To Master John Walewayn, escheator beyond Trent. Order to cause dower to be assigned to Cicely, late the wife of Richard le Botyller, tenant in chief, upon her taking oath not to marry without the king's licence. To Thomas de Burgh, escheator this side Trent. Order not to intermeddle further with a bovate of land of Walter de Harum in Horneseburton, and to restore the issues thereof, the escheator having returned that Walter, who held the land of the king as of the honour of Albemarle, alienated it to Richard de Pouell for the term of Richard's life without the king's licence, and that Richard was lately beheaded for felony, when the escheator took the land into the king's hands, as the king does not consider it consonant with right that the land should be taken into his hand after Richard's death by reason of the latter's trespass. To Roger Carles, keeper of certain lands in co. Hereford.
