Nevertheless the King will not that such Imposition be unduly drawn in consequence Whereas the King hath ordained two Great Seals for sealing of Judicial Writs in the Common-Pleas and Kings-Bench for every of w●ich Judicial Writs the Commons pay seven pence and for Originals six pence That he will ordain a Small Seal for Judicial Writs so as men may pay but Three pence for a Seal of a Judicial Writ to the great ease of the people and then will more Writs be purchased to the Kings great advantage For now the suit is so hard and dear that the mean sort are not able to pursue their rights Unto poor men shall be given for Gods lake and it is reason that such as are able do pay as in former times hath been used That where Land is given to a man and his wife● their Estate is now dispunishable of Waste though they have no childe between them whereby often happeneth great damage and disherison to him in the Reversion That a Writ of Waste in such case may lie Let this remain among other Articles whereof new Law is required That Writs of Possession may lie of Lands devisable in case where they are not ●evised as of other Lands and in case such Lands be devised there to be saved to the Tenants their Answers Let this remain among other Articles whereof new Law is required That the Archbishop of Canterbury and the other Prelates have of late made a Constitution to give Tythes of Underwood only sold where heretofore no such Tythes were paid And further that now the Church-men by force of the said Constitution do take and demand Tythes as well of Great wood as of Underwood sold contrary to that which hath been used time out of mind Wherefore as well of one point as of the other they pray remedy The Archbishop of Canterbury and the other Bishops have answered That such Tythes are not demanded by force of the said Constitution but only of Underwood Whereas divers Aids have been granted to the King for maintenance of his Wars to the intent the same should be wholly to his profit divers Merchants by confederacie amongst themselv●s have colourably and covertly by way of Usury bargained w●th the King and have imposed upon these goods great sums viz. upon every Sack of

should have that advantage then they Also after their bargain at their suit there hath been stay and forbidding that no English Wooll may pass over Sea whereby the King hath lost his Subsidy and Custom too as much as they made chi●vesance by reason of which stay the Commons could not sell their Wools to pay their Fifteens and other charges And further some of the Collectors and their Deputies in gathering the said Wools have used great extorcion upon the people by false Weights Wherefore they pray the particulars may be examined in Parliament in presence of some persons to be assigned by the Commons to the end that the goods of the people taken for the Kings use may reasonably and wholly be turned to his profit so as the parties accused may not be excused against the King by fained and colourable Answer as between Merchant and Merchant The King will appoint some of the Sages of his Council to hear and determine the things contained in this Article And if any of the Commons can inform the King for his profit of any thing contained in this Article let him set it down in certain and the Justices appointed to enquire of false money shall have power to enquire of the Processes of such Ministers That the King by advice of his Council will provide remedy against the Popes Collations now of late made to Abbies and Priories which heretofore were never seen and are against the Liberties of the Church and to the disherison of the King and other Lords that are Patrons and blemishment of the Religious persons of England when these promotions shall be collated on strangers not fit and perhaps are Cardinals The King will advise with his Council what in this case shall be best to be done The Commons pray remedy That whereas men were about to prove Wills before the Official
Laws of the Realm also he will acquit himself by his Oath with one hundred Knights That he was not guilty of that for which he was banished and if his Oath be not due He will that the Archbishop Bishops and all the Priests of England do excommunicate him And yet if any man will say it against him he will defend himself by his body against all men except the Kings blood that it may please the King to end the same matters Forasmuch as Petition hath been made to the King that where villianage is alledged against the Demandant or Plaintiff the same should be tryed by the County where the partie alledging the exception doth lay the birth of the Defendant or Plaintiff to have been● which Petition is against the law and usage to the great mischief of the Commons as appeareth by the pleading at the Assizes and other pleadings which are to be pleaded and determined in the Counties where the demand is or trespasses done que duissent purtant estre trop delayes a disheritance de la dit come and that which worse is If the Petition should be granted every man would alledge this exception against his adversary and would chuse a County at his pleasure whereby any freeman might by such means be made servile For by such exception alledged by un grant de la terre against a mean person the same should be tryed in a forreign County where his greatne●s is and where the mean man nor his Ancestors never came therefore the King will have regard to these and other mischiefs if the Petition should proceed and to the good laws and customs of the land and them to maintain without regard to the Petition of any single person against the Law of the land Whereas Lionel the Kings son and Elizabeth his wife do hold the County of Hulnester in Ireland in right and heritage of the said Elizabeth and forasmuch as if the said Elizabeth should dye without Issue the said County is to descend unto divers Persons whereof some are enemies to the King which Parceners would enter into the said heritage and would move war against the King as well in Ireland as elsewhere that against this evill and danger the King in this Parliament will provide remedy by the advice of the Prelates Counts and Barons and others of his Councel Iohn Wettenham and Walter de Cheriton Merchants desire that whereas the Commons have complained against them by divers Bills in Parliament● Viz. that they have done divers extortions grievances and prejudices to the King and Commons Forasmuch as they have imployed their pains and diligence to serve the King and have therein suffered many mischiefs that the King will command the said Merchants to come before the Councel to answer whatsoever shall be objected and to declare their estate so as other Merchants hereafter may not doubt to deal with the King in Cheevances nor no other businesses as occasion shall require That none may chase or kill the Kings game when the same do scape out of the Forrests but only the Lords of the Woods and of the Soil where such game are found and that some certain punishments be ordered for them which shall do otherwise Whereas the Commons are charged to advise the King how the Peace of the land may be better kept To which was answered that in every County six persons of whom two to be des pluis grantz and two Knights and two men of Law and so more or lesse as need shall be and they to have power and Commission out of the Chancery to hear and determine the keeping of the Peace Et que counts traylebastoneries ne courgent as heretofore was assented by Parliament for they were the destruction of the people to small or no amendment of the Law or Peace nor punishment of Felons or Trespassers Wherefore because the Commons have so long continued together to their great costs and mischief they desire answer of this Bill lour deliverance Anno Vicesimo secundo Edwardi Tertii Rex c.
