To the treasurer and chamberlains. Order to cause Babilo Gentyl, merchant of Genoa, to have 50J. of the king's gift, which they detain from him in a purchase that Anthony de (sic) Pessaigne made from him in the city of London of 1,000 quarters of wheat for the king's use, Anthony alleging (attendente) that he ought to have received in measuring the same nine bushels for eight and twenty-one quarters for twenty, Babilo asserting on the contrary that he understood that he was selling nine bushels for a quarter, and twenty quarters only for twenty.
