To W. count of Hainault, Holland, and Zeeland, and lord of Friesland. Request that he will cause satisfaction to be made to Humphrey de Bohun, earl of Hereford and Essex, for what is due to him from the count according to an account made by Master John Walewayn and his fellows, appointed by the earl, and by Master John de Florence and others of the count's council, appointed by the count, for what was due to the earl by reason of the dower of Elizabeth, his late wife, the king's sister, in the county of Holland, as appears by the count's letters patent in the earl's possession, a transcript whereof is in the king's chancery, for which the king lately requested the count to satisfy the earl, which he has not yet done. He is requested to cause an account to be made speedily of what has yet been accounted for, and to certify the king of his proceedings by the earer.
