Order to cause David son and heir of David Strabolgi late earl of Athole, whose homage and fealty the king has taken, to have seisin of the manors of Possewyk and Westlexham taken into the king's hand by the death of John de Ufford, who in his life time occupied them of the king's grant, and after granted by the king to Thomas de Bradewelle, the grant to the said Thomas or any command to the escheator previously addressed to the contrary notwithstanding ; as it is found by inquisition, taken by the king's command after the death of the said earl concerning the lands which were his, that he held the said manors in chief by knight service, and little before his death demised them to certain persons for terms long since past.
