To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to charge the sheriff of Hereford with the ferm of the ancient ferm of the county, as the king has ordered him to cause the hundred of Wormelowe, in that county, to be rejoined to the county if it have been demised at ferm by the king or otherwise delivered, which hundred was of old times annexed to the ferms of the county, and to retain it in the king's hands, so that he may answer to the treasurer and barons for the ferm of the said old annexed ferm of the county, because it was agreed in the late parliament at Northampton that hundreds and wapentakes delivered by the king at ferm for term of life or otherwise that were of old time annexed to the ferms of the county shall be rejoined to the counties where the sheriffs are charged, and that sheriffs and their heirs shall have allowance for times past, and that henceforth such hundreds and wapentakes shall not be given or separated from the said counties.
