To the sheriff of Kent. Order to permit the prior of Horton to remain in his priory notwithstanding the king's order to cause alien men of religion to be removed from the sea coast, receiving from him sufficient mainprize that damage to the king or his realm shall not arise from him or any of his men or by his procuration, as William de Grandissono has testified before the king that the prior was not born of the power or lordship of the king of France.
