Norfolk and Henry de Merton of co, Middlesex, to be mainpernors in chancery to have him before the treasurer and barons of the exchequer in fifteen days from Haster day to render his account to Robert de Wodhous, according to the form of the statute provided in this behalf. They are ordered to warn Robert de Wodhous to be then present with the rolls and tallies by which Robert de Gravesende rendered his account, to do and receive what is lawful in accordance with the said statute.
