To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Richard de Peshale, sheriff of Salop has shown to the king that whereas the king lately committed to William fitz Waryn the custody of Montgomery castle, to hold under a certain form, contained in the king's letters patent, and although from the time of that grant William had received the whole of the issues of the hundred of Chirbury in that county, by virtue of the said commission, as pertaining to that castle, so that Richard could not intermeddle in any way therewith, yet the treasurer and barons, having no consideration for the premises intend to charge Richard in his account at the exchequer with the said issues for the time when he held that county, and to cause those issues to be levied from him for the king's use, whereupon Richard has besought the king to provide a remedy; the king therefore orders the treasurer and barons to inspect their rolls and memoranda and if they shall find that the said hundred pertains to that castle, and that Richard has not received the issues thereof from the time of the said commission, as he says, then to discharge and acquit Richard of the said issues from that time. By pet. of C.
