To the collectors of customs in the port of Ipswich. Order to deliver to William Dunort or to John Cole of Malyns, John Waybom of Malyns, and Levinus de Loveyn, his attorneys, 500 sacks of the king's wool, by indenture, to be taken to parts beyond the sea, as the king has granted that he, for the great sums which he has lent to the king for his affairs, shall load 2,500 sacks of the king's wool in the ports of London, Kyngeston-upon-Hull, Boston and Bishop's Lynn, at the king's expense, and take it to Andewerp for his own advantage, as is contained in an indenture made between him and the king, and it is ordained by the council that he should have 500 sacks in each of the ports of Kyngeston, Lynn and Boston, whereupon the king ordered the collectors in the said ports to deliver the wool to the attorneys, and because it has been testified before the council that William cannot have 500 sacks in the port of Lynn according to the assignment aforesaid, the king wishes him to have 500 sacks of the wool in the custody of the said collectors.
