Manuscript The National Archives, series C 54, membrane 12 (class as printed in the calendar; consult AALT/TNA for the original roll)

To the sheriff of Devon, escheator in the same county. Order not to intermeddle with the half knight's fee that Alice Giffard and Emma her daughter held of Oliver de Dineham, as the king learns by inquisition taken by the sheriff that Alice and Emma held the half-fee by reason of the dower of Isabella de Curteney, wife of the said Oliver, so that the wardship of the half-fee does not pertain to the king on this occasion.
