Order to proceed to the confirmation of John de Godele, dean of Welles and canon of Exeter, as bishop of Exeter with all speed, and to execute what pertains to them in this matter, since the archiepiscopal jurisdiction pertains to them by reason of the voidance of the see of Canterbury, the said John having been duly elected, and the king having assented to his election and signified this to Walter, late archbishop of Canterbury, who delayed proceeding to the confirmation. By K. and the great council.
