- witi, 22 porks worth each
10<'/., 27 sheep worth each 8^7., and T) afers worth each 5,?., were taken
into the hand of the King for said debt in the time of Henry Haket,
late Sheriff; and by Geoffrey Haket serjeant of the Ring, were de-
livered to said Henry, and Will, son of Ricard his attorney, for said
debt, and for a debt of the King's marshal. William has no other
goods except uncultivated land.
On this comes William son of Roger and showed to the Court that
although Henry the Sheriff and William son of Ricard his sub-sheriff
received said goods, they did not make satisfaction to William de
Bourne according to the King's precept. For which William son of
Roger is compelled to leave his land waste for fear of the Sheriff
wishing again to lew the money from his chattels, if he should hnd
them.
Tlierefore tlie Sheriff is commanded to attacli Henry and William
son of Ricxrd, and have them to answer for their contempt and tres-

By pretext of which, at suit of William, the Sheriff was commanded
to cause to come, at this day, Nich. Shereman and Adam de Bristoll,
late bailiffs of the town of Ros, to answer William.
And the parties now come. And Nicholas and Adam, demanded of

[cum manu opere) of 60'*. Id., which one coming on behalf of William
said were stolen from said church ; who however would make nO' suit

{pochia), and gave it under his seal to Nicholas and Adam to be kept
to the use of the Earl. They kept it until the coming of the auditors
of the Earl's accounts, who received the money from them. Nor was
a greater sum found with said thief. And they pray that it be
enquired. And William likewise.
The Jurors say that said thief was taken in the town of Ros cum
manu oj)€i-e of 60.s\ Id. : that a clerk, Geoffrc}^ by name, announced to
the bailiff's that the money was stolen from William, out of said ^
church. And when it was asked of Geoffrey (son of said William as
is said) if he would sue against the thief for th€t money, lie said: No,
because he is a clerk. By which John de Houton the seneschal of the
Earl caused the money to be put on deposit with Nicholas and Adam,

of Dundalk. And if he died after the Coronation. And if Alice is
his next heir. Whereof Will. Hughe and Roesia his wife hold one
acre, and Isabella Gosceiyn holds one acre.
William and Roesia come. Isabella does not come. William and
Roesia say that Adam the uncle did not die seised, for he enfeoffed
them of said acre by his charter, which they i^roffer, which testifies
this. And they had seisin by livery of Adam. And of this, they put
themselves on the assise.
Almaric le Loung, one of the recognitors summoned, comes not,
therefore in mercy.
The Jurors say that Adam was not seised in fee when he died, but
that he enfeoffed William and Roesia of that tenement, of his good will
and special affection towards them ; and they continued their seisin
by that feoffment until now, without interruption.
Judgment: Alice in mercy for false claim. Isabella to be re-
summoned before the Justices assigned to takei assises, at next coming.
The original writ remains with the Sheriff* to deliver to said justices.

messuages with appurtenances.
John Hamme and Eglentina, and the others, except John de Ponte,
come. Luke answers for him as his bailiff. And John Hammo and
Eglentina answer as tenants, that assize ought not to be between
them, because they arraigned an assise of Novel disseisin against said
Ricard, Thomas Kenefek, Ph. Kenefek, and Ph. de Ralawe, of said
two messuages and 20 acres, before John de Ponte and his fellows

John Baptist last. And as to the 20 acres, their plaint was quashed
by this, that Ph. Rallawe, named as a disseisor iu the writ, alleged
that the assise ought not to be made between them because he Avas
enfeoffed of the 20 a. jointly with his wife not named in the writ,
and he prayed judgment. And because John Hamme and Eglentina
could not deny that the wife of Philiji was jointly enfeoffed Avith her
husband, the* plea as to that was quashed. And as to the two
messuages, the assise then passed for John and Eglentina, so that
by judgment of court they recovered the two messuages against
Ricard then tenant of them. And they had seisin by writ of judg-
ment, under the testimony of John de Ponte, directed to Luke then
sheriff' of this county, and by livery of Nich. le Norreys serjeant, aaid
Robert de Belynges in place of the Sheriff". And this they are ready
to prove as the court may adjudge.
And Ricard says that such assise was arraigned before John de Ponte
and his fellows; and that their plaint for the 20 a, Avas quashed. But
tlie assise never passed for the two messuages, before John de Ponte.
For he says that he then said that assise ought not to be made between
them, because he had entry in the two messuages by the charter of
Roger Hamme brother of said John, whose heir he is. Who- bound
liimself and his heirs to warrant said two messuages to Ricard his
heirs and assigns. And so if he should be impleaded of them by
another, John Hamme would be bound to Avarrant them to him. And
so action is not competent to him to demand the tAvo messuages against
Ricard ; nor to Eglentina Avhile her husband is living. And he prayed
judgment. Which judgment John de Ponte and his fellows respited
until another certain day. And then John de Ponte could take no
assise in this county because there supervened a writ of the King
that all assises arraigned before whatever justices should be taken
before Ric. de Exon. and Ric. Taaf ; and then the jurisdiction of
John de Ponte to take said assise, totally eixpired. And that it is so,
he is ready to prove as the court may adjudge.
And John Hamme and Eglentina and the others say, as before, that
the assise passed betAv^een John Hamme and Eglentina, and Ric. de
Gaffeny, P. Ralawe and others, before John de Ponte. And by
recognition of the assise, it Avas adjudged that John Hamme and
Eglentina should recover their seisin of the two messuages, and they . .
were put in seisin by writ of judgment under testimony of John de
Ponte, and thereof he calls the record.
Afterwards in the quinzaine of Easter, at Dublin, Ricard comes;
and John Ham and Eglentina come not, nor do they proff'er the
record of the justices Avhich they called. Therefore it is adjudged
that John Ham and Eglentina be held as disseisors, and that Ricaxd
recover against them his seisin, and damages to be taxed, tAvofold.
And John Ham and Eglentina have prison for three years, according
to the Statute in such case provided. And the Sheriff is commanded
that if it appear that John Ham and Eglentina were in seisin on the
day of suing the Avrit, to Avit, the 15 December last, then he cause
Ricard to have seisin without delay. And because John Hamme and
Eglentina his Avife Avithdrew from court before judgment, the Sheriff
is commanded to take them and send them to gaol.
AfterAvards on the morroAV of S. Martin following, at Dublin, came
the parties; and likewise the recognitors of the assise, aa'Iio taxed the
damages at 8s. Therefore let Ric. Gaffney recover against John and
Eglentina his damages double, to Avit 16.<;. And let John and Emma
{so) be committed to gaol.

Pleas of Plaints before John Wogan Justiciar, at Drogheda on
THE SIDE OF UrIEL, ON FrIDAY THE MORROW OF THE EpIPHANY,
a. r. xxxiy.
Hugh Babe v. Walter de Aluetou of Dondaik. The Jury finds that
when Walteir le Vyneter of ]a Roche slew a beef (^mortus) of his, and
exposed it for sale. After the beef was valued, Hugh entered the
house; to whom W. ki V. immediately said that he was^ abusing {vili-
peadehat) his beef, and he denj'ing this, insulting words being moved
between them, they went out, and Walter le V. went to a fence {haya)
and took out a stick and struck Hugh, which Hugh perceiving, he drew
out his knife to defend himself, and Walter throwing away the stick,
laid hands on Hugh and held him, telling Walter de Alueton to hel])
him lest Hugh should slay him. On which Waltea- de A., with his
drawn sword, struck Hugh on the head almost to the brain.
Judgment that Hugh recover his damages against Walter de
Alueton, to be taxed by the Court. And Walter de A. is committed
to gaol. And because the Jurors testify that Hugh is accustomed to
provoke his neighbours to do evil to him, by insulting words, when he
is drunk; therefore he is committed to gaol.
Afterwards Walter satisfied Hugh for the damages, and made fine
by 20.^. by pledge of Geoffrey de Alueton and John de Alueton. And
prison is pardoned to Hugh.
David Fot complaining against Adaan le Chaiimbreleyn, of a plea
of trespass, gives to the King 40^. for licence to withdraw from his
plaint, by pledge of Adam.
John de Galeweye v. John le Blound. The Jury finds that, of 6
marks in which John le Blound was bound to John de Galeweye, for
a house in the street of S. Augustin in thei town! of Drogheda, bought
from him, lis. are yet due. And John le Blound did not falsely or
maliciously cause to be sealed the charter of feoffment of said house,
as John de Galeweye complains.
Judgment that John de Galeweye recover lis. and his damages
taxed by the court at 2s. ^d. And John le Blound in mercy. And
John de Galeweye, as to the rest, in mercy for false claim.
William Kesk v. Robert son of Ricard. It is found by the Jury
that Robert maliciously ejected William from one messuage and one
acre in Fynmoy, which Ricard, father of Robert, demised to liim for
term of years, William being elsewhere in the service of Robert, and
under his command at the time of the ejection. And he then mal-
treated William's wife, and basely expelled her with her movables.
And Robert formerly, for fear of the complaint which William, made
to the Justiciar at Trym, promised to make him amends, and William
under the hope of the promise, withdrew without moving the plea
against him. Robert has done nothing therein, but intrudes malic-
iously to aggrieve William.
Judgment that William recover his damages, taxed by the Jury at
20s. And let Robert be connnitted to gaol. Afterwards he made tine.
Hugh de Strangford v. said Robert son of Ricard de Fymoy. It
is found by the Jury that Robert about the feast of S John the Baptist
a. r. xxxii. assaulted (insultavit) Hugh in the chapel of Tyllagh-
douenild with a drawn knife, and would have slain him, but that he
was rescued by those standing round. And afterwards he followed
Hugh, with the knife drawn, to Hugh's house. And when Robert,

Membrane 16 — cont. 1306.
so following Hugh, was wounded by his own knife, Robert drew Hugh
nialiciously into a plea in this county, imputing that he had wounded
him. And after Hugh had sustained many vexations in the plea, it
was found that Robert had wounded himself. And likewise that
Robert, maliciously by day and night, destroys Hugh's wood, and with
his cattle depastures his meadows, and bears him divers other injuries
as he complains.
Judgment that Hugh recover his damages, taxed by the Jury at
half a mark. And let Rolx-rt be committed to gaol. Afterwards he
made fine.
John son of Simon v. said Robert son of Ricard. It is found by
the Jury that Robert maliciously entered the house of John, riding
on a horse, and wuth a staff held in his. hand assaulted John's wife
and her nurse, who were alone, and drove them through the whole
house from place to place, and so followed them that for fear they left
the house and fled through, the town. By which John's wife was so
terrified that for a long time afterwards she was ill. And he did
John divers other grievances as complained.
Judgment that John recover his damages, taxed bv the Jury at 10.s\
And let Robert l^e committed to gaol. Afterwards he made tine.
John son of Ph. Waryng v. Robert son of Ricard. It is found h\ Louth,
the Jury that Avhen Robert was sworn of the fee of John, and hi's
seneschal, he maliciously procured the chief lord of John to implead
him of the dominium of his men. And when John was impleaded by
his lord, he sought aid of Robert, w^ho held himself against him, and
did him many other injuries.
Judgment that John recover Iiis damages taxed by the Jury at half
a mark. And let Robert be committed to gaol.
Afterwards Robert made fine, as well for said trespass, as for three
others, for which he w^as committed to gaol, as appears above, by 605.,
by pledge of Ph. de Repenteny, Gilbert de Repenteny, and John
Ronyl. Of which 40^. are respited upon his conduct, and 20s\ are put
in the estreats. Afterwards the pledges are charged with the other
20s. for Robert, as appears in the pleas of the crown.
Ph. de Neteruill parson of the church of Balvonastik v. Alice de la Meath
Ryuere, Walter de la Ryuere, Will. Calle and others.
It is found by the Jury that Alice and others did not take the
goods of Philip, that is the tithes of hi& church, as complained. Be-
cause they say that Philip was not in possession of tbe tithes ; nor was
his church, after the institution of Philip, seised of tithes arising in
the tenements where he now claims to have tithes. But that the
Prior of Dyuelek is in possession of them.
Judgment: Philip in mercy for false claim.

to Roger do la More and Ismania his wife, lords of that fee. their rent
due thereout; for which Robert {so) and Ismania distrained William
for arrears of that rent, and William by counsel of Ismania wife of
John caused the distraint to be replevied. On account of which Robert
and Ismania sued an assise of Novel disseisin and recovered against
him their damages, 5 marks 10-s.

in mercy. And John, because he counterpleaded, in mercy. And

returns that he attached him by his chattels, to wit, two afers worth
8s. Therefore those chattels are forfeit.
Same v. Andrew le Hopere, Will. Broun, Adam Walkeneye, and
Nich. Arnald, of same plea. It is found by the Jury that said
Eustace and others held a tenement in Tarmefeghyn, of which Robert
was accustomed to receive 6 marks yearly, as dower of hisi wife, by
assignment of one John de Parys, who assigned them to pay the rent
to Robert; and Eustace and the others, at the coming of Robert and
his bailiffs, eloined their cattle, so that they could find no distraint
except corn growing, which he took. Andrew and the others, with
Eustace, carried away the crop, so taken into the hand of Robert,
and did not pay their i-ent, whereof 40s. [are due] to Robert, be-
side debts which he owed to the King which, the Shei-iff of this county
caused to be levied from said rent, because Robert had nothing else
in the county.
Judgment that Robert recover against them 40s. and his damages
taxed by tlie Jury at 206\ And Andrew and the others are committed
to gaol.
And because the Jurors testify that Eustace took away the goods
with the others; and it is said he is sick, for which it was granted
that Nich. de Clnis shoiuld receive his attorney in this plea; and he
would not make aji attorney. He is in heavy mercy.

Justiciar, on Monday after Epiphany a. r. xxxiv.
Will. 0 Kelly complains of the Prior of the house of S. Michael of
Dyuelek, and brother Ricard a canon of same hoiise, that when he
was assigned by the Treasurer of Ireland, as attorney of the King to
sue against tlie Prior, who had. entered certain lands in the Lougher
appropriating them to said house after the Statute ; the Prior and
Ricard, on account of the suit which he made for the King, imprisoned
him, devastated his goods and inflicted other injuries, in contempt of
the King and damage of William.
The Prior and brother Ricard come, and defend. They did not,
by such suit inquiet William, as complained. They acknowledge that
they imprisoned him, as they were entitled to do. For William who
is an hihernicuss of the Prior, was arraigned in' the Prior's courti of
the Lougher, of the detention of a custom called' Tollebolle, of which
detention he was convicted in the court and amerced. The Prior sent
Henry Waryn his Serjeant, in a peaceful manner, as is the custom,
to distrain William for the mercy, when William with armed force
deforced him, and wounded him with an arrow in the leg, from which

wound he lay for a long time in" his bed, so that his life was despaired
of. For which the Prior took William his hihernicus and imprisoned
him, until he found pledges tO' stand to the charge in said court. They
say that at the time that these things were done, William made no
suit for the King, nor ever after. But long before, a writ of the
Exchequer came to the Escheator to enquire if the Prior or his pre-
decessors acquired 80 acres of land in the Lougher, without licence of
the King, after the Statute. By which inquisition it appeared before
John de Swyndon, attorney of Hugh Canoun, sub -escheator, that the
predecessors of the Prior acquired said tenements before the Statute.
On which AVilliam, who sued that writ, told Hugh that the inquisition
was taken in a bad manner by procured jurors. Whereupon Hugh
personally came to those parts, and by oath of good men chosen for
this by Hugh, in whom William, who sued for the King consented,
it appeared that the predecessors of the Prior had entry in the tene-
ments long before said statute was promulgated in this land. And
they pray that this be enquired. William likewise.
The Jurors say that William went to the Exchequer, Dublin, and
informed the Treasurer that the predecessors of the Prior acquired their
tenements of the Lougher aftea" the Statute of the King was enacted
that lands sliould not come into Mortmain. On which the Treasurer
caused a Avrit to be made to the Escheator of Ireland or his locum
tenens that he should enquire the tiaith ; and if he found it so, should
take the lands into the hand of the King. Which writ William
carried to John de Swyndon locum tenens of the Escheator in this
county, who proceeded to make inquisition, as above alleged by the
Prior.
And they say that afterwards William wasi demanded in the
Priors court, of a custom ca-lled Tblleboile, as stated above.
William deforced the Prior's serjeant and rescued an afer
taken for the mercy. And afterwards one of William's company
shot the ?erjeant in the leg with an arrow. For which William was
imprisoned until he found secuxity to submit tO' justice and make
amends for these trespasses. They say that the dissensions were begun
long time after the suit which William made for the King ag-ainst the
Prior. Asked if the Prior aggrieved William on account of the suit
which William made for the King; they say: No. But on that
account it Avas the more jjleasing to the Prior to have matter to
aggrieve him. Even though William should not have made that suit,
yet the Pi-ior w^ould have done to W^illiam what he did, as well because
he pleaded against the Prior concerning the custom called Tollebolle
as for deforcement and wounding of the serjeant, and other dissen-
sions between them ; because William was very rebellious against the
Prior.
Afterwards William does not prosecute. Therefore he and his pledges
to prosecute in mercy. And the Prior and brother Ricard sine die.
Saving the right of the King if he will to question them another time.
No pledges of William because he sued for the King and himself.
Meath. Ric. de Wasshebourn and Hugh de Rath complain that whereas
they are resident in this county, but Ricard is valet of the hospice of
the Bishop of Meath, and Hugh valet of the hospice, of Ric. de Tuyt ;
the Sheriff distrains them to take the oath of office of Coroner in the
Cross of Meath, and to be admitted to that office.
The, Sheriff tpiestioned of this, says that Bertram de Cardyngton
coroner, brought to hini a writ of the King to remove him, Bertram,
83 EDWARD I. 175
Membrane 17 — cont. 1306.
and to elect and constitute another in his place. On which he pro-
ceeded to make election of coroner. And the conuiiunity of the Cross
elected said Ricard and Hugh to serve by turn {sub ulternacwne).
And because it appears to- the Court that Ricard and Hugh, for said
cause and others, were not properly elected, the Community is told to
elect a sufficient coroner at their peril. Who elected said Bertram.
Therefore let him be admitted to the office. And he takes the oath
in court here.
Afterwards Bertram was asked, by whose suit he had the writ that
he should be removed from the office. He says by one John de
Ideshale a clerk of the Exchequer Dublin, who sued the writ for 20[.s\]
which he promised him for suing it, of which he paid him 9.s. Asked
who was sheriff he says, Ririch son of ... • Asked who, after
his removal, was elected to the office, he says that two werie elected,
Roger de Pren and Ric. le Blak, whom the Sheriff, for bribe received
from them, would not [put] in the office.
x^nd said Roger and Ricard present are asked if tuey were elected.
They say, Yes; but they gave so much to the Sheriff", to wit, Roger
20s. and Ricard one mark, that the Sheriff' granted to each of them
that the}- should not serve in said office. Afterwards the Sheriff
doubting that Roger would show this to the Treasurer and barons
who came to the parts of Drogheda. returned one mark of said 10s.

plain that, when they were riding on the King's highway (rec/ia strata)
iDetween the bridge of Kenuagli and the manor of Nicholasi de
Nettreuill their father, on the feast of S. Bartholomew last, there
came there Stephen de Exon', John le Petyt, Adam de* Exon', and Ph.
Burnel, with Ric. Hasard, Simon Bray and others unknown, and
assaulted and wounded them, to their damage of 200/.
And likewise said Nicholas complains that when Adam son of
Magowycus, William son of Ineges, and Roger son of Lewryn, his
hibertrici, werei in the company of said Luke and the others, on same
day and place, Stephen and the others assaulted and wounded his
hibernici, tO' his damage of 100/.
Stephen, John, Adam and Philip defend. They did no trespass.
But they acknowledge that whereas Doneghuth Orailly, a faithful
man of Theobald de Verdun, had cattle feeding on lands of Theobald,
Luke and the others, with horses equipped and a multitude of
arined men, took the! cattle and drove thean almost to the borders of
this county. And hue and cry having been raised Stephen and the
others with men of peace of those parts, followed them and rescued the
cattle from them, as it was lawful for them to do withouti any injury
or trespass. .
Luke and the others say that Duneglintli, by his men, stole from
Niclinlas many of his cattle, and those of his betaghs. Nicholas sued
in this county against him, who did not appear. And when by judg-
ment of the county court, by his default, it proceeded to outlawry

against Doneghuth ; he by his friends procured that the Justiciar,
for good of the peace, suspended the execution of the outlawry, and
made a commission to Ric. de Exon' and Thomas de Snyterby to
hear and determine the trespass. Before whom Dunoghuth made fine
with Nicholas, by 5 marks, for payment of which at a term assigned,
as well Doneghuth as Gilpatrik McMalioun, under whom Doneghuth
then resided, granted that they might be forced to give pledges
(devadiarentuf), by all modes by which they and their men could be,
until satisfaction be made, except that the body of Gilpatrik be not
taken. And because Doneghuth failed to make payment, Nicholas
sent Luke and the others to take a pledge of Doneghuth. Who finding
Doneghuth 's cattle, took and had them driven away with them, as
was lawful for them to do, according to the form of the composition ;
until Stephen and the others with a great force attacked them, as
complained, and rescued the cattle. And they pray that this be
enquired. And Stephen likewise. Therefore let the trvith be en-
quired by the country.
The Jurors say that a thief came to Nicholas' manor of Doueth,
and there stole about 60 cows, and drove them to Doneghuth, who then
was under the avowry of Gilpatrik McMahoun, a man of Theobald de
Verdun. And Nicholas learning this, made suit against Doneghuth
to whom the cows came, up to outlawry. And because it Avas related
to the Justiciar that Doneghuth was^ wont to repressi (^gravare) the
felons of his parts, for the good of the peace, the Justiciar assigned
Ric. de Exon' etc. {fts in the statement of Lul;e). And afterwards
Nicholas to whom 20.:?. of the fine were in arrear, hearing that Doneg-
huth was in the land of Stephen, sent Luke and the others with horses
equipped, to take a pledge for the debt. Who coming to Stephen's
land found a shepherd keeping cows in his pasture, of whom they
asked whose the cows were; who answered that they were Doneghuth's.
And they took the cows and drove them to the manor of Nicholas,
of Doueth. And when they were driven a little way from the shep-
herd, who for fear of them dared not before cry out, he raised hue
and cry. On which Stephen, who was near, mounted his horse,
without arms, and followed them. And when he came to them, he
asked that they should deliver him the cattle, and he would under-
take that there should be done to Nicholas as justice iiiight require,
for said cattle. And Luke answered that he could not do this without
Nicholas hiai lord; and he asked him to come with him to his lord.
And when Stephen saw that he gained nothing, but that he was
answered by rough words, he returned, and came to the house of
John Petyt, who would have gone out to the hue unarmed, but Stephen
forbad him, because Luke and the others were well armed and on
equipped horses. And so Stephen took part of John'si arms, and
so they armed themselves, and with the others named and their men,
and others Avho came to the hue, followed Luke and' thof others, and
approached them about the distance of a league from the manor of
Nicholas. And they sent their footmen to go before the cows to lead
them back. So that immediately there was a conflict between the
footmen of Luke, who drove the cows, and them. Luke looking back
rode towards tliem and struck one of tlio footmen who came with
Stephen, with a spear, under the arm ; so that tlie spear passed
through the middle of the footman's tunic without wounding him.
But one of his conq^any, being his kinsman, thinking that he was
struck through the body, went to Luke and struck him in the head on

his iron headpiece, so that the headpiece was thrown to the ground.
And John le Petyt seeing this doubting lest greater evil should happen
approached Luke, who so had his head uncovered, and laid hands on
him to hold him. On which Luke drew a dagger (anelacium) to free
himself, from John's hands. At which some of John's men came, and
seeing Luke, with his dagger drawn, and John, struggling together,
struck Luke with a spear in the arm and gave him a severe wound,
which gj'ieved John, who let him go as soon as he saw that he was
wounded. And so the parties withdrew from one another, Stephen
and John bringing home the cows with them, except four cows which
remained in ditches near, of which two were so wearied by the driving
and so weak froW it, that they could scarcely be driven to the manor
of Nicholas. And when Nicholas saw that they could not live, he
had them killed and salted. Ho however liad them first valued,
understanding that if they perished it would be to his damage, because
they fell to him for part payment of the debt against Doneghugh.
And the other two cows yet remain with Nicholas. And they say that
in the conflict, James, Thomas, and William were struck, but none of
them wounded except Luke. But certain of the footmen on each side
were wounded.

Judgment that William during liis term be charged with said
OS. id.; and that the betaghs be discharged thereof, and that they
recover against him 16s. which they paid for three years, from the
time when Ralph's land came to the hand of the King. And William
in mercy.
The Jurors, asked how much the betaghs render for each acre,
and how much each acre is worth ; say that they render for each acre
16^/. and they could well at present render 18^/., because Emma,
widow of John de Kent, takes iSr/. for each acre of her land of
Molyneston. which is of ecjual goodnes.sj with the lands which the
betaghs hold.
Agnes Scor v. Ric. Hamas. It is found by the jury that Ricard Louth,
did not rape Agnes as she complained; but that he beat and ill-treated
her, because she alleged that he raped her. Judgment that Agnes
recover lier damages, taxed by the jury at half a mark. And Ricard
committed to gaol.
Petition was heard of Peter, son of Peter le Petit deceased, showing Louth,
that whereas Peter, the father, whose heir he; is, died seised of tene-
ments in Droghstrohill, and Peter the son, in the King's court before
the Treasurer and barons of the Exchequer Dublin,, proved his age,
but has not yet obtained seisin, enquiry be proceeded with as to the
truth of the matter.
And the jurors say that one Matilda Malet, who held the tenements
in fee, (to wit, one mill worth yearly 40s., half of two carucates of
land which render 8d. yearly, half of seven acres which render yearly
7.S., and one half of one carucate in Droghstohill which ]-enders yearly
2 marks,) enfeoffed Peter le Petit the father, subject to this agreement
between them, that Peter (whose concubine Matilda was, and by whom
she wasi pregnant) should enfeoff the offspring Avhich she had in her
womb, of said tenement. She afterwards bore a son who is called
WilKam. After Matilda died, Peter held the tenement until William
his son completed the age of three years, and then enfeoffed him, who
with the guardian given to him, to wit, Simon Colyn clerk, held
himself in seisin for three days and three nights, without receiving any
profit. And after the three days Peter re-entered and took toll from
the mill ; which was taken under the name of AVilliam. And he main-
tained himself in the tenements and died in seisin.
Asked as to the age of Peter son of Peter, they say that in the
feast of the Conversion of S. Paul next he will be 24 years of age.
Isabella, widow of Roger Louel appears against Will. Bernard, of

cattle for 20s. in arrear of the rent before his term; for which he
came to Simon asking him to acquit him. Who answered that no
rent was due to Milo, and he enjoined him to have his cattle replevied
in the county court by the Sheriff, and that he would find the cost
of the plea and a pleader (narrator). And when Elyas had so done,
the day of the county court coming, he had no^ counsel nor pleader,
on account of which he made default; by which Milo recovered the
return of the cattle and Elias was amerced at 4s.
And again, by command of Simon, he had the cattle replevied
under like hope of aid promised by Simon. Who gave him no aid.

extent of 100s. And he prays remedy.

him for the damage which he sustained by one crannoc of wheat and
ISd. And he prays judgment.
Elyas says he never satisfied him for his damages. He acknow-
ledges that he had the crannoc of wheat and ISd. for a house of the

from the lands and chattels of John. The Sheriff returns that John
has nothing in his bailiwic from which the money can be levied.
Geoffrey comes not and the Sheriff" was conmianded to attach him to

put themselves, of a plea of trespass ; that whereas Maurice by return
of a writ directed to the Sheriff of this county, had in command to
levy 17^ marks of the lands and chattels of John le Taillour to the use
of Master Ralph, Maurice took into the King's hand four stacks of
corn of John le Taillour, of which John, after the taking,
knowingly caused two to be threshed. And because John
owed to Ric. Gernoun 106s. and more of the farm of
a tenement, which he held of Ricard, which farm John
rendered to Ricard for fear of the demand of Ralph ; Ricard
caused the corn in the fields to be attaclied for said arrears before
the corn was taken into the hand of the King; nor did he permit
Ricard to work at the' corn until it was agreed between them that John
should have it collected and stacked in Ricard's tenement ; and should
cause it to be threshed and sold in detachments and render the money
arising- to Ricard, until he satisfy thei debt to him; and of the rest
he should do his will. John caused the corn to be stacked and
made of it four stacks, which Maurice took into the hand of the King,
by word only, without doing anything further. Afterwards John,
knowing this, caused two of the stacks to be threshed, and expended
them without making any paj'ment to Ricard. Ricard understand-
ing this, took the remaining two stacks under the agreement made

King, who are received by those felons who are in John's land, he
knowing them to be felons ; Nicholas took a [prey] in John's land.
John defamed Nicholas saying 23ublicly that Nicholas robbed faithful
hihernici of John; and told the Earl of Ulster that Nicholas robbed
faithful hihernici of the Earl, in conteimpt of the Earl, by which the
Earl was moved beyond measure against Nicholas, and had ill will
against him ; to his damage of 200^.
And John comes, and cannot deny that he said this to the Earl,

Heath. Theobald de Verdun senior, Roger le Mouner, and Will, de Stokes,
in mercy for many defaults.
Same Theobald, Roger and William, were attached to answer the
Mayor and community of the town of Drogheda on the side of Uriel,
of a plea wherefore: when tha men and tenants of the King's demesne
lands in Ireland ought to he quit of the taking of toll throughout the
whole said land, Theobald, by said Roger and William, his bailiffs,
distrained the Mayor and community and their men, to pay toll, in
his market of Dyuelek, to their heavy damagie, and against the custom
hitherto enjoyed by the men of the King's demesne lands.
And they complain that' whereas the men and tenants of the King's
demesne lands in this land, ought to be quit from taking of toll as
contained in the writ, Theobald and the others distrained the Mayor
and community and their men. to pay toll in his market, of Deuelek,
toi wit, Peter le Feuere, Walter de la More and many others of same
town, taking from said Peter 12d., and from Walter 12i^/. for said
toll. And therefore they say they have damage to 100/. And they
bring their suit.
Theobald, by his attorney, and the others come. Theobald says
that the toll is a. profit belonging to his manor of Dyuelek. And he says
that Walter de Lacy his great great grandfather, whose heir he is,
was seised of said manor and other tenements; and he died in seisin,
taking such toll. After whose death, the manor was assigned to
Margery, daughter of Gilbert de Lacy, cousin and one of the heirs of
Walter, mother of said Theol^ald, Avho was accustomed to take such
toll in said town, and died in seisin. After whose death, said Theo-
bald entered said manor, and was hitherto in seisin taking said toll
in the town, by his men of same town, without interruption. Whereof
he says he ought not to answer here without Roger son of Edmund de
Mortuo Mari, and Johanna his wife, cousin and the other heir of
Walter. Therefore the Sheriff of Dublin is commanded to summon
Roger and Johanna, at the manor of Tryni, which Geoffrey de Geneuill
holds by the law of England, of the inheritance of said Johanna, to
answer the Mayor and community Avith Theobald.

Who say that it is not to the damage of the King or others, if the
King should grant such licence, except only to the damage of the
Friars Minor, the site of whose houset adjoins the river, and to whom
it is granted "ad filum aque " ; who by this wovild be impeded in
enlarging ttieir site ad filum aque. And likewise tct the hurt of the
Friars in this, that if the quay be constructed, their quiet AvoiUd be
interrujited by mariners. And they say that the! quay ought to be of
the length of 20 perches and of the breadth of 14 feet. And that
the construction of the quay and tower would be to the advantage of
the King, and the defence of the town ; because, by this, ships could
more safely and better be received, and more' freely come there with
merchandise. And in time of war or disturbance, the town would bo
much protected by the tower and quay.

John Boscher of Clomken come not. And Thomas was attached by
Walter and David Eode ; therefore they in mercy. John Bosher, the
Sheriff returns, is not found, but is distrained by two afers, value one

of Clomken, the Sheriff' returns that he conmianded Roger de la Hyde,
Serjeant of the cross of Ferns, who did nothing. And because the
Sheriff did not his office in this part fully, as appears by his return,
therefore he is in heavy mercy.
And Adam le Joeuen and Roger Huscard come. And being de-

And the Sheriff returns that goods before taken by another writ

Thomas has no other goods except his lands, because he is not suffi-

William Wogan ; assignees of same; and the residue for Thomas
Broun, which, in this court at Dublin, by judgment, he recovered
against William son of William, for damages for trespass found by a
jury between them at Clonmel. And whereof the Sheriff returned to
the Justiciar that Walter Maunsel, the King's chief serjeant of fee in
this county, answered him that William son of William took the goods
before presented and expended them against the will of the Serjeants ;
nor did he answer anything of the residue of the debt. The Sheriff' also
was commanded to attach William son of William and have him to
answer for contempt and trespass. He was also to attach Walter
Maunsel and have him to answer because the King's- precept is not
executed; and to show wherefore his bailiffship ought not to bei for-
feited, on account of divers false answers made to the Sheriff" tol writs
for levying money from William son of William. And let the Sheriff
be here to hear his judgment because the precept before directed is
not executed.
And the Sheriff now returns that he commanded Walter Maunsel,
chief serjeant, under whom John le Joeuen is serjeant of Elyogrid, in
whose bailiwic William son of William dwells. Of whom he answers
only that he is mainprised to be before the Justices itinerant from day
to day; and that Walter Maunsel is mainprised by Luke son of John,

and Stephen Burdoun, who now have him not,; therefore they in
mercy. And because the Sheriff has not executed the Avrit; nor does
the court hold him excused in that he says that the serjeanti has not
done what was commanded him ; therefore the Sheriff, to wit, John
Rys, in mercy. And the Sheriff is commanded as before to levy the
money. And he is to attach William son of William and have him to
answer. Also to attach Walter Maunsel and have him\ to answer at
the tliree weeks of Easter.
Afterwards at that day. the Sheriff retu.riied that the goods of
William son of William are in a strong march at Kenwath in the
cantred of Elicarwill, where no serjeant dare go to distrain him or
levy the debt, by presentment of John lo Skyrmysshour, attorney of
the Chief Serjeant. And on this Will de Boitrn, who sues for the
King and for himself , presents himself against William son of William
and Walter Maunsell. And the}- come not. And the Sheriff returns
that William was attached by Robert son of Henry le Blount, John son
of Thomas le Blound, Thomas Gillot, andi Andrew son of John; and
Walter, by Luke son of John, Stephen Bourdoun, Reginald the Ser-
jeant, and John Virly. Therefore tliey in mercy. And because it is
testified in court that William has lands and chattels sufficient, the
Sheriff was commanded as before to levy ; and to make return in the
octaves of Holy Trinity; and to attach William and Walter. And
because tiie Slierif? caimoi be -excused by such answer of the serjeant,
and so he has not executed the precept; therefore he is in mercy.
Afterwards at that day, the Sheriff returned that of the g-oods of
William son of William there is taken one horse of the value of IOO.9.,
which is in custodv of the Sheriff because lie has not found buyers ;
nor has lie other goods except those in the March in Elycarewill, where
no serjeant dare do his office, on account of the Irish of Slefblame.
As to William son of William and Walter Maunsell, William de
Burne api^ears against them: and they come not. And the Sheriff
returns that William was attached by Hugh de Bristoll and Hugh
Maunsell ; and Walter by Reginald de Kylconill and Luke son of
John. Therefore they in mercy: and these mercies are not put in the
estreats here, but in th© rolls of pleas of the! term of S., John next.
And because the Sheriff cannot be excused by the default of such Ser-
jeants ; and likewise because he took insufficient mainprise of William
son of William, having respect to the trespass ; and so it apj^ears that
he did not execute the precept; therefore, he is in heavy mercy.
Afterwards on Friday the feast of S. Mary Magdalen at Cassell, the
Sheriff in court acknowledges that the liorse was appraised at 10
marks. Therefore at the instance' of Will, de Burn, the Sheriff was
commanded according to the form of the Statute to deliver the horse
to the appraisers; and of their lands and chattels to levy 10 marks
and pay 100s. to William de Burn and his fellows. And to make
return in the octaves of the Assumption.
And the Sheriff' then returned that he delivered the horse to the
appraisers ; and he took of their goods the crop of 20 acres sown with
wheat, value each 40f/, and of 40 acres of oats, value each iOd., for
which lie has not found buyers. Therefore he is commanded, of those,
as of other lands and cha«ttels of the ajDpraisers, to levy the money.

And the Sheriff now returns that he commanded Walter Maun[sel]
chief Serjeant of fee in this county, under whom William le Bret is
Serjeant of Moytalyn, who answers that of the goods of John and
Dufcouly, is taken the crop of 15 acres sown with wheat, value each
acre 40f/., and it is delivered to John, Beysam and Gilbert Gall, to

And because the Sheriff has not duly made execution of the precept,
in that he returned 15 acres of wheat to be taken, whereas there is no
acre except of land, moor or the like. And likewise in that he returned
that by the hands of his subserjeants there were taken two stacks,
Avithout returning if it be corn or not. And likewise in that he
returned that Hugh Maunsel and William son of William are not
distrainable, when it appears to the court that William is a free-
tenant in the county. So that the court does not hold this return to
be an answer but an evasion. Therefore the Sheriff, John Rys, in
heavy mercy. And he is again commanded to levy.
Afterwards at the three weeks of Eastei', the Sheriff returns that John
son. of Reymund, Dufcouly, and Hugh, have nothing from which the
money can be levied. William son of Williain has no goods except those
in a strong march iu Elycarwyll where no serjeant dare go to distrain,
by presentment of John le Skirmysshur attorrey of the chief serjeant.
And Odo son of William, and Anastasia have nothing. And because
formerly the Sheriff returned that lie took goods of John and Dufcouly,
and of Anastasia, of which at present he answers nothing; therefore
he is in heavy mercy. And he is commanded, as before, to levy.
Afterwards the mercies are pardoned by the Justiciar.

The Prior of Down {de Duno) had a day by adjournment, of a plea Dublin,
wherefore whereas he holds the priory and its temiwralities of the Ulster.
King in capite, he caused himself to be elected prior, the royal licence
not being asked or obtained. And likewise to answer to the King for
the temporal issues of the priory for thirty years past, to wit, from
the death of his fourth predecessor until now, because he and his two
next predecessors caused themselves to be made priors, and< occupied
the temporalities, without licence, in prejudice of the King, and
against his crown and dignity.
And the Prior by his attorney now comes and says that he is not
bound to answer the King herein, because he is not on this drawn
into judgment according to the law of the land, by summons; but

when lie came to sue, and to show for the King, against the Earl of
Ulster, who claims to have dorniniu?n of the temporalities, and certain
services in the temporalities, which the King ought to have, and not
the Earl ; also beca^use in the action against the Prior it appeared
that the present Prior and his two next predecessors were elected
without the royal licence being sought or obtained ; by which it appears
that the Prior found his church seised of such liberty, that the convent
of that pi'iory, to wit, the house of S. Patrick of Down, after the
death of its prior, may elect to the priorship, without seeking or
obtaining the royal licence. Wherefore he prays judgment if he
ought to answer the King without Avrit, And if the court adjudge
that he ought to answer further, then saving to himself said cause
(racio) he says that the Bishop of Down is to him as an abbot, without
whom the prior or his convent can do nothing, as to perpetuity, nor
the Bishop, as to the lands of the bishopric, without assent of the
convent. And he prays that the Bishop come to answer with him.
And he is told to answer further. And the Prior says that it is
not customary that the convent of a priory should seek licence to
elect, or that the King in time of such vacancy should have custody.
But the licence to elect is sought only from the Bishop, as appeafrs( in
the priories of Norwich, Durham, and other such priories to which the
election of bishops belongs. Such royal licence is sought only in case
where the King or his progenitors were in seisin. Wherefore as it
cannot be shown for the King that he or his predecessors were ever
accustomed to have custody of the priorj-, except in case when the
priory was vacant in the time when the bishojiric was vacant, and
then the King had custody of the priory by reason of the bishopric
only ; he prays that he or his convent be not compelled to do as he
is demanded. And if the Court adjudge that it be necessary that
he answer further, then he says he is ready to aver as the Court ad-
judge, that the King or his progenitors never were in seisin of hav-
ing custody in the priory, except as aforesaid. Therefore the Sheriff
is commanded to have a jury at the three weeks of Easter. And in
the meantime let the rolls and memoranda of the Exchequer be
searched.
Afterwards at that day, the Prior, by his attorney, came. And at
the suit of the Prior, the rolls and memoranda of the Exchequer having
been searched, nothing is found by which it can be shown that the
King or his progenitors ever had any seisin thereof. Therefore it is
adjudged that the Prior go •■??'?? ^ die, saving the riglit of the King, if
at another time he will speak.

The Sheriff was commanded, of the lands and chattels of Roger de

Carru, of a plea wherefore when Maurice with men at arms, came by
precept of the King towards Scotland, in aid of the King's war there,
and with his men was lodged at the Coumbe beside Dublin, in the
house of mafiter David de Barton, William and the others, together
with Gregory Sampson, now dead, and Ralph le Flemeng, shoemaker,
attacked Maurice and his men, broke the house and slew some of his
men, and took his goods to the value of 100/ to his damage, and
against the peace.
They come, and say that they are not bound to answer this writ.
Because it errs in form in this, that he complains that William Callan
and the others broke the house of Master David, of which) trespass, if
done, action would lie for Master David', and not for Maurice.
Likewise whereas it is contained in the writ that Maurice complains
that they slew certain of Maurice's men, a<ction does not lie for
Maurice for such slaying, unless the men were his hihernici, and he
does not say this in the writ. And they pray judgment.
And Maurice by his attorney prays licence to withdraw from his
writ. And he has it.

goods sufficient. And the Sheriff then returned that he sent precept
to the Mayor and bailift's of the city of Dublin, who answei'ed that
Adam de Cromelyn has not lands and chattels within the city from
which the money can be levied, but only a yearly rent from John de
Capeles of 20s., of which 10.'?. ought to be paid at the feast of S.

Dublin. Assise of Morb d'ancestor, as ahove.
Ralph comes and says as above, and puts himself on the assise.
Which says that Ralph, brother of Michael, was formerly seised
of said messuage and land in demesne as of fee. And after-
wards he enfeoffed Michael, to hold to him and his heirs for ever.
So that Michael should find for Ralpli his necessaries for his life,
and 20s. yearly for his life. When Michael was: very sick, one
Tliomas' de Rathlawe came to him asking him what he would do
for Ralph his brother, if he should die, when Ralph would be a
pauper and have nothing to live on, if Michael's heir after his
death shall have the messuage and land as his inheritance. Michael
answered that he should hold the messuage and land for his whole
life. Afterwards Thomas de Rathlawe again came to Michael and
counselled him to grant to Ralph his brother said messuage and
land, lest he should be made iv beggar after Michael's death.
Michael then gave to Ralph said messuage and land, until
Michael's heir should be in such state that he could find for Ralph
his necessaries, as Michael wasi accustomed to do. And Ralph
entered the premises and caused part of the land to be ploughed
and sown, Michael still living.
And because the jurors say that Michael so gave the premises to
Ralph conditionally, it is adjudged that Michael died seised in
his demesne as of fee, and that Thomas should recover his seisin,
with his damages taxed by the assise at one mark. And Ralph
in mercy for unjust detention.
And at the suit of Ralph complaining that in the record is manifest
error, the Sheriff was commanded to summon Cecilia,, daughter and
heiress of Thomas de Bodenham, to hear the record. She comes not.
She was summoned by Thomas le Rous, Adam le Rous, Mich, de
P . . ton, and Thomas RaAve. Therefore let it proceed by her
default.
And Ralph complains that the Justices erred in that when the assise
remained to be taken before them, for want of jurors, from the quin-
zaine of S. Martin to the quinzaine of S. Hilary. At which day an
assise of Novel disseisin between Thomas do Bodenham and Ralph de
Bodenham remained to be taken to the quinzaine of Easter; no
mention being made in said term of S. Hilary, of said assise of Mort
d'ancestor. And so that plea then was sine die. The Justices pro-

ceeded to take said assise in the quinzaine of Easter, and so they
took said assise without warrant, as they had no writ to revive the
assise. And he prays that the error be corrected and justice done
him.
And because having inspected the record, it appears thati the plea
remained sine die, from the quinzaine of S. Hilary a. r. xxiv. And
the Justices nevertheless at the quinzaine of Easter proceeded to the
taking of the assise without a new warrant, and so erred ; therefore
it is adjudged that the record be annulled and revoked, and the judg-
ment rendered, had for nought. And that Raliah have his' seisin as
lie had on the day when the error intervened. And that he have
again the mercy which he paid, and the damages. And because Ralph
acknowledges tlaat no execution was yet made of the judgment ; there-
fore nothing as to livery of seisin, or mercy of Cecilia.
The Sheriff was commanded, of the lands and chattels of John le Waterford.

formerly he made default after he was summoned. So that the
Sheriff of Kildare was commanded to take into the King's hand,
of the land of John Fanyn, to the value ; to wit, to the value of
U. 7s. id. yearly. And the Sheriff returns that John Fanyn has
nothing in fee in oo. Kildare, by which the value contained in
the writ could be taken ; because what he has, he holds for term
of life; and he smnmoned John Fanyn to be here to answer.
Wherefore it is adjudged that Jordan and Imania recover their
seisin. And John Fanyn in mercy for unjust detention. And
let John Fanyn make to the value to Philip ; and Philip to
John Christofre. And the premises are extended as above.
And the Sheriff is commanded to have a jury to enquire as to

Afterwards comes the Jury, which says that Jordan and Imania
sustained damage by Philip to 102 marks and bj' John 18 marks,
by said occasion. Therefore the Sheriff is commanded, of the
goods of Philip and John, to levy said sums, and have it in the

Afterwards comes David lo Mazyner and makes claim that John
Fanyn has no right in the manor of Carnalewy, in co. Kildare,

Justices erred in this, that when the Sheriff of Kildare was commanded,
that by default of John which he was said to have made before said
justices in the quinzaine of S. Hilary a. r. xxvi., hd should take of
the land of John to the value of the premises ; and should notify the
day of taking to the Justicesi on the morro^V of the Ascension ; and
should summon John to be there to answer Philip : the Sheriff returne<l
to the Justices in the three weeks of Easter, thati John Fanyn had )iot
lands in his bailiwic which he could take for said value, because the
land which he had, h© held for term of life only; and likewise he
returned that he wasi summoned: the Justices adjudged that Jordan
and Imania should recover against John Cristofre, the premises, and
John against Philip to the value; and Philip against John Fanyn.
And so they proceeded to judgment before the value of the lands of
John Fanyn might be taken into the King's hand, by default of
John Fanyn. Likewise he says that tha Justices erred in rendering
judgment for damages when they adjudged that Jordan and Imania
should recover damages against John Fanyn, when they should have
adjudged that they should recover them against John Cristofre against
whom, and from whose seisin, they recovered the tenements. And
John Cristofre his damages against Philip, and so step by step. And
they pray that the error be corrected and justice done them.
And Jordan, Philip, and Jordan say that John Fanyn ought not to
be admitted to say anything against the record and judgment, because
he, for himself and his heirs, ratified the record and judgment, and
livery of seisin of the tenements to Jordan and Imania, of the tene-
ments demanded against John Cristofre, andj to John Cristofre of the
tenements of Ph. Cristofre, and to Philip of the lands of John Fanyn
to the value. And he granted that said record, judgment, and livery
of seisin, be ratified for him and his heirs for ever. And they pray
judgment, if he ought to l3e admitted to say anything against his own
deed, and they proffer letters patent under the name of John Fanyn :
John Fanyn to all. Whereas Jordan de Exou' and Imania his wife
lately demanded by writ De avo against John Cristofre, one messuage
94 acres of land and 6 a. meadow in Kilrothan, by death of John
Deiirous, grandfather of Imauia; and John Cristofre called to
warranty sir Ph. Cristofre, who called further said John Fanyn,
who appeared, and after appearance made default; by which it was
adjudged that Jordan and Imania should recover seisin of the
premises against John Cristofre; and he, to the value, of Sir Ph.
Cristofre; and that Sir Ph. recover, to the value, of me, John Fanyn.
By which judgment, at the suit of Sir Philip, the Sheriff of Kildare
made him an extent of my lands in Carnalewy to the value of said
premises, and delivered to Sir Philip as it was before adjudged in the
King's court in the Bench, Dublin. Which judgment and livery I
grant for me and my heirs may be firm and stable for ever. Besides
I grant and confirm to Jordan and Imania and their heirs said mes-

as to the tenements, yet the error as to damages be corrected and

And Jordan, Philip and Jordan say that as John Faiiyn ratified
the judgment as to the tenements, and likewise the whole record of the

of damages.
Afterwards in the quinzaine of S. John Baptist, at Dublin, came

died; therefore the plea is sine die.
Duiihn. The Sheriff was commanded, of the lands and chattels of Reymund
Lercedekne, to levy 2 maa-ks for Will, de Bourn, of lOZ. which Adam
de Rupe assigned to William, of 40/. which Johanna de Valence
assigned to Adan). of 100/. which Reymund acknowledged that he owed
her.
And the Sheriff returned that he commanded the Seneschal of the
liberty of Kilkenny, who answers that keepers are assigned of the
profits of Reymund's mills, and to sell them for the debt. Nor has he
other goods in the liberty, except his rent, of which nothing can be
levied of past terms. Therefore the Slieriff is commanded to levy
from the profits of the mills.
Diiblin. Tho Sheriff was commanded, of the lands and chattels of Walter
Maunsell of Dungaruan, to levy 40s. for Will, de Bourn and his fellow
clerks, assignees of Robert de la Lyserne, which Robert recovered
against him in court before Edm. le Botiller, late custos, at Kilkenny.
And the Sheriff returned that he commanded the seneschal of the
liberty of Kilkenny, who answers : The lands and goods Avhich
Walter Maunsel has, and which he gave to his! son, were taken, into
the hand of the King before the coming of this writ, for his debts.
So that nothing can be levied at present. Therefore the Sheriff is
commanded to levy all the debts which Walter owes to the King, and
pay them into the Exchequer, Dublin. And of the residue, if any,
to levy the 40<t. for William: and to make return at the tliree weeks
of Easter.

Teste W. de Carleton, at Westminster, 15 Oct. a. r. xxxiii.
By ijretext of which writ the Sheriff of Dublin was commanded as Dublin,
before to levy. And the Sheriff now returns that it was commanded
to the Seneschal of Weysford, who answers that James de Ketyng has
no other goods than those before taken, of which sale was proclaimed,
and no buyers found ; because the other goods which he had before the
coming of this writ, were taken into the hand of the King, for debts
in which he is bound to the King; except iOs. of rent of Johanna,
daughter of Thomas, whom James enfeoffed of all his lands in said
county. And the 4:0s. are inhibited, on behalf of the King, in the
hand of John Martle, Henry Ketyng, Thomas Rothan, and Will.
Ketyng, tenants of Johanna, of said rent. John son of Thomas and
the others have nothing in co. Dublin. And because it is testified in
court that the alienation which James made to Johanna was after
a. r. XX., and that in that year James had sufficient in the liberty,
the Sheriff was commanded not to omit, on account of the liberty, as
well of the goods already taken as of all others which a. r. xx. belonged
to James and the others, to whosesoever hands they may ha.ve come, to
levy 100?. for Agnes, as above; and to make return on the Monday
after Mid Lent. And the Sheriff then returned that of the goods
taken to the value of il. the Seneschal levied il., which he paid in
court to the attorney of Agnes. That of the 40s. rent, nothing is
levied because it appears that they were not taken into the King's
hand; but there are to be levied only 25s. 9d. at Easter, which are
taken into the King's hand of James' lands and chattels. And there
are taken of his lands and chattels 24 acres of wheat value 3s. an
acre, 12 a. of oats (2s. an acre), 18 oxen (40r/. each),' 3 afers (iOd.
each), 3 cows (iOd. each), 60 sheep (8d. each), 80 hoggets (id. each).
And they are given to John Marcley, Thomas Rothan, William le
Flemeng', and Henry le Flemeng to guard, because no one in those
parts would buy said goods. John son of Thomas, and the others
have nothing iii the liberty or elsewhere in co. Dublin. Afterwards
at the instance of the attorney of Agnes, the Sheriff was commanded
as before. ... . ,
The Sheriff of Waterford was commanded, that, of Ss. rent which "aterioui.
he lately took, as of all other goods of James and the others, he should
lew 40i^. for Agnes, as above. And the Sheriff returned that James
has no other goods ; and that John and the others have nothing. And
it is testified in court that James has sufficient. Therefore at the
instance of the attorney he is again commanded to levy.
The Sheriff of Cork was commanded that, of the goods andi lands <^"i"l^'
which were of James and the others, he should levy 40^, as above.
And the Sheriff returned that no one of tliose contained in said writ

has anything in liis county, except James Ketyng, who has only one
carucate of kind waste. And at the instance of said attorneys alleg-
ing that James has sufficient, to wit, 4:01. of land of the lands of
Johanna, widow of Ph. de Barry, of the issues of which James dis-
poses at his Avill. And that Jolin son of Thomas, and the others
likewise have sufficient: the Sheriff is commanded as before, to levy.
Keny. The Sheriff of Kery was commanded, of the goods and lands which
were of James and the others, to levy 1.33^. 6s. lid. for Agnes, as
above. And the Sheriff did nothing, nor did he send the Avrit. And
it appears to the Court that the Sheriff, to wit. Ph. de Vaille, received
the writ in sufficient time, as he testified by a bill signed with his seal
which the said attorneys proffer. Therefore he in lieavy mercy.
(J'outinued Me/nbrane 31.)
And he is, as 1>efore, commanded to levy, and to make return at the
Monday after Mid Lent. At w^hich day he returned that John son of
Thomas is distrained by 60 acres of wheat, value 2s. the acre, and
20 a. of oats (16<:7. the acre), for which he has not yet found buyers.
And because the Sheriff' has not fully executed the precept, he in
mercy. James and the others have nothing". And at thei instance of
said attorneys, alleging that John son of Thomas has goods and rents
sufficient: and that James and the others have sufficient; the Sheriff,
as before, is commanded to levy.
Limerick. The Sheriff' of Lynier' Avas commanded, of the goods of Jolin son of
Thomas which he took into the hand of the King, as appears by
return made before Edm. le Botiller late custos, on Monday after Mid
Lent last, a. r. xxxiii., as of all other goods and lands of John and
the others as above, to levy 200?. as above. He was commanded also
to attach Walter Maunsel, chief serjeant in his county, to answer
because the former precept was not executed. And the Sheriff now
returns that 16 oxen and 16 afers before taken are yet in custody of
the King, for buyers are not yet found. And that John son of
Thomas has not more goods in the county, except those before taken.
And that James de Ketyng has not in the county sufficient for the debts
in which he is bound to the King. And that Walter Lenfaunt has
nothing in the county, except a rent which is in the hands of Agnes,
for the same debt. And that all the others in the writ contained have
nothing in the county,

chief Serjeant, come. And Agnes by John Gressyng and Thomas
Clamp, her general attorneys by writ of the King under the great seal
of England, likewise come. And Agnes colnplains that the Sheriff
and Walter Maunsell maliciously, and in favour of John son of
Thomas, and the others, did not fully execute the w^rits directed to '
the Sheriff for levying the 200r, to wit, that where the Sheriff at the
quinzaine of S. Michael a. r. xxxii., returned that John son of Thomas
has nothing except the custody of the lands of Thomas son of Maurice,
which he holds of Gerard de Orum for the extent; and the residue
which he had of the Earl of Ulster, at Esclon, long before the coming
of the writ, he delivered to Edm. le Botiller for the marriage of his
dauo-hter. Said answer is not to be admitted, because in the writ
directed to the Sheriff it is contained — of lands and chattels Avhich were
of John and the olliors n.r. xx.. t9 w-hovsesocver hands «Vc. And the

Slierifl' cannot show that alienation to have been made before said year.
And likewise John had at the time of said answer 40 librates of land
in his bailiwic, bv demise of Margaret, widow of Thomas son of
Maurice, at Sened in Oconyl. And likewise he had 20 librates of land
in said county, at Corkmoyth, the Sheriff well knowing this. And
Agnes likewise complained that where the Sheriff, in the quinzaine
of S. Hilary a. r. xxxiii., returned that he took of the goods, of John
in the hand of the King in Oconyl, 16 oxen and 16 afers, value 4:0d.
each, for which he has not yet found buj-ers ; the Sheriff has not, nor
anj'One for him, caused them to Ix? driven to any town or market, to
sell them, but the cattle always remained w4th John and his servants.
So that, the taking w-as made by word only. Likewise when
he returned that he took into the hand of the King, of the goods of
John, 10 librates of rent in Oconyl to be levied in the term of Easter
next; and 20s. rent of the same at Corkmoyth of same term; and 20
marcates of rent of same, at Esclon, of same term, w^hich he returned
to be in the hands of tenants. And afterwards on Monday after Mid
Lent next following, he returned that the rent of John before taken
into the hand of the King is levied by the bailiffs of Edmund le
Botyller : the Sheriff ought not to be admitted to said answer ; because
if the rents were inhibited in the hands of the tenants, and the tenants
paid them otherwise without warrant of the Sheriff, the Sheriff would
be entitled to levy the rents again from the tenants, and to amerce
them heavily. And likewise however the bailiff's of Edmund caused
the rents of Esclon to be levied by assignment of John, Edmund yet
had nothing, nor did lie cause to be levied from the other rents of John,
which extended to .30 librates and more, in same term. And likewise
where the Sheriff returned at the quinzaine of S. Michael a. r. xxxii.,
of James Ketyng, that all his goods were arrayed at the Exchequer,
Dublin, in the morrow of said feast. And also returned at the quin-
zaine of S. Hilary a. r. xxxiii., of said James, that all his goods were
taken into tli© liand of the King, for pledge of Will. Uncle for 24
marks, and for his other debts. Aud also where the Sheriff returned at
this day, that James Ketyng had not in the county sufficient for the
debt in which he is bound to the^ King. Said answ^ers are made in
favour of James, maliciously, because the Sheriff nor anyone in his
name, caused no money tO' be levied in all said time, to the us.e of the
King, of the lands or chattels of James ; but permitted him to dispose
of his goods at his will. Wherefore she says that she has damage to
100/. And she prays remedy as well for the King as for herself.
And the Sheriff' and Walter Maunsel now come. And the Sheriff*
says that he did no trespass, because the execution and answers were
made by Walter Maunsel, the chief serjeant in the county, to whom
the Sheriff by custom sends the wirits directed to him to be executed,
without whom the Sheriff' can do nothing concerning them. And
Walter acknowledges and says nothing against said answers, except
that they were made by his sub-serjeants in his absence. And he
submits himself to the grace of the court.
And Agnes says that the Sheriff ought not to be excused for the
default of any serjeant, unless the serjeant be a bailiff of fee, having
return of writs, as the seneschals of liberties in which the Sheriff can
do no office without writ of the King in which isi contained " quod
non omittat propter libcrtatem." And she praj^s judgment as well
of the Sheriff, as of the acknowledgment of Waltei' Maunsel.

Day is giveu to them, on Monday after Mid Lent. And the Slieriff
is commanded, of the oxen and afers already taken, of 10 librates of
rent in Okonyl, 20s. rent in Corkemoyth, and 20 marcates of rent
of John son of Thomas, in Esclon, to levy as before.
Afterwards at that day, the Shcaiff retui'ns that tliis writ was
returned to the Chief Serjeant, who answers ; that Robert de la Roche,
Oliver Smych, Walter [son of] Maur', Bolacz son of Walter, John son
of Reginald, who were with John son of Thomas, Dermot Od[ay],
L[ogh]lyn Oday, Rory Oglassagh Oday, Rory Keth Oday, Thomas fyn
Oday, Thomas don Oday, and Robert Oday, with their great following
of Irishmen, deforced William Maunsel, attorney of Walter Maunsel
chief Serjeant, of the 16 oxen and 16 afers before taken, and of 30
oxen, 16 afers, and 20 cows, taken for the 10 librates of rent of the
betaghs of Sir John [son of] Thomas, in Okonyl, and of 40 porks,
value each 6rf., and SO sheep. And of other goods of John, after the
coming of this writ, there were not found but the crop of ... acres
of wheat, value each 40r/., to guard which, no one in those parts dared
to put hands. And Mahyn McKynery, Loy McMoy, Stephen Oshyth,
with 20 of their following, whose names are unknown, deforced
William of six afers taken for the 20s. rent at Cork[emoyth]. Nor
can more goods of John be found there. And the betaghs of John at
Esclon, before the coming of the serjeant, fled with all their goods
into the parts of Thotmun, and elsewhere, where the Serjeants could
not find them. On account of which the Sheriff, taking the posse
coinitatus, went to all said parts according to the Statute of the King.
He found the deforcers fled,
{Continued Membrane 31f/.)
and the said goods taken into County Kerry, and elsewhere where
the Sheriff could not get at them. On account of which he could not
levy the money in the writ, nor any part of it.
All goods of James Ketyng in co. Lymerick were taken into the hand
of the King by other writs before the coming of this writ, so that
nothing could be levied. Walter Lenfaunt has nothing in co.
Lymerick, except a rent at Kyltil, which before the coming of this
writ was assigned to Agnes de Valence, for the debt in the writ.
John de Fulleburn, John de Ponchardon, and "Walter de Bodyngton
have nothing in co. Lymerick.
On this, Agnes by her attorneys appears against said Sheriff and
Walter Maunsel, and prays judgment, and they come not. Therefore
it is adjvxdged that Agnes recover against them her damages, to be
taxed by the court. And to judgment as to the Sheriff and Walter.
And at the instance of Agnes^, alleging that John son of Thomas
has sufficient goods in the county. And that the 16 oxen and 16 afers
which the Sheriff now returns to have been rescued from the serjeant
by Kobert de la Roche and others, were not rescued, nor was the
serjeant deforced by them ; because they were in possession of the
Sheriff about a year before this return, as appears in the return
made to Edm. le Boteler on Monday after Mid Lent o. r. xxxiii. The
Sheriff was commanded to levy as before. He was also commanded to
take said Kobert de la Roche, Oliver Smych, Walter son of Maurice,
Bolacz son of Walter, Jolin son of Reginald, who were with John son
of Thomas, Dermot Oday, Loglyn Oday, Donnold Oday, Rory

Oday, Robert Oday, Mahyn McKynery, Loy McMoy, and Stephen
O Shyth, and have them to answer for their contempt and trespasses.
The Sheriff was also commanded to enquire by oath what malefactors
did said trespasses v/ith Robert, de la Roche and the others, and to
take all whom he should find culpable, and have them to answer.
The Sheriff of Typerary was commanded, of the goods of James Tipperary.
Ketyng and the others to levy, as above, 100/. for Agnes. And the
Sheriff returned to Edm. le Boteler, a. r. xxxiii., that James caused to
be threshed and taken away the corn before taken, against the will of
those to whom it was given to guard. And James with his following
forcibly took 200 sheep which tlie Sheriff took into the hand of the
King, of James' goods, for said debt, and which the Sheriff had in his
custody for 8 days. The Sheriff was also commanded to attach James
and have him to answer for his contempt and trespass. Also to attach
Henry Haket, late sheriff', AVilliam son of Ricard, his sub-sheriff, and
Walter Maunsel, chief serjeant of fee, and have them to answer for
that they permitted the trespasses to be done, and did not execute the
precepts directed to them.
And the Sheriff now returns that of the goods of James are taken
one stack of corn, value 4 marks, and it was given to Alex. Baly-
curryn, and Ric. son of Thomas del Morton, to offer for sale, and
buyers were not found. And he has not more, except what is taken
into the hand of the King, for his debt, which does not suffice for it.
John son of Thomas, and the others have nothing in his bailiwic.
Upon this, Agnes, by her attorneys, appears against said James,
Henry Haket, William son of Ricard, and Walter Maunsel, of said
plea. And they come not. And James was attached by Milo Ketyng,
and John son of Geoffrey Ketyng. Henry Haket was attached by
Walter Scurlag, and William ithe cook. William son of Ricard was
attached by John son of Maurice and James de Hauerberg. And
Walter Maunsel was attached by Luke son of John and Stephen
Bordon. Therefore they in mercy. And because the Sheriff took in-
sufficient mainpi-ise from James, having respect to' the trespass imputed
to him: therefore he in heavy mercy, to wit, John Rys. And at the
instance of Agnes, alleging that James has other goods and lands suffi-
cient, besides those taken, the Sheriff is commanded, as before, to
levy ; and again to attach James and the others and have them to
answer on Monday after Mid Lent; and let the Sheriff be here to
hear his judgment.
Afterwards at that day, the Sheriff returned that the chief serjeant
was conuuanded. Who answers, that all lands and chattels of James
Ketyng in said county are taken into the hand of the King, for a
fine of 100/. which he made before Walter Lenfaunt and his fellows,
justices itinerant at Casshel, and are given to mainpernors until he
find security for the fine. John son of Thomas and the others have
nothing in the bailiwic.
Upon this, Agnes, by her attorneys, appears against James, Henry
Haket, William son of Ricard, and Walter Maunsel, of said plea.
And they come not. And James was attached by John son of Geoffrey
Ketyng, Milo Talebot, and Henry le Flemmeng. Therefore they in
mercy. And it is assessed by the Court at 20/. And Henry Haket
was attached by John Skyrmisshour and Geoft'rey Haket. And
William son of Ricard was attached by Nich. Laynagh and Alex, le

And let the Sheriff be there to hear his judgment.
Kildare The Slieriff of Kyldare was commanded, of the corn, oxen, and
afers taken at Rathymegan and of other goods and lands of John son
of Thomas, and the others, as before, to levy 300/. for Agnes as above.
And the Sheriff now returns that John son of Thomas by force took the
corn before taken, and expended it at his will, which was given to
Geoffrey le Blake, Stephen Braylis, Will, son of William, John
Melaugh, John Giffard, and John Stanewell, to guard. And the goods
and afers before taken are given to John de Hothom, Geoffrey le Blake,
Stephen Brayles, John Stanewell. Ph. Raiinks, and John de Vaus, to
lead to Dublin. And he took into the hand of the King of the goods of
John son of Tho-mas, at Maynoth, 40 crannocs of wheat and oats (value
each crannoc 4*-.), the crop of 60 acres sown wath wheat (value each
acre 4.<!.), and they are given to Geoffrey le Blake &c. to sell. And 25/.

of the goods of Walter Lenfant, the crop- of 20 acres sown with wheat,
value each acre 5.9. And they are given to Henry le Arblaster and
John son of David, to sell. And John dei Ponchardon has nothing in
the bailiwic, because all his goods are taken into the hand of the King,
for debts of the King, before receipt of this Avrit. And John de
Fulleburn and Walter de Bodyngton have nothing.
Upon this, comes Agnes, by her attorneys, and complained that the
Sheriff" and Robert Braynok, chief serjeant of Oftolan, in favour of
said John son of Thomas, Walter Lenfant and John de Ponchardon,
falsely acted in said jDrecepts, to wit, where in the quinzaine of S.
Michael a. r. xxxii., the Sheriff' returned that he took of the goods of
John son of Thomas into the hand of the King, 24 crannocs of wheat
and oats, value 2.s\ a crannoc, 12 oxen (40f/. each), 4 afers (iOd. each),
and that sale was proclaimed, and there are no buyers. And that
John de Ponchardon has nothing, because all his goods are taken into
the hand of the King for his debts. And likewise on the Monday
after Mid Lent following, he returned that the goods of John son of
Thomas, to wit, 23 crannocs of wheat and oats, l)efore taken at Rathy-
megan. John took and expended it; and that of 12 oxen, 4 afers,
l)efore taken, sale was proclaimed ; and that all other goods of John
are taken into the hand of the King for debts of Gerard Chymbard :
the Sheriff never took said corn, oxen, or afers, but by word
only. And that John son of Thomas never had respite. And that he
did not take the goods of Jolin for the debts of Gerard Chymbard :
iior did he take the goods of John de Ponchairdon, as he says. She
says also that John son of Thomas ha*i in the manors of Maynoth,
Rathymegan, and Taghmodoc, in said county, rents to the extent of
200 marks. Wherefore she says she has damage to 100/., and she
prays judgment.

And the Sheriff, to wit, Albert de Kenle, and Robert Braynok, now

make other, for fear of John son of Thomas. Therefore let Agnes
await taxation of her damages against them. And to judgment of the
Sheriff and Robert. And the Sheriff is commanded to levy as before ;
and to make return on the Monday after Mid Lent.
Afterwards at that day, the Sheriff returns that for the goods taken
at Rathymegan, he has sufficient surety for the money to be paid in
the month of Easter, because he could not find buyers, except by assign-
ing such term to them. And of rents taken, and of the goods of John
at Maynoth which came to the hands of Edm. le Bote[ler], of the term
of Easter, they are inhibited in the hands of tlie tenants, because they
cannot be levied before the term. And Walter Lenfant has satisfied
Agnes of the portion belonging to him of said money by rent which
he assigned to her in co. Lymerick, of which Agnes is in seisin. And
James and the others have nothing in liis bailiwic. At the instance
of Agnes, the Sheriff is again commanded to levy as before.

Therefore let writs be made.

carry corn by sea out of the port of Drogheda tO' the parts of Water-

Ireland who need corn. It is granted that they may do so; provided
that they do not carry the corn out of this land; provided that the
corn to be loaded in ships, be loaded by indenture made between the
owner of the corn and the bailiffs of tlie town where the corn is loaded ;
and also between those where it is discharged, lest there be any deceit.
Let letters patent be made.
Loulh. Petition heard of Ric. de Exon', chief justice of the Bench, Dublin,
praying that where the fishery in the water of the Lynne, in which
the river of Athirde and the river descending from Maundeuileston
join, is the several fishery of Ricard to the sea, and above in said river
of Maundeuileston, in a small particle the King and he^ have the
fishery in severalty ; and Ricard in said fishery towards the sea
has constructed at great expense a pool with sluices (^stagnum cum
exchisis) ; and he prays that the King by his Justiciar and Council
would grant him said fishery by reasonable extent; and would give
him licence to fish in said sluices, taking for the use of the King-
reasonably for that easement, according to the discretion of the
Justiciar and Council. And this it seems to him the King may well
do, because Roger Gernoun, who has the fishery next to the King's
fishery, has a pool wholly enclosing (include/is) the river, by which he
claims that he may take salmon at his will, and imiDede the salmon
from passing further, although he does not show any special deed.
And as to injury of the neighbours, Ricard prays that some faith-
ful man be assigned, who may make enquiry of the injury by oath
of good men, of the kindred and neighbours of those to whose injury
it is said to be ; and that satisfaction be made to them. And he
prays that advice be had as to the pi-emises, and further that if the
King, without suit of the parties, cause Ricard's weir to be thrown
down, the King will not receive profit, nor will the King's fishery be
improved beyond the ancient extent.
It is granted that he may fish in said sluices for salmon and other
fish to the feast of S. Michael next. And that then, under the fealty by
which he is bound to the King, he certify the Justiciar and Council
of all profits arising therefrom, in any way ; that from that time if on
these things he may have grace, the King be not deceived of his profit
to be taken yearlj^ therefrom, and the Justiciar and Council may more
surely charge him as against the King, as well of the taking of said
profit in the meantime, as thereafter. And also the hurt to the neigh-
bours will more manifestly appear, as to the back water (resulafio)
of the water impeded by the weir (sfagnum) , in summer as in winter.
And because the fishery of the King, adjoining Ricard's fishery, will
be much deteriorated by the fishing in said sluices : therefore Ricard
will be charged to the King for the meantime, and shall answer for
the extent at said term to the King.

Dublin. j^jg ^}g Feringes archbishop of Dublin was attached to answer the
King, of a plea wherefore when the church of Typerkeuyn, being
vacant and belonging to the presentation of th© King, by reason of the
vacancy of the archbishopric, Ijeing in the hand of the King by the
death of John de Saunford; the King presented his clerk, Robert de
Carleton, who was admitted and inducted by the Custos of the Spirit-
ualities : Ricard, now archbishop, removed Robert from said church,
Vjecause he was not ordained to the priesthood within the first year from
the time when he received possession of the church. And of said
church, which then Avas parochial, he ordained two prebends, and
conferred them on other persons, the royal assent not being obtained.
And no notice Avas given to the King of tlie vacancy when it first
became vacant by lapse of the year, although it belonged to the King
to present to it, by reason of vacancy, the archbishopric being then in
his hand. And Roliert de Carleton who sues for the King, says that
tlie King has damage to 200^ And he brings his suit.
And the Archbishop by his attorney comes, and says he is not bound
to answer. Because a plea depends in court l^etween the King and the
Archbishop by Avrit of the King, tliat the Archbishop permit the King
to present a fit person to said [church] which is vacant and in the
King's gift by reason of the archbishopric being vacant and in the
hand of the King. By which writ the King intends to prove the right
of the advowson against the Archbishop, and his damages, to which
plea, this is accessory and annexed. And he prays judgment if he is
bound to answer this writ, until it is found whether the King, by said
writ of Quod permittat, ought to recover his presentation to said
church, especially wdien either of the writs tends to one and the same
end, that the King be admitted at present to present to the church
for said cause.
And Robert sa_vs for the King, that the King does not intend by this
writ to recover said presentation, but only to punish the Archbishop
because he did not give notice to the King of the vacancA', and because
Avithout obtaining the royal assent, by his OAvn act he made tAA^o pre-
bends of the same church, in prejudice and disherison of the King.
And he prays that the Archbishop ansAver, or be had as undefended.

Dublin. Master Thomas Cantok came in court and recorded tliat an unknown
man from England, having associat-ed to him Hugh de Notinghani,
who was accustomed sometimes to be a clerk in the Bench, Dublin, and
sometimes an attorney in court, came to said Chancellor, protesting
that he was of Notingham, named John Tel ; and tliat he came to
Ireland to imjilead Adam de Sevnt Boys of certain tenements which
he had demised to him. And ho prayed a writ against Adam, and
that Hugh be admitted his attorney. And when the Chancellor wished
to make him sware that he was John, said Hugh to whom the Chan-
cellor gave credit, as a man of court, swore that he sufficiently knew
him, and that he was John Tel. And afterwards the contrary was
related to him: that he was not said John, but one John de Lincoln
of the town of Notingham.
John and Hugh being attached, now come and cannot deny this.
Therefore let them be committed to gaol, and have prison one year,

King's prison, came to co. Tipperary, by commission of the King's
court, to enquire of the money which Walter, late sheriff, received,
as well by summons of the Exchequer, as of the profits and other
issues of the county. By pretext of which commission Thomas levied
said money from lleginald and Matthew. And on this, they proffered
letters patent under the name of Thomas in which is contained that
Thomas received these sums from them, and put them in deposit with
Geoffrey de Salle, in presence of sir Robert Mouncel and others.
Walter anew impleads them for the money before Walter Lenfaunt
and his fellows justices itinerant in co. Typerary.
And Thomas jjresent in court, demanded of this, acknowledges that

Nothing. But that immediately after his return from said parts,
having performed the things wdaich were enjoined him by the com-
mission, he reported to the Treasurer what he had done. Who sent
to Geoffrey, and demanded the money to be paid in the Exchequer,
in exoneration of the debts of Walter, for the time when he was Sheriff
of the county.
Reginald and Matthew pray that they be not compelled to pay the
money again, Avhich he so levied from them, and received by authority
of the office committed to him by said commission. Therefore the Justices
itii>erant are directed to supersede the execution against Reginald
for the money, until it be discussed in court whether tlie money was

And l^ecause now, at the port [of Droghe]da, and also at the port of
Dublin, there have landed divers men and merchants of said town of
Are and of the parts adjoining, with merchandise, wlio are suspected
to be participators of said trespass, the Mayor and bailiffs of Drogheda

say that Geoffrey never retained to himself such debts of the King
which he levied, but faithfully paid them to the King, in the Exchequer
of Dublin. They say however that Geoffrey, while mayor, had in
summons of the Exchequer to levy of Simon de Ludegate, of the chattels
of Thomas Locard, a fugitive, forfeited, 10s., which Simon's clerk
paid to Geoffrey, receiving his letter of acquittance. And Geoffrey
paid the money in the Exchequer among " Debts' of divers," receiving
from the Chamberlains of the Exchequer a tally of acquittance of
Debts of divers, which made mention of a great sum of money in
which said 10s. are comprehended. And because Geoffrey did not
have the 10s. struck out of the Pipe of estreats of the Exchequer, those
10s. again ran in the summons. And Simon's clerk came to the
Exchequer, complaining of Geoffrey, that he did not acquit Simon of
the money, and he showed Geoffrey's letter for it. And Geoffrey could
not deny that he received the money but said that he paid it to the
King as above. And because Geoffrey by ignorance did not have the
10s. struck out of the summons, nor demand a separate tally for it,
he, Geoffrey, is again charged with it in the Exchequer. And they
say that Geoffrey never, when Mayor of the city, made any conceal-
ment of the King's money in any other way.
Because the) merchants of the Society of Friscobakli, to whom the Fri;<cobaldi.
King granted the money arising from the custom of wools and hides

Westminster, was arraigned tliat lie led a niultitude of armed people
to the town of Oto de Grandison of Typerary, by which divers conten-
tions rose in that town, and six of Oto's men were slain. And after-
wards those malefactors led by Ko))ert, drawing to them a multitude
of other people, burned and depredated, as men of war, the land of
Oto and the King's lands in same oo. and in co. Lymerick, to the
King's damage of 10,000/. Robert said that he stood acquitted before
Wogan, and of this puts himself on Wogan's record. Wogan is to
.search the rolls, and make return of what he may find to the King at
the next parliament. Teste R. le Brabanzovin, 6 Nov. a. r. xxxiii.
And having searched the rolls of the Crown, it appears that Robert
le Halywell never was arraigned before the Justiciar, of the things
which are contained in this writ, but was only arradgned of the death
of Roger Springhose, in co. Typerary, of which he was acquitted.
This writ, so endorsed, is delivered to master Thomas Cantok to
bring to the King.
Be it Icnown that this writ came in dujilicate. One was returned
by the Chancellor ; the other by Robert de Halywell, and delivered to
him, 10 August, to bring to England.
Gilbert le Paumer, for fine for trespass, as in the rolls of pleas of
Easter term a r. xxxiii., 10 marks, by pledge of Walter de Ridelesford
and John de Sntton, knt.
Ric. Talon showed the court, that when, at the suit of Cristiana de
Marescis, a writ was directed to the Sheriff of Kildare, to summon
Ricard before the Justices of the Bench, Dublin, at the quinzaine of
S. Martin last, to acknowledge by what service he claims to hold his
tenement of Kenmoy, of Cristiana. At which day, the Sheriff returned
10 marks rent of the issues of said Ricard, which were forfeited. And
because Ricard at that day was in the service of the King, before
the Justices for Pleas' of the Crown, at Ros ; and he has sued a writ to
save his default. And although the writ was delivered to the Justices,
yet the 10 marks was levied by summons of the Exchequer. And he
prays remedy. And Ric. de Exon' and his fellows justices, present in
court, acknowledge that they received the Avrit, but could do nothing,
because Ricard said that he delivered his estreats of that term to the
Exchequer, before the receipt of the writ, which came to them a
quarter of a year after the delivery of the estreats.
It is granted by the Justiciar and Council that the rolls of tlie
Bencli, and also the estreats, bo amended, so that Ricard be quit of
the 10 marks. And it is granted that the writ be of force notwith-
standing the lateness of its reception. And because the 10 marks are
engrossed in the account of the Sheriff of Kildare now rendered, it is
agreed by the Justiciar and Council that it ]>e amended by writ.
In like manner it is agreed for master William de la Ryuere, for
10/. forfeited in the Bcncli, in the same way, at suit of Nigel le Brun.

for the death of Philip; and also the appeal which Mabilla widow of
Eustace Crok made in same county against said Walter, for the deatli

summon Sarra and INIabilla at this day, to hear the record.
And the Sheriff returned that Sarra and Mabilla are not found,
nor have they lands in his bailiwic where the}' may be summoned.
Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to summon them at the house of
Robert Haket and Nich Crok, their pledges to prosecute, to be here in

cause it to be publicly proclaimed in full court, that they be here if

bailiffs of Drogheda on the side of Meath, are directed to enquire
by oath, if Elias and the others are of the kingdom of England, and
not of Scotland, or not ; and to return the inquisition under their seals.
Afterwards the Mayor iVc. sent an inquisition, in which is contained
that Elias, and one Will. Boweneys and Robert Seman, mariners of

He now returns tliiit they belonged to Mich, son of Maur. Aylward
deceased, who was demanded before John d© Ponte for that he treated
with Ilol)ert Aylwarih felon of tlie death of Adam Proutfot and that
he remained iii tlie company of Robert after tlie felony was committed.
Which Michael refused tlie common law and held himself to the
privilege of a clerk, and was delivered to prison, because no ordinary
came to demand him. And therefore the tenements are taken into the
hand of the King.
Walter de la Hav esclieator was directed to certify the Justiciar, Dubliu.
the cause of taking into the hand of the King half of a carucate
of land in Rouelagh. which belong'ed to the Prior of the house of S.
John without the New gate of Dul)lin.
The Escheator now returns that it was taken l>ecause the Prior and
convent entered without licence, after the Statute of Mortmain.
And on this comes the Prior and says that his predecessors, priors
of said house, were seised without interruption for 60 years past.
And he prays that it be inquired. And Hugh Canon sulD-escheator,
who sues for the King, likewise. Therefore let the truth be enquired

succeeded two daugliters as heirs. Of the elder daughter was born a
son by name Ph. Scada,n, who sold his pui'party of the carucate to
Roger Owayn, whose heir holds it of the King in capite. And the
younger daughter, Cecilia, enfeoffed of the other half, the prior of
the house of S. John, predecessor of the present prior, before the
coronation of the present King.
Afterwards the Prior gives to the King 10<., to hold the tenement
of the King, by the form of the gift made to his predecessor. And he
did fealty to the King. And as to the other half, the King had the
custody. And it is agreed by the Prior and John, that the Prior
henceforth pay half of the pound of pepper, and John the other half
for ever.
It is granted that Will, de la Mare, who at the instance of the Earl Meath.

The King sent his writ : Edward kc. to Jolm Wogan ivc. He is to
enquire if it be to the damage of the King, or any other, if he should
grant to Maurice archbishop of Cassel, that he may give one acre and
a half in Fythard to the Friars of the order of S. Augustin, to erect
anew a manse and to dwell there; to hold to them in perpetual alms.
Tieste at Kyngeston Lacy, 28 Dec. a. r. xxxiv.
Because the Justiciar has not leisure to make inquisition, he sent
the writ to Walter Lenfaunt and his fellows justices itinerant in co.
Tipperary, who sent an inquisition:
Inquisition taken at Cassell before Walter Lenfaunt and his fellows
itinerant there, on Thursday after the quinzaine of Easter a. r.
xxxiv. by the following — Roger de London, Will. Ketyng, Thomas de
Fenne, John Beysam, Jolm de Doundonot, Hugh Crompe, Martin son
of John, Walter Malfot, Joccus Mauclerk, l>ic. de Fenne, Stephen
Braynok and Daui Drak.
The Jurors say that Walter Mulcot gave to the Friars, said land to
construct anew a manse and to dwell there, which Walter held said
land of Maurice archbishop of Cassell quit of all services, because he
charged his lands, which he had elsewhei'e, with the services belonging
to .said land, which lands suffice for the customs and services of the
land given, and also of the land retained to him. And afterwards
Maurice the archbishop, as chief lord of the land, confirmed to the
Friars, said land ; which was worth to Walter before the gift 12r/.
yearly in all issues. And so it is no damage to the King or others.
They say also that the lands of the Archbishop and Walter remaining
beyond said gift, are sufficient for the ciistoms and services, as well of
the land given, as of those retained by them, and for all other charges
which they are accustomed to sustain, as in suits, aids, tallages,
watches, and other charges. So that the country by said gift will not,
by defect of the Archbishop and Walter, be charged more than was
accustomed. In testimony the Jurors put their seals. At Cassell on
above day. The writ with the inquisition' is given to the Friars to
bear to the King.

were in the meadow of Basilla Bresky, and William came in the name
of his mother, to impound the cattle, as he was entitled to do, Maurice
assaulteil and wounded him. Maurice says he did him no trespass,
and prays that it be enquired. AVilliam likewise. Let the truth be
enquired by the country.
Afterwards William gives to the King ■iO.'/. for licence to agree, h\
pledge of Maurice who will acquit him. And tlie agreement is that
Maurice acknowledge that he owes William half a mark, to be paid
at certain tenns, or levied by the Sheriff. And William remits him
all action.
Meath. Will. Sauncmelle appears against Walter Northyng, late serjeaut of
the King in the parts of Loxeu.edy, of a plea, of trespass, to wit, that
when said William late coroaier of the King in these parts, gave divers
chattels of felons to the amount of 9 marks, to certain sufficient
persons, to answer to the King when required; Walter levied the
money from tenants of William, and not from those to whom the
chattels were so delivered. And afterwards the money was levied by
distraint of the Exchequer Dublin from William, because Walter
did not pay the money which he so levied.
And he comes not, and the Sheriff was commanded to attach him.
And the Sheriff returns that Walter Avas' not found, nor has he any-
thing by which he can be distrained, because all his goods are in the
hand of the King, for his debts. And on this comes William and
complains that the Sheriff, in favour of Walter, omitted to execute the
precept, and presented what is not true. For that Walter can be
found to be attached ; and that he uses and disposes of his goods,
without the Sheriff levying anything for the King. And this he offers
to prove, as well for the King as for himself. Therefore the Sheriff is
commanded to attach Walter, and have him to ansAver. And let the
Sheriff be here to hear his judgment.

first Sunday in Lent a. r. xxiii., assaulted him, and struck him on the
head with a sword and gave him th.i'e'e wounds, tO' his damage of 20L
And John says that he is not bound to ansAver. Because William
formerly in court here, impleaded him by this same bill; and because
the trespass Avas said to be done in the city of Dublin, at the instance
of tlio Mayor and bailiffs of tlie city, demanding their court of said
plea, the ])laintiff' Avas told to sue his plaint before the Mayor and
bailiffs. And the plea Avas carried there and tried. And John Avas
convicted of a trespass done to William, and was conunitted to prison,

the whole land, Theobald, by Roger le Mouner and Will, de Stokes,
his bailiffs, distrained said Mayor and conmiunity and their men to
pay toll to Theobald, in his market of Dyuelek, to the damage of the
Mayor and community, and against custom hitherto obtaining.
And Theobald and the others formerly at the quinzaine of S. Hilary
last came, and Theobald then said that said toll is a profit belonging to
his manor of Dyuelek. And he said that Walter de Lacy his great-
great-grandfather, whose heir he is, was seised of said manor and other
tenements, and died in seisin, taking' such toll. After his death the
manor was assigned to Margery daughter of Gilbert de Lacy cousin
and one of the heirs of Walter, mother of Theobald who was accustomed
to take such toll in said town, and died in seisin. After whose deatli,
Theobald entered said manor and was hitherto in seisin of taking said
toll in said town, by the men of said town, witliout interruption.
And he says that he ought not to answer for it, without Roger son of
Edmund de Mortuo Mari and Johanna his wife, the other of the heirs
of said Walter. Therefore the Sheriff of Dublin was commanded to
summon Roger and Johanna at the manor of Trym (which Geoffrey de

was held from them in any past times. And if the bishopric were

by assent of the King's progenitors or not, and in what manner, and

And because the Justiciar is occupied by various matters of the King

earl of Ulster was assigned to enquire of the truth by oath of good
men of the co. of Connacht, who sent :
Inquisition taken before Ric. de Burgo earl of Ulster, on Thursday
after the Close of Easter, a. r. xxxiv., by the following, Jordan de
Exon', Ph. de Rupeforti, Will. Preiidregast, Ric. de Lyt, Henry
Haket, Walter Haket, Walter de Ryddelyfford, Ph. de Staunton,
Nich. de Hereford, Geoffrey Hu&.se, Fulco Orle, Stephen Proute.
Which Jurors say that the temporalities of the bishopric of
Enaghdun, on the death of Muruth 0 Flascry bishop there, were taken
into the hand of the King by William Bakebuys, then escheator of
Ireland, in the time of John son of Geoffrey justiciar of Ireland. And
after the death of Murutli, Thomas 0 Mully was made bisliop there.
And after the death of Thomas, Florence M<^lyn archbishop of Tuam
entered into the bisliopric, by licence of the canons of Enaghdun.
and retained, all his time, all its temporalities and spiritualities. And
after his deatli Tomolcaugli 0 Konhur archbishop succeeded, and in
his time, Will. Bakepus escheator took the temporalities of the
bishopric of Enaghdun into tlie King's liand. And after this the
Escheator, by gifts which he took from the Archbishop, delivered to
him the temporalities again. And after the death of said Thomas
archbishop, succeeded Stephen Fulboiirn archbishop, and retained the
temporalities in his time. And after his death succeeded William
archbishop who now is, and retains the temporalities, as his pre-
decessors held them. And whether the union was made by the Pope,
or by the King of England, they know not. The temporalities of the
bishopric are worth yearly in all issues 50 marks. And said William
archbishop retained the temporalities for 14 years from the time of
the Purification of S. Mary a. r. xxxiv.
And because it does not appear to the Court wliether the archbishop
of Tuam has any special deed from' the King or his jiredecessors, for
the union of the temporalities of the bishopric to the archbishopric,
or not; that they may proceed cautiously, the Sheriff is connnanded to
notify the Archbislioj) to be l^efore the Justiciar in tlie quinzaine of S.
Michael, to show Avhat he has from the King or his progenitors, wjiere-
fore he ought so to hold the bishopric united and appropriated to the
archbishopric.
At which day the Archbishop comes, and shows nothing from the
King or his progenitors for said union. Therefore the Sheriff" is
commanded to take into the King's hand the temporalities of the
bishopric, and cause them to be safely kept answering to the Ex-
chequer of Dublin. As to the extent, it appears in the rolls of the
term of S. Michael next, where the Sheriff' of Connacht is charged
with it.
Afterwards said inquisition with the writ ^\as delivered to the
Bishop to carry to the King in England.
Afterwards on Sunday in the octaves of Holy Trinity, a. r. xxxv.,

Edward etc. to Johan Wogan justice Dirlaunde. The King having
learned from the inquest which Wogau sent, that he has seized the
temporalities of the bishopric of Enaghdun, which the archbisliop of
Tuam long occupied ; he directs Wogan that having called those of the
King's Coiincil in Ireland whom he will, that thev examine the matter.

coming of this writ. And on this came Agnes, by her attorney, and
says that the Sheriff' falsely made the return. Because Philip has
sufficient lands and goods in said bailiwic, to wit, in Agnes' manor of

Philip has nothing except rent due at the feast of S. Michael next, to

of Agnes' manor nor without, except horse and trappings (eqififafura)
and liis arms. And tliis the Sheriff' and Walter Maunsell are ready to

Geoffrey was a robber and receiver of robbers, and took a horse of

And Philip comes, and acknowledges that he took Geofi'rey and sent
him to the King's prison, as he was entitled to do. For he says that
when he, Philip, took an Irish thief and imprisoned him, Geoffrey
who was his servant {familiaris), by night broke Philip's prison, and
took away the thief. For which hue and cry being raised, Philip
came from his chamber and when it was told him that Geofi'rey took tlie
prisoner from the prison, he put his hands on Geofi'rey to attach him,
who resisted him, and put his hands on him and took him by the hair
of the head. So at length he was taken by Philip and sent to the
King's prison. And there Philip attached himself to sue against him.
He says also that formerlv by the Justiciar, licence was given tO' hin:i

lieeause Geofi'rey drew to him many young men of his race, of whom he
l)egan to make kernes (herinatorex), and led them to take by force food

took him, and sent him to the King's prison, for the good of the peace,
according to the licence before granted to him. And that it is so he
prays may be enquired. Geofi'rey likewise. Therefore the Sherift' is

And Thomas^ de Snytreby, present in court, acknowledges this, and

from him on this account.
Alan says the Abbot never made peace with him for said trespass,
nor did he make himself a party in the arbitration, nor was anything
done in it with his assent. But the arbitration was made between the
Abbot and Thomas. And the Abbot and the others inflicted the im-
prisonment on him as complained, without his liaving done any tres-
pass to them. He prays that it be enquired. Issue joined. Let the
truth be enquired by tlie country. The Sheriff is commanded to have
a jury at next coming in this county.

made peace with Thomas for all said deed. Therefore it is adjudged
that Alan be in mercy for false claim. Afterwards the mercy is

The King sent his writ: Edward etc. to John Wogan etc. On the
part of John de Hausteyd and Roesia his wife, it is shown that whereas ^',?u*"'^'
they ought to have a moiety of the fish taken in the water of Anneliffy,
between their land of Lyuekan on one side, and the land of the Salmon
Leap, which was of Ralph Pipard, on the other side of the water.
And they, and the ancestors of Roesia, had the moiety of the fish taken
in said water between said lands, and Ralph Pipard and his
ancestors had the other moiety, Mhile the land of Salmon Leap was
in their hands. Ric. de Beroford treasurer of Ireland, when said land
of the Salmon Leap, by grant which Ralph made to the King, came to
the King's hand, immeddately impeded John and Roesia from having

the moiety of the fish. Wogau is to enquire, and if it appear that
John and Roesia and her ancestoi-s had the moiety of the fish in said
water until so impeded, then to permit them to have the moiety of the
fish taken. Teste at Westminster 18 April a. r. xxxiii.
The King sent another writ : Edward etc. to John Wogan etc. On
the part of John de Hausted and Roesia his Avife it is shown, that
although they and their men of the manor of Lyuekan, in each tallage
hitherto granted to the King and his progenitors in Ireland, were not
accustomed to be tallaged except for 3 carucates of land which they
hold in thei same vill, yet the Sheriff of Dublin and other tbei King's
ministers distrained them to give to the King's aid for the war of Scot-
land, lately granted, for 5 carucates of land in the same town. If
this be so, Wogan is to restore to them whatever more may have been
levied from them than was accustomed to be levied in other tallages.
Teste at Westminster 20 April a. r. xxxiii.
The King sent another writ : Edward etc. to John Wogan etc. and
Ric. de Bereford treasurer. The King has learned that certain men
of counties Kildare and Dublin have anew constructed and raised
weirs and other engines in the water of Anelyf, and much narrowed
the course of the water, so that boats with things for sale and other
things cannot come by that water to the city of Dublin, or firewood or
fish pass through those weirs and engines, as was hitherto accustomed.
And they raise other impediments in prejudice of the King, and de-
terioration of the fisherj'-, and loss of the citizens of the King's city, and
of others of those parts. Wogan is to go to the weirs, and inspect the
impediments, and having enquired of the truth, to cause the impedi-
ments to be amoved and duly amended; so that men with firewood and
boats wishing to come to the city may securely pass without impedi-
ment, and that fish may come to the King's weirs, as in past times
they were accustomed to do. Teste at Grauesende 5 Aug. a. r. xxxiii.
By pretext of which mandates, the Justiciar proceeded to enquire of
the truth, in presience of Roger Smalris, bailiff of John de Hausted
and Roesia, asserting that they have not attorneys in this land ; by
the following jurors : John son of Ririth, Albert de Kenleye, Milo de
Rocheford, and Gerald Tyrel knights, Nich. Barby, Henry Banok,
Thomas Alwyn, John Wodelok, Henry de Belyng, Adam de Houeth,
Ric. de Cruys, Reginald de Berneual, John Oweyn, Ric. de Baly-
termot. Will, de Weston of Estker, and Bertram Abbot.
■WTiich Jurors say as to the first writ, that the fish taken between the
land of Lyuecan and the land of Salmon Leap were never accustomed
to be divided l^etween .the lords of those' towns, but each of the lords
was accustomed to have his fishery to the middle/ {ad medittatem) of
the water, in places where the river of Aneliffy separates their lands
from each other on opposite sides, so that the lord of Lyuecan had
fish taken towards his land, and Ralph towards his land; and they
were accustomed to fish with engines or nets.
As to the second writ : They say that in the tenement of Lyuecan
are 5 carucates of land which now were twice! tallaged, and that tene-
ment was charged for 5 carucates. They, do not recollect what thnt
tenement was tallaged before. So they say that the manor of Lyuecan
was accustomed to contribute in tallages for 5 carucates, and not for .3.
As to the third writ : They say that Roger Smalris, bailiff of John
rle Hausted of Lyuecan, recently constructed anew a weir in said
water, and narrowed the course of the water there. But they say that
that weir is of no value, but Ro^er is sorrv that he made it. for he
34 EDWAPvD I.
259
Memhra/ne 52 — cant.
fears that the expense upon its construction will not be allowed him,
for his lord can have no profit from it.
They say also that the weirs of Kilmaynan, Chapel Isolde,
Palmereston, Lyuecan, and S. Katerine are raised, and the water in
them much narrowed, in prejudice of the King, and deterioration of
his weirs and fishery. Because they say that in those' weirs, the course
of the water was accustomed to be of) the breadth of 16 feet at least,
with sufficient depth for the passage of boats, bundles of firewood
{husca colligata), and fish.
Therefore the Sheriff is commanded to go to those parts, and cause
the weir newly raised at Lyuecan to be wdiolly pulled down, and the
other weirs, by view of the jurors, reduced in height, and the course
of the w^ater widened. So that those weirs be in the same state as they
were of old accustomed to be, and the course of the water likewise.
And that said injurious things be wholly "put away.

The Coroner of Drogheda on the side of Meath was directed to show
the cause of taking into the King's hand, of a sum of money found
with an unknown man lately wounded in co. Louth, of which wound
he died at Drogheda; and how and by whom he was slain.
The Coroner returns that one John de Hereford was wounded in co.
Louth, at suit of the men of the Earl of Ulster for theft, and w^as led
to the castle of Drogheda, and died there. And the money found with
him is given into the custody of Waltei*' the cook, under the seal of
master John de Circestre and the Constable of said castle. And
Walter dwells in Drogheda on the side of Uriel.
Afterwards, at the instance of John de Allere, chaplain of Ric. de
Burgo, earl of Ulster, asserting that John stole money of the Earl at
Grenecastel, which was left with one c)f his valets to make provision
for the Earl, the Mayor and bailiffs of Drogheda on the side of Uriel
were directed, that having taken security from the Earl to answer the
King for the "money in the next coming of Justices itinerant in co.
Loueth, they should cause the money to be delivered to the Earl.
They are to certify the Justiciar of the sum of money, and of the
security, without delay.
The Sheriff was commanded that of the lands and chattels which were
of Gilbert Laundrey at the quinzain© of S. John the Baptist, a. r. xxix.,
to whosesoever hands they may have come, he should levy 60s., for
Will, de Berdesfeld, of 100s. which Gilbert, in court at Natherlagh,
acknowledged that he owed him, and of which 60s. are in arrear.
And if Gilbert's lands and chattels are not sufficient, then to levy from
Will, de Doundonnild and Nich. de Saunford, his pledge'-,.
The Sheriff now returns that this writ was returned to Walter
Maunsell chief serjeant, who answers that he took of the goods of Will.
Doundonnyld, 6 oxen which the Sheriff sold for 1 mark. For the
residue, the chief serjeant took into the hand of the King, the crop of
10 acres sown with wheat, value each iOd., and 8 a. sown with oats
(each 2.«.), which he has not yet been able to sell, for want of buyers.

Likewise the Sheriff returns that Gilbert Laundrey has nothing in
CO. Lymerick. The Sheriff is again commanded to levy.
Afterwards, in the three weeks of S. Michael, the Sheriff returned
that he levied 2 marks. And he cannot levy more, because the goods
are in a strong march by the Glenglas and the Loghre. Of that money
he will answer Will, de Berdefeld, in his next coming to Dublin.
On this comes Will, de Berdefeld and says that the Sheriff has not
satisfied him of said money. Therefore at the instance of William,
the Sheriff is commanded to deliver to him said two marks, and to
levy the residue.

Ricard archbishop of Dublin in mercy for many defaults. (Struck
out. Error because he came before the great distraint).
Dublin. Ricard archbishop of Dublin was summoned to answer the King, of
a plea that he permit the King to present to the church of Typer-
keyuyn, vacant and in the gift of the King, because of the arch-
bishopric being vacant and in the King's hand.
Whereupon the King, by Robert de Carleton clerk who sues for him,
complains that when the King, by i*eason of the vacancy of the arch-
bishopric by the death of John de Saunford, presented said Robert,
wlio at the presentation of the King was admitted, and by the custos
of the Spiritualities instituted in same ; Ricard, now archbishop, de-
prived him of the church, because within the first year from the time
of taking the rule he had not caused himself to be ordained to the
priesthood. And he had given the church to other clerks, adjudging
it vacant from the time of the lapse of the first year ; by which the
pres>entation belongs tO' the King, against whom in such cases time does
not run. So he says that the Archbishop impeded the King from
presenting a fit clerk to the church ; tO' the damage and contempt of
the King, of 1,000/. And that he is ready to aver for the King, as
the court shall adjudge.
And the Archbishop by his attorney comes and defends. He
acknowledges that he, after his consecration, found Robert in posses-
sion of the church, which is of the advowson of the Archbishop. And
because he found that Robert was not ordained to the priesthood,
M'ithin the first year from the time of taking rule, he deprived him of
the church, and conferred it on another, as he was entitled to do,
without injury to the King.
Robert says for the King, that as the Archbishop acknowledges that
he deprived hi»n, because he was not ordained to the priesthood within
the first year, in which time the archbishopric remained in the hand
of the King by death of John archbishop, that church began to be
:U EDWARD I. 263

vacant, at a time when the arehbishoprio was so in the hand of tlie
King. And so the presentation to the church belongs to the King,
against whom time does not run. And he prays judgment for the
King.
And the Archbishop says that it is not necessary for him to know
whether Robert was in possession of the church by presentation of the
King, by reason of the archbishopric being in Ida hands by death of
archbishop John, for one year during that vacancy, or not. But he
says that Robert was in possession of the church for the whole time of
William de Hothom late archbishop, his predecessor, who next suc-
ceeded after the death of archbishop John. And the church first began
to be vacant at the time of the privation of Robert, at which time the
temi^oralities of the archbishopric were in the hand of the present
archbishop, bv render of tlie King. So he says that the collation
belongs to the Archbishop, and not" to another. And he prays judg-
ment.

against the peace.
Whereupon he complains that on Thursday after the feast of the
Nativity of S. John the Baptist last, they assaulted William Odrynan,
as above, and took from him one horse, value 10*-., a falling (2s.), and
a knife (2c?.), to his damage of 40/. And he brings his suit.
William Oconyle and Walter come and defend. And say they did
no trespass. And as to the taking of the horse, William Oconyle says
that the horse was stolen from him, and it happened one day that he
found it with W. Odrynan. On which he went to Ph. Bossher of
Balyhethan, bailiff of Old Ros, and attached himself to sue against
W. Odrynan for it. At wdiose suit the horse was attached by the
Bailiff. " And afterwards he recovered the horse by a jury of the
country, and judgment of the court of Old Ros.
Ricard says that tlie horse belonged to AV. Odrynan, his hihernicus,
and that he' bought it in thai parts of Old Leyghelyn, that the others
took it and the other goods from him. And that horse was not W.
Oconyle's nor did he make such suit against him as he says. And
this he prays may be enquired. Issue joined. Therefore the Sheriff
is commanded to summon a jury on Tuesday in Pentecost week at
Kilkenny of the visne of Old Ros and Old Leyghelyn.
Same Ricard appears against John Kift of said plea and he comes

was W. Ocon/l's and was stolen from him. And because he found the

himself to sue against W. Odrynan in the Earl's court. So that at
his suit, the horse was attached by Ph. Bossher, thel Earl's bailiff of
Old Ros. Which W. Oconyle gained the horse by jury of the country
and judgment of the Earl's court of Old Ros. And they say that W.
Odrynan bought the horse after it was stolen from W. Oconyl, not
knowing it to have been stolen. And as to the( other trespasses of
which Ricard, for W. Odrynan, complains, they say that W. Oconyl,
or the others, did him no trespass. Therefore it is adjudged that
Ricard be in mercy for false claim.

of his lands and chattels, should levy 20 marks for Will, de Berdesfeld
which Thomas, in court at Cork, acknowledged that he owed him.
And the Sheriff* returns that the goods of Thomas son of Philip are
not sufficient to levy the debts of the) King, which are demanded by
summons of the Exchequer. He is indebted to the King in 80L and
more, of which he can scarcely levy 10/. And at the suit of William,
asserting that Thomas has sufficient ; the Sheriff is commanded as
before to levy.
And in the quinzaine of S. John the Baptist, the Sheriff" returned
that all the goods which ho could find with Thomas son of Philip he
took for the debt in which he is bound to the King, which goods are
not sufficient for the King's debts. And he found that Ph. de Barry
is bound to Thomas in 120 marks, for which debt he took of the crop
of Ph. to the value of 10 marks, to pay to William in part payment of
said debt. And because the Sheriff did not make sale of the crop, nor
answer anything as to the residue of the debt, nor come to hear his
judgment, therefore he is in heavy mercy, which is put in the estreats

recovered seisin of 60s. rent in Lystowan, by assise of novel disseisin
taken between George and Geoffrey, in the absence of Geoffrey, before
John de Ponte and John son of Robert, justices assigned, at Casshell.
And Geoffrey presented himself afterwards before the Justices, and
prayed to be admitted to have an exception put forward by his bailiff
in the taking of the assise, verified according to the form of the
Statute, upon this that an assise of Mort d'ancestor between George
and Geoffrey, of said rent, was before taken before Wogan ; the Jus-
tices would not admit the verification. Wogan was direct-ed to cause the
record of the assises to come before him, and having examined them
and inspected the Statute, if he should find that anything had been
unduly done, he should have it corrected and justice done to Geoffrey

was told to Simon, whose horse it was, he and Matthew hastened there,
to take the horse from Martin. Matthew who went before, when he
could not have the horse freely from Martin, put his hand on him
and took him by the hood, twisting and pvilling it about Martin's
neck, so that he tore his hood ; and then thej^ by forco took the horse

close, and on the part of the Chapter only) granted licence ; and gives
power to Wogan, when the election is made, and the Elect presented by
thet Dean and chapter, to give the royal aasent, notify the metropolitan,
and when confirmed by him, accept fealty, and deliver the tem-
poralities, taking letters, under seal of the Elect and of the Chapter,
that this grace shall not prejudice the King in future. Teste at

behalf of the Deau and Chapter of Killala, by master Thomas le Petyt
and David de Killenny, canons of same, master John Tancard, elect
of Killala. The archbishop has examined the election, and found it
canonically celebrated, and confirmed it by his metropolitan authority.
He prays Wogan to restore the temporalities, according to the royal
mandate. Dated at Thuamie, in the vigil of SS. Peter and Paul,
1306.
On this the Dean and chapter of Killala, and likewise the Elect,
sent their letters jjatent under the seals of the Elect and of the
Chapter : John Tancard elect of Killala, and the Chapter of the same,
to all. The King having given assent to the election made in the
cathedral <^f Killala, of John to be bishop, and directed AVilliam arch-
bishop of Tuam, the metropolitan, to do what is his ; and also directed
John Wogan the Justiciar, if the archbishop should confirm the elec-
tion, then having accepted fealty from the Elect, to deliver the tem-
poralities to him. They grant for themselves and their successors for
ever, that this grace of the King now granted shall not prejudice hin\
or his heirs, in future times. Dated at Dublin, 4 July, 1306.
And because it is testified in court that the Elect caused himself to
be elected, before the kitters patent of licence came to the Dean and
chapter ; and likewise caused himself to be confirmed by the arch-
bishop of Tuam, before he went to the King's court, and without
having the King's letters to the Archbishoio that the King gave his
assent to the election, as is the custom, in prejudice of the King's
crown and dignity: the Elect being demanded upon this, comes, and
cannot deny this. And he is admitted to make fine for said trespass,
l)v 40/. Therefore the Escheator is directed, that having taken
security from the Elect for said 40/., he cause the temporalities to be
delivered to him. And the Elect in court here did fealty to the King.
Coiinacht. And the Sheriff is commanded to attach the Dean and chapter of
Killala, and likewise the Archbishop, to be before the Justiciar, in the
quinzaine of S. John, to answer for said trespasses.
Afterwards, at that day, the Sheriff did nothing. Therefore he is
commanded to attach them for the quinzaine of S. Michael, to answer.
Afterwards, at that day, continued to the morrow of S. Martin, at
Dublin, come the Archbishop, Dean and chapter. And the Archbishop
cannot deny that he confirmed the Elect before he went to the King's
court, and without having the King's letters as is the custom. And
the Dean and chapter cannot deny that the Elect caused himself to be
elected before the letters patent of licence came to them. Likewise
that they caused him to be confirmed by the Archbishop, before he went
to the King's court. And they submit themselves to the grace of the
court. Therefore they arc, by grace of the court, in heavy mercy.

Common Pleas at Cassell, before John Wogan, Justiciar, on
Friday, the feast of S. Mary Magdalen.
Walter de la Haye, escheatoa-, was directed to certify the cause of
taking into the King's hand, one messiiag'e and two carucates of land
in Knythteston, who sent:
Inquisition taken at Clonmell before the attorney of the Escheator,
on Friday after the feast of SS. Peter and Paul a.r. xxxii., to enquire
as tO' the cause of taking the lands of Knytheston in co. Limerick.
By the following: Ph. Grunbaud, Walter Russell of Broury, Thomas
Russell of Sauen, Thomas Treuedyn, John le Reue, Geoffrey son of
Ricard, Ralph Shynnog, Aunselm Myaugh, Nigel son of John, John
son of Adam of Hisbardeston, John Derneford, and Thomas son of
Eustace.
Which Jurors say that Walter de Lecton and Gunnora his wife,
who held, of the inheritance of Gvmnora, one messuage and two^ caru-
cates of land at Knythtes'ton in co. Limerick, gave said messuage and
land to Thomas Lengleis with Muriela daughter of Gunnora, in frank
marriage, at the door of the church, on the day when Thomas mar-
ried her ; by charter of AV alter and Gunnora, to be held to Thomas
and Muriela, and their heirs for ever, without service, rent, or suit
to Walter and Gunnora and their heirs. The Escheator caused the
messuage and land to be seized into the hand of the King because
Thomas held lands which were of Maurice son of Augustinus in co.
Tipperary, of the King, in capite, when he died.
On this, comes Will, de Prendregest who has Muriela to wife, and
gives the King 5 marks, for licence that she may have again said
tenements, and hold them according to said gift of feoffment : by
pledge of Maur. de Rupeforti and Oclo de Valle.
The Sheriff' was commanded, of the lands and chattels which were
of Remund Lercedekene on the morrow of Palm Sunday a.r. xxxii.,
to whosesoever hands they may ha.ve come, to levy ^1 . for Will, de
Bourn, assignee of Adam de Rupe, of AQI . which Johanna de
Valence, in this court at Ferns, assigned to Adam, of 100/. which
Remund, in same court, acknowledged that he owed her, and would
pay at certain times.
And the Sheriff returned that the seneschal of the liberty of Kil-
kenny was commanded, who answers that of the good,si of Remund,
there are levied SQ.'i., which are given to Fulco' de Fraxineto, to caxTy
to William; nor at present can more be levied. He is again com-
manded to levy 8i^. 10.^. (another term of payment having accrued).

James Gerueys chaplain complains of Math, le Flemeng, John Limerick.
Mark, and Thomas Mark; that whereas Matthew gave to James
60 acres of arable land and 3 acres of meadow in Balycolan. and Bali-
brenan, for the term of 1^ years, by ? writing which Matthew^ made
to him, for a sum of money which James paid him at the time;
Matthew, John and Thomas, by fraud and collusion, after the first
year was completed, offered him the money w^hich he paid for the
farm, demanding that having accepted the money he should render
the land and meadow to Maitthew, as he had promised by word of
mouth to Matthew. And because James would not do this, they
attached themselves to a certain magnate, and for a gift, caused
liim to como at Kilmehallok, and likewise to Lymerick, and there
threatened James, that for fear of death hei wa.s induced to permit
Matthew to enter the tenement. And so he is defrauded of his
farm, to his damage of 100/. And he brings his suit; and prays
remedy.
And Matthew, John and Thomas come, and say they did no injury
to James. They say that at the request of James, it Avas agreed be-
tween him and Matthew that he should pay him the 34 marks, which
James gave him for the farm, with the costs which he laid out about
the land, by reasonable account to be made between them, and he
should have again the land quit of James. On which Matthew agreed
with Tlioma,s, that Thomas should pay him said money, and should
have the land of Matthew under a certain form arranged between
them. And Thomas in hope of this agreement, obtained 34 marks,
and he with Matthew offered the money to James, who refused to
receive it. But at length, at the instance of Ric. le Botiller, whose
kinswoman Matthew had to wafe, whom Matthew got to come to make
peace, James received the money, and freely rendered the land to
Matthew. And afterwards Matthew demised the tenements to
Thomas, without any threats or trespass to him, by them, or others
by their procurement. And they pray that this be enquired. James
likewise.
The Jui-ors say that Matthew by his letters patent demised to
James said land. And afterwards Matthew went to James and asked
of him money on loan. Who answered that he was .sorry that he
could not give him so much money ; and said that if he would pay
him the money which he gave him for having the land to farm, with
the costs which James expended about the improvement of the land,
he might have the land again ; no security having been made thereof
between them, except by word of mouth. Afterwards Matthew in
hope of said agTeement, went to Thomas, and it was agreed between
them that Thomas should pay to James said money, and should have
the land under a certain form arranged between them. On which,
Thomas came to Cork, and for this pui-pose sold there one last of
hides, and with the money, and other which he had, brought together
34 marks, which he and Matthew offered to James, who refused to
receive it and to render the land. Afterwards James understanding
that Matthew, Thomas and John intended to eject him from the farm,
went to Robert de Boneuill, asking him from said cause to receive
the farm, doing to him for it what he should see was to be done. Who

received the farm from him, promising him that he would ke^p him
indemnified. Afterwards Matthew, Thomas and John, seeing that
they could not eject Robert from the farm, agi-eed among them-
selves that Matthew should deal with Ric. le Batiller, that for a
gift lie should come, and by fear indiice James to receive the
money and render the land. And on this he agreed with Ricard
for 40.S., by assent of John, of which Matthew sliould pay half, and
Thomas the other half. For which Ricard came to Lymerick where
James was. Matthew, Thomas and John being present, who had made
Ricard come there, and by threats to James, and for fear of death,
James, having received the 34 marks, rendered to Matthew the land
which Robert de Boneuill afterwards had rendered to him. And
Matthew demised it to Thomas.
Afterwai'ds they agree, and James gives to the King 40.<. for licence
to agree, by pledge of Matthew, Thomas, and John, who will acquit
him. And the agreement is that Thomas acknowledges that he owes
to James 10/., to be paid at certain terms, by pledge of John. And
James remits to them all action.
„ . , . , Robeit le Ferrour /•. John Etheiiard, Serjeant of the Kino- in this
county. It is found by the Jixiy that whereas John gave to Robei-t,
a horse, in pledge for \s. 6d. which he owes him ; and Robert was in
possession of the horse, from the feast of Holy Trinity last to Tuesday
before the feast of S. Mary Magdalen; John uncler colour of the
authority of his office, by Ralph Ethenard his sub-serjeant, took the
horse from Robert without having satisfied him of the money; pro-
testing that delivery was made at the plaint of withernam of John,
when he had not attached himself for such plaint.
Judgment that Robert recover 4.?. 6f/., and his damages taxed by
the jury at lOr/. And let John abjure the service ; and let him
be committed to gaol.
Afterwards he made fine, as well for the trespass [as for having
again] his office, by 20,s., by pledge of Axidoen Ethenard father of

John son of Gilbert comes, and acknowledges the receipt of the
money for said cause. But says that he then was under age. And
he prays judgment, if hei ought to be bound to such an agreement
made by him being under age. And John son of John cannot deny
this.
And becau^^e John son of Gilbert does not wish freely lo seal said
quit-claim, n(n' ought he to be compelled to this by virtue of this

him for eight days and more; afterwards she left him stealthily, and
fled to the town of KilmehaiUok; Ricard )-eceived her into his care

when Adam de Goiiles, at request of the Aj'chdeacoii, received her
and conducted her by the road, Robert, and one David Tancard, sent
by Adam son of John tO' retake Matilda and bring her back to him,
not being able to fulfil their purpose, on account of Adam de Goules,

of having come there again for the same purpose. On which they
were greatly moved against him, and attacked him. And David
wounded Ricard with his spear, and threw him to the ground, and

Limerick. Because of the lands which were of Thomas son of Maurice deceased,
who held of the King in capite in this land, when he died, and which
are in the King's hand by reason of the minority of his heix', ths King
granted to Gerard Doroin, for his long service, the custody of 100
libi'ates of land yearly in convenient places, to the leasit damage of
the King, and to the greatest advantage of Gerard, to hold until the
lawful age of the heir. And now the King learns by complaints of said
Gerald {so), that John son of Thomas has, for 5 years and more from
the time of the assignment, held the lands which were assigned to Gerald
at New Castle in Oconyl, and elsewhere in said county, to the \alue
of 100/. yearly. For which time the greatest part of the money is in
arrear to Gerald, which John ought long ago to have paid ; to' Gferald's
sjreat loss.
The Sheriff was commanded to arrest the corn and other goods which
are in those lands and deliver them to John son of David de Barr)'-,
by certain price, to keep until satisfaction be made to Gerald for the
money in arrear to him. And the Sheriff returned that this writ was

lands which were of James de Bohun, who is dead, and who held of

of James' heir. Wogan is to enquire if the King may grant the
ward of the lands; and how much they are worth yearly; and of

de Bohun, the son and heir of James, is of the age of 8 years in the

King because James held the tenements of the King, in capite, by the

g J , The Kiug sent his writ: Edward etc. to John Wogan etc. At the
Louth. prosecution of Thomas de Bvu-go and Oliva his wife, asserting that
before her marriage tO' Thomas, she had sent from the parts of Bor-
deaux {BurfhyaJ) to Ireland to John Lengeleys of Drogheda, 115 tuns
and 7 pipes of wine, to dispose of for i\\e\ profit of Oliva, as in a writing
made between her and John, which was lost when she and others in
1 he fealty of the King were driven from Bordeaux by the French :
Wogan had been directed to call before him those to whose hands the
goods of John, now deceased, have coniie, and do full justice, according
to Law Merchant, to Thomas and Oliva; which business on account
of Wogan's coming to the King in England, he had committed to
his lieutenant in Ireland ; in the record of which matter error oc-
curred. Wogan with others of the council is to have the matter
brought before them, and to cause the error to be corrected.

The, suit is set out as calendared on ]^p. 25-7 of this volume.
Damages and clear debt 190^. 12^/.
And the parties now come. And Peter, and John .son of John
Lengleys complain that the Locum teiieus erred in that when at the
quinzaine of 3. Hilary a.r. xxxiii. they 2>roposed against Thomas and
Oliva that they are not bound to answer them without a .special dee<d ;
and prayed judgment ; and if the court should adjudge that they ought
to answer further they have sufficient to answer. This eixception and
answer are not contained in thei record of that day, but at another
day, the month of Easter following. And they call for the correction
of the record of the Locum tenens, because at another time present
here in court, he recorded this. And they complain that the Locum
tenens erred, in that when the said parties pleaded to judgment in
each of said terms, Hilary and Easter, as appears in the record,
omitting that judgment, he proceeded to receive proof. Likewise
they complain that he erred, in that where it is contained in the
.suggestion of the writ of Thomas and Oliva, that Oliva sent the
wines to John Lengleys in Ireland, Oliva by her proof did not prove
that suggestion, but, as if the contrary, that she delivered the wines
to him at Bordeaux. And by that proof the Locum tenens pro-
ceeded to judgment against Peter, and John son of John. And
they pray that these errors be corrected and justice done.
Thomas and Oliva say nothing to maintain the record, except that
the Locum tenens proceeded duly in all things.
And because, having examined the record and process, it appears
to the Court that the Locum tenens eri'ed in that when the parties
pleaded to judgment, he proceeded, omitting the judgment, to receive
proof; and to render judgment by virtue of the proof. And likewise
erred in rendering judgment, because Oliva did not prove the sug-
gestion of her writ, to wit the sending of wines into Ireland, but the

delivery of wines to John at Bordeaux : It is adjudged that the record
and prci-ess be revoked aaid annulled, as t-o the proof. And the judg-
luent be had for nought. And let Peter and John son of John have
the mercies which they paid. And let the parties plead anew.
And Peter and John son of John say, as before, that they aae not
bound to answer Thomas and Oliva, without a special deed. And if
the Coiut adjudge that they ought to answer further, they will answer
sufficiently; and they pray judgment. And they say further, to wit,
Peter forliimself, that lie is ready to aver by the country that he had
nothing of the goods of the deceased, nor had he any when he wa,s
attached to answer .; if Thomas and Oliva will admit that averment.
And John son of John says for himself that it would be necessary
that Thomas and Oliva should show .some special deed of his father,
whose heir he is, by which it Avould be proved to the court that John
the father bound himself and his heirs to malic any payment, before
John the son can be bound to answer them. And he prays judgment
as before.
Thomas and Oliva say as before, that the Court ought not to ad-
judge that they should answer whether they would [stand] to their
exception at their i>eril, or renounce the exception. And as they
refuse to admit the averment which Thomas and Oliva put forward,
that they had [a deed] under the seal of John Lengleys which was
lost; they pray judgment against them as [undefended]. And as to
the averment which Peter puts forward that he has nothing, it is not
necessary to' answer this, but only to pray judgment.
[It is adjudged] that Peter and John are not bound to answer with-
out a [deed]. Thomas and Oliva take nothing by their writ, but be
in mercy.
. Stephen says he has not anything of the goods of said
deceased. And he prays that this be enquired by the country.
Thomas and Oliva likewise.
[Afterwards] Thomas de Burgo and Oliva his wife [do not prosecute].

had given the services accustomed to be done from the manor of
Rathcon and the town of Carrik, in counties Tipperary and Water-
ford, by the tenants of that manor and town ; toi hold to Otto and his
heirs for ever, which services have been withheld from Otto. The
King wishing to be certified what services were accustomed to be done
to Otto before the King acquired them, had directed Wogan to take
inquisition of the facts. But the inquisition returned into Chancery
was insufficient, in that no mention is made of the services due from
the manor and town, and how much each is worth yearly, and from
what time such services have been withheld from Otto, and in what
the services consist. Wogan is directed to enquire more fully, and
to return the inquisition. Teste at Westminster, 10 April, a. r.

Who say as to the manor of Rathcon, that no service is now with-
held from Otto. For that Geoffrey le Bret held that manor of the
King, in exchange for the town of Carrik, a. r. xxvii. Which Geoffrey
was assigned to hold the manor of Otto, as of the chief lord of that
fee, by the service due, viz. by the service of 2 marks, when royal
service shall be proclaimed, and doing suit to Otto's court of Kilfecle,

services, and died seised. After whose death Ralph his brother and
heir entered the manor, to hold of Otto by the same services. Which
Ralph, a. r. xxiv., about the feast of S. Peter ad vincula, sold the
manor to the King. Of which manor the King was seised for three
years before the said exchange. Within which time a^ royal sei*vice
was proclaimed at the Covimbre, in the time of John Wogan justiciar,
which was worth two marks, and was withheld from Otto by the
King's ministers, because the manor was iu the hand of the King

to Otto's coiirt at Kilfecle, as in pleas of retitirm iiaimum, bloodshed,
and other issues, was withheld for said three j^ears, to the damage ol
Otto of lOs. yearly.
As to the town of C'aiTik, they say that that part of the town which
is in CO. Waterford, was not held of Otto, but of the Bishop of Lymer'
{so), and so no service from that part is withheld from him. But
they say that before the exchange which the King made, a. i\ xxvii.,
about the feast of S. John, of the manor of Rathcon, with Geoffrey
le Bret, for said town of Carrik, Geoffrey held that part of the town
which is in co. Typeraiy, of Otto, by the service of two marks, when

Stephen le Poer and Margery his wife appear against Oto de

formerly made default, for which the Sheriff was commanded to
take of the land of the heir in his wardship, to the value ; and that
he be summoned to be here to answer for the heir. And now Oto
comes not, but made default after default.
Therefore it is adjudged that Stephen and Margery recover their
seisin of the lands of the heir, in the custody of Oto, to the value,
if he have it. And if he have not, then of the lands of Geoffrey,
John, and Slana, proportionally. And Oto in mercy.
And Otto complaining that error occurs in the record, appears
against Stephen and Margery. And they come not. And they had
a day to this day by essoin after they were svimmoned. Therefore let
the reading and correction proceed on their default.
Otto complains that the Justices erred in this, that in the three
weeks of S. Michael, a. r. xxx., Geoffrey son of Reymund de Burgo,
and John son of Meiler, were essoined against Stephen and Margery,
and a day was given to them in the octaves of S. Martin ; at said day
it is contained in the record that Stephen and Mai'gery demanded
against Geoffrey son of Reymund, [no] mention being made in the
plea of Geoffrey son of Reymund de Burgo, and so the plea at said
day
LikcAvise on the morrow of the Purification . . .no mention i^
made of Geoffrey son of Rey[mund de Burgo] . . . and so that
plea was sine die by discontinviance.
(Membj'ane 10.")
The same Justices in the month of Easter revived the plea without
warrant, which was so discontinued.
Likewise the Justices erred in this, that when a day was given to
Oto, in the morrow of S. John the Baptist, by summons to warrant
Geoffrey and John, in the essoin it is contained : Oto de Grandison,
custos of the body and part of the lands of Remund son and heir of
Meiler de Bermengham, etc., no mention being made of Remund son
of Meiler de Burgo, and so the plea was siue die. The Justices in the
term of S. Michael proceeded in the plea against Oto, which was give.
die by said discontinuance.
Likewise the Justices erred in this, that when Geoffrey and John
vouched to warranty Otto guardian of the body and part of the
lands of Remund son and heir of Meiler de Burgo, and Peter son of
James de Bermengham, and David, bishop of Killaloe, custodians of
other parts of the land of said heir, the Justices in the quinzaine of
S. Hilary, a. r. xxxiii., adjudged that Steplien and Margery should
recover their seisin of the lands of said heir in custodv of said Otto,

to the value of all the tenements demanded, by default of Otto; not
having respect to this, that Peter and the Bishop were vouched to
warrant with Otto. And he prays that the errors be corrected, and
justice done to him.
The record having been read divers errors were found. The Justices
erred in that when the plea, in the morrow of S. John the Baptist o. r.
xxxi., was sine die against Oto, guardian of the body and part of the
land of Geoffrey son and heir of Meiler de Burgo; because there is
contained there, Otto, guardian of Geoifrey son and heir of Meiler de
Bermengham, whom Geoffrey son of Reymund de Burgo, and John
son of Meiler de Burgo, vouched to warranty, was essoined against
Stephen and Margery, no mention was made of Geoffrey son of Meiler
de Burgo at that da}'. Yet the Justices, in the month of S. Michael
next proceeded further to hold the plea, not having respect that the
plea was sirie die in the term of S. John by discontinuance.
Likewise the Justices erred, in that, when Otto the gvxardian was
vouched against Stephen and Margery, together Avith Peter de Ber-
mengham and David bishop of Killaloe, the Justices, in the quinzaine
of S. Hilary a. r. xxxiii., at the suit of Stephen and Margery,
adjudged that they should recover against Otto' to the value of their
.whole demand, by default of Otto.
It is adjudged that the record be revoked, and the judgment an-
nulled, and that Otto have again his seisin as he had Avhen the errors
arose ; and that he have the mercy which he paid. And Stephen and
Margery in mercy.
Meath Thomas de Maundeuill appears against Nicholas de Berefurd of
Drogheda, of a plea wherefore he took four tuns of wine of Thomas,
at Drogheda on the side of Meath, to his damage of 20/. And he

And the Sheriff returns that the Seneschal and bailiffs of Drogheda
on the side of Meath, whom he commanded to execute the precept,
answered that Nicholas Avas not found, but he was distrained by one
crannoc of malt value Zs., and one cran. of wheat value iOd. There-

Tipper&ry. The Sheriff was commanded of the crop of .'50 acres sown with wheat
and oats, lately taken, as of other lands and chattels of Ph. son of
Odo de Barry, to levy 121. 6s. 8<'/., for Will, de Berdesfeld, of a yearly
pension of 40s. and one robe value 2i marks, which Phili]i, in court
before the Justiciar, at Cassell, acknowledged that he owed him (20s.
at Michaelmas, and 20.s-. and a robe or 2 marks at Easter).
The Sheriff returned that Philip took the goods which had been
taken into the King's hand, against the will of the Serjeants and main-
pernors, and did his will with them. And he has no other goods from
which the debt can be levied. And because the Sheriff does not come
to hear his judgment, and because he permitted the deforcement,
therefore he is in mercy, to wit, Henry Haket; and it is assessed by

the court at iQs. And because it is testified that Philip has other
goods sufficient, tlie Sheriff is again commanded to levy, and to attach
Philip and have him to answer.
Afterwards the Sheriff returned that Philip has no goods in the
county, except land uncultivated ; and he was not found after the
coming of the writ. Therefore at the instance of William testifying
that Philip has goods sufficient in Co. Cork, the Sheriff of Cork is
commanded to levy ; and to attach Philip, and have him to answer.
Afterwards the Sheriff of Cork returns that Philip has not goods in Cork
that county, except growing corn for which buyers are not found, and
which is in the hand of the King for debts due to the King. Philip
was attached, and delivered to David son of Will. Martel, Will, son
of Will. Martel, John de Caunteton Connaghtagh, and Ph. Casse,
who mainprise to have him to answer. Who had him not; therefore
they in heavy mercy. And be it known that the mercies are not
put in the estreats here. Therefore see for them in the rolls of
pleas of Easter term last.
At the instance of Will, de Berdesfeld, asserting that Philip has
sufficient goods in Co. Cork, the Sheriff is commanded as before to
levy, and to distrain Philip by all his lands ; and have him, at said
term to answer. And let the Sheriff be there to hear his judgment.
Afterwards, on Friday the morrow of S. Margaret the virgin, at
Cassell, came Philip, and likewise William by his attorney. And be-
cause Philip cannot deny the taking away of the corn, except that he
did not know that it was in the hand of the King. Therefore let him
be committed to gaol. And let William await the taxation of damages.
Afterwards the trespass is pardoned to Philip, so that he remain in
custody of the Marshal until he find security to William for the price
of the corn, 100s.
The King, by Will, de Berdesfeld, appears against Ph. sou of Luke Cork,
de Rupe, of a plea wherefore when the King presented Henry de
Thrapeston to the church of Moyale, vacant and in the gift of the
King by reason of the wardship of the land and heir of Thomas son of
Maurice, being in the King's hand ; and the right of pati'onage of that
church, by reason of said wardship was recovered by judgment against
William de Rupe, who had presented to it said Philip ; and a writ was
sent to the Bishop of Cloyne to admit him, and he admitted Henry;
Philip drew the Bishop and Henry into Court Christian about it.
The Sheriff was commanded to attach him. Who returned that he is
not found, and has nothing, and that he fled attachment. Therefore
the Sheriff is commanded to take him, if found, and keep him, so that
he have him before the Justiciar to answer the King.

Walter by himself, the others by their attorney, come and defend,
and say they did not take the goods. And of this put themselves on
the country. Thomas likewise. The Sheriii' is connnanded to have a
jury in the octave of S. Hilary.
Afterwards, in the octave of the Puriticatiou [tirst] year of Edward
II., at Dublin, they come by sunnnons to hear the lecord and their
judgment : so that the plea be in the same state in which it was in the
court of King Edward the father, in the octave of Holy Trinity last,
and which renu^ined aiiie die by the death of the King.
The Jurors come. Who say that Walter held a guard of men at
arms and footmen at Newtown, among whom were said Nich. Dyloun
and John Gerrous. And one day, .Walter left his guard, to make
certain jjrovision for his lord who was in England. And after liis
leaving, Nicholas and John went to the parts of Carbry, and there at
Bretachia, took the corn of Thomas, 24 cran. of wheat, value each
10s., 2 cran. of beans (each 10.^.), 2 cran. of peas, and 2 cran. of
barley (each h mark), and brought it to Newtown. And there ex-
pended the corn, Walter knowing of the manner of the taking, and
that it was not the corn of any felon.
Judgment that Thomas recover against Walter, Nicholas, and
John, the value of the corn, 14/. 6s. 8<:/., and his damages, taxed by the
court, at 10 marks. And let Walter and the others be taken, because
they pleaded by attorney. Of Hugh Maddok, nothing, because he is
dead. And because it appears by the jury that Ric. Pichard was not
at said trespass, but was in ]n'ison at Trym : therefore Thomas in
mercy for false claim as to him.
Kiigliuid. The King sent his writ (/// Firnch) : Edward etc., to Johan Wogan,
justice Dirlaunde. He is to make inqiiisition if the office of the
Marshalcy in Eyre in Ireland, is in the King's hand, and if he can
give it to whom he please without injury to any; and how much the
office is worth yearly ; and to send the inquisition to the King under

Kenley by letters patent under the King's seal used in Ireland, by
mandate of the King, of his privy seal, to hold at the pleasure of
the King ; to answer to him for the issues of the office, at the Ex-
chequer, Dublin. And Roger yet holds it by said commission. But
they say that the King may commit the office to whomsoever he will,
without prejudice to Roger or any other. And that when the eyres

his freehold in Sylyok and Palmereston in Fyngal : one messuage, 45
acres of land, 5a. of meadow, and Is. rent in Sylyok, and 5 marks
40^. rent in Palmereston.
Philip and the others (except Ricard Athelard and Simon), come by
their bailiffs, and say they claim nothing and made no disseisin.
Ricard and Simon come in person. Ricard answers as tenant of
one messuage, 45 acres of land, 5 a. of meadow, and 7s. rent, in
Sylyok; and says that Alice Crombe, who held the tenements in fee,
enfeoffed him, and so he had entry by Alice, an<l not ])y disseisin.
Simon answers as tenant of 5 marks Ibd. rent in Palmereston, and
says that assise ought not to be, because the tenement from which the
rent arises is outside the feoff of John, Avhere it is not lawful for him
to make distraint, nor does he show any special deed for said rent
And he prays judgment.
John acknowledges that Ricard was seised as well of the tenements
in Syliok as of the rent in Palmereston by demise of Alice. Bui
bays that she, who held the tenements in fee, wishing to promote said
Ricard, her bastard son, enfeoffed him of said tenements. And
afterwards Ricard demised the tenements to John and Alice, for the
lives of each of them, rendering yearly to Ricard, 20^. And they
were in peaceful seisin until, immediately after the death of Alice,
Ricard and Simon, with the others disseised him. And also that
such feoffment of said rent made to him by Ricard, who was in
peaceful seisin by feoffment of Alice, who held it by hereditary
succession, is sufficient title and specialty to him to hold the rent for
term of his life. And he prays judgment.
Simon, asked what he wishes to ansAver to the specialty which John
puts forward, answers nothing to this; but says, as before, that the
tenement out of which tlie rent arises is outside the feoff" of John,
where he cannot distrain ; and John does not show any special deed
by which he can claim anything in said rent, and so assise ought not
to be therefor. Let the truth be enquired by assise.
The Jurors say that one Roger de Croumbe held said tenements of
Sylyok, and other lands in Palmei'eston, who enfeoffed the
Prior of the house of S. John Dublin, of his lands in
Palmereston, rendering to Roger and his heirs, 5 marks
40f?. yearly ; and after the death of Roger, one Alice
de Crombe, his daughter, entered as his lieir, and was in seisin of
said rent, and of said lands in Sylyok, for many years. Afterwards
Alice, wishing to promote Ric. Athelard, her bastard son, enfeoffed
him of all said lands and tenements, who demised them to John de
Hacthe and Alice whom John afterwards married, to hold for their
lives, rendering yearly to Ricard 20.s. They held the land many years.
Afterwards Alice lying on her death bed, and she and John, doubting
that if it should happen that she should die, Ricard being out of seisin
of said tenements, that Benedict de Hauberge, chief lord of the tene-
ments, would take them into his hand, as his escheat, because Ricard

Dublin ^^^ ^^^^ instance of Henry Onred, taken and detained in the King's
prison, stating that he and Geoffrey Luterel were bound to Geoffrey
de Morton, in two lasts of hides, by recognizance made before the
Mayor of the city of Dublin and the King's clerk for taking acknow-
ledgments of debts under the Statvite of Merchants ; and G . Luterel
fully satisfied the debt ; Geoffrey de Morton (although the seal of G.
L. appended to the writing, had, in name of acquittance, been taken
off) caused Henry to be takau for said debt, by John le Sergeaunt,
mayor of said city, and imprisoned. The Sheriff was commanded
that, if Henry find sufficient mainpernors, he cause him to l)e delivered
from the prison, and that he summon G. de Morton to be here to
prosecute his complaint against Henry.
The parties come. And Geoffrey (asked if he have anything to say
wherefore Henry should not be delivered from prison b}- said satisfac-
tion), acknowledges that Henry, with Geoffrey Luterel, were bound
to him under the Statute of Merchants, for said hides, each for the
whole. And because Geoffrey did not receive satisfaction at the terms
contained in the writing, he brought it, sealed with the seal of the
King and of Henry, to John le Sergeant, Mayor of said city, before
whom the debt was acknowledged, protesting that payment of the debt
was not made, and praying justice according to the Statute. Which
Mayor, having received the letter, took Henry and committed him to
gaol, according to the Statute. And he prays that he be recommitted,
to be kept according to the Statute, as he does not show any special
deed or acquittance for the payment.
Henry acknowledges the obligation, but says that Geoffrey Luterel
satisfied it. And as acquittance, (n'offroy de Morton, who liad said
letter sealed Avith the seal of the King and of Henry, and Geoffrey L.,
as the Statute requires, took off the seal of Geoft'rey L. and gave it to
him. And he i)rays judgment, if Geoffrey de M. can exact anything
of said debt by such letter cancelled by himself as aforesaid : or can
require his iiiqirisonment for that cause.
Geoffrey de Morton says that Geoffrey L. and Henry acknowledged
the debt, each for the whole. By which he demanded the whole
debt before the Mayor against Henry, as he was entitled to do. The
Mayor, having inspected the letter with the seal of Henry and of
the King, called Henry before him ; and showing no acquittance,

Tanner and Margery his wife, held 20 acres of land in Lekno, in dower
of Margery, of the inheritance of Peter, William having no respect to
the fealty" which he did to Peter by his guardian, for lands which he
holds of him, procured one Roger Curtois, his palfreyman, and Roger
and William Braundon, his kinsmen and parceners, to implead
Thomas and Margery of said tenements ; by parley between them that
master William should have the tenements, if they should be gained
by the writ De avo which they sued before the Justices of the Bench,
DubHn.
And because Thomas and Margery, before the Justices, vouched
Peter, then under age, to warranty, the plea remained sine die until
the age of Peter.
Afterwards master W^illiam seeing that his intention could not be
carried out, wrought with Thomas and Margery, so that he obtained
from them the estate Avliich they had, to wit, the dower of Margery ;
and procured again Roger and the others to sue a like writ against
himself; bv conspiracy and collusion between them. And W^illiam in
pleading answered that their grandfather did not die seised, and pro-
cured a jury of the country to say against himself. And when judg-
ment was made for them "against master William, and they were in
seisin, master William sought that he should be enfeoffed of the tene-
ments by Roger and the others. And he prays remedy.

who is under age, procured him to sue it.

de Morton, lately in court before the King, was arraigned of 20 tuns
of wine, forfeited to the King on account of discharging 13 tuns
from a ship at Dalkeye without making the King's prise, in which
ship were 20 tuns. Geoffrey said that by the custom of those parts,
all merchants, with ships laden with wine passing by Dalkeye to
Dublin, may freely unload the ships proportionably of certain tuns
of wine, for the purpose of lightening the ships, without giving the
King's prise there, so that he satisfy the prise at Dublin, or within
the precinct of its liberty : and that the King's prise for those 13
tuns was duly satisfied at Karnan, within the precinct of same
liberty. Wogan is to enquire of the truth, and make return under

Adam de IToueth, Ric. de Cruj^s, Adam Dawe, Walter Lumbard,
Henry Costentyn, John Halfheuede, Robert de Willeby, John Samp-
son, Adam de Hereford, and Walter Keppok, who say that no great
ships, laden with wines or other merchandize, can come to land in
the port of Dublin, until in part they are discharged. On account
of which, by custom hitherto obtained, siich ships laden with wines,
in coming to Dublin, are accustomed to stop at Dalkeye, and there
in part unload. And the wines so unloaded are brought by small
vessels to the city of Dublin, without paying any prise there, and
without the taker of the King's prises marking any wines in name
of prise there. And after such unloading, the ship, with the remain-
ing wines, is accustomed to go to Carnan, which is within the pre-
cinct of the city. And the taker of such prises is accustomed to take

at his choice tlie King's prise, either of the wine left in the ship, or of
that before unloaded, whether that shall be in the cellar or not. So
that no sale be made of such wines before the prise shall be taken,
without licence of the taker of the prise. And they say that Geoffrey
de Morton sold no wines before the taking of the King's prise.
And said writ, sewn to this inquisition, is delivered to Geoffrey de

commanded to take the advowson into the King's hand, and sum-
mon him to be here. And the Sheriff testifies the day of the
taking and that he was summoned. Judgment that Jordan re-
cover his seisin ; and the Prior in mercy.
And at the suit of the Prior, comjalaining by . . . de Romen-
eye, his general attorney, that there was error in the record and
process; Jordan being summoned now comes.
And the Prior complains that the justices erred, in that, where it
is contained in the Statute of the King concerning writs delivered
in the Eyre, that justices in their eyres should fix a term of a fort-
night or a month, less or greater according as the county should be
greater or less, within which term it should be publicly proclaimed
that all who wished to deliver writs should deliver them before that
term, and after it no writ should be received, which if it should be
received, process made by that writ should be annulled. And writs,
according to the form of the Statute, in said eyre were proclaimed
about the feast of the Nativity of S. John the Baptist, Jordan sued
his writ after said proclamation, to wit, the 12th of October following.
And that writ was delivered to the Sheriff, and by process had before
the Justices itinerant, Jordan recovered his seisin of the advowson,
by default of the Prior. And he prays that the error be corrected,
and justice done him.
And Jordan acknowledges that he sued his writ on the 12th
October after the proclamation of the receiving of writs. But this
was granted to him of grace.
And Walter Lenfaunt chief justice of said Eyre being present'
in court, records that proclamation was made in said eyre, that all
who wished to deliver writs should deliver them within the octaves
of Holy Trinity, and thenceforward no writ should be received.
Therefore it is adjudged that the record be wholly revoked and the
judgment annulled ; and that the Prior have again his seisin of the
advowson, as he had on the day when the error arose, and the mercy
which he has paid. And Jordan in mercy.

The Sheriff returns that he has in his hands the money, but dare
not send it by any messenger on account of the dangers of the roads.
Therefore he is commanded to have it in the octave of S. Hilary.
The Sheriff was commanded of two stacks of wheat and oats of
Anastasia daughter of William, value 100s., which he lately took,
and delivered to Thomas David, Oliver Broun, and W.
Blound to sell, but has not found buyers ; and of other lands and
chattels of Anastasia, and likewise of Hugh Maunsel, William son
of William, and Eudo son of William son of William, to levy 100s.
for Will, de Bourn and his fellow clerks, assignees of Thomas
Maunsel, of 10^., which Thomas in this court before Edm. le
Botiller, at Cassell, recovered against them.
And the Sheriff returns that as to the goods of Anastasia, before
taken in the time of John Rys, sheriff, the present sheriff can find
out nothing, unless that Anastasia did her will with them. Nor
have she, Hugh, William, or Eudo, other goods from which the
money can be levied, except those which William son of William
has in Kennath in Elycarwill in such a march where no Serjeant can
do any office.
And because the court cannot admit such answer by the sheriff,
that he may be excused because his Serjeants did nothing. And
likewise because it appears to the court that the Sheriff formerly
acknowledged that he took into the King's hand a horse of William
son of William value 10 marks, which he delivered to the valuers of
the horse, to answer for the money, according to the form of the
Statute, because the horse was not worth said money : of which 10
mai'ks he answei's for lOOs. by another writ. By which it is mani-
fest that the Sherift''s answer is false, in this, that he now returns
that Will, son of William has nothing except in a sti'ong march,
whei-eas two and half marks remain with him from said 10 marks.
Therefore he is in heavy mercy, to wit, Henry Haket : and it is as-
sessed by the court at 20.v.
The Sheriff is commanded as before, to cause Will de Bourn and
his fellows to have the 2i marks, in part payment of the 100s., and
to levy the residue as before.

the Cross, and in which [Mabilla], daughter of said Isabella, lay
pregnant in the half of the house so recovered. Fearing that Adam
would remove her from the place in which she lay, she enjoined her
husband to go to Adam, and induce him not to move her. Who at
the request of the husband entered the house by a door which is of
the part of the fief of the King, to speak with said Mabilla, and to
comfort her that she should not fear being moved, Isabella knowing
nothing of his coming. But when she found that Adam had en-
tered, she believing he had come to take seisin, said to him that he
should not go out by the fief of the King, and she shut the door with

Maurice Ohessan complains of Ph. OKelly, that whereas brother
Hugh Ohessan formerly abbot of Mellifonte, by assent of his con-
vent, granted by his letters patent to Maurice for his life, reason-
able sustenance to be received in said abbey, to wit, food and drink
to the value of 2d. a day, and one robe of the price of one mark, oi
one mai'k, yearly, of which he was in peaceful seisin for two years,
And likewise Hugh the abbot, with assent, by his letters patent,
granted to Maurice that he should be free, and towards the Abbot
and convent, of as free condition as any Englishman among the
Abbot's tenants. And likewise Hugh the abbot, by assent, by his
letters patent, demised to Maurice certain lands of the Abbot in
Graungegeth, for term of 60 years, and he was thereof in peaceful
seisin for 14 years. Philip, with brother Thomas then abbot of Mel-
lifonte, on Monday after the feast of S. Bartholomew last, came to
the town of Graungegeth, and took out of the house of Ph. Broun
a chest of Maurice's, in which were said letters patent with other
things, and broke it, and tore the writings. Likewise on same day
they ejected him from a carucate of land there which he held by said
commission, and took his goods found there, to wit, the crop of 20

(20s.), 6 oxen (40s.), 2 bullocks (i mark), 3 cows (20s.), 9 pigs (9s.),
25 sheep (20s.), to his damage of" 60/.
Philip comes. As to the taking and breaking of the chest and
the writings, and corn, he says he is not guilty. And he piits him-
self on the country. Issue joined. As to the taking of the animals,
he says that Maurice slew one of the hihei-mci of the Abbot, for
which he took Maurice, as his hiherniciis, and imprisoned him : and
Maurice broke prison and escaped. And Thomas the abbot com-
manded Philip his man to come with him to Graungegcth, to attach
the goods of Maurice. And so Philip, by command of the Abbot
his lord, went with him to the town of Graungegeth, and, as the
Abbot's Serjeant, took Maurice's cattle and drove them to the abbey,
and delivei-ed them to the Abbot.
Maurice says that Philip cannot avow the taking of the cattle for
said cause, because he cannot in this case be in better condition than
the Abbot if he were present. And as the Abbot could not avow
the taking against Maurice who, as to him, is free, by the deed of
his predecessor and convent ; but it would only be competent to
him to have action to demand payment for the death of his hiherni-
cits, by the King's writ, as is the custom : so likewise Philip cannot.
And he prays judgment.
And because Philip took the cattle, as Serjeant of the Abbot, he
cannot make full avowry, without the Abbot, upon Maurice the
tenant of the Abbot. And likewise because it does not appear to
■ the Court, whether Maurice had such writing of liberty, or not ; let
the truth be enquired by the country.
The Jurors say that one Walter Knap Jubtniiciis, who was the
common shepherd of the sheep of the villata of Graungegeth, who
kept certain cows of his own, with said sheep, let them go into the
several pasture in the demesne lands of Maurice. Who learning
that the cattle were doing damage, went there to impound the cattle.
And Walter ran to him, and deforced him, and threw stones at
him. And so striving together, Walter struck Maurice with a staff,
and immediately Maurice struck him back with a hatchet on the
head, and he forthwith died. For which the Abbot took Maurice and
imprisoned him, from which he escaped. On which the Abbot taking
Philip with him, went to Graungegeth, where the goods of Maurice
were. And the Abbot, without Philip, entered the house of Ph.
Broun, where was a chest in which things of Maurice were enclosed.
And Philip, by command of the Abbot, went to the place where
Maurice's cattle were, and took them, and drove them to the Abbey,
and delivered them to the Abbot, who sold them in divers places
Asked if Maurice had such letters patent, they say Yes. But that
Thomas the abbot, without Philip, took the chest and broke it and
did his will with the writings. They say also, as to the taking of the
crop, that Philip is not culpable, but that Thomas the abbot took the
crop of 20 acres of Maurice.
Afterwards Philip made fine for his trespass by 40s. by pledc^e of
said Maurice Ohcssan and Ric. Taaf.
The same Maurice appears against Thomas the abbot, of same
))lca. And he comes not. And the Sheriff was comniandcd to
attach him. And he returned that he is distrained by 12 oxen and
4 afers of the Abbot's at Knouthe, value of each 4s., and by 20

crannocs of oats in a stack (value each cran. 2s. 6d.), which are given
to the custody of Nich. sou of Nicholas of Termeffedok, and Ph.
OKelly. Therefore those chattels are forfeit. And the Sheriff is
commanded to distrain brother Thomas abbot of Mellifonte, by all
his lands, and have him to answer with Ph. OKelly, at the octaves
of S. Hilary.
Afterwards, at that day, Maurice appears against Thomas the
abbot; and he comes not. And the Sheriff returns that brother
Thomas is not found, and has not land, because he is deprived of
the seat of abbot. And because he has not executed the precept,
especially as Thomas did [the act] as abbot of said house, so that he
ought to distrain him by the goods of the abbey ; therefore he is in
heavy mercy, to wit, Luke de Belyng.
Afterwards Maurice gives to the King half a mark for licence to
withdraw from his plaint, by pledge of Ralph now abbot of Melli-
fonte. And they agree.
And the agreement is that Ralph the abbot (in exoneration of his
house, that the great distraint run not on the goods of the abbey
in the name of brother Thomas, for his default), agrees that he shall
render to Maurice 111. 14s., at which the goods were valued by the
jury. And as to the writings, because Ralph does not know the
form of the writings, nor what writings Maixrice had, he grants that
by oath of good men of those parts, and of monks of his house, he
will enquire of the truth fully. And he will make him new writings
according to the form of his others, as by said inquisition may be
certified, by the feast of Pentecost next. And if he do not so, then
a jury shall come in the octaves of Holy Trinity, to make known in
form aforesaid.
Afterwards Maurice in court assigns to John de Appleby clerk, 5s.
of said 111. lis.
Afterwards, on Tuesday the vigil of S. Peter in cathedra, a. r.
xxxv., at Lymeric, at the instance of Ric. de Burgo earl of Ulster,
suit of the King's peace is pardoned to Thomas late abbot, of said
trespass.
Afterwards Ralph the abbot gives to the King, one mark of fine
for the issues.. And this fine is so small, because said distraint was
made, on account of Thomas late abbot, who was deprived long be-
fore said distraint.
Afterwards Maurice in court assigns to John de Kermerdyn, Ser-
jeant pleader, 5s. of said 111. 14s.

seised David de la Haye, of his freehold in Shyghtrym, five marks

parts of two carucates of land of the tenement of which the rent

And David cannot deny this, and prays licence to withdraw from
his writ and he has it.
And because some of the defendants attached in person come by
bailiffs : John de Tuyt and Teffania attached by Henry de Carrik
and John Man : Adam de Tuyt by John de Tuyt and Henry de
Carrik ; and Roesia wife of Hugh de Molys, by Henry de Carrik and

return at the quinzaine of S. Michael.
Afterwards before said quinzaine, at the suit of William, com-
plaining that the Sheriff, and his ministers, and subserjeants, had
levied the 20 marks fully from his lands and chattels to the use of
Peter ; the Sheriff was commanded by writ of the Justiciar that, hav-
ing taken sufficient security from William to pay, at said quinzaine
of S. Michael, to Peter and his assigns what should be in arrear of
said 20 marks, if the goods taken should not be sufficient : he should
supersede the making execution of the writ.
At which day the Sheriff returned that execution of the writ
ceased by said last mandate. And that Will, son of Thomas le
Blount, Geoffrey Mynour, Ralph de la Sale, and Geoffrey Haket,
are pledges of William de la Sale to pay.

Membrane 18 — cont. loub.
The Sheriff also was commanded to attach the Seneschal of the
liberty, whom the King commanded to execute it ; and have him to
answer the King and John.
And the Sheriff returned that he commanded John de Penbrok,
King's Serjeant of the cross of Ossory, who answers that the goods
of Nicholas, before taken by the Seneschal, are safely kept, because
he found no buyers or threshers for them. And Nicholas has no
other goods in the liberty, except the crop of 50 acres sown with
wheat, value 40^/. each acre, which he took into the King's hand for
the debt, and for which he has yet found no buyers.
And John, as well for the King as for himself, appears against
the Seneschal, and he conies not. And the Sheriff' returned that the
Seneschal, to wit, Fulk de Fraxineto, is attached by Ric. Baret and
Thomas Matheu : therefore they in mercy.
And at the instance of John, the Sheriff is commanded not to
omit, on account of the liberty, to deliver to John or his attorney,
by reasonable price, the goods taken, in part payment of the debt,
and to levy the residue: and to make return in the octaves of S.
Hilary.
Afterwards, at that day, the Sheriff returns that all the goods, be-
fore presented as taken, are safely kept, because no one came in the
name of John de Hothum to receive them.
Also he returns that he commanded the Seneschal of Catherlagh,
who answers that he took into the hand of the King, for said debt,
the crop of 120 acres sown with wheat and oats, value each 40(7. ,
18 oxen {h mark each), 12 afers (3-.), 24 cows (5.s\), for which he has
not found bviyers.
Therefore he is commanded to deliver the goods by reasonable price
to John, to the amount of the debt, and to levy the residue, if any ;
and to make return on the Monday after Mid Lent.
At which day the Sheriff did nothing, nor did he send the writ.
Therefore at the instance of John, the Sheriff is commanded as be-
fore ; and to make return in the octaves of Holy Trinity. And let
him be there to hear his judgment.
Afterwards the Sheriff of Catherlagh is commanded, of the goods Catherlagli.
before taken by the Seneschal of sanie liberty, as of other lands in
his bailiwic, to levy the money for John ; and to make return in the
octaves of Holy Trinity.
Whereas lately before the Justiciar at Catherlagh, in the pre- DuMiu.
sence of the seneschals of the liberties of Weysford, Kilkenny and
Catherlagh, and the coimtry people, as well of those liberties, as of
other parts of Leinster, as well free tenants as others, for the utility
of the state, it was agreed and ordained that any of the men at
arms who shovild lose his horse in fighting the Irish felons of the
mountains of Leinster, in a feat of arms, the commimity of the men,
as well of liberty as county, in the borders of the marches of which,
such horse was lost, shall return the price of the horse, to the value
of lOA to him who so lost it.
And Will. Dunheued lost a horse of the value of 20/. in the cross
of the county . . . .in the parts of Balymor, in fighting the
Irish felons of the mountains.
The Sheriff was commanded, if it appear to him to be so, of the
community of the cross in said parts and the parts adjoining, to
levy 107. for said William, according to said ordinance.

The Sheriff was also commanded to attach the Bailiff, and have
him to answer the King and William, because the writ sent to him
is not executed.
And the Sheriff returns that he commanded the Bailiff of S.
Sepulchre to execute the mandate. Who answered that it appeared
in the court of Balymor, before the Seneschal, that the horse was
not lost in defence of the country, but in going to the taking of a
prey from the Irish, for his advantage, without assent of the
counti'y. And that Thomas de London bailiff of S. Sepulchre was
attached by Roger the clerk of Rathfernan, and Robert Warde.

Dublin. Geoffrey de Brandewode and John de Brandewode were attached
to answer Geoffrey Sauuage, of a plea that when Geoffrey S. found
feeding in his several pasture at Balykene, 3 cows, 2 heifers, 4 calves,
6 afers and 30 sheei^, and impounded them in his park at Ballykone,
Geoffrey de Brendewode and John, on Wednesday, after the Nativity
of S. Mary, broke the park and took the cattle and drove them away,
and assaulted Geoft'rey S. and would have slain him if he had not
been rescued by the aid of Jordan Laual and Hugh Maghan ; to
Geoffrey Sauuage's damage of 10/.
And G. de B. and John come, and say that they did no injury and
pray that it be enquired by the country. Issue joined
The Jurors say that G. de B. had an hibcrnicus by najne Geoffrey
McWyther, to whom he sent John in autumn last., enjoining the
liibcniiriiA to send one of his liousehold (faniilia) to the harvest of
G. de B. And the hihc/ nicii.-i answered John: I and my household
liave SO' much labour in the service ol G. de B. our lord, in divers his
works and labours, that I cannot bear this more, nor will bear it
henceforth. And at ler-gth John going away, and taking with him
a maid servant of the Jiibernicus with a sickle, to the harvest of
G. de B., G. McWythyr the hibernicus enijoiiLed his wife and house-
hold to drive all his cattle out of the fief of G. de B., to the land
of Geoffrey Sauuage who. did not love G. de B. and his people. And
they did so. And coming to the land of G. S. they drove the cattle
into a croft of G. S., below his garden at Balykene. And the wife
of G. McW. went to G. S., where he was with the reapers in the field,
and related to him all things which were done in the premises; asking
34 EDWARD I. 327
Membrane 19 — cont. 1306.
him to receive G. McW. the hibcrnicus, his household and possessions,
into his protection and defence a.gainst G. de B. And on this, G. S.
said to her and her household: Pvit your cattle in my park, to be
safely kept there. And they did so. This being done, G. de B.
came to the house of G. S. And finding no one in the house except
the wife of G. S., said to her: Woman why have you impounded my
cattle ? What harm have they done ? And she answered : They have
done no harm that I know. "^ And he said: Have them therefore
delivered to me. And she answered : Take them for me ; for I do
not meddle in such things. And G. B. drove the cattle out o-f the
park by the gate by which they entered. And G. S. who was hidden
in the house, heard all that was said between his wife and G. B.
He soon after went out, and followed G. B. saying to him: Allow
those cattle to be brought back to my park ; because I will not suffer
you to take them away with you now. And G. B., fearing greater
injury would happen to him, withdrew, arid left the cattle there.
And G. S. had them brought back to hisi park. And John de B.
coming there saw G. S. and G. B. disputing, and understanding that
G. S. had done some injury to G. B. his cousin, having drawn his
sword, would have struck G. S. But G. B., Jordan, and Hugh, pre-
vented him; so that then gTeater damage was not done.
And the Jurors, asked whether G. S. caused the cattle to be im-
pounded for damage done in his several pasture, or on account of
maintaining G. McW. an hihernicus against G. B. his lord, say, Not
for such damage, but to maintain the hihernicus against his lord.
And because John drew his sword for the purpose of injuring G. S.,
against the i>eace, it is adjudged that John be committed to gaol.
And G. S. take nothing by his plaint, but be in mercy for false
claim.
Afterwards John made fine, as appears below.
John Lengieys v. John de Brendewode. It is found by the Jviry
that John B., meeting John L. wishing to go in to speak with his
... in Thomaston Laxiel, addressed him with insulting words . . .
how he wished tO' go. And John L. answering: I will go in this path
or outside the field . . . which I may find the readiest. John B. said
to him : Neither in the path, nor in the field, will I permit it. And
immediately, with a staff, badly struck J. L and knocked him down,
and having drawn J. L.'s sword would have struck him with it on the
head, but that Joi'dan Lauel, who came up, prevented it. And
Jordaai separated them. And John B. carried away John L.'s

King's hand by minority of the heirs. Certain lands held in dower
of thoise inheritances are noAv in the King's Jiands, and he has granted

at the Cammys, Mornolk, Hynchecoulcass and Molaghnumches, with-
out suit, but doing 5s. of royal service at the castle of Roscommon,
as often as it shall be proclaimed. And they are worth yearly, in all
issues, 10s., to wit. each villata 40c/. He held no other lands of the
King, or of any other in Ireland. Stephen de Valle is his next hear,
and was of the age of 21 years, about the feast of the Nativity of the
Lord a. r. xxxii. And on this came Stephen, and offers" to the
King 100s., to pardon the proving of age, and to have seisin, be-
cause the land of Connacht is in these days at war, so that the with-
drawal of men out of those parts is full of danger.
And because- it appears, by view of the body of said Stephen, that
he is of full age, credit is given to the jurors of the inquisition. And
it is granted to him by said fine, by pledge of Peter son of Gilbert de

Wogan caused William to be called before him in Ireland, to answer
Nigel. And because pleas on such defamations, which it is said

he, long before said plea was begun, and all the timei that the plea
was pending, dwelt in England, by which he could not make any
conspii-acy in Ireland, as is imputed to him. The King considering
that for said cause the plea should not be determined in Ireland,

April 9. Pleas of Parliament, at Dublin, before John Wogan, Justiciar,
IN the quinzaine of Easter.
Englanrl. The King sends his writ : Edward etc. to Wogan etc. and Walter
de la Haye, escheator. Robert Bagod prayed by petition before the
King and council, that whereas Nicholas formerly archbishop of
Ardemagh, with consent of the chapter of his church of Ardemagh,
gave by his charter to Robert, for his service, 100.^. rent, for the life
of Robert, in the towns of Balycantel, Balytraa and Balymone ;
Walter, after the death of the Archbishop, took the rent into the
King's hand, because they made the gift without the King's licence:
the petitioner prayed that the King would grant that he may hold
the rent for his life. If it appear to Wogan and Walter that the
premises are true, they are to deliver it to Robert, without preju-
dice to anyone, to be held as aforesaid. Teste at Lanrecost, 21 Feb.
a. r. XXXV.
The cause having been heard in council, it appears that the
Treasurer and barons of the Exchequer, hearing the account of the
Escheator of the i.ssues of the temporalities of the archbishopric, while
the see was vacant, charged the Escheator with the issues, not having
respect to such assignments of rent, in name of annual rent or pension.
Therefore Robert is told to sue a writ De roinpefenfi .^in/r/esfione, if he
will. And by grace it is granted to him that he may receive said rent
from the time of said death, first giving security in the Exchequer
that he will answer to the King for his receipts from that time to the
morrow of S. Michael next, vmless in the meantime he can acquire
a remedy.
Melvfouiit.
Meatli. Petition is heard of the Abbot of Mcllifonte complaining that the
Loutli.^ ministers of the King have taken into the King's hand all his pois-
sessions, on account of which he cannot make advantage of his church
and convent, nor pay the tithes with which his abbey is charged.
And the tinrth being understood of the intollerable controvei'sies and
contentions now continually had between many monks, with very
many hired men at arms, from the deisiro of obtaining the highest
place (rulmen), that each of them would be abbot, by ousting his
adversary, as well by conspiracies with other abbots, by thoise desirous
of such honour, each one in tuna with his accomplices. By which

the: abbey, which is of the advowsou and patronage of the King, is
almost destroyed ; its laud alienated to divers people ; and its goods
dissipated. And also it appears to the court that many abbots of
other houses are by the Cistercian chapter overthrown on account of
the maintaining of said ambitious persons. It is agreed that the
temporalities of said abbey be taken into the hand of the King, and
that a custos be assigned by advice of the Treasurer and barons of the
Exch^uer, who shall find reasonable sustenance, as well for those
who act as abbot and prior, as for the other monks, and also the
con versi of same house, and the others of the household ; and for the
rest he sliall answer in tho Exchequer until the King othei-wise
ordain.
The truth being understood concerning the alienation which the Limerick.
Abbot de Magio makes continually of the tenements' and goods of the
abbey, and chiefly, in hatred of the English tongue, to maintain that
no monks of England may dwell there, as was accustomed. It is
agreed that the Sheriff take into the King's hand all lands alienated
by the Abbot of said house, and deliver them to Mich. 1© Deueneys
to keep in the hand of the King until the coming of the Justiciar
to those parts, that the Justiciar having then enquired more fully
of the truth may cause what is right to be done.
Petition heard of the friars minor of Ross, praying delivery to them Catheilagli.
of 20 oaks which Roger Bygod earl of Norfolk, while he was lord of
Catherlagh gave to them at Polmontagh, and which they by the
Earl's licence, while he lived, caused to be cut down : It is agreed
that the Sheriff be directed to cause the oaks to be delivered to them.
Petition heard of Robert bishop of Ferns ccmplaining that, whereas Dublin
in the vigil of Easter a. r. xxxiii. at Tuylagh, the temporalities of Ferns,
the bishopric were rendered to him, by Edm. le Botiller, then locum
tenens of the Justiciar : and by writ under testimony of said locum
tenens, directed to the Escheator, for delivery of the temporalities
to Robert then Elect confirmed, delivery was given on said Satur-
day : the Bishop is now distrained to render to the King the rents
and other issues of the temporalities of said term of Easter. It is
granted that, because it aj^pears to the court that the temporalities
were so rendered to him, he be quit by a fine of 40/., which he gives
to the King, by pledge of Nich. Maunsell clerk, Adam le Rede, Regi-
nald de Bristoll clerk, Andrew Tyrel, Hugh Waryng, John le
Hacche, Thomas de Apetot, and Robert le Blound. And the Bishop
and his pledges undertook to indemnify the Council towards the
King, if the King should not accept the fine.

Louth Petition heard of Thomas son and heir of Gerald son of John,
burgess of Dragheda on the ,side of Uriel, complaining that whereas
Gerald acqviired divers tenements in said town, and was of the same
liberty when he died ; the Justiciar, understanding that Gerald was
lilhernlciis, caused to be seised into the hand of the King, all goods
and chattels, lands and tenement®, which were of Gerald; whereas
by the custom used hitherto' as weill in, said burgh as in other cities
and burghs in this land, hihernici made burgesses, are free in the

of Roger le Bj^god late earl mai-shal, in the baronies of Old Ross,
New Ros, and Harvey's Island {Insula Tleruicii), except the four pleas,

she was in seisin imtil the death of said Roger ; that the Escheator
of Ireland who took the Earl's lands into the King's hand as an

baronies and vills to answer to her bailiffs in such pleas, nor co^lld
her bailiffs have cognizance of such 2>leas, as by assignment of her

John de Houton, of a plea of trespass. And he returned that Ricard

Court at 40f/. And the sheriff is commanded, as before, to attach
said Ricard, and Bernard his brother, tO' answer John, together with
John Keu chaplain, of co. Meath, of said plea.
Dubliu. Walter de Kenley complains of William son of John de Galbarry,
for that whereas he holds of William the tenements of Kilbryde and
the Naungre, paying to William 20/., to wit, the true value yearly;
William does not allow Walter 8 marks, which he expended for one
horse equipped and one hobeler kept for said tenements, from the
feast of S. Peter ad Vincula last, to the feast of S. Luke following,
the Justiciar then fighting the Irish felons of the mountains of
Leinster, which expenses Walter laid out by precept of the Justiciar,
and he proffers a writing under the name of William, which testifies
the demise. And he jarays remedy.
And William comes, and acknowledges the writing. But says that
by the form of the writing he is not bound to make the allowance.
Because it is contained that Walter shall acquit the tenements
during the term, of all payments, customs and charges, Avhich of
right ought to belong to the tenements. And as such ordinance and
assessment was exacted by reason of said tenements, and from the
tenements, he prays judgment.
And Walter says that such assessment was made by the Justiciar
on account of common war, which is not ruled by law, and the
assessment so made by the Justiciar, as well upon said tenements as
upon other tenements of those parts, is not any charge of right
belonging to the tenements. And as W^illiam does not deny that
he received from Walter yearly the true value of the tenements, and
this assessment ought to be levied of the value of the tenements, he
prays judgment.
And because it appears to the Court that it is more fittino' that
such contribution be made by William who receives the true^'value
of the tenements, than by Walter who receives nothing clear from
them, an.d the assessment is not a contribution of right belonging
to the tenements, but of great necessity on account of common war;
it is adjudged that William allow to Walter said 8 marks in his farm',
if AValter can show that he expended them, by account to be made
between them.

late abbess, caused herself to be elected abbess, and, by William

of land in Covilmeygne and Brouneston, within which are the tene-
ments of which James complains that he is disseised. And James
was in seisin for 6 years and more. Afterwards Milo', at request of
Nicholas, granted to Nicholas, the tenements which he could find to
be beyond two carucates of land there. By pretext of which grant
Nicholas caused said twO' carucates of land to be measured, and by
his own act entered the tenements of which view is made, appro-
priating to himself the freehold of them. And they say that Nicholas
enfeoffed Eustace his son of 17a. of said tenements. Who died seised.

Geoffrey says that Ricard who owed said rent to Geoffrey, had
pardon of it for his life from Geoffrey. After whose death, Geoffrey
distrained for it. And John caused the distraint to be replevied:
and so he disseised him.
John says that Geoffrey gi-anted the rent to Ricard his father, and

her former husband. ()do says he claims nothing except domimum.
And they made no disseisin; and put themselves in the assise.
The Jurors say that David de Barry died seised of the manor.
After whose death, said Odo, of whom the manor is held, entered
claiming escheat in it, supposing that David died without heir.
Afterwards changing his position, he held the manor claiming custody
by reason of the minority of said Isabella, cousin and heir of David.
And when he was impleaded by Ricard before the Justiciar, he said
that he claimed nothing except in name of custody by reason of the
minority of Isabella. Afterwards Odo rendered the manor to
Ricard, saving the right of everyone. Who gave the manor
to John de Barry and Beatrix. Who gave it to William, except 60a.
which Isolda widow of David holds in dower, by assignment of Odo
at the time when he claimed to hold the custody. So they say that
Ricard and Odo disseised Isabella.
Judgment that Isabella recover against William and the others,
except Isolda, her seisin of the manor, except the 60a. Odo and
Ricard in mercy. Because John de Barry, Beatrix, and William
had not entry by disseisin, but by feoffment, they are quit of mercy.

The men defendants come. Stephen de Sharesfeld answers for
Agnes. Henry answers as tenant, and says that he had entry by
Agnes. Agnes acknowledges this, and says she had entry by Maurice
de Hareford. Maurice acknowledges this, and says that one John
son of Gilbert, his father, whose heir he is, acquired the tenements
by the gift of said Philip, and died seised : after whose death Maurice
de Hareford entered as son and heir. Philip acknowledges this, and
says that assise ought not to be, because he acquired the tenements
from said Maurice Dunre, to hold for the term of 20 years. And
afterwards Maurice Dunre remised and quitted claim to Philip, all
his right and claim in said tenements for ever. And he proffers the
writing of quit claim, as follows :

and did no injury or disseisin, and put themselves on the assise.
Maurice Dounre says that said writing ought not to delay the
taking of the assise, because it is not his deed, but he acknowledges
that Philip had said tenements by his demise, for term of 20 years,
and because he understood that Philip wished to alienate the tene-
ments in fee to John son of Gilbert, he entered and held them until
Philip and the others disseised him. Issue joined.

James le Deueneys. They in mercy; and let th© assise be taken
against him by default. Henry was dead. Matthew and Griffin say
that they claim nothing and made no disseisin. Ph. le Noble answers
for Maurice as his bailiff, and says that assise ought not toi be against
him, because he does not hold fully the tenement whereof Gilbert says
the rent arises, and of which view is made, because one Thomas son of
Philip holds 30 acres, and Reginald Russell holds 12a. of it, and they
held it on the day of suing the writ, 10 April in this year. He jDrays
that it be enquired by assise.
Gilbert says that such exception proposed by a bailiff' is not to be
admitted in court, because a bailiff should be admitted to nothing
else than to excuse the injury of his lord.
And the Justiciar, willing to be more fully certified on this, pro-
ceeded to enquire the truth by the assise. And because Gilbei-t le

They all come. David le Blound answers as tenant, and as to one
messuage, 3 carucates of land, 100a. of pasture, 40s. 6r/. rent says
that the assise ought not to be, because he formerly, before John de
Ponte and Alex, de Bykenore, justices assigned, recovered them with
other tenements against Risus, David son of Alex, de Rupe, and Will,
son of Remund Beget, by assise of Novel disseisin, and he prays
judgment if assise ought to be taken upon an assise.
And as to 62 acres, he says that he had entry by
Roger de Caunteton and Lucia his wife, and Nich. le
Blund and Alice his wife. And he calls them to war-
ranty. Who warrant him, and say that assise ought not to be
taken, because thev, before John de Ponte and Alex, de Bykenore,
recovered the tenements against Mich, de Canetone, by assise of Mort
d'ancestor, of the death of Heni'y Beket, brother of Lucia and Alice,
by which assise it appeared that Henry was seised of said 62 acres,
in his demesne, when he died, and that Lucia and Alice are his heirs.
And by that recovery if Rysus or any other had any assise
of said tenements in the meantime after the death of Henry,
and before that recovery, all those seisins are annulled, because they
recovered the tenement by a more ancient right : and he prays judg-
ment if assise ought to be taken of it.
And as to 18 acres of land and lU. of meadow and 52-*. Sd. rent,
he says that he brought a writ of covenant before the Justices at
Dublin against Roger, Lucia, Nicholas and Alice, of 100 acres of
land, 2a. meadow, 2a. turbary, 200a. pasture, 52.s. Sd . rent, and a
third part of a mill. And they came and acknowledged said tene-
ments to be the right of him David, and thereof rendered 40a. of
land, 2a. meadow, and 52.^. 8^/. rent, and the third part of the mill
to David; and acknowledged the residue to be the right of David,
which residue Geoffrey son of Peter and Roesia his wife hold in dower
of Roesia, of the inheritance of Lucia and Alice, and they gi-anted
that residue to him in court. And afterwards Geoffrey and Roesia in
court came and did fealty to David for it.. And afterwards rendered
the same tO' him. And so he says that he had entry by judgment of
the King's court, and by writ of judgment, and not by disseisin.
And as to 44.*. 2c/. rent, and the third part of 2 parts of a mill,
he says that he had entry by Robert de Saunford, to hold for term
of the life of Johanna wife of said Robert, and he calls Robert to
waiTanty. Who warrants him, and says that he found Johanna his
wife seised of said tenements with others, as of her dower, of the
endowment of Henry Beket her first husband. And Johanna says
that after the death of Hem-y, she continued her seisin, and entered
in the name of dower and not by disseisin, and she prays that it be
enquired by assise.
Nich. son of Herbert and the others say nothing vdiereby the assise

And Rysus says as to one messuage, 3 carucates, 100a. pasture and
40.S. 6'-/. rent, that said recovery of David ought not to retard the
taking of this assise, for he. complains that he was disseised by a
disseisin done to him before the seisin of which David had his re-
covery.

and thei othei-s disseised him as complained ; and of this he puts him-
self on the assise. Let assise be taken ; which remains to be taken for
want of recognitors, because none came. And the Sheriff is com-
manded to have them and tot ef tales, on Saturday in the qninzaine
of S. John the Baptist, at Balachath, to' make the assise.
Afterwards at that day, at Balachath, come the parties and the
recognitors. Which jurors say that William Beket was seised of said
t-enement.s: with others, and had twO' sens, AVilliam and Henry. And
after the death of William senior, William Beket entered as his son
and heir, and assigned to Juliana de S. Michaele, wife of William
S'enior, a third part of all said t-enements in dower. And afterwards
William the son died without heir. Aft^er whose death, David son
of Alex, de Rupe, chief lord of that fee, entered in name of ward-
S!hip, by reason of the minority of Henry, brother and heir of William
Beket junior, and assig-ned to Roesia de Caunteton, wife of William
junior, a third part of the teneanents in dower. And afterwards
Henry enfeoffed Reymund Beket, of the residue which he held in
demesne, except those two dowers. And afterwards Henry died with-
out heir. And said twoi wives, Juliana de S. Michael, and Roesia de
Caunteton, never made to Reymund any fealty or intendence for
their dowers, while Henry lived, nor after his decease, nor had
Reymund any seisin of said dowers. And they say that Reymund
assigned to Johanna la Blounde wife of Henry, a third part of the
tenements which he had of the feoffment of Henry, in dower. And
Risus never had any fealty or intendence of any of said three wives,
nor any seisin of said three dowers.
And as to thei 62 acres, they say that Roger de Caunteton and
Lucia his- wife, Nicli. le Blound and Alice his wife, formerly, before
John de Ponte and Alex, de Bykenoure justices assigned, brought a
writ of assise of Mort d'ancestor, of the death of Henry Beket,
brother of said Lucia and Alice, whose heirs they were, against Mich,
de Caneton, then tenant of said tenements, who held them by feoff-
ment of one David Obathegan, who was .seised of them in fee. And
it was found by verdict of same assise, that Henry was seised of said
62 acres, in his demesne as of fee, when he died ; and that he died
after the coronation etc., and that Lucia and Alice are his next
heirs.
And they say that neither Reymund nor Risius at any time were
seised of said 62 acres, nor that Risiu.s ever was seised of said tene-
ments whereof he complains that he was disseised, as of freehold, so
that ho could be disseised.

He says that David de Bariy father of Ricard, whose heir he is, died
seised of said rent, as of fee. After whose death, Ricard entered as
heir, without making disseisin.
Robert by himself, and Walter by Walter the Welshman his bailiff,
answer as tenants of the tenement from which the rent arises, tO' wit,
Robert of a knight's fee whereof half the rent, and Walter of a
knight's fee whereof the other half arises. They say that David son
of Alex, de Rupe deceased, of whom David de Barry held said rent,
entered and took into his hand that rent, by reason of wardship, on
account of the minority of the heir of David de Barry. Afterwards
Ricard, saying that he was the heir of David de Barry, levied and
took the rent. And they say that they are ready to attorn for said
rent to whom of right they ought to attorn. They say they made no
disseisin and put themselves oil the assise.
Reymund dees not come, nor has he a bailiff. Let assise be taken

Isabella says that David son of Alexander, chief lord of the fee,
took the rent into his hand after the death of David de Barry, in
name of wardship, by reason of the minority of Isabella, and not of
Ricard, who was a bastard; because although David father of Ricard
at some time married the mother of Ricard, yet a divorce was cele-
brated between them and the sentence remained in force. She puts
herself on the assise. Let the truth be enquired by the assise.
The Jurors say that David de Barry of Moyl, immediate lord of the
tenements from which the rent arose, and mesne between the tenants
and David son of Alexander de Rupe, died seised of the rent. After
whose death David son of Alexander took intO' his hand said rent, in
name of wardship, by reason of the minority of the true heir of David
de Barry, not knowing who' his true heir was. Some told him that
Isabella was next heir, and othei-s Ricard. Afterwards when David
son of Alexander heard that Odo de Fraxineto claimed to hold the
manor of Moyl, which was David de Barry's, in name of wardship,
by reason of the minority of Isabella, then he claim.ed to have the
rent in like manner, in wardship by minority of Isabella. After-

for a sum of money; Robert de Caunteton, whose daughter Ricard
had married, came to David son of Alexander, and telling him that
Ricard was seised of the manor of Moyl by render of Odo, prevailed
on David to render to Ricard said I'ent of 5 marks, for one tun of
wine. By which render he caused himself to be seised of said rent,
taking fealty from the tenants, as heir of David -de Barry, and he
levied the rent. Afte^rwards he demised the rent to Philip father of
said Reymund, for a term of years.
Asked whether Ricard or Isabella is the next heir of David de
Barr}', they say Isabella. For although at some time the mother of
Ricard was married to David, of whom David begot Ricard, yet a
divorce was afterwards celebrated between them. Asked if David
could distrain in either of the fees for the whole rent, they say : No ;
For each fee is charged separately with half the rent.

de Carreu great-great-grandfather (fihavi) of Maurice, against whom

who enfeoffed one Ric. le Deueneys of these and other tenements, to

Robert and his heirs 20*. yearly, and doing suit to Robert's court.
Afterwards Robert enfeoffed Maur. son of Gerald, of said rent and
the dominium of the tenement, in exchange for other tenements, and
so he says that the recovery of Maurice, by default, ought not tc
discharge the tenements of the rent with which Robert the true
tenant charged them. And he prays judgment.
Maurice says that Ricard the g.-g. -grandfather died seised of the
tenements as of fee without having enfeoffed Tankard. And he
prays that this be enquired by assise. Issue joined.
The Jurors say that Ric. de Carreu g.-g. -grandfather of Maurice
died seised, as of fee, of one carucate of land, whence the rent now
arises. After whose death Raglienild inyn McCarthy, his widow,
was dowered of said carucate. And she willing to promote Ricard
her second son (jjostrmtum), gave him her said dower. And Ricard
gave said carucate in fee, to Ric. le Deueneys, to hold to him and his
heirs, of Ricard, by the service of 20s. yearly. Afterwards Ricard
enfeoffed Maurice son of Gerald, of said rent and the dominium of
the tenement, in exchange for other tenements.
Asked if Gilbert was ever seised of the rent, and if rescue was
made to him elsewhere than in said 32 acres, they say: No: but that
any rescue made to him was in said 32 acres by Thomas le Deueneys
and the others, and this by command of Maitrice.

Assise of Novel disseisin. If Ric. de Wynchedon and Thomas
Miagh disseised Peter son of Walter, of his freehold in Kilnegle-
ragh, 10 acres of land, 3a. of wood, and 2a. of land vxnder alders.
Ricard answers as tenant that he entered by hereditary succes-
sion, after the death of John de Wynchedon his father, whose
heir he is, who died seised. Which John entered by charter of
said Thomas, which he proffers. And he calls Thomas to warrant.
Who warrants, and says he made no disseisin. And he prays that

The Jurors say that Peter, at the age of 6 years, entered said
tenements, after the death of Walter his father. And afterwards
he gave them to Thomas Myagh, when he was 10 yeai-s of age.
Which Thomas enfeoffed John de Wynchedon father of Ricard,
whose heir he is, after 8 days after he had seisin. So that Ricard
did not enter by disseisin, but by hereditary succession.
Judgment that Peter take nothing by this assise, but be in
mercy for false claim.
And Peter complains that the recognitors were not sufficiently
examined in this, that the Justices did not examine them whether
Thomas Myagh was guardian of Peter, so that the tenements were
in the hand of Thomas, as guardian of Peter, at the time when
Thomas admitted he had feoffment from Peter.
Ricard says it is not necessary that the recognitors should be fur-
ther examined, because they gave a full verdict in saying that
Thomas had entry by feoffment of Peter, and not by disseisin. And
he prays judgment.
And because it appears to the Court that it behoved that the re-
cognitors of the assise should be examined on this, because of the
minority of Peter, who was only 10 years of age at the time when he
made the feoffment to Thomas, it is adjudged that the recognitors
be examined on this.
The Jurors say that Thomas was not guardian of Peter, at the
time when Peter enfeoffed him of the tenements. Judgment that
Peter take nothing by his writ, but be in mercy for false claim.

apostle in this year, at the Yoghel, assaulted Stephen, bound him

John and the others come and defend, and say that they made no
assault or ti'espass. Issue joined. Therefore let the truth be en-
quired by the country.
The Jurors say that after John Don married Basilia his wife, he
soon after went to parts beyond sea, to exercise his merchandise.
After his leaving, Stephen le Clerk came to John's house, asking
Basilia that he might be her friend. She lightly consenting, they
lay together at their will for the whole time that John was in the
parts beyond sea. Afterwards John Don returning home, it was
related to him by his neighbours and friends how Stephen le Clerk
and Basilia lay together. And John, moved with anger, forbade
Stephen any more to come to his house at the Yoghel. Afterwards
John went to the parts of Cork, on his business, and Stephen, not-
withstanding the warning, in John's absence lay with Basilia. And
John learning this spoke with John Caane, John Don's taverner,
that as soon as he could perceive that Stephen and Basilia were
lying together, he should let John know ; and the taverner promised
this. Afterwards John Don one day feigned that he was going to
Cork, and he went to the house of master Adam de Hamdone, and
not to Cork. And the same day, Stephen and Basilia supped with
Stephen le Jeofne, and after supper Stephen le Clerk came before the
door of the tavern of John Don, in which said John [Caane] was
taverner, and asked the taverner if he would give him any wine, and
the taverner [said] that he would give him one pottle of wine, and
Stephen then entered and drank with the taverner. And they so
drinking, Basilia soon after came, and entered her chamber. And
Stephen and the taverner went to Basilia's chamber. And they
being there, and a maid of Basilia's, Stephen and Basilia urged
that John the taverner and the maid should give assurance that
. they might be trusted to conceal their counsel. And Basilia gave
her maid a cow, and Stephen gave the taverner 5.9. And after-
wards Stephen put off his shoes (sotulares) intending to stay the
whole night. And the taverner perceiving this, secretly went to the

turned by night from the house of master Adam Hamdone, and was
hidden in said house, with an armed force ; and he told him all said
things. And John Don joining with him Stephen le Jeofne, John
Cane the taverner, Adam Don, and others, came to the house of
John Don, thinking to find Stephen lying with Basilia. And
Stephen le Clerk and Basilia, hearing the noise of armed men com-
ing to them, were afraid, and extinguished the candles. And
Stephen le Clerk, flying from the chamber, came through the midst
of the hall, and met John Don and the others; who took him and
wounded him and gave him three wounds on the head. And they
threw him to the ground, and having bound his hands and feet

court, again charged {carcavit) the same inquisition, after the judg-
ment was given, by which it appeared that Maux'ice detained the
tunic. By which, the same Court adjudged that Nicholas recover
the tunic, valued at bs. by the jury. Nicholas detains a horsie of the

Nicholas acknowledges that he has a horse of Maurice, but says
that the bailiff of the said court of Inchecoyn, by virtue of said judg-

not detain the horse by his own injury.

I'ecover any money against him. Judgment that Nicholas take

Nich. de Cantilupo i'. Maurice Lercedekne. It is found by the Cork.
Jury that David O Koif at one time was the hibtimicuH of said
Mam-ice; and from Maurice went to Nicholas and remained with him.
At length Maurice, before the Sheriff of Cork in his tourn, demanded
against Nicholas, said David, as his hired hihernicus. And because
it appeared by inqttisition on which they put themselves before the
Sheriff in same tourn, that Maurice did not fully pay to David his
wages; it was adjudged that Maurice take nothing by his plaint.
But because Maurice, before, gave to Andrew his sou, certain lands
where David lived, and all hibernici living in those lands; Andrew,
before said sheriff in his tourn, recovered David as his hibernicus.
And so they say that Andrew retained him by judgment of said
court, and that Maurice did not take David unjustly. Therefore it
is adjudged that Nicholas take nothing by his plaint, but be in
mercy for false claim.
Same Nicholas v. same Maurice. It is found by the jury, that
Nicholas promised Maurice aid to sue remedy tO' turn a road, which
had been extended through the midst of their lands, to their hurt.

that he was not attached because he was not found. Let assise be
taken against him by default. Philip comes, and as to 100 acres
of land, 20a. meadow and 100a. pasture, says that he had entry
by demise of the Treasurer of Ireland, by commission of the Ex-
chequer. Of the rest, he had entry by Nicholas. And he says
that Juliana de Clare, in her viduity, was seised of same in name
of custody, by the minority of said Ricard de Raleye. And
afterwards Nicholas married her, and found her seised of the
custody. And afterwards Juliana, on her death bed, bequeathed
the custody to said Nicholas her husband ; and he granted it to
Ph. Ulf, to the lawful age of Ricard de Raleye. So that Philip
did not enter by disseisin, but by demise of Nicholas. And he
prays that this be enquired by the assise.

the testament of Juliana, but by disseisin. And this he is pre-
pared to aver by 'the assise. Let the assise be taken.
The Jurors say that Juliana made no testament, but that Ricard
was in good seisin of a messuage and 100 acres of the tene-
ment, until Nicholas and the others disseised him, as he complains.
And because it appears by the assise, that Nicholas did not enter
by testament of Juliana, but by disseisin, it is adjudged that
Ricard de Raleye recover his seisin of the messuage and 100a.
With his damages; taxed by the assise at 40-^. And Nicholas and
the others in mercy for disseisin. Asked if Ricard [Ulf] was at
the disseisin, they say No. Therefore Ric. son of Ric. (su) de
Raleye in mercy for false claim against Ric. Ulf. The mercy
pardoned to Ric. son of William, because he is under age.
And at suit of Nicholas, complaining that in the record error
appears, Ric. son of Will, de Raleye, being summoned, now comes.
And Nicholas complains that the Justices erred in this, that when in
the taking of the assise, it was alleged that one William de Raleye,
father of Ricard, whose heir he is, was seised of the tenements in
his demesne as of fee, and held them of Juliana de Clare, by certain
service which gives custody according to the custom of this land.
By which, Juliana, after the death of William, entered the tenements
in name of custody, by reason of the minority of Ricard the son, and
so the fee and freehold remained in the person of Ricard the son.
35 EDWARD T. 389
J/emhrane 18 — cont. 1307
And Nicholas who afterwards married Juliana, found her seised of the
custody. After her death, he held the custody, as a chattel of
Juliana, and sold it to Philip. And although Ricard the son, who
is a minor, did not deny but that William the father held of Juliana
immediately, by service which gives custody, but only said that
Nicholas did not enter by virtue of the testament of Juliana, and so
tacitly acknowledged that Juliana held in name of custody: the
Justices not having respect to this, nor to this that there is no need
that a woman bequeath her goods to her husband, as the husband
is lord as well of the wife as of her chattels, proceeded to take the
assise : when they should rather have enquired if Juliana held the
tenements in said form or not. And if they should have found by
recognition of the assise, that Juliana so held, and died seised in
name of custody, then it should manifestly appear that Ricard the
son was not disseised. And he prays that the error be corrected,
and justice showed him.
And Ricard son of William de Raleye says that the Justices pro-
ceeded rightly, because the assise went against Nicholas by his de-
fault. And whereas Philip, in the taking of the assise, alleged that
he did not enter by disseisin, but by demise of Nicholas, to whom
Juliana on her death bed bequeathed the custody to her husband :
Ricard the son, on the other hand excepting, put forward that
Juliana never so bequeathed, nor did she ever make a testament,
but that Nicholas with others disseised him as complained. And
this the Justices enquired of, as they ought. And he prays judg-
ment.
And because it appears to the Court, and Nicholas likewise
acknowledges that though Ricard the son was seised of the tene-
ments by said judgment, Gilbert de Clare entered the tenements by
reason of minority of Ricard, and now holds them. So that the
reading and correction cannot rightly proceed witliout Gilbert. The
Sheriff is commanded to summon Gilbert, for the octaves of S. John
the Baptist, to hear the record with Ricard. The same day is given
to Ricard in the Bench.

Afterwards in the quinzaine of S. Hilary, at Dublin (King
Edward being dead), Nicholas appears against Ricard of said plea,
before John W^ogan, justiciar of King Edward son of said King de-

Ricard to be here at this day to hear the record and judgment of
said plea. And the Sheriff returns that he summoned him by Milo
Ad', Adam Inscoul, Will, son of Adam and John son of William.
Therefore let reading and correction of the record proceed by his

Sheriff is commanded not to omit, on accovmt of the liberty, to levy
the money from the lands and chattels of the Abbot and John, the

And they come not. And they had a day to this day ; after
they appeared in Court, and put themselves on a jury of the

and in the gift of the King by reason of custody of the land and heir
of Thomas son of Maurice being in the hand of the King; and he
proved his claim to the right of patronage, by judgment, by reason
of said custody, against Will, de Rupe, who had presented to it said
Philip. By writ of the King, the Bishop of Cloyne was directed to
admit a fit parson at the presentation of the King, notwithstanding
the reclaim of William. Which bishop at presentation of the King,
admitted Henry to it, and instituted him rector. Philip, in opposi-
tion to said judgment, and that Henry should be removed from said
church, drew both the Bishop and Henry into a plea in the court- of
Christianity in despite and disherison of the King. And the Sheriff
returned in the quinzaine of S. Martin last, that Philip was not
found, but fled attachment, so that he could not be taken. And the
Sheriff returned in said term of Easter, that Philip, first called at the
county court on Tuesday after the feast of the Circumcision last, came
not Secondly called at the county court on Tuesday before the feast
of the Purification of S. Mary, he came not. Thirdly called on
Tuesday after the feast of S. Matthias, he came not. And fourthly
called on Tuesday after Easter, he came not, nor woiild anyone main-
prise him ; therefore he is outlawed.
And at swit of Philip, who rendered himself to the prison of the
King, complaining that, the suitors of the county court, in pronounc-
ing the outlawry made a false judgment, the whole county now comes.
And Philip complains that when he at^ the fourth county court was
called, Will, son of Ph. de Rupe and Luke de Rupe mainprised him
to have him at the next county court, as is the custom ; the county
not allowing the mainprise, proceeded to pronounce outlawry against
him, against the law and custom of the land. Wherefore he prays
that the outlawry be revoked and annulled, and justice shown him.
And the County cannot deny this. Therefore let the ovitlawry be
revoked as erx-oneou.s, and to judgment of the whole county. After-
wards the County made fine by 40/. Afterwards Philip was attached
to answer the King of said plea. He comes, and cannot deny it.

And the Sheriff' was commanded to summon master Will, de

to be there to show wherefore Geoffrey, Roger and Johanna, ought not
to have cognizance of pleas arising in the tenements of said tenant.*,

Nicholas for the marriage, 20 marks, that Nicholasi shovild enfeoff
Margery of a carucate of land in Dengen Ounagh, to hold to Margery,
and the heirs of the bodies of Nicholas and Margei-y. And Nicholas
by virtue of this covenant enfeoffed Margery of the carvicate, and
Margea-y being seised of it, David hithei-to' disturbed the marriage, in
disherison of Nicholas, and tO' hisi damage of 100?.
David comes and acknowledged thei covenant. But says that be-
cause he understood by report of many, that Nicholas lay with two
cousins of Margery, he did not permit Nicholas carnally to know
Margery, yet he never forbade that marriage should be contracted
between Nicholas and Margery ; but Nicholas withdrew from con-
tracting the marriage. Wherefore he says that the fault lay with
Nicholas, and not with him. And of this he puts himself on the

a fine of 10 marks for ti'espass done by Thomas to William.
Thomas comes and cannot deny that he owes them, but says that
an Jiihermcii^ of William, of co. Limerick, stole from Thomas 3 afei^,
and brought them to co. Limerick, which Iiibernicus, after lapse of
time, can^e to the partsi of Kerry, aud Thomas took him, and would
have judged him in his court, as a thief for the said afers, according
to the custom of his court. Aud William, when he knew that. Tliomas
had taken his hibemici/x, cama to Thomas and demanded that his
hibernicus should be restored to him, and he granted that Thomas
might retain the four marks in his hand, until William should have
his hibernicus to be judged {jusficiabilis) in his court, to answer
TliomaSi for the afers so. stolen. And for greater security, William
found pledge of oue mark, that the Ji ib em i cits would stand the charge,
which the hibernicus did not do.
And because Thomas cannot deny that he owes W^illiam the 4 marks,
it is adjudged that William recover them, and his damages, taxed by
the Coui-t at one mark. And Tliomas in mercy for unjust detention.
And let Thouias sue against William as to the covenant, if he see fit.
And Williaui gives to the King | mark, for licence to plead by bill.

Jordan took the stack so being in the custody of Henry, against his
will. Said Henry (recfe Joi-dan) took no stack from Henry in-
juriously, nor was Flyth the hibernicus of Henry. Therefore it is

not the Bishop's tenant. And because Thomas took the afer outside
the Bish<)[)*s fief, and i-etained it when Walter was not the Bishop's
tenant, therefore it is adjudged that Walter recover the afer or half

by command of Philip attacked the housie for a whole night, wishing
to slay Hugh. And on the next day Philip bringing in his company

house. So that Hugh barely escaped on a horse. And Philip with
Ric. de Leye and Walter de Hereford, afterward assaulted Hugh,
and wounded him badly with a sword, so that he barely escaped on
his horse to the church, and he unjustly took from Hugh a horse
ijitmentum), value 10.*.
And Philip comes and say.s that he did no injury to Hugh. And
he prays that this be enquired by the country. Hugh likewise.
Therefore let it be enquired.
And as to this, that Hugh says that Nich. O Molraii, a felon, was
in the company of Philip, Philip cannot deny that Nicholas was in
his company, but not to do any evil, nor did he know him to be a
felon. Because he says that after Nicholas abjured the land, he had
a writ of the King directed to Ric. de Cauntelou, late sheriff, in which
was contained that Nicholas had protection (tuirio) of the peace iintil
a certain day, within which he was in his company, during the pro-
tection, and not at any other time after he abjured the land.
Demanded if he can show anything for said protection, he says, No,
because the said Sheriff is long dead, and that v/rit is not found among
the writs of the present sheriff. He says however that he is ready to
aver as the Court shall adjudge that Nicholas had such
protection. And because it appears to the Court that
such averment ought not to be admitted of such protec-
tion which is of record, Philip is told that he may vouch,
for that protection, the rolls of the Justiciar, to warranty; or that
he show some other special act of the King, that he could lawfully
hold Nicholas in his company after said abjuration. And Philip says
that he knows nothing other than he before says. Therefore to judg-
ment, as well of Philip, as of the whole community of the county, for
receiving said felon after said abjuration, which ought to be notorious
and public.
The Jurors say that Philip came upon the land of Plugh which he
held from Philip, and distrained Hugh, his tenant, for pleas in de-
fault. And Hugh seeing Philip coming and understanding that he
wished to take, in name of distraint, a horse (jiimenfum) of his, ran
to the horse and mounted it and fled. And Philip rode his laorse
(runciniis) after him, and his horse stumbled and fell, and threw
Philip to the ground. And Hugh perceiving this, leaving his horse,
returned to Philip, and with his knife drawn would have slain Philip,
his lord, to whom he had not yet done homage or fealty. And Philip
perceiving this, and not otherwise able to escape, dx'ew his sword and
jDut it between him and Hugh. And Hugh vehemently moved with
anger, intending to strike Philip with his knife, ran upon Philip's
sword, and wounded liiinself. And as to the other trespasses, which
Hugh says were done to him by Philip, ihpy say tliat Philip is not in
anyway culpable.
Judgment that Hugh take nothi,iig liv iiis plaint. Iml he in mercy
for false claim.
Afterwards Philip made fine for receiving Nich. Omolran felon by

Heuse, son and heir of Hubert de Huse, by reason of the minority

the will of his lady ; on accovmt of which it is alleged he delivered
the land of Nicholas to him, two years and more before he came to
age, to the damage to Emelina of 100/.
It is found by the Jury that Henry did not deliver his land to
Nicholas, but that Nicholas immediately after his lawful age was
proved, entered his land against the will of Henry, and that long
afterwards, Nicholas took to wife the daughter of Henry. And that
Henry, as well for the marriage, as for the entry in the land, is not
guilty, as Emelina complains.

Kerry. Ro,sea Craddoc complains of James son of William son of Andiew,
that when she impleaded James, of 55 acres of land, at Dublin, before
the Justices of the Bench, it was agreed between them, that Rosea
should withdraw from her writ, and that James should afterwards
sustain an inquisition in this county, chosen by their common consent.
So that neither of them should procui-e the inquisition by gifts, or in
other manner. And that for whom the inquisition, so takea, should
declare upon the right of the land, he should freely hold it for ever.
And that if either of them should be in fault in anything, that said
covenants sliould not be observed, he should give to the other in whom
fault bhould not remain, one tun of wine. Which covenant as to with-
drawal of the writ, on the part of Rosea was v/holly observed. James
after he came home, would not sustain the inquisition, as agreed, but
detains the land against the agreement, to the damage of Rosea of
20/.
James comes and acknowledges the agreements, but says that the
fault does not lie with him that they are not observed, but if it re-
mains with anyone, it is with Rosea. Because as soon as she came
home she, with one Ph. son of Roger, procured the whole country to
say for her that she had better right in the land than James. And
so she came against the agreement. By which it appears to him
that he is not bound to answer her plaint, as the fault remains in
her, and not in him.
Afterwards Rosea gives to^ the King AOs. by pledge of James, who
ought to pay, for licence to agree, and they have licence, and they
agree. And the agreement is that Rosea comes into court and ac-
knowledges a quit-claim before made by her to one Will, son of

that Peter could not have them.

moved his horse from the place in which he stood before, and
Ricard with the impetus of his horse's running, struck David by
chance, and not of evil intent. And he says that David could have
avoided the blow with his horse, if he would. And what was done

They come. Risus answers as tenant of one carucate, that he had
entry by John, without any disseisin to Thomas. And he puts him-
self on the assise.
John answers as tenant of the residue. As to the rent, he says
that assise ought not to be taken, because Laurence son of Thomas
and Thomas son of Hugh, who hold the tenements of which the rent
arises, are not named in the writ. As to the remaining 8 carucates
he says that John, who had not heir of himself, wishing to promote
Thomas, granted to him that he should have said tenements to him
and his heirs, after John's death, if it should happen that John should
not have heir male of his body lawfully begotten ; so that if he
should have a daughter, then Thomas should have her suitably
married, and he should have the lands to him and his heirs for ever.
But he John nevertheless maintained himself in seisin without
Thomas having any seisin of which he could be disseised.
Thomas, as to the rent, says that he has a disseisor and a tenant.
And this he prays may be enquired by the assise. As to the 8
carucates, he says that John ought not' to be admitted to say that
Thomas was not in seisin of the tenements, Ijecause in the quinzaine
of Easter, n. r. xii., before Robert Bagod and his fellows justices of
the Bench, Dublin, a fine was levied between Thomas and John, of the
same tenements, on a writ of warranty of charter. Bv which John
acknoAvledged the tenements to be the right of Thomas, as those
which Thomas had of the gift of John. And as he acknowledged in
the King's court that Thomas had those tenements, by virtue of his
acknowledgment of tlie fine: and it is contained in the Statute of the
King, of fines duly levied, that such exception proposed to annul
fines, that demandants or tenants, or their ancestors, were in seisin of

tenements contained in such fines at the time when such fines were
levied, from henceforth be not admitted. And he prays judgment.
And he proffers the part of such fine :
Final concord made in the King's court at Dublin, in the quin-
zaine of Easter, a.r. xii., before Robert Bagod, master Thomas de
Chedd', Nich. Taf , John de Triuers and John de Hacche, Justices
of the Bench, bet^^een Thomas Smetli, plaintiff, and John son f>f
AVilliam, of 9 carucates of land in C<3nkYnosse, Lyskaman and Rath-
kinhern, and half a knight's fee and 20.s-. '2d. rent in Clothanmaking
and Cathcrmonysyl ; whereof a plea of warranty of charter was
summoned between them, in same court, to wit, that John acknow-
ledge said tenements to be the right of Thomas, as those which
Thomas has of the gift of John ; to hold to Thomas and his heirs,
of Rys son of Elias and his heirs, by the services belonging to said
tenements for ever. John and his heirs will warrant Thomas and
his heirs for ever. For this acknowledgment, warranty, fine, and
concord, Thomas granted to John said tenements to hold to John
and his heirs male of his body, of Thomas and his heirs for ever ;
rendering yearly to Thomas and his heirs, one pair of gloves, or
one penny of silver, at Easter, for all service. And after the death
of John without heir male of his body, the tenements shall revert
wholly to Thomas or his heirs, quit of other heirs of John for ever.
Besides Thomas gave to Johru 10 marks.
And John, says as before, that whatever parley was between them,
John always held himself in seisin of the tenements, without Thomas
having any seisin there. And as Thomas, who sued the assise, does
not wish that the assise be taken as his writ requires; and John is
ready to verify by the assise that Thomas never had seisin of the
tenements, as of freehold whereof he could be disseised, which aver-
ment Thomas has refu.sed to admit ; and so he does not follow his own
suit, the taking of the assise, he prays judgment.
Thomas says, as before, that John ought not to be admitted to
allege that he was always in seisin. And as John says nothing to
excuse himself from the disseisin, he prays that he be had for a
disseisor, and that enquiry be made as to damages.
Afterwards Thomas gives to the King 40r/. for licence to withdraw
from his writ. Therefore, let Risius and the others go sine die.

Walter answers as tenant of the tenement out of which the rent
arises, that he claims nothing in said rent, and made no disseisin.
Nicholas says that Nicholas, his last predecessor as Bishop of Ard-
fert, was seised in demesne of said tenement and of receiving said rent
from it, by the hands of John Moynagh, father of Walter, whose
heir he is, as by the hands of his true tenant ; and that he died in
seisin. And Nicholas, now bishop, who found his church so seised,
distrained for the rent, as he was entitled to do. And he p'rays
judgment.
Walter son of John says that the Bishop was not seised of the rent.
But tliat the tenements passed out of the seisin of John his father,
who enfeoffed said Walter Ketyng, who now holds it. And after that
feoffment, John his father was seised of the rent, by the hands of
Walter Ketyng as his true tenant, and thereof died seised. After
whose death, Walter, as son and heir, was seised of the rent until
Nicholas and Walter disseised him. And of this he putsi liimself on
the assise.
The Jurors say that John Moynagh, father of Walter, was seised of
the tenement out of which the rent arises, and held it of the Bishop of
Ardfert and his predecessors, rendering yearly for each acre, id.
And afterwards John enfeoffed Walter Ketyng, on paying to him and
his heirs yearly, 5.'?. 1\<1., besides the rent due to the Bishop, from
same tenements. And after the death of John, Walter the son was
seised of said rent, Lintil W^ alter Ketyng deforced him. And the
Bishops of Ardfert did not distrain or impede Walter, or his father
John, from levying the r).?. llrl . ; but they only received the rent due
to them as chief lords of the fee.
And because Walter son of John in his plaint made the Bishop
tenant of the rent of whi<^h he complains tliat he is disseised, whereas
the Bishop had nothing in that rent, and so is not tenant : so tluit if
he should have recovered said rent against the Bishop, to which he

The Jurors say that Maurice son of Thomas, lyinp; in his deatli bed,
at Moytlayth, on Wednesday before Easter, a. r. xxxiii., had in mind
to promote his younger son's, born of Sibilla his last wife, and to give
them all lands which he had of his own acquisition, and he ordained
that Gerald his son should have all lands of his own acquisition
of Vyaille. And that he should know this of the assent of Nicholas,
his sou and heir, he sent by the Abbot of Kyryeleyson, and a friar
minor, who were with Maurice iii his sickness, to Nicholas, who then
was at Moyflayth, that he would give his assent to the
gift, and do this by his letters patent, and by taking his oath. WTio,
coming to him, and knowing that he would not freely give assent to
this, said to him that his father asked him, and enjoined him to give
assent that Gerald should have of the gift of Maurice, the tenements
of Lystrath and Culcleth. To which he freely gave assent, granting
tliat he would make his letter upon this, and take his oath, knowing
nothing of the wish of his father as to making the gift to Gerald of
Vyaille. And the Abbot and friar minor returned to Maurice assert-
ing that Nicholas would do fully what he had sent them to ask of him.
And when Maurice sent for Nicholas to come to him, to fulfil the
premises, one of Nicholas' well-wishers, who was aware of Maurice's
wish, drew Nicholas apart before he entered the chamber, and told him
that his father wished to have the security of his assent, on making a
gift to Gerald of said tenements of Vyaille. Which, if he would not
do, he believed that Maurice was ready to give him his curse. And
Nicholas fearing this, asked his counsel what he should do. Who
answered tliat he should go into the chamber, and say to his father
that he was ready to do in all things what the Abbot and friar told
him, on the part of Maurice, as to the giving to Gerald of lands and
tenements of the acquisition of Maurice. And under the same form of
words he should take oath, at request of his father. Entering the
chamber he did so in every thing, in speaking of words and in taking
oath, and immediately put his seal to a letter patent in which was
contained that Nicholas gave assent to this, that Maurice his father
should enfeoff Gerald of Vyaille. Which being done, Maurice gave
to Gerald those tenements, and made two attorneys, Thomas Hubert,
then present, and Stephen Underwode, bailiff of Vyaille, to put
Gerald in seisin, and he gave him the keys of certain chests at
Lysnaue, in which were charters and writings, enjoining him to go
there, and take with liim all charters and writings touching the
acquisition by Maurice of his lands in Vyaille. And he granted to
him all his movables in the Manor of Vyaille, not only from intent
that he should have tlie niovaljles, but tliat by such grant the seisin
of Gerald might 1)0 more full and valid. And Gerald, immediately
taking Tliomas with him, came to Lexnaue, and took all charters and
other writings which he found there of Maurice's acquisition of the
Manor of Vyaille. And in the meanwhile Nicholas enjoined Peter
his brother to go to Vyaille, and by all means to impede the seisin of
Gerald. Who with what celerity he could came there, and entering
the castle, called Stephen, enjoining him on the part of Nicholas, that
whatever letter should come to him on the part of Maurice, for put-
ting Gerald in seisin, he should do nothing. And Stephen, doubting
that if Maurice should recover and he shoiild not have executed his
mandate, he would do him much ill ; and on the other hand he feared
the ill will of Nicholas, if Maurice should die, and he had executed the
mandate. On which account Stephen remained in the Castle with
35 EDWARD 1. 423
Membrane SOcl — co/it. loOt
Peter, as if enforced. And the fourth day after Gerald and Thomas
left Moyflayth, they came together to Vyaille, and entered the manor
without impediment, because there is not an enclosure for the entrance
{(■laiistiini ad portani.) there. And descending, they put their horses
in a stable there together with the horse of one David {blank),^ who
likewise came there with Gerald. And immediately Thomas said: I
put thee, Gerald, in seisin of this manor, according to the form of the
letter patent. And afterwards Gerald broke a stack of corn there,
and fed their horses with the corn. Afterwards Gerald and David,
seeing the door of a cellar of the castle to be open, went into the cellar.
And Gerald having left David, in his name, in the cellar, returned to
the house where their horses were. And Peter, who with Stephen,
always held himself in the castle, hearing that David was in the
cellar, entered it, commanding David to go out. Who immediately
went out and returned to Gerald. And together they held themselves
in said house with their horses, for two days. And the third day one
of the tenants gave Gerald his plough, to plough in the demesne lands
of the manor, for continuance of his seisin. Which when he knew,
Peter went there, and finding the plough ploughing, cut the ox-yoke
and other apparatus of the plough, and impeded the ploughing;
Maurice yet surviving. Afterwards, on the fourth day following,
Maurice being dead, Nicholas came and took seisin of the whole manor,
but Gerald withdrew before his coming.
Asked how many days Gerald so maintained himself there before
the death of Maurice, "they say 5 days, and 3 days after his death.
Asked if Gerald had any intendence from the tenants or household of
the manor, and if he took there any other necessaries and issues
before the death of Maurice, or after, except said corn with which he
fed his horses, they say no. And they say that Maurice granted to
Gerald said movables after the making of his testament. He did not
make anv testament on his death bed, but nearly a vear before.

that after said giving, Walter was not in seisin, so that he could

John le Draper says he claims nothing except tenancy at will of
Robert, and he made no disseisin. He puts himself on the assise.
Robert says, as before, that John Moynagh the failier demised the
tenement to Eckam in pledge. And Eckam, intending to go to
Gascony, demised the estate he had to Robert, which estate he con-
tinued, without disseisin, to Walter.
Walter says that John the father did not demise the tenement to
Eckam in pledge, but for term of 15 years, so that the fee and
freehold remained always in the person of John the father. And he
being dead, Walter, after the end of the 15 years, entered as in his right
and inheritance, and was peacefully seised until Robert, John, and
Heckam disseised him. And he puts himself on the assise.
The Jurors say that John Moynagh, father of Walter, whose heir he
is, demised the tenement to Eckam, for term of 15 years, and not in

Eckam, intending to go to Gascony, demised the tenement to John le
Draper, to keep it in his name. Afterwards Gilbert son of Maurice, to
whom Eckam was bound in certain debts, vmderstanding that Eckam
would never return to Ireland, ejected John le Draper, and held him-
self in it, the term of 15 years being ended. Afterwards Robert
removed him, and permitted John le Draper to enter again. And

that the assise ought not to be, because Patrick had entry by gift of
Hugh le Hore, grandfather of Henry, whose heir he is, by his charter
which he proffers, by which Hugh binds himself and his heirs to
warrant the rent to Patrick and his heirs for ever. And so' if Patrick
should be impleaded by another, Henry would be bound to warrant
him, as he is heir of 'Hugh, and has lands and tenements of said
inheritance, and so he ought to be excluded from demanding the rent.
And he pravs judgment.
Henrv saVs that the assise ought not to be retarded by this, that he
is heir of Hugh, because Hugh entered said rent after the death of
Henry his father in name of wardship by reason of the minority
of Henry the son. And afterwards he enfeoffed Patrick, and s<j an
action of Novel disseisin is competent to him to recover said rent, the
feoffee or feoffor being living, according tu the form of the Statute.

Walter does not come. Let assise be taken against him by his

says that the assise ought not be taken, because he recovered the said
tenements against said Gilbert, and Walter de la Haye, escheator of
Ireland, by assise of Novel disseisin, taken before John de Ponte and
his fellow justices, at Any, a. r. xxxiv. And he prays judgment if
assise ought to be taken upon an assise.
And Gilbert says that said recovery ought not to retard the taking
of this assise, because he complains of a disseisin made to him before
the time of the disseisin made to Henry, of which disseisin Henry had
his recovery. For he says that Thomas de Clare, father of Gilbert, whose
heir he is, died seised of the tenements in his demesne as of fee. After
whose death Walter de la Haye, escheator, seized said tenements into
the hand of the King, by reason of the minority of Gilbert. And
afterwards, Egidia de Cogan, aunt of Gerald son of Maurice, and his
next heir, claiming hereditary succession in said tenements by the
death of Gerald, asserting that he died seised thereof, sued to tLe
Escheator, that Ricard de Cantilupo, who was his sub-escheator, by
an inquisitioTi taken, delivered seisin of said tenements to Egidia.
And afterwards she enfeoffed John son of Thomas of the tenements,
and he the same day enfeoffed Henry. And afterwards Walter de la
Haye, escheator, finding that Ric. de Cantilupo, his sub-escheator,
erred upon this, again took the tenements into the hand of the King,
on the same account as before, without Henry, then tenant, being
amoved by judgment. And of that disseisin Henry had his recovery.

The Jurors say that Thomas de Clare held said tenements when he
died, claiming fee and freehold. And after his death, Walter de la
Haye, escheator, took the tenements into the hand of the King, with
other tenements of which Thomas died seised in his demesne as of fee,
by reason of the minority of Gilbert his son and heir. And the tene-
ments remained in the hand of the King for 3 years. And then came
Egidia de Cogan, and asserting that Gerald son of Maurice, her
nephew, whose heir she is, died seised, she sued to the Escheator, that
Ric. de Cantilupo, locum tene.ns of the Escheator in. this county, by
mandate of the Escheator, having made inquisition, delivered seisin to
Egidia. And she, tiie same day she had seisin, enfeoffed John son of
Thomas of the tenements. And John the same day enfeoffed Henry, who
held the tenements for one year. And then the Escheator considering
that Richard de Cantilupo had not duly proceeded in the render of
seisin to Egidia, took the tenements again into the hand of the King.
And thence they remained in the hand of the King, until the King
gave the custody of the lands of Thomas to the Countess of Gloucester,
his daughter. And afterwards Gilbert, having provedTiis age, had his
seisin, by livery of the Court, of said tenements and all the rest of his
inheritance. And afterwards Henry sued an assise of Novel disseisin
before John de Ponte and his fellow justices assigned, of said tene-
ments, to wit, of that seisin which he had by John son of Thomas, of
the feoffment of Thomas, Gilbert being then under age, and in custody
of the King. And by verdict of the assise, before said justices at Any,
about the quinzaine of S. John the Baptist, a. r. xxxiv., he recovered
seisin against Gilbert.
It is adjudged that Gilbert recover against Henry and the others,
his seisin of said ^h carucates of land, and 13s. \:d. rent, and his
damages, taxed by the assise, to 60s. 6c?. ; and that the King recover

ments of said Roger, by a service which gives wardship, and died
seised. After whose death he entered the tenements, in name of
custody, by reason of the minority of William, the son and heir,
without any injury or disseisin. William says that Ricard his father,
whose heir he is, died seised in his demesne as ol fee. So that he
claims hereditary succession in the tenements without any disseisin
to David and Matilda. And he puts himself on the assise.
The Jurors say that Ric. Myagh, father of William, whose heir he is,
seized with a grievous disease from which he did not hope to escape,
wishing to p;^event Roger, from whom the tenements are held immedi-
ately, from having custody of the tenements by reason of the minority
of William his son and heir, agreed with David and Matilda, mother
of said Ricard, that he granted to them to have said tenements to them
and their heirs of the body of Matilda, knowing that she was of such,
age that he could not raise offspring from her, on account of old age ;
this condition being added between them, that they should render the
tenements to William as soon as he should come to lawful age. And
riding on horse-back lie put them in seisin of the tenements, and
returned to his house, and died within 15 days. And Roger hearing
rumours of Ricard 's death, entered the tenements in the name of
custody, by reason of the minority of W^illiam, understanding that
such feigned feoffment, made in his prejudice, ought not to prevent
him from having the custody. Asked if David and Matilda received
any advantage and issvies from the tenements after said gift, they
say No, except only the fealty of the gavellers who held the tene-

nothing by this assise, but be in mercy for false claim.

bet-Aveen them, because that whereas Gerald sued this assise under his
name and that of one Cecilia his wife, and so supi^oses that Cecilia
has as high estate in the plaint as he ; said Cecilia now does not
come to prosecute. And he prays judgment if the assise ought to be
without Cecilia, especially as it is sued on this that she may acquire a
freehold by this assise without her suit ; and likewise as neither by the
Common Law nor by statute, is anyone admitted to prosecute for
another in assise of Novel disseisin, except for a child under age

And the Prior says that although a bailiff ought not to be admitted
to make such answer, but only to excuse the injury of his lord, yet he
says that he has a special deed, to Avit, of Elianora, daughter of

Elianora daughter of sir Nicholas son of Leo, to all. Of her charity,
and for her soul, and those of her father and mother, and of sir John
Purcel, sometime her husband, and those of her ancestors, she has given
to the house of S. Mary of Rathgel, and the Prior and canons of the
Aroasian Order in said church, the tithe of all bread, ale, porks,
wethers or sheep, the shoulder of each beef (scapulam ciiiuslibet
inarti), and of all other victual expended in her court of Moycro ; to
be received of her and her heirs in her court, to the Prior and Canons
and their successors, in pure alms for ever, with all liberties which
ought to belong to free alms, which she can give and warrant. To
the payment of said alms, she binds herself, her heirs and assigns for
ever. For this gift, the Prior and Canons have granted for them-
selves and their successors, that they will have a chaplain in their
churth, who will celebrate for ever for her soul and those above noted.
She has confirmed the writing with her seal. Witnesses, G. bishop
of Lymerick, Master David, chancellor of same church, Thomas de
Valle, John de Valle, Thomas Sai'ysfield.
And he saj-s that his predecessors, priors, after the making of said
writing, were in peaceful seisin of said corody, vintil the death of
Elianora. And after her death, Hugh, the next heir, entered the
manor, and withdrew the corody. For which, the then Prior
impleaded Hugh, before Ric. de Exon' and his fellows justices last
itinerant in this county. And for fear of that plea, it was agreed
anew between the Prior and Hugh, that the Prior and his successors
should have for ever, 2 crannocs of wheat, 2 crannocs of oats, and 4
porks, value half a mark, to be received from the manor of Moycrogh.
And the Prior, for that corody, renounced the writing made by
Elianora. And the jiresent Prior was for many years in peaceful seisin
of the said corody. And afterwards Hugh withdrew the corody.
And afterwards fearing that the Prior would implead him, he maide
peace with the Prior by one mark, for arrears of the corody for 4
years, in which Hugh withheld it. And he paid the corody, and
afterwards again withheld it. And so he says that covenant made
between the Prior and Hugh, by which Hugh is exonerated from
paying the greater corody by the writing of Elianora, ought to be
held for a sufficient title.
And Hugh says that the mark which he so gave to the Prior was not
for arrears of the corody, but for pardoning his right, if any be
had. And this he prays may be enquired by the assise. The Prior
likewise. And as to Thomas, let assise be taken against him by his
default. And let the truth be enquired by assise.
The Jurors say that the Prior and his predecessors were in seisin of
the corody, for the life of Elianora, according to the purport of the
Haid writing. And afterwards, Hugh the heir, who after the death
of Elianora, withdrew the corody, agreed with the Prior that he and
his successors should have 2 crannocs of wheat, 2 crannocs of oats, and
4 porks, value half a mark, from liis manor of Moycrogh, for ever ; so
that the Prior and his successors should exact nothing of the corody
contained in said writing. And he promised the Prior to make for
this a writing, and that the writing of Elianora (which the Prior
renounced), should remain with the Prior as pledge, until he should
have another writing of this corody granted to him by Hugh. And
they say that the Prior was in seisin of said corody, so granted by
Hugh, for many years. And afterwards he withdrew from paying the
corody for four years and more. And afterwards ho made peace.

said land, and that he claims nothing except for term of years by
demise of Thomas Dene, and of said Piobert. Which Thomas
enfeoffed Robert of said land, as well as other lands there. And he
prays judgment.
And Robert says, as before, and that he has a disseisor, and a
tenant. Let the assise be taken.
The Jurors say that Thomas Dene, father of Robert, gave to Robert
said H acre, with other lands there. And afterwards Robert, with
assent "of Thomas, demised the tenement to William, for term of

The Jurors say that Roger held the tenement whereout the rent
arises, of said Elyas, by the service of os. rent yearly. Which rent
Elias made to Peter le Botiller, as mesne between Peter and Roger.
And after the death of Peter, Roger moved by anger against said
Elyas his brother, came to the seneschal of Thomas de Multon, in
whose custody the lands of John, son and heir of said Peter, are, by
reason of the minority of John, and did him fealty in the name of
said heir, and attorned to said heir for the rent; and paid him the

Philip comes and acknowledges the agreement and the feoffment,
but says that action ought not to lie for the 19 marks. For he says
that he had the tenements at first from William for a term not yet
passed. And during the term he acquired them from William in fee,
under the condition that William should make to him sufficient
security, as the King's court should adjudge or discreet men ordain,
for the tenements. And afterwards Philip, considering that the
tenements were given by Nicholas de Saunford to William and Alice
his wife, and the heirs of their bodies, by a charter which William
had, and which he gave to Will, de Doundouenold, to keep as in
equal hand, and which Will, de Doundouenold proffered in covirt, and
which testifies this. So that William son of Roger could make no
security to him, by fine or otherwise, because of the fee tail which he
had in them. And he says that since William son of Roger cannot
make him such security, he is ready to render to him the tenements,
quit of Philip and his heirs, as soon as William shall render to him
the 21 marks which he paid to him, in part payment of the 40 marks.
And because William cannot deny the agreement nor the feoffment,

death of John le Loung, who was slain in the town of Kilmehallok ;

And David and said Coroner, who joins him in answering, say
that precept was sent by the Coroner to the Sheriff, to take one David
le Flemeng of Kilmehallok, and that William, knowing that it was
not this David who ought to be taken, maliciously imprisoned him.
And they pray that this be enquired. Issue joined.
The Jurors say that William, who was commanded to take David
le Flemeng, found this David in this full county court, and took him
by pretext of the precept. Nor did he know any other David in his
bailiwic. And he did not do this maliciously, but because the precept
distinctly made mention of taking David le Flemeng. Therefore it
is adjudged that David take nothing by his plaint against William,
but be in mercy for false claim.
And because it appears by the Jury that John de Suylli, coroner,

that David recover against John, his damages taxed by the Jury at

It is found by the Jury in which Maur. le Gather, plaintiff, and
Jokn Clonbrene and Will. Bole {Entry unfinished).
The Provost of Any showed to the Court, for the King, that whereas
John le Cutayller, custos of pleas of the market in place of Will, de
Balygaueran, came to the town of Any, to exercise his office, and for
certain defaults which he found, he amerced the town at IOO5. ; he
afterwards sent to the town his sou, who, in John's name, received half
a mark, to the use of John, to pardon the mercy to the town, in deceit
of the King.
And John, present in court, and demanded upon this, says that he
came to the town to exercise his office, to wit, to see and examine
measures and weights, as is customary. And the bailiffs and com-
munity of the town would not obey him, and show their measures.
On which he said : I amerce you at 100s. That by this he might induce
them to show their measures. Afterwards by fear of that mercy, they
brought before him their measures and weights, which he examined,
fixing a day for them to pay half a mark for his fee, which they paid
to his son at the day.
And because the Provost cannot show that John received there any
money, except half a mark, which lie might lawfully receive for his
fee. Therefore let John go sine die. And the town, which for the
disobedience and contempt was not before punished, in heavy mercy.
And because John cannot deny that he promised to seal the measures
and weights of the town, as is the custom, and afterwards would not
seal them, although often requested by the town ; therefore he in
mercy.
Jolin le Rede, late provo.st of the town of Kylmehallok, complains for

and fully fulfilled his office there, and punished those whom he found
culpable. And John le Rede, the provost, and the twelve of
the town who were before liim when he examined the measures and
wejc^hts, promised him 40.*., that he should not aggrieve the town in
his examination. For which John le Cutyler sent there his son from

Cork. They then did not pay the money at the day assigned. For
this cause John le Cutyller amerced each of the twelve at iOri., and
also amerced the town at 30s., maliciously. And he prays remedy.
John le Cutyller comes, and says that he came to the town of Kylme-
hallok, and having examined the measures and weights, the twelve
undertook to pay him half a mark at Cork, for his fee, on a certain
day. And because they did not then pay the money, he amerced
each of the twelve at \0d., and delivered those amercements to the
Exchequer in his estreats.
And because, having inspected the summons of the Exchequer,
Dublin, directed to the Sheriff of this county, of the estreats of John
le Cutyller, it appears that John amerced each of the twelve at 406?.,
and also the town at 30s., to wit, John le Rede and the community,
which 30s. are levied from John le Rede. It is adjudged that John
le Rede recover against John le Cutiller 30s., and John le Cutiller in

Cork. Assise of Novel disseisin. If Alicia Stabler, Will, son of Ric.
Magnel, and Thomas del Naungle, disseised Roger de Cliston, of his
freehold in Boutauant, one messuage.
Alicia and William come. Thomas comes not ; let assise be taken
against him by default. William says he claims nothing, and made
no disseisin. Alice answers as tenant, that Roger never was in seisin.
And they put themselves on the assise. Let assise be taken.
The Jurors say that Roger never was in seisin, so that he could be
disseised. Therefore it is adjudged that he take nothing by this
assise, but be in mercy for false claim.
Coik. Assise of Novel disseisin. If Milo de Rupe disseised Ph. son of
David de Rupe, of his freehold in Corleth in Carrig, one messuage and
'^7^ acres.
Milo says that one Will, de Rupe held the tenements of Henry de
Rupe, by a service which gives custody according to the custom of
this land. And Milo acquired the dwrniniuni of the tenements from
Henry. William, who was a bastard, having died, there succeeded tu
liim Martha his daughter and heir, of whom Milo had intendence, as
her [lord] of the tenements. And because Martha died without heir,
Milo entered the tenements as his escheat, without disseisin to Philip.
Philip says, as befoie, that he was in. good seisin of the tenements
until Milo disseised him. And of this he puts liimself on the assise.
Therefore let assise be taken.
The Jurors say as Milo pleaded. After the death of Martha, Milo's
bailiff came to the tenements to take seisin for Milo, as his escheat.
But said Ph. son of David, who came there before, claiming hereditary
succession, impeded the bailiff, so that he could not have seisin. And
Philip afterwards remained in seisin for a year and more. And after-
wards Mile ejected and disseised him.
Judgment that Philip recover his seisin by view of the recognitors.
And Milo in mercy. As to damages, nothing, because the recognitors
testify that the land is improved.

Ykt of Common Pi.eas at Balaghath, befoi^e John Wogan, Justiciau, July 8.
IN THE QUINZAIXE OF S. JOHX THE BaPTIST.
Thomas bishop of Meath was directed that having searched the rolls Tipperary.
of Walter Lenfaunt and his fellows justices itinerant in co. Tipperary,
in custody of the Bishop, and the rolls of said Bishop of the same
iter, he should send to the Justiciar a record of a plea by the King's
writ of right, between the Master of the Knights of the Temple in
Ireland, demandant, and the Prior of Athysshell, deforciant, of the
advowson of the church of Ardmail. Which he sent :
Pleas of Juries and assises before Walter Lenfaunt, Walter de la
Haye, John de Ponte, Alex, de Bykenore, and Will. Alysaundre,
justices itinerant at Casshell, in co. Typerary, in the quinzaine of
S. Michael, a. r. xxxiii., continued to the morrow of S. Hilary,
a. r. xxxjv.
Tlie Master of tlie Knights of the Temple in Ireland demands
against the Prior of Athisshell, the advowson of the church of
Ardmayll, of which he unjustly deforced him. And he says that
one Herbert, his predecessor, formerly Master, was seised of the
advowson as of fee, and the right of his Temple, in the time of
peace, in the time of King Henry, father of the now King, as
parson imparsonee in said church in his own use, of his own
advowson, by union {fer consoUdacionem) of the Bishop of the
place, taking thereout issues, as in great and small tithes, oblations,
obventions and others, to the value. And that such is his right,
he offers, etc.
And the Prior comes and denies {defendif) the right of the Master
of the Temple, and the seisin of Herbert his predecessor, of the
advowson of the church of Ardmaill. And puts himself on the
grand assise, and prays that recognition be made whether he have
great-er right to hold the advowson, as the right of his church of
S. Edmund of Athissthell, as he holds it, or the Master, as the right
of his Temple. And the Prior offers to the King h, mark, to have
mention of the time and. . . . Day is given them here in the
octaves of the Purification. And then let four knights come to
elect, etc.
At which day, came John son of Robert, John Assik, Ricard le
Waleys, knights summoned to elect. And Oliver Haket, one of
the knights summoned, comes not, therefore in mercy. And the
Sheriff is commanded to distrain Oliver, John, John, and Ricard
by all their lands, and have them on Friday following to elect. The
same day is given to the parties.
At which day came the Master and the Prior, and said knights
distrained to elect. And a day is given to the morrow of the
Ascension, by continuation, as from day to day.
At which day came the Master and Prior, and said John,
John, Ricard, and Oliver, knights to elect; before Thomasi
bishop of Meath, assigned in place of Walter Lenfaunt (being
elsewhere by precept of the King), and Walter de la Haye,
John, Alexander, and William; they elected, of themselves

Geoffrey le Bret, Thomas de S. John, Ph. Baroun, William de^ S.
Ledger, Geoffrey de Norragh, R(il)ert Ketyno', John de Sutton, Ric
le Waleys, and John de Staunton, knights, to make recognition of
the assise. Therefore the Sheriff was eonnnanded to sunnnon l)e-
fore the justices, said knights, in the octaves of Holy Trinity, to
make recognition of the said assise between the parties. And the
Sheriff did nothing. Therefore he, to wit, Henry Haket, in
mercy. And the Sheriff was commanded to make John, etc., the
knights elected, be before the Justices on the morrow of S. John
the Baptist. The same day is given to the parties.
And John Assik, John son of Robert, etc., come.
And Geoffrey le Bret, Jolm de [Sutton, John de] Staunton, come
not. And the Sheriff returned that John de Sutton was attached
by Thomas Lenfaunt and Griffin [John] de Staunton
was attached by Jordan Og and David le Clerk; therefore they and
their pledges in mercy. And as to Geoffrey [le Bret], the Sheriff
returned that he was not foamd, and he presented no distraint upon
him ; therefore [the Sheriff, Henry] Haket, in mercy.
And the Sheriff is eonnnanded to distrain all said knights by all
their lands; and have them before the Justices, on Monday after
the quinzaine of S. John the Baptist, to make the assise. The same
day is given to the parties. Nothing as to the mercy of John de
Staunton here, because elsewhere. And the Sheriff [is commanded]
to distrain John Assik, etc., to be before the Justices itinerant at
Cassell, as before.

four knights to elect, the Justices ought then to have adjudged that tlie
Sheriff should cause to be summoned four knights, etc. And if the
Sheriff' caused tliem to come by summons, he tlid this without warrant,
because they should come either freely, or at request, or by distraint.
And likewise they erred in that it is contained in the octaves of
the Purification, thus: At which day came John son of Robert, etc.,
knights summoned to elect, etc., no mention being made that the
parties came. And so it appears that another day was fixed for the
four knights, without the parties having appeared in court. And
they ought to have said thtis : At which day came the parties, and
likewise the knights, etc.
And likewise they erred in this that when the plea was by writ of
right, the Justices adjourned the plea from the octaves of the Purifica-
tion until Friday following, when so short a day is not accustomed to
be given in a writ of right.
And likewise the Justices erred in this, that when as well the
parties, as the knights, came on said Friday, the plea on that day
remained wholly sijie die, because they were not further adjourned,
as appears in the record of said day, where is contained thus: And a
day is given at the morrow of the Ascension, by continuation as from
day to day. No mention being made to whom the day is given. And
so neither the parties nor the four knights, etc., were adjoiirned.
And so by consequence the plea remained wholly discontinued.
35 EDWARD I. 445
Mertibrane 52d — cont. 1307.
And likewise the Justices erred in that they gave to the parties
aad to the jurors of the assise, three days within one week, as appears
in the record, because before Justices itinerant there are never accus-
tomed tc be given more than three days at most in one term.
The}- say also that the Justices erred in this, that when Ric. de
Valle was one of the four knights electors, the Justices removed him
by their own act, and constituted another in his place, which they
were not empowered to do.
And likewise they erred in this, that when the Prior, before the
Justices, alleged thkt John sou of Robert and John Assik, knights,
ought not to be in the great assise, because they are tenants and
members of the household (fatniliares) of Edmund le Botiller, a kins-
man of the Master. And because Ric. le Botiller and Gilbert le
Botiller, brothers of said Edmund and kinsmen of the Master,
were members of the household of the Master ; and they,
with Henry Laffan, seneschal of the lands of Edmund, supported
the plea with the Master; the Justices did not allow that allegation,
but said that that exception was not valid because the Master did not
demand the advowson as his own right, but only as the right of the
Temple.
And likewise the Justices erred in this, that they put in the grand
assise two knights, to wit, Robert Ketyng and John de Staunton and
Will, de S. Ledger, who have not freehold in the county.
And likewise they erred in this, that when the Prior alleged before
the Justices, that the Master ought not to be answered to his writ,
because the Prior was not tenant of the whole advowson. For one
John, vicar there, holds a third part of the church, of the advowson
of the Archbishop of Cashel, and he prayed judgment, the Justices
not allowing the exception of the Prior, adjudged that the Prior
should answer further. And he prays that the errors be corrected,
and justice shown him.
And the Master says that the Prior ought not to be admitted to
assign such errors, some of which are contained in the record, and
others are outside the record. So that as to the errors which are out-
side the record, he ought not to be answered, until he has brought
those errors here. And he prays [that he should say] to which of
said errors, to wit, to' those which he says are contained in the record,
or to those which he puts forward outside the record, he should wish
to hold.
And the Prior says that he wishes to hold to all the errors which he
assigned, as he is entitled to do, because they tend to the same end.
And the Prior asked how he wishes to aver the errors Avhich he puts
forward, which are not contained in the record, says by supple-
ment of the record of the Justices, or other modes which tlie Court
shall adjudge.
And the Master says as to the three first errors Avhich the Prior
assigns, that the Justices proceeded duly in all things, as may appear
by inspection of the record.
As to the fourth error, that on Friday after the octave of the
Purification, the parties were not adjourned, he says that the Justices
on that day fixed a day to the parties, and likewise to the knights,
to the morrow of the Ascension. And he calls tlie filling up (suplecio)
of the record of the Justices. (Xo nuenfuni of a fifth error.)
And as to the sixth error, which is not containc<l in tlie record,
to wit, that the Prior says that Ric. de Valle was [one of] four knights

electors. He says that the Prior ought not to be admitted to say
this, because the contrary is found in the record.
And as to the seventh error, where the Prior says that he alleged
that John son of Robert and John de Assik ought not to be put in the
assise, he says that the Prior afterwards conceded them.
And as to the eighth error, of knights not having land in the
county, he says that was tried before the Justices, and they were
found sufficient.
And as to the [ninth], where the Prior says that he alleged, as in the
beginning of the plea, that tlie Master ought not to be answered. In
fact, the Prior alleged against the Master that he is not bound to
answer him on said account. But the Master said that the Prior was
his def('rceor of the whole advowsoii. And this he prayed to aver,
which averment [the Prior] refused to admit; and he freely answered
further, and put himself on the great assise.
And as to the other errors which the Prior assigned, to wit, to those
which are contained in the record, he says that the Justices proceeded
duly. And he prays judgment.
And the Prior says, as to this, that the Master alleges that the
Prior refused to admit the averment which the Master offered, that the
Prior was his deforceor of the whole advowson, that the Prior put
forward the [statement] above expressed, that John the vicar held
the third part of the church, of the advowson of the Archbishop, the
Justices did not accept that averment, but adjudged that the Prior
should answer further.
And as to this, that tiie Master says that the Prior ought not to be
admitted to say that Ric. de Valle. . . . of the four knights
electors, because the contrary is found in the record, the Prior says
the contrary, not ... in the record, because after Ric. de Valle
was summoned as one of the four electors, afterwards llicard
was. . . . by the Justices, and another put in his place, which
ought rather to be noted as an error than the contrary. And he prays
judgment.
And because it appears to the Court that said Walter and the
Bishop should certify the Justiciar upon the errors assigned, which
are not found [in the record], they are directed to send a full record
the same day is given to the parties.

gallons of wine, so that Robert should send his certificate to Robert,

adultery with said Geoffrey Serle. On account of which, Agnes was

that Agnes stood excommunicated for 40 days and more, and prayed

when Agnes came before the Bishop, the Bishop enjoined her penance
for the perjury, which she neglected to perform. And on account of

Limerick. Assise of Novel disseisin. If James de Keting, Thomas son of
Walter de Bristou, and Will. Dundouenild, disseised Adam de Goules,
of his freehold in Rathmackandan and Balyultagh, 38s. ''2d. rent.
James and the others come. And William says that he claims
nothing and made no disseisin, but acknowledges that he at one time
held 40 acres charged with Is. ^d. of said rent. Of which 40 a. James
impleaded him in the King's Court, by writ of entry, of the seisin of
Kobert de Keting and Mabilla his wife, grandmother of James, whose
heir he is. And in that plea William called said Adam to warranty
as lord. And because he had nothing by which he could bind Adam
to the warranty, James recovered the land against him discharged of
said rent. And afterwards William induced James to demise to him
the tenements, to be held of James and his heirs by the service of
Is. 9d. rent yearly. And afterwards William enfeoffed Robert de
Dundouenild of said land ; who now holds it, and was seised for two
years past and more. Which Robei't is not named in the writ. And
he prays judgment.
And Thomas answers as tenant of 20 a., charged with 2.s\ 9d. of
said rent, and as tenant of said 7s. 3d. rent, and says that assise
ought not to be taken, because Robert de Dundouenild holds the land
from which that rent of 7s. 3d. arises, w^ho is not named in the writ.
And as to the 2s. 9d . rent, he says that he feared that James would
bring a plea against him of said land, and for fear of that he rendered
the land to James, and afterwards induced him to demise the tenement
to him, to he held of James and his heirs, by the service of 2s. 9d.
yearly. And so he made no disseisin to Adam.
And James answers as tenant of 20 a., charged with 25s. of said
rent, and as tenant of 10s. rent of the lands which Robert de Dun-
douenild and said Thomas hold. And says as to 7s. 9d. rent from
said 40 a., that assise ought not to be taken, because Robert de Dun-
douenild holds the land, who is not named in the writ. And if it
appear that Robert is not tenant, then he says likewise that assise
ought not to be taken, because he impleaded William de Dundouenild,
then tenant of said land, in the King's Court, of said 40 a., by writ of
entry, of the seisin of Robert de Keting and Mabilla his wife, grand-
mother of James, whose heir he is; and he recovered the tenements
against William as his right, of the seisin of Robert and Mabilla, at
the time when those tenements, with all other lands of which said 35s.
rent arise, were in the hand of Robert and Mabilla, discharged of said
rent. And that Thomas rendered to him the 20 a. as the right of
Robert and Mabilla. Likewise he says as to 25 a. charged with 25s.
rent, that he recovered that land against Henry le Flemeng and Ric.
de Brewes, to wit, against Henry 22a., and against Ricard 3 a., by
writ of entry of the seisin of said Robert and Mabilla. And he says
that Ric. le Graunt gave said lands, whereof the 35s. rent arises, to
said Robert, in frank marriage with Mabilla his sister. And
afterwards Geoffrey de Marisc' disseised them, and enfeoffed Hugh

Tj-rell, who charged the land with said rent. And as James acquired
the tenements of the seisin of his ancestors, before the tenements were
so charged, he prays judgment if any act intervening in the mean
time, after said disseisin, ought to charge the hind against him.
And Adam, as to 40 a., charged with 7s. M. rent, says he has a
disseisor and a tenant. And as to 20 a., which Thomas holds, and
25 a. which James holds, says that James had the 20 a. by render of
Walter, father of Thomas; and had the 25 a. by render of Henry and
Ricard; and not by plea. By which render, the right of James was
not tried. And so he says that the render ought not to delay the
taking of the assise. And further he says that Robert, who held the
lands from which the '^i^s. rent arises, enfeoffed of said lands, Geoffrey
de Marisc' Which Geoffrey gave those lands, with others which he
had of the gift of Robert, to Hugh Tyreli, who charged them with said
rent, as he was entitled to do. And he prays that this be enquired
by the assise. Issue joined.
" The Jurors say that Will, de Dundduenild does' not hold the 40 a.
from which the 7*'. 'id. rent arises, nor did he hold on the day of
suing Adam's writ, to wit, 6 July in this year. They say also that
James, 16 years past, sued a writ of entry against William, of said
40 a. of the seisin of Robert and Mabilla, William then being tenant
of said lands. And William, calling to warranty said Adam, and
having nothing by which he could bind Adam to warrant, James
recovered the land against him. And afterwards James demised the
land to William in fee, doing to James and his heirs, the old rent of
7s. M. yearly. And afterwards William enfeoffed Robert de Dun-
douenild, his kinsman, four years past. And as to 2s. 9</. rent,
arising from 20 a., which Thomas son of Walter de Bristou holds,
they say that Walter de Bristou, father of Thomas, whose heir he is,
freely rendered the land to James, by covenant between them, that
having seisin he should re-enfeoff Walter of the land at the old rent,
which James did. And Walter, who was mesne, to wit, immediate
lord of said 40 a., made by his hand to James rent of both lands, to
wit, 10s. yearly, after he was re-enfeoffed by James. And as to 25 a.
which James holds, they say that James had 22 a. of them, charged
with 22s. rent, by render of Henry le Flemeng, who held them and
the remaining 3 a. by render of Ric. de Brewes, who held them,
and not by plea. And they say that Geoffrey de Marisc' acquired
the lands from which the 35s. rent arises, by feoffment of Robert
Ketyng, and had entry in those lands, as in other lands, by feoffment
of Robert, and not by disseisin. And Geoffrey enfeoffed Hugh Tyreli.
And Hugh enfeoffed divers tenants, by the said service of 35s. yearly.
And he enfeoffed of said rent and of the dnminium of the same lands,
Geoffrey, his younger son, who died seised. And Hugh, son and heir,
succeeded him, who' enfeoffed Adam of said rent and dominium. Who
was in peaceful seisin as well in receiving the rents, as in fealty and

Bristou, Henry le Flemeng, and Ric. de Briwes, until said James,

son of Thomas Ketyng, of his freehold in Lvsmolo, one messuage, 40
acres of land, 1 a. meadow, and one weir.
All except Stephen Cole, who is dead, come. Nicholas answers as
tenant of a third part of the weir, that William son of Thomas never
was in seisin of said third part.
Roger answers as tenant of the residiie, that he has entry by said
Nicholas, and not by disseisin, and he calls him to warranty. Who

tenant of the residue. They say that they had entry by Adam Beg.
And Adam says that the assise ought not tO' be between them. Because
one Geoffrey Beg, his father, whose heir he is, died seised in his
demesne as of fee. After whose death he entered as his heir. And if
it appear that he did not die seised, then he says that Ralph never was
seised, so that he could be disseised. And of this he puts himself on

The Jurors say that Halpli never was in seisin us of freehold. Judg-
ment that Ralph take nothing by this assise, but lie in mercy (40r/.)

Ricard. John, by Robert de Boneuill, his bailiff, says that assise
ought not to be between them, because tliat whereas his writ supposes
that Philip and Anastasia were together seised of the tenements,
Philip never was seised of them, so that he could be disseised. And he

Paganus, by Robert de Boneuill, his bailiff, answers that he claims

Geoffrey Arnold answers as tenant, that Gerald never was seised as
of freehold. And he puts himself on the assise. Let assise be taken.
The Jurors say that Johanna and the others disseised Gerald as
complained. Judgment that Gerald recover his seisin, and damages,

Assise of Novel disseisin. If Agnes de Valence, Thomas le. . . .
[Johanna] widow of Elyas le Joeuen,, disseised Geoft'rey le Joeuen, of
his freehold one messuage and one carucate of land.
Agnes, Thomas, and Johanna come not, but Eustace comes, and
answers for them as their bailiff". For Johanna, he says that she
holds a third part in dower, by endowment of Elyas le Joeuen, on
the day when he married her, without disseisin made to Geoft'rey.
For Thomas, he says he claims nothing, and made no disseisin.
For Agnes, he says that assise ought not to be taken, because
Geoffrey is in seisin as of freehold of two parts of the tenements, for
Elyas le Joeuen, fatlier of Geoft'rey, whose heir he is, held the tenements
of Agnes, by service which gives wardship. After whose death she
entered, in name of wardship, by reason of the minority of Geoffrey,
and endowed Johanna the widow of Elyas. And she prays jvidgment.
And for himself he says that he acquired the custody of Agnes,
without making disseisin to Geoffrey.
Geoft'rey says tliat Agnes cannot claim custody of the tenements,
nor that claim delay the taking of the assise, because Elyas did not
die seised, because seven years before his death, he enfeoffed Geoft'rey
of the tenements, who was for said seven years in peaceful seisin of the
tenements, and did by his hand to Agnes the accustomed services for
them. And afterwards Elyas disseised him. And he recovered them
against Elyas by assise of Novel disseisin. And by writ of judgment
seisin was delivered to him, which seisin he continued until the death
of Elyas, when Agnes and the others disseised him. And of this he
puts himself on the assise.
And Agnes says, as before, that assise ought not to be between them.
And she prays judgment that as he acknowledges that he holds the
tenements of her by service which gives custody; and that Elyas,
who held of her, enfeoffed Geoffrey, his son and heir, so that after
his death, that which was acquired by Geoffrey is turned into in-
heritance ; if assise ought to be held thereof, [as she] claims the custody
of the tenements by reason of the minority of Geoffrey.
And Geoffrey says ihat as Agues, after the feoffment, and likewise
after the recovery by assise,

the serv'ices due; she, then accepting the feoffment, cannot now claim
wardship in the tenements l)y reason of minority of Geoffrey. And
he prays judgment.
Afterwards Geoffrey does not prosecute. Therefore he and his
pledges to prosecute, in mercy (^ mark), to wit, Griffin son of Rey-
mund de Rupc, and Ric. son of Reymund de Rupe.
Assise of Novel disseisin. If John Wynebold, late mayor of the city
of Lymerick, Adam le Serjaunt, Nich. le Serjaunt, David son of
lU)bert, and Henry Troye, disseised John son of Ralph, of his freehold
in Lymerick, one messuage.
■John and the others come. And on this comes John de Langeton,
now Mayor of said city, who formerly, to wit, on Thursday before
the feast of the Translation of S. Thomas the Martyr, at Lymerick,
claimed that it should not proceed to the taking of the assise, on
account of the liberty of the city, because the present King, by his
charter, gianted to the citizens, that they be not impleaded outside
the walls of the city of any tenure within the city; and this only by
Fresh force or writ of Right patent. And he says although it should
proceed to the taking of the assise on this, tliat John Wynebold is
named Mayor in the writ, yet that plea ought not to be held! except
within the walls of the city, to wit, in their gildhall (Gyhalda).
Therefore a day is given to the parties in the next coming of the
Justiciar to the said city. The same day is given to the recognitors in
the Bench.
Assise of Novel disseisin. If James de Keting, Will, de Don-
douenild, James Rudale, Ralph Lysnekyll, Robert de Dondouenild,
and Andrew son of John, disseised Adam de Gules of his freehold in
Rathmackandan, Lisnekyll, and Kyldonnyll, 71s. lOd. rent.
James and the others come. William says he claims nothing, and
made no disseisin. James de Rudale answers as tenant of 30 acres
of the land, charged with is. of the rent. Ralph answers as tenant of 30
acres, charged with 10s. hfl. of the rent. Andrew answers as tenant
of 100 a. of land, charged with 25s. Sd. of the rent. They say they
claim nothing in the rent, and made no disseisin.
James de Ketyng, as tenant of the rent, says that assise ought not to
be between them. He says that Ric. le Graunt gave the tenements
from which the rent arises to Robert Keting, in frank marriage with
Mabilla his sister, grandmother of James, whose heir he is. And
afterwards Geoffrey de Mariscis disseised Robert and Mabilla, and
gave the tenements to Hugh Tyrell, who charged the tenements with
said rent. Afterwards James de Keting sued a writ of entry in the
King's Court against Robert de Rydale, father of said James de
Rydale, whose heir he is, then tenant of 30 a. of the land ; and against
Guido de Lysnekyll, father of Ralph, then tenant of 30 a. ; and against
Will, de Dondouenild, then tenant of Ho a., which Robert de Don-
douenild now holds; and against Ralph son of Ricard, then tenant of
100 a., which Andrew son of John holds, of said premises. And he
prayed the tenements against thetn of the seisin of Robert and Mabilla,
by reason of said disseisin. And they called to warranty said Adam.
And because they had nothing by which they could bind Adam to
warrant it, James de Ketyng recovered the tenements against them by

of his former tenure, doing to him and his heirs the rent which they
were before accustomed to give. And he prays judgment if he ought
not to hold the tenements, wholly discharged, as they were [held by
Robert and] Mabilla, of whose seisin he recovered tlie tenements.
And as to 10s. of the rent. . . . He says also that one Robert de
Lysnekyll holds. . . . said rent; and one Adam de Lysnekyll
holds 15. . . = of said rent, and they are not named in the writ.
And he prays judgment.
And Adam says that the [recovery] of James de Ketyng, by which
his right was not tried, ought not to delay the taking of the assise,
because he says that Geoffrey de Mariscis had not entry by disseisin,
but by the feoft'ment of Robert, the grandfather of James de Keting,
whose heir he is. And this he prays be enquired l\v the assise. And
James de Keting likewise. Therefore let assise be taken.
The Jurors say that Geoff'rey de Mariscis had entry by feoft'ment of
Robert de Keting, and not by disseisin. Geoff'rey gave the tenements
to Hugh Tyrrell, with Geoft'rey's daughter, whom Hugli married. After-
wards Hugh enfeoffed divers tenants, doing to him and his heirs 71».
10^. of rent. Afterwards Hugh enfeoffed Geoffrey, his younger son,
of the '(/(•minium of the tenements and the rent; who died in seisin.
To whom succeeded Hugh TyrL41 as son and heir, who enfeoft'ed Adam
de Gules of the (/omitiiiim. and rent. Adam was in seisin until James
de Keting and tlie others, after said recovery of James de Keting,

But they say that Robert de Lysnekyll holds 1[5] a. of land charged
with OS. rent; and Alan de Lysnekyll holds other 15 a., charged with
5s. rent of the said 71s. lOd., [who] are not named in the writ.

Isabella Laueles puts as her attorney John de Appelby
Robert 1e Cryour against Will, de Cerney, of a plea of debt.
Ph. de Barri of Kilbryn complains of Luke de Stoghton, for that
Luke when he was receiver of the King's money in this county, re-
ceived of Henry Haket, the sheriff, 6 oxen of Philip, for a debt in
which Philip was bound to Will, de Berdefeld, serjeant pleader,
for which debt the oxen ought to be sold by the King's writ of
Fieri f acia,s ; Luke retained the oxen, and did not acquit Philip
towards William, to Philip's damage of 40s.
Luke comes, and says that Henry delivered to him 6 oxen which were
valued each at iOd., and which oxen were so weak that by debility
three died in his custody, and the three remaining were sold by the
King's precept, each at 4:0d., and that money he paid to the at-
torney of Will, de Berdefeld, and he proffers a letter of acquit-
tance of William's attorney.
Philip says that however the oxen were valued, each at iOd., each
was worth half a mark. And he says that Maur. son of David, his
bailiff came to Luke, and offered to acquit the 6 oxen, immediately
after they were valued, for the price iov which they were valued,
and he could not have them from Luke. But he says that Lvike put
the oxen in his plough, and sO' by heavy work three died in his plough.
Luke says he never ploughed with the oxen, but that they died
from debility, and not by his fault. And he says that Maur. son
of David never offered him to acquit the oxen. And he prays that it
be enquired. Issue joined.
The Juroi's say that Maurice, bailiff of Philip, came to Luke,
and offered to acquit the oxen for the price at which they were
valued. And Luke would not deliver them, but retained them to
his own use. And that three died in Luke's custody after Maurice
would have acquitted them.

John and Thomas his brother made peace with William. And
William cannot deny that John son of Daniel has goods and lands

Oliver comes, and acknowledges the letter to be his deed, but says
that he made the letter by assent of Will, de Monte, assignee of
said Bernard and William Amaubyn. And afterwards William, be-
fore the Justices last itinerant in this county, impleaded Oliver of
same money as assignee, and recovered the debt against Oliver.
Wherefore he prays that Will, de Monte come to answer with him.
And Will, de Monte present in court, comes, and acknowledges
the recovery of the debt. For he says that the 30.s. were owed to
said Bernard and William Amaubyn, who, because they did not re-
side in this land, they, according to the custom of merchants, joined
said AVilliam in said letter. And after the death of Bernard ?nd Wil-
liam, he wishing that said Will, son of Bernard and Will, son of
William should have their fathers' goods, although they are not
legitimate sons, granted to them all said goods, so that they should
find to him sufficient security to acquit him (William de Monte)
against the heirs and executors of Bernard and William Amaubyn,
and others who could exact any right in the name of Bernard and
William in these goods.
And Will, son of Bernard Amaubyn acknowledges this, and says
he is ready to find the security, and especially for said SO.'. And
Will, son of William and Ric. Locard undertake the same for Will,
son of Bernard. Therefore let William son of Bernard recover
against Oliver 30.s. And Oliver in mercy. And because William
cannot deny that he made the assignment to William son of Ber-
nard, of said 30.S-., by which Oliver bound himself for said debt after
the recovery of William, of same debt, before the Justices itinerant ;
and after the assignment so made by him, sued a writ of judgment
of the rolls of said Justices itinerant, for said debt, to be levied to
his use : therefore he in heavy mercy.

Peter came complaining to Benedict, Thomas and Robert, that he
could not do his work on account of the Serjeant, who took away his
sickle. Thereupon they followed the Serjeant, and finding him carry-
ing the sickle, they attacked him. And Benedict was about to strike
him on the head with an axe which he carried, but was prevented
by a woman who ran between them. On account of which Benedict
threw her to the ground, and they badly beat [the Serjeant], until
by fear of death which Benedict and the others said he would suffer
if he would not give the sickle, they took it from him not by his
giving but by their strength, who took it from his hands. Asked if

beat him badly, and afterwards put him in the stocks (in cepfis ex

of same [town. And it is shown] to the Court that the taking of the
sickle, which was the property of Peter, as the Jurors testify, ought
not to be called robbery, but rather deforcement done against the
peace. It is adjudged [that they are acquitted] of the robbery. And
for the deforcement done against the peace, let [Benedict, Thomas]
