To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. John de Northfolk, brother and heir of Master Adam de Northfolk, late constable of Bordeaux, has shown to the king that whereas the king lately ordered by writ of the exchequer Master Robert de Lessete, constable of Bordeaux, and Iterius de Ingolisma, his clerks, to inspect the rolls of all the said Adam's accounts for all the time when he was constable there, which were in their hands in the king's exchequer of Bordeaux, and to certify the treasurer and barons of the exchequer of London whether or not Adam in his account had charged himself with 2007. that he received of the king's money, in the eighth year of his reign, by the hands of Gregory de- Rokeslee and Orlandinus de Podio, then keepers of the king's exchange at London, and although Robert and Iterius certified the treasurer and barons that 2001. were deducted after Adam's death by the executors of his will from the debts due to him by the king, the treasurer and barons nevertheless exact this sum from Nicholas (sic): the king orders them to cause Nicholas (sic) to be discharged of this sum, if Robert and Iterius certified them that it had been deducted as above. 6. To Matthew de Columbariis, taker of the king's wines of his right prise throughout England.
