To the sheriffs of London. Order to cause Andrew de Sutton to be taken from prison and brought to the church of All Hallows, Haywharf, London, without delay, to stay there according to the ecclesiastical liberty, as S. bishop of London has shown the king that although Andrew had taken sanctuary at that church, and had entered the porch and held the ring of the door in his hand, and stayed there for some time, yet certain sons of iniquity drew him, who then called himself John de Catton, violently from the porch and led him to prison.
