That whereas recovery is had in Wapentakes Hundreds Court Barons in debts covenant and other actions there pleadable the Bailiffs of those Courts do fount distress de Chatull de viss in lien of Execution according to the usage of the County which so remain oft-times very long before greement be made with the Plaintiff that if gree ' be not made with the plaintiff within fifteen dayes after judgement the Bailiffs of such Courts by the Oath of three or four des mientz homes de la ville ou lezecution serra in the presence of the plaintiff shall apprize the goods so taken by force of the judgement to the very value and sell them and if they cannot find such as will buy then to deliver the same to the Recoverer at that value Let the ancient Law be held untill it please the King by his Councel otherwise to ordain That whereas it was lately ordained and assented by the King and his Councel that the men and horses of the Kings houshold should not be harbinged in any part of the County but by Bill of the Marshal of the house and that they should deliver those Bills to the Constables of Towns and should be harblnged by them and that the Constables should cause them to have such sustenance for themselves and their horses as shall be meet and should cause their victuals to be prised by men of the same Towns sworne and that they before their departure thence should pay the parties of whom their victuals were taken And also it was assented that the horses and harness might be arrested untill they did pay for their victuals But now they go from Town to Town and harbinge themselves without any Constable and take mens goods without payment or apprising And if perhaps they bring Bills to the Constable therein is no mention made for how many horses or for how long So as they charge the Country at their own pleasure and depart without making paiment That in every Bill mention be made for how many horses Livery shall be made and that no horse have more then one Garson The Bill to be delivered to the Constable and he to make the price by men sworne of the Town so as the parties make paiment from day to day for such victuals according to the price without other delays according to the Statute The King is pleased that this Article and every point in it comprised be kept in all points according to the form of the Statute That Writs of Attaint be granted in Writs of Debt and in all other Writs and Bills where the Demands or the Damages do amount unto Forty shillings as well in Enquest past as to pass The antient Laws shall remain until the King be better advised Whereas divers Ministers of the King and others do sue tam pro Domino Rege quam pro seipsis whereas the whole Principal and Damages recovered doth go to themselves and not to the King in which case a man cannot have an Attaint or a Writ of Error That in such case Writs of Attaint may be granted as well for Enquests past and Judgments given as for Enquests to pass and Judgment to be given Touching Writs of Error let them be granted And as for Writs of Attaint the same was never ordained That a Writ of Scire facias may lie in case of garnishment which issueth out of a Judgment or of a Recognisance as well of debt as of damages as in case touching Land and in every other case where garnishment lieth where the thing whereof Execution is demanded amounteth to Forty shillings as well of Execution awarded as to be awarded Let the antient Law be kept until the King shall be pleased otherwise to ordain That Judgments given in the Exchequer may be redressed and reversed if therein be Error in the Kings Bench as well as Error given in the Common-Pleas and not before themselves that gave the same for it is not likely that a man will have a good conceit against his own opinion The King is pleased that when any man complaineth of Error given in the Exchequer the Chancellor and Treasurer and two Justices shall be assigned by Commission to cause the Record to be brought before them in the Exchequer and the Process of the Plea wherein Error is supposed and the same to correct as shall appertain The Merchants of Cities and Boroughs and the Commonalty of the Land shew that the Merchants are disturbed to buy and sell the Commodities of the Land as Tin of Cornwall may now be bought by no Merchant but by one stranger Tidman of Limberghe who buyeth all and sendeth over the Sea And pray that no such Merchandise be sold in gross but to the Commonalty of Merchants That is a profit belonging to the Prince and every Lord may make his profit of his own That no person by the voluntary suggestion or Certificate of an Accuser be by Writ sent for to come before the Kings Council where they are often inforced to make Fines or to lay down great sums of money or otherwise adjournez outre le meer as hath been heretofore often done but that such grievances be not afterward done The King is pleased that hereafter such things be not done against reason That all men may freely pass Wooll over the Seas at their pleasure paying the antient Custom of half a mark which thing was ordained by the Kings Charter That Subsidy was granted for a time yet enduring within which time the King will advise with his Council what shall be best to be done therein for the good of the people That the Statute whereby it is ordained that Sheriffs and Escheators shall be sufficient persons within the County and they not to remain longer then one year may be kept The King is pleased that the Statute shall be kept but when a good Sheriff is found his Commission shall be renewed and he newly sworne That the new Custom lately set viz. upon every Cloth carried forth by English Merchants 14 d. and by strangers 21 d. and upon every Worsted cloth 1 d. and of strangers 1 d. ob and of every Lit. 10 d. and of strangers 15 d. may be taken away The King Prelates Counts autres Grantz will that this Custom shall stand for it is good reason that such a profit be taken of Clothes wrought within the Realm and carried forth as of Wools out of the Land rateable the Cloth as the Sack That the Statute of Winchester and other Statutes made by the King and his Progenitors be kept and that the people be not grieved contrary to these Statutes The King is pleased that the Statute of Winchester and the other be kept Whereas the Aviners of the King Queen and
enacted by the assent of the whole Parliament that the Staple of Wools shall be holden in places within this Realme according to the 27 th of E. 3. untill the Feast of the Nativitie of St. Iohn Baptist next ensuing And that every Merchant Denizon and Alien may during the same time buy any kind of Wools of what person soever bringing to Callice one Ounce of Gold in Bullion for every Sack of Wool After which Feast of St. Iohn Baptist the Staple shall be kept in such Towns upon the Sea Coast as to the Lords of the Councell shall seem good The Commons for the great affiance which they repose in the King granted that he by the advice of his Lords might make such toleration touching the Statute of Provision as to him should seem good untill the next Parliament so as the Statute be repealed in no Article thereof nor none disturbed of his lawfull possession so also as they may disagree thereunto at the next Parliament with this Protestation that this their assent being in very deed a Noveltie be had or taken for no example It is enacted that no man from henceforth shall be compelled to appear or answer before the Counsell of any Lord or Lady of any thing reall or personall appertaining to the Laws of the Land The Lords and Commons granted to the King one half Desme and the like Fifteen and one whole Desme and one Fifteen conditionally that if the King went not personally into France or Scotland against his enemies or that Peace were taken before with his said enemies that then the same they grant should remain to be imployed upon other defence of the Realm The King at the request of the Commons granted that between this and the next Parliament no Eyire or Trayle le baston should be kept nor no generall Commission of Oyer and Terminer granted without urgent necessity It is to be remembred that the grant of the Subsidies in the last Parliament shall stand in force The second day of December the Lords and Commons require the King that he would as largely injoy his Prerogative as any of his Progenitors did notwithstanding any Statute and namely the Statute made at Gloucester in the time of King E. 2. the which Statute they utterly repeal for which their tender affection the King giveth them thanks and granteth thereunto The print touching recognizance taken before the Mayor of the Staple cap 9. agreeth with the Record The Commons in open Parliament declared that if any treatie of peace or league were to be taken with the Kings enemies that it were expedient that the Duke of Guienne as the most honourable should go to the same treatie The King answered that he would the same if the Duke so pleased whereunto the said Duke did say that he was very ready The Prior of Holland in Lancashire complaineth of a great Ryot done by Henry Treble of Throngaston William his Brother Robert Gisseldon Robert Grubber Richard Sprat Iohn Greenbow and others for an entrie made by them into the Parsonage of Whitewick in the Countie of Leicester whereupon Iohn de Ellingham Serjeant at Arms by verue of a Commission to him made brought into the Parliament the said Henry Treble and Iohn Greenbow who were principall misdoers who upon examination confessed the whole matter and were therefore committed to the Fleet there to remain at the Kâ—ngs pleasure and after they made Fyne in the Chancery and agreed with the said Prior and found suertie for their good behaviour and so were delivered The Abbot of St. Oseches in Essex complained against Iohn Rechell for diverse imbraceries by him done and namely that the said Iohn should refuse the Order of the Duke of Lancaster therein where he had comprimitted himself thereto whereupon the said Iohn was caused to come into the Parliament where the Duke affirmed his Award there entred by word the which the Chancelour was charged to see the same Iohn accomplish The Stile of the said Duke was Iohn the Son of the King of England Duke of Guiene and Lancaster Earl of Derby Lincoln and Leicester Steward of England For that Sir William Bryan Knight had purchased from Rome a Bull directed to the Archbps. of Canterbury and York to excommunicate such as had broken up his house and had taken away diverse Letters Priviledges and Charters the same Bull being read in Parliament was adjudged prejudiciall to the King his Councell and in derogation of the Laws for the which he was by the King and assent of the Lords committed to the Tower there to remain at the Kings will and pleasure Thomas Harding oâ— Maintred accused Sir Iohn Sutton Knight and Sir Richard Sutton Knight his brother as well by mouth as by writing for that by their Conspiracie he was committed to the Fleet for the Major of Bradwell in Essex upon hearing of both parties for that the two Knights were known to be of good name the said Thomas was committed to the Fleet there to continue during the Kings pleasure Iohn Shadwell of Boghsteed in the Countie of Sussex was likewise committed to the Fleet there to remain as above for that he informed the Parliament that the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury had excommunicated him and his Neighbours wrongfully for a Temporall cause appertaining to the Crown and to the Laws which was adjudged by the Lords to be untrue Iohn Shepy Cleark Prebendary of Nassington in the Cathedrall Church of St. Mary in Lincoln complaineth against a Judgment given in the Kings Bench upon a Writ of Error between the Prior of Huntington Plaintiff and himself Defendant whereupon it was awarded that the said Iohn should have his Scire fac upon his case to warn the said Prior to be at the next Parliament to abide the order therein to be taken and to have there the whole Record of Process The like Scire fac and order was granted to the Deane and Chapter of Lichfield for a Judgment given in

The Preface to the Reader COURTEOUS READER HAving already published to the World a Chronological Epitome or Summary Collection of all the extant Parliamentary Councils Synods and publike State-Assemblies held within the Realm of Great Britain upon several Occasions from the Britons first arival in it under King Brute as our old Historians generally assert till the Coronation of King William the Norman Anno Dom. 1066. conteining the space of 2390 years or thereabouts after the computation of the Chronicle of Bromton and others And having likewise an intention if God shall vouchsafe me life health liberty opportunity and encouragements to collect and publish an Exact Chronological History of all the Great Councils Synods Parliaments State Assemblies and the several Consultations Debates Acts Edicts Laws Statutes Ordinances Iudgements Petitions Proceedings in them and Writs of Summons to them extant either in Histories or Records all other usefull Records from the crowning of K. William the first Anno 1066. till the end of the reign of K. Charls 1648. A most necessary profitable useful Work never yet undertaken by any to my knowledge tending much to the Honour of our English Nation the Dignity of our Parliaments and Great Councils the advancement of our Laws and Learning the information instruction of the present times and future ages in our Parliamentary and State affairs of greatest concernment the enabling Members of Parliament both to know discharge their Duties and maintain their antient Privileges Jurisdictions better than in former times the preservation of our usefullest Parliamentary Rolls Journals and other Records from Suppression Embezlement Oblivion to rectifie sundry Gross mistakes both in our printed Statutes Law-books and Vulgar Historians The compleating of which vast undertaking requiring more toylsom Study Cost expence and time than yet I can bestow thereon I thereupon apprehended that I could not in the Interim perform a more profitable Service to my Country conducing towards the furtherance of that great Undertaking than at the earnest importunity of the Stationer and some special Friends to contribute my best directions assistance towards the printing and publishing of this Exact Abridgement of the Parliamentary Records in the Tower of London from the reign of King Edward 2. unto King Richard the 3. collected as is generally voiced believed by that most eminent industrious Collector of our best rarest English Antiquities Manuscripts Leger-books Records of all sorts Sir ROBERT COTTON whose famous Name and Memory alone are sufficient to adde more praise and lustre to this Abridgement than any Panegyrical Epistle I am able to prefix thereto This Exact Abridgement being licensed for the Press before the Stationer brought it me to peruse I thereupon diligently read over the Copy belonging formerly to a person of quality curiously bound up gilt and written in a very fair hand wherein I corrected several verbal mistakes of the Clerk in the Transcribing and comparing it with another Transcript of mine own supplyed some blank spaces in it together with the Abridgements of the whole Parliaments of 21 E. 3. 4. 16. Rich. 2. the explanation of the Charter of the Stanneries in the Parliament of 50 E. 3. the Abridgment of the beginning of the 1. Parliament of 5 R. 2. to numb 14. with the end of 15 R. 2. n. 36. c. wholly omitted in the Stationers Copy without any alteration except in the Clerks misprisions in or addition to the Text it self to avoid the Censure of being an over-officious Critick in another deceased honourable persons Posthumus Work After which perusal of the Copy finding neither Notes of direction in the Margin nor Tables in the end of this Abridgement to direct the Reader readily to finde out the principal things or Names of persons therein comprised I thereupon supplyed these defects with such Marginal Notes and Tables thereto annexed as might render it most usefull to the Buyers comprizing the Principal matters therein contained together with the Names of the Nobles and other persons mentioned therein in Alphabetical Tables with the names of the Admirals Chancellors Constables Marshals Iudges Protectors Privy Seals Speakers of Parliament Stewards of the Kings House and other Great Officers mentioned in it in a Chronological Order with the years Sections Pages wherein they are recorded Which additional Supplements will render it much more usefull and beneficial to the Reader upon all occasions than it would have been without them The Subject matter of this Exact Abridgement consisting wholly of Records or Rolls of Parliament and the principal matters of greatest publike and private concernment in Peace or War debated adjudged transacted in this supremest Court of the Realm both for Iudicature Consultation with the Names of all the Nobility summoned to or created in our Parliaments never formerly published in print and generally unknown to most Judges Lawyers Historians Gentlemen Bookmen of all Professions will sufficiently blazon and proclaim its Eminency Utility Excellency Complacency and Desirableness to every intelligent Reader beyond all other late publications and uncertain Reports of private Persons or Cases lately published or any Histories yet set forth without any other Proemial Encomiums yea the manifold discoveries it makes of the Variances of sundry printed Statutes from the Parliament Records both in form and substance and of divers bastard Statutes put in print never extant on Record which Sir Edward Cook hath gleaned out of this Abridgement and inserted into his 4 Institutes p. 50 51 52. though he there assumes the first discovery and honor of it to himself alone will undeniably demonstrate how worthy it is the most serious perusal of the greatest as well as meanest Professors of the Law who commonly take all printed Statutes and Reverend Sir Edward Cooks oft mistaken Records for undoubted Oracles without comparing them with the original Records themselves out of over-much laziness or credulity If any supercilious persons shall disdain or slight it because it is but an Abridgement and so not comparable to the Records themselves at large or object out of Sir Edward Cooks Reports and Institutes who oft forgot this lesson himself inculcates Satius et tutius est petere fontes quam sectari rivulos I answer That though
nor Ordinance but only the Kings Answer by the Archbishops mouth to the Commons prayer That the Commons were only Petitioners and THAT ALL JUDGEMENTS APPERTAIN UNTO THE KING AND LORDS unlesse it were in Statutes c. After which he subjoyns Rot. Parl. 2. H. 5. n. 13. Error assigned that the Lords gave judgement without petition or assent of the Commons when as there is no such Error therein assigned and the judgement there alleged to be erroneous was confirmed by the Lords as you may read in this Abridgement and more fully in my Plea for the Lords To pretermit many more of his Mistakes in his very Chapter of Parliaments which this Abridgement will both discover and rectifie I shall touch but upon one more In his 4. Instit. p. 10. he hath this passage Walsingham saith that in Anno Domini 1404. which was Anno 6 H. 4 in the writs of the Summons of Parliament there was added by the King a Commandement in the Writ THAT NO LAWYER SHOULD BE RETURNED KNIGHT OR BURGESSE But the Historian was deceived FOR THERE IS NO SUCH CLAUSE IN THOSE WRITS but it was wrought by the Kings Letters by pretext of an Ordinance in the Lords House in 46 E. 3. In which passage there are three mistakes together 1. A misrecital of Thomas of Walsinghams words That no Lawyer or Apprentice should be elected Knight of the Shire without any mention of Burgesses Direxit ergo Rex writes he BREVIA Vicecomitibus NE QUOSQUAM PRO COMITATIBUS ELIGERENT QUOVISMODO MILITES QUI IN JURE REGNI VEL DOCTI FUISSENT VEL APPRENTICII Sed tales omnino mitterentur ad hoc negotium quos conslat ignorare cujusque Iuris methodum FACTUMqUE EST ITA Whence he stiles it in his Margin PARLIAMENTUM INDOCTORUM To which he subjoyns in his Ypodigma Neustriae this observation In hoc Parliamento concessa fuit Regi taxa insolita et incolis tricabilis et valde gravis Cujus modum praesentibus inseruissem nisi Concessores ipsi Authores dicti Tallagii in perpetuum latere posteros maluissent Nempe sub ea tantum conditione concedebatur ne traheretur posterius in exemplum nec servarentur ejus evidentâ—ae in the sauraria Regia nec in Scaccario sed Scripturae vel recordationes ejusdem protiÌ„nus post datum compotum cremarentur nec emitterentur Brevia seu Commissiones contra Collectores vel Inquisitores hujus negotii de melius inquirendo A good president for the burning abolishing of all late records of illegal excessive Taxes Excises imposed and levied on the English Nation for so many years together without intermission 2ly A charging of Walsingham who lived in those times and knew them better than Sir Edward Cooke with a direct mistake and untruth That there is no such clause in the writs then issued as he recites when as it is most apparent by the writs themselves remaining on Record in the Tower in the Clause Roll of 5 H. 4. pars 2. m. 4 Dorso which I have perused with mine own eyes for my own and others satisfaction and by diverse Notes and Transcripts thereof which I have seen in Manuscripts that there was this clause inserted into all the writs of Summons then issued to exclude the Sheriffs themselves with all Apprentices and Men of the Law from being elected Knights Citizens or Burgesses Nolumus autem quod tu seu aliquis alius Vicecomes regni nostri aut APPRENTICIUS SIVE ALIQUIS ALIUS HOMO AD LEGEM ALIQUALITER SIT ELECTUS Et habeas ibi nomina praedictorum Militum Civium Burgensium hoc Breve Teste Rege apud Lichefield 25 die Augusti on which day the writs of Summon both to the Archbishops Bishops and Temporal Lords bear date all entred together in the same Roll. I wonder therefore upon what ground or misinformation Sir Edward Cook could so confidently averr the contrary and tax this Historian for a mistake in this wherein he was most right and himself alone so palpably mistaken whose confidence made me of his opinion till I sifted out the truth by a more diligent search of the Record it self not mentioned in this Abridgement 3ly In averring that this was wrought by the Kings Letters by pretext of an Ordinance of the Lords House in 46 E. 3. when that he stiles an Ordinance of that the Lords House was an Ordinance or Act of Parliament Ordinances and Acts of Parliament being both one and the same as â— have elsewhere unanswerably proved againsâ— Sir Edward Cooks new mistaken Doctrine made by the whole Parliament not Lords House alone excluding all Practising Lawyers all Sheriffs from being elected Knights of Shires or receiving wages for their Service in that Parliament for the reasons therein mentioned which Ordinance I shall here insert at large out of the Parliament Roll of 46 E. 3. num 13.

have also seduced Egypt even they that are the stay of the Tribes thereof The Lord hath mingled a spirit of Perversenesse in the midst thereof and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof as a drunken man staggereth in his vomit Neither shall there be any work for Egypt which the head or tail branch or rush may doe So as we may justly conclude with that of Psal. 118 8 9. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in Princes yea or Parliaments Wherefore Put not your trust in Princes in Parliaments nor in any son of man in whom there is no help yea Cease ye from man whose breath is in his nostrils for wherein is he to be accounted of For although usually in a way of ordinary providence In the multitude of Counsellers there is safety yet God many times in justice Leadeth the greatest Counsellers yea Parliaments themselves away spoyled and maketh the Iudges fools so that though they associate themselves together they shall be broken in pieces and though they take Counsel together yet it shall come to naught when God is not with but against them whereof we have seen many late sad domestick experiments to wean us from Deifying Idolizing of or over-much confiding in or depending upon Parliaments which have been so subject to Errors Deviations Abortions in former and later times Touching the Original of electing and sending Knights Citizens and Burgesses to our Parliaments it is very obscure and dubious Sir Robert Cotton the Author of this Abridgment In his brief Discourse concerning the Power of the Peers in Parliament in point of Iudicature affirms and proves That the Generale Placitum Universalis Synodus Magnum Commune Concilium of the Realm now stiled a Parliament was held Ceram Episcopis Magnatibus suis Or Coram Episcopis Principibus Regni in praesentia Regis This Great Court or Council consisting of the King and Barons ruled all affairs of State and controlled all Inferiour Courts Causes being referred and transferred out of the County and other Courts unto it propter aliquam dubitationâ—m quae emergit cum Comitatus nescit dijudicare as Glanvil in King Henry the seconds reign informs us and Bracton Britton with sundry Statutes and Records of later date with the antient presidents of Ethelwold Bishop of Wilton his sute against Leoftine and Q Edgin against Goda in the time of King Ethelredâ— the sute between the Bishop of Winton Durham in the time of St. Edward and one in the 10. year of the Conqueror evidence The power of the Peers in this Courtt and of certain Officers as the Steward Constable and Marshal fixed upon Families in fee for many ages was so transcendent that it seemed to be set to bound in the execution of Princes wills and grew fearfull to Monarchy Hereupon King Henry 3. when the daring Earl of Leicester was slain at the battel of Evesham by the dear experience himself had made at the Parliament at Oxford in the 40. year of his reign and the memory of the many streights his Father was driven unto especially at Runny-mead near Stanes wisely began to lessen the strength and power of his great Council weakning that hand of power which they carried in the Parliaments by commanding the service of many Knights Citizens and Burgesses to that Council NOW BEGAN saith he THE FREQUENT SENDING OF WRITS TO THE COMMONS THEIR ASSENTS not only used in Money Charge and making Laws For before ALL ORDINANCES PASSED BY THE KING PEERS but THEIR CONSENTS IN JUDGMENTS OF ALL NATURES WHETHER CIVIL OR CRIMINAL For proof whereof he produceth some succeeding presidents out of records When Adomar that proud Prelat of Winchester the Kings half Brother had grieved the State with his daring power he was exiled by the joynt consent of the King the Lords and Commons and this appeareth expresly by the Answer to the Letter sent by Pope Alexander the 4th expostulating a Revocation of him from Banishment because he was a Church-man and so not subject to Lay Censures In this the Answer is Si Dominus Rex et regni Majores hoc vellent COMMUNITAS TAMEN IPSIUS INGRESSUM IN ANGLIAM JAM NULLATENUS SUSTINERENT The Peers subjoyn this answer with their names and Petrus de Montford VICE TOTIUS COMMUNITATIS as SPEAKER or PROLOCUTOR OF THE COMMONS For by this stile Sir Io. Tiptoff Prolocutor affirmeth under his Arms the Deed of entail of the Crown by King Hen. 4. in the 8. year of his reign for ALL THE COMMONS By which passage and president it is apparent that in Sir Robert Cottons Judgement the Commons were not usually summoned to our Parliaments by writs till after 40 of King H. 3. and that purposely to curb and lessen the power of the Lords in Parliament This President he cites of Bishop Adomar out of the Leiger book of St. Albans falls in 44 H. 3. full 5 years before the Earl of Leicester was slain in which year Adomar died at Paris as he was posting from Rome into England to recover his Bishoprick Pope Alexander also dyed the same year 1260. in which I read there was a Parliament held but no mention of any Commons in it neither is there in our Records any Writ of Summons for electing Knights or Burgesses to repair to it in this year Onely I find there was a great difference then begun between King Henry and his Magnates Barones about the Ordinances made in the Parliament at Oxford which the King refused to observe contrary to his Oath from which he gained an absolution from the Pope I likewise read in William Rishanger his Continuation of Matthew Paris that this 44. year Magnates the Nobles not Commons sent quatuor Milites satis facundos qui Epistolam Sigillis suis firmatam Papae Cardinalibus exhiâ—erent containing many grievous accusations against this Bishop elect of Winton to hinder his promotion and return into England which Letter was sent from them sitting rather in a Military Councel at Oxford than in a true and real Parliament where Simon de Montsord Earl of Leicester Richard de Clare Earl of Gloucester MULTIQUE NOBILES IPSIS ADHAERENTES CONVENERUNT OXONIIS EQUIS ARMIS SUFFICIENTER INSTRUCTI finaliter statuentes in animo aut mori pro pace patriae aut pacis eliminare a patria turbatores as Rishanger relates Praeceperuntque omnibus qui eisdem servitium militare debuerant quatenus cum insis venirent parati veluti ad corpora sua contra hostiles insultus defensuâ—i Quod et fecerunt palliantes talem adventum eo quod in Walliam contra hostes Regis viderentur collectis viribus profâ—cturi as Matthew Paris himself records Neither was this Letter signed and sealed by Peter de Montsord as Speaker or

E. 3. tit 1. and which there cannot be read are contained at large The same Objections laid against the said Earl are to be engraven in the hearts of all Councellors about a Prince For this Earl being condemned of certain points wherefore he deserved commendations for others altogether untrue surmises as the half blind may see and for other some being true yet of no moment may teach Councellors to see themselves and thereby know that their well-doing not being well taken doth purchase death where the Princes wrath supplieth equity The Lords and Judges of the Parliament by the authority of the King for the objections laid against the said Earl adjudged him to be drawn and hanged which was there done with post speed This Bill requireth that the Judgment aforesaid might be revoked for errors in all points of the same viz. for as much as the said Earl was put to death without any accusation or being brought to Judgment or Answer The same Judgment is revoked and the same Roger restored to the blood and to all the Hereditaments of the said Earl The Judgment of the Lords made in 4 E. 3. tit 1. was so strange as they having Conscientias mille testes knew themselves so gauled thereby as in sundry Parliaments after they sought by all means to have an Act that no Peer should be put to death but by open answer by his Peers in full Parliament but long they laboured in vain but at last they obtained as before it doth appear Richard Earl of Arundel by petition sheweth How at the Parliament holden at Candlemas in the 1 E. 3. nothing was done touching the attainder of Edmond the Earl of Arundel his Father albeit he was thereupon put to death he prayeth now that he may be taken as Heir to his Father The Record and Act aforesaid fully agreeth with the recital of the said Earl Upon the view of which Record the said Richard alleadgeth that therein is nothing contained wherefore the said Earl should be put to death without Judgment or due process of Law after which the whole Estates adjudged the said Earl unjustly put to death they undo the said process and restore the said Earl to all benefits of the Law It is enacted by common assent that all the Ordinances made in the last great Councel assembled at Westminster touching the Staple be confirmed to continue for ever Petitions of the Commons with their Answers It is enacted that the Justices of the peace shall be of the best in every County that upon the displacing of any of them others be placed at the nomination of the Knights of the same County that they sit four times at the least every year that none be displaced without the Kings special commandment or testimony of their fellows That the surplusage of the Fines of the Statute of Labourers may be entirely distributed amongst the poor of the whole County and not to poor Towns only It shall be parted among the poor Towns only That the Writ of Estreat may lie in every action where the party shall recover damages of Estreats after the Writ purchased The old Law shall be continued The Print touching the shew of Woolls cap. 14. agreeth with the Record That remedy may be had in such cases where the King receiveth the profits of the Wards Lands as well of Socage as otherwise where no part of the same is holden of him The Law heretofore used shall continue The print that none be out-lawed without due process of Law cap. 3. agreeth with the Record That it may be ordered whether the Tenants of such as hold by Barony and are summoned to the Parliament shall contribute to the Payment of Knights Fees coming to the Parliament As heretofore so the same shall be The present pay be made of all Purveyances being under twenty shillings and of greater within one quarter of a year and that Purveyance be made without malice the print cap. 1 12. agreeth with it It is good to make payment accordingly to the first point and to redress the second That all Sheriffs be charged to make present payment for all purveyances for Callice The demand is reasonable The print touching errors and misprisions in the City of London cap. 10. agreeth with the Record That any one of many attainted upon a Writ of Oyer and Terminer may bring his attaint hanging his suit against the other The Lords will not alter the order of the Law The print touching the confirmation of all Statutes not repealed cap. 1. agreeth with the record That the Lords Marchers of Wales do suffer no distresses to be made on any English man coming into Wales for any other mans debts if he be no debtor trespassor or Surety As heretofore the Law shall be That no Inquest upon Conspiracy Confederacy Maintenance or such like be returned but by the Sheriff of the most lawful men and nighest in that part of the Country where such acts are laid that all evidences therein be given openly
but for that time agreed to prepare an Army of men and a Navy of Ships whereunto they lent the King great sums of money the which Navy and Army he had prepared and thereby remained to them and to divers good Cities and Towns in debt He therefore willed the Lords by themselves and the Commons by themselves to weigh the necessiâ—ies and to provide therefore and not to muse at the sudden calling of this Parliament considering the same was for the Kings honour and safety of the Realm He further sheweth how for the charges of the Wars born and to be born the Treasurers of the same were and shou'd be ready to make them privy Receivers of Petitions for England Ireland Wales and Scotland Receivers of Petitions for Gascoyne and other places beyond the Seas and for the forein Isles Tryers of Petitions for England c. as above Tryers of Petitions for Gascoyne c. as above Sundry Nobles are named to examine the Revenues arising of the Subsidy of Wooll and to examine all the Revenues of the Realm viz. the old Maletolt of Woolls the revenues of Priors Aliens and all other receits of the King whatsoever To examine what Fees the Nobles and Officers received in the beginning of E. 3. what Annuities were granted by E. 3. or the black Prince his Son to survey all the Kings Moveables and enquire of the same to view the expences of the Kings Houshold of Callice and other forelets and apparrelments of War the Revenues of Burdeaux the Subsidy of Cloth the possessions of Cardinals Rebells upon debts upon receits of wages for the Wars and of Rome-pence or Peter-pence and the arrerages due for many years So as the King release and ease them of the Subsidy on Staple ware granted in the last Parliament tit 29. and the 6d. of every 20. in Merchandize then granted tit 30. The Lords and Commons do there grant to the King the Subsidies of Woolls there granted in the said last Parliament tit 29. to endure for one year longer and a certain sum of money of every estate of the Realm from the highest to the lowest Only I note every Justice of the two Benches with the chief Baron to be 5 l. whereas no Earl was above 4 l. The Mayor of London paid 4 l. as an Earl every Alderman 40 s. as a Baron Every Advocate 40 s. as an Advocate at Law The King being in Parliament the 27 day of May released the demand aforesaid tit 23. thenceforth to cease William de Montacute Earl of Salisbury sheweth the whole Circumstances and process contained in the last Parliament tit 31 32 33. The Scire fac granted the last Parliament to warn Edmond Earl of March is rehearsed at large Upon the same Scire facias awarded to the Sheriff of Shropshire Iohn de Ludlow Sheriff of the same returned the said Edmond Earl of March to be warned Whereupon the said Earl of Salisbury by Sir Iohn de Monteacute one of his general Attorneys by Pattent the same Earl being beyond the Seas in the Kings service as also the said Edmond Earl of March came into this present Parliament and hearing the return of the said Writs and Process of the said Earl of Salisbury by his said Attorney proffered to assign the errors contained in the said Record The Earl of March being there present alledged that the Writ of Scire fac is not sufficiently served for that the Writ willeth the Sheriff to warn Edmond Mortimer Earl of March Son and Heir of Roger Mortimer late Earl of March the Son of Edmond de Mortimer and the Sheriffs return is that he hath warned Edmond Mortimer Earl of March Son and Heir of Roger de Mortimer Son of Edmond de Mortimer late Earl of March which cannot be intended the same person for that Edmond the Father of Roger de Mortimer was never Earl of March The Earl of Salisbury affirmeth the Return to be good and prayeth that upon assigning of examination of the Errors the Judgment may be reversed But for that the Parliament grew towards an end and weighty affairs were to be done for the King besides the difficulty of the matter the King gave day to either of the said parties to the next Parliament with all advantages and the matter to stand as it now doth King E. 3. of certain purchased Fee-simple lands infeoffed the Duke of Lancaster and others in fee by Deed and caused Livery and Seâ—sin to be delivered thereupon without condition by writing or word Long after the same King prayed the said Feoffees by mouth that therewith they should provide for the sustenance of the Friars of Langley and for the Nuns of Dertford and to provide perpetual Obit for the Countess of Huntington and another for the soul of the Countess-Marshal and for other charges Whereupon all the Justices and Serjeants to the King there named were straitly charged in full Parliament to say their knowledge whether the Charge thus made to the Feoffees after the Feoffment aforesaid should by Law be adjudged a Condition so as the said gift were made conditionally All who agreed that sithence there was nothing spoken before the gift upon the gift nor yet upon the livery that the Kings request after they were thus in possession could not make any condition whereby the Kings right is now thereby saved And note that this motion was made at the suit of the Executors of King E. 3. who were infeoffed as is aforesaid and receiving of the profits were forbidden the same Petitions of the Commons with their Answers The print touching the Confirmation of the liberties of the Church cap. 1. swerveth from the Record for the Record hath saving the Kings regality which is not in the print Besides the print is more large then the Record in other points otherwise the print touching the Great Charter and the Charter of the Forrest agreeth with the Record That Answer reasonable may be given to all their Petitions now or hereafter to be moved and that Statutes be thereupon made before the departure of every Parliament Such Bills as remedy cannot otherwise be had but in Parliament reasonable answer shall be thereto made before such departure That the perambulations of the Forrest may be newly rode according to the Walks of King E. 1.
