Order to deliver to Thomas son and heir of Robert de Halghton a messuage and half a virgate of land in Wythynton, which, as appears by inquisition taken by Walter de Gloucester, the late king's escheator this side Trent, his father held at his death of the heir of Richard son of Alan, late earl of Arundel, then a minor in the late king's custody, by the service of making two appearances (apparencias) yearly at the court of Upton, by which inquisition it was found that Thomas his son was his nearest heir, and that he was aged fifteen years on the day of the Translation of St. John the Baptist, in the 32nd year of the late king's reign.
