R. 2. certain Appellants were written in this order first the
Duke of Gloucester that was son to King E. 3. next the Lord of Darbie that was after King H. 4. and then the Earl of Darby the next to him the Earl of Warwick father to the now Earl Defendant and then afterwards the Earl Marshall father to the now Earl Item also King H. 4. kept a great Councell at Westminster where debate was moved between the Earles of Kent and Arundell for their places in Parliament and likewise between the Earl of Warwick and the Earl Marshall brother to the now Earl Marshall where it was determined that the Earl of Kent should have place above the Earl of Arundell and that the now Earl of Warwick above the then Earl Marshall and so they were both set personally in possession In a patent of King R. 2. made to Thomas Duke of Gloucester of Holdernes and Okeham in the Testees the Earl of Warwicks father was set before the Earl Marshalls father Item in a letter sent to the Pope by King R. 2. for the matter of provision the name and seal of the Earl of Warwick was set before the Earl Marshall Item though the Earl of Arundell be not of the bloud royall nor ever bare the Armes of this land yet he hath had place in Parliament alwayes above the Ancestors of the Earl Marshall without interruption Item he requireth the Duke of Gloucester to call to his remembrance the Parliament holden at Leicester 2. H. 5. where notwithstanding the noble service done by the Duke of Exeter then being Earl of Dorset in the Dutchy of Guienne who was of the bloud royall and Uncle to the King and bare the royall Armes
