agreed with Edmund Earl of Kent for the delivery of King Edward the â—econd and therefore impeached should be acquitted and restored to all their lands and goods It is enacted by the King and his Council That all such persons whose lands were seised into the Kings hands by reason of the road made by the Earl of Lancaster to Bedford or by reason of the Attempt made by the Earl of Kent shall be restored thereunto with the mean profits saving that if they have any lands of the Kings gift the same be of the like condition as others who have lands of his gift The King pardoneth the Earl of Lancaster and all others who were in his company in the attempt aforesaid all Fines and Ransoms The Mayor of London complaineth for that the Citizens were threatned by such as were of the Earls company aforesaid and now pardoned Whereupon after pardoning of them the King willeth that no party do seek revenge upon pain of imprisonment Edmund the eldest son of â—dmund late Earl of Kent and Margaret Countess of Kenâ— by their several Petitions require That the Record made against the said Earl may for the Errors therein be revoked The cause of the same Earls death seemeth to have been for that the said Earl sought to delâ—vâ—r King Edward the Second his brother upon report to him made by Roger Mortimer Earl of March and others before condemned that the said King Edward was living whereas he was long before dead for which the said Earl by Parliament at Winchester was condemned and excuted The King restored the said Edmund the son to the blood and lands of the said Earl his father whereof he died seised in Fee with dower to the Countess saving to the King the keeping and wardship of the same during the nonâ—ge of the said son It is also enacted That no Peer of the Land nor other person which procured the death of the said Earl of Kent should be impeached therefore other then the said Earl of March and Sir Simon Bereford Iohn Mautravers Bayones and Iohn Bevervile Richard de Arundel the eldest son of the late Earl of Arundel prayeth that he may be restored to blood lands and goods considering that the said Edward was put to death being not tryed by his Peers according to the Law and great Charter But for that the said Attainder was confirmed by Parliament the said Richard amendeth his Petition and prayeth in such wise to be restored of the Kings meer grace He was accordingly restored together with the Castle of Arundel which was given to Edmund late Earl of Kent the said Richard yielding the usual rents and saving to the King all such lands as were given to the said Earl of Arundel by King Edward the Second For the great service done by William of Montacute against the Earl of March and his great Favourers the King giveth to the said William in general tail One thousand pounds yearly and for One thousand marks thereof the Castle Town and Manor of Denbigh and the Counties of Roes Rewniock Keirm with the Commerotte of Dinmall with the appurtenances in Wales late Roger Earl of March's and the Castle of the Shrewsbury with the Custom of Aile and appurtenances in Dorset The King for the like consideration granted to Sir Edward Bohun Four hundred marks yearly in general tail to Sir Robert Ufford Three hundred marks yearly in special tail and to Sir Iohn Nevil of Hornby Two hundred marks in special tail In a Plea of the Crown holden before the King in this Parliament Thomas of Berkley Knight was arraigned for the death of King Edward the Second for that the said King was committed to the keeping of the said Thomas and Iohn Mautravers at the Castle of the said Thomas at Berkley in Glouc. where he was murdered The said Thomas saith That at the time of the death of the said King he lay sick at Beudley without the said Castle and was not consenting thereunto he thereupon did put himself in trial of Twelve Knights there named who found the said Thomas not guilty or that he fled or withdrew himself thereupon but that he placed under him Thomas of Gornay and William of Ogle who murthered the said King Edward the Second Sir Eubal le Strange and Alice his wife late the wife of Thomas late Earl of Lancaster shew How upon the death of the said Earl all the hereditaments of the said Alice there named were seised into the Kings hands until the said Alice was inforced to release the same whereof some part of the same were granted to her during her life the remainder to Sir Hugh le Dispencer the younger Of all which they pray restitution The King giveth unto them in Fee heriditaments parcel of the same to the yearly value of Twelve hundred marks so as the said Eubal and Alice do release to the King all their right in the residue It is to be noted That the said Alice was the sole daughter and heir of Henry de Lassey late Earl of Lincoln Sed non patet in Recordo William la Zouch of Mortimer and Elinor his wife pray to be restored to their lands in Glamorgan and Morganow in Wales the Manor of Hawley in the County of Warwick and the Manor of Tewksbury in Glouc. being the inheritance of the said Elinor the which they by the extort means of the late Earl of March were inforced to pass the same to the King by Fine In consideration of Ten thousand pounds the King restoreth them to their former estate Iohn Clavering is restored to the profits of the Manor of Massingham and Aswel-Thorp in Norff. as in the right of the Heir of Robert Thorp who held the same of him by Knights service and other Lands in Fee-farm of the King of the Escheat of Normand and not of any Tenure in Capite And by this it is proved that the said Heir held the moyety of the Mannor of Comb of the King by Knights service by Escheat and not in chief by Rent of Eleven pounds three shillings four pence and Fifteen shillings yearly Escuage For avoiding of inconveniences which might ensue by the debate between Sir Iohn Sherlton and Sir Geoffry de la Pool the King enjoineth them to keep the Peace duly It is enacted That all Sheriffs shall be removed and other therein placed and that general Commissions be awarded to enquire of the oppressions of Sheriffs Escheators and Coroners The like charge is given to the Earl of Arundel and Sir Iohn Carleton as before in the 20. for that debate was between them because the same Iohn was at the apprehension of the said Earls Father It is enacted That no Justice shall defer or stay the execution of
and cannot afterwards upon great suit be ended in the Chancery to have their right discussed even to the disherison of divers That remedy may be provided so as without delay the right may be discussed and the party restored to his Land if his right be found Let the same Law be kept as heretofore was done and if any man find himself grieved let him shew himself specially his case and he shall have right Whereas a man for Treason doth forfeit all his lands to the King of whomsoever the same be holden that where the King doth grant away those lands without saying To hold of himself the Law may be declared in certain Whether the Donee shall hold of the King or of the former lord And where the King giveth those lands to hold of himself le quell le Chartre est repellable eant regarde a les

same shall be by good advice among other Articles whereof new Law is required Whereas Commissions went forth to enquire of all such as have in lands Five pounds Ten pounds Twenty pounds Forty pounds and above unto One hundred marks which Enquests were with much diligence per milts Gentz des Countees thereunto sworne and returned into the Chancery whereupon went forth Writs out of the Exchequer to levy of some the double of some treble that by good Enquâ—sts was found for Archers Hoblers and men of war contrary to Law and also Writs went forth to levy of some small Towns which are neither Cities nor Boroughs Twenty marks Twenty pounds at pleasure without any manner of Process The Commons thereof pray remedy De si Come nostre Sieur le Roy ad promise de sun bon grace de fair droit as jouiz geeva que plendre se voudront If any such Imposition have been made the same was upon great necessity and with the assent of the Counts Barons autres Grantz and some of the Commons then present 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 wâ—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 wifeâ— 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 â—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 themselvâ—s have colourably and covertly by way of Usury bargained wâ—th the King and have imposed upon these goods great sums viz. upon every Sack of Wooll Twenty three shillings four pence de pardonne en le Bargain ou pluis sont tenus de prendre a very value les biens le â—oy on dapestera lui lour deniers que touz les auters poures de sa Come de

Custom too as much as they made chiâ—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
of some certain Commissary thereunto deputed in the Cathedral Churches they now make men come to places uncertain and being come they cannot have the Probate of Wills Sans faire raunceon meintenant ala quinte on partie des biens continues al testament The King will speak with the Archbishop and other Prelates that such wrong may be redressed Where a man hath issue a Bastard eigne and muliers and the Bastard demandeth Land as Heir Ne unque soit de son assent And he pleadeth that he is a Bastard And upon a Writ to the Court Christian he is certified a mulier that this Certificate turn none to prejudice but him that was party to the plea upon which the Certificate was made and his heirs but if the Demandant and his heirs bring any other Writ against any other Tenant and of other Land then he to be received to plead that he is a Bastard and that he have a Writ to the Bishop notwithstanding such former Certificate Let this remain among other Articles whereof new Law is required Whereas Murthers cuilleurs des gentz robberies manslaughters and other Felonies are done and committed without number and so favoured by pardons and procuring deliverance that the mis-doers and maintainers have no care of fear of Law That the King will ordain such remedy by Statute that such mis-doers and maintainers by no such means as aforesaid may be comforted and imboldned Touching pardons hereafter to be granted the King will advise with his Council so to do That no such Charter shall be granted unless it be for the honour and profit of him and his people and touching pardons granted heretofore he will advise with his Council of such allowance as shall be thereof made Whereas divers extortions and grievances are done to the people by the Collectors of the Wools and by the Taxors of other

points and no other process shall be made upon execution of that Statute then heretofore hath been used That where a man will sue to reverse a Judgement given before Justices in any franchise Royal as Chester or Durham and the Justices do record the pleas pleaded before them otherwise then they were pleaded the party plaintiff may be received to aver per pais the truth against the Record The Ancient Law before time used in this case shall remain That paiment be made for Victuals taken up in divers Counties by the Kings Commissions to the use of him and his children and that hereafter no

made That the Sheriffs out of the Issues of their Bailywick shall pay such of whom such victuals were taken Whereas heretofore because divers Merchants were slain and robbed on the Sea by the Kings enemies of France It was ordained by the King Peers and Prelates and by the assent of the said Merchants That all that would pass with Wools to the Staple should pay twelve pence upon every Sack for safe Conduct and certain Merchants undertook for the same and safely to conduct the Merchants unto the Staple and yet have not nor will not perform that Conduct and yet took the said twelve pence on a

longer stay The Justices before whom such Pleas are hanging shall give judgment as soon as well they may and if they cannot so do then the tenor of such Record and the process of such Pleas shall come into the Parliament and there shall be determined according to the Ordinance made in that behalf Whereas the King hath granted to certain persons the Office of gageing of Wines in the Dutch of Guyen taking for the Fee of gagâ—ing one penny sterling or the value thereof in other money and they which ought to use the Office of gaging these Wines refuse to gage any Tunnel of Wine and yet do wrongâ—ully take the said Fee of a penny for every Tunnel whereby the Tun doth not bear his right measure so as Lords and others do lose of that which they ought to have the fifth or sixt part of every Tun. That therefore the King and his Council will give such commandment to the Governors of the said Dutchy that no Tunnel of what part soever it be within Franchise or without be shipped over sea before it be gaged by the Verge according to the standard of England and the defect marked in the head of the head of the Tunnel upon pain to forfeit the said Wine to the King and also that the gager lose his Office if he do not that which thereunto appertaineth Let the Office of gager be performed per de ceo upon the pains ordained and that will work the effect through the whole business
