To Master John Walewayr, escheator beyond Trent. Order not to intermeddle further with the custody of the priory of Huntyngdon, and to restore the issues thereof to the prior, as the king learns, by inquisition taken by the escheator, that neither Gilbert de Clare, late earl of Gloucester and Hertford, Hugh Daudele, the younger, and Margaret his wife, one of the sisters and co-heiresses of the said earl, nor any of the earl's ancestors were wont to receive anything from the priory in time of voidance, but had a porter at the gates thereof in time of voidance, who received his maintenance from the priory, and that they had no other administration therein, and H. bishop of Lincoln has confirmed the election of brother Reginald de Blundesham, canon of that house, as prior, to which the king had previously given his assent, as appears by the bishop's letters patent to the king. . 457 To the sheriff of Gloucester.
