To Jobn de Evesham escheator in Oxfordshire and Berkshire. Order, upon the petition of Thomas de Kent, to deliver to him a corrody or maintenance which he had for life in the abbey of Eynesham, and all his goods and chattels taken as forfeit into the king's hand and in the escheator's keeping it is said; as lately by letters patent the king pardoned the said Thomas the suit of the king's peace to him pertaining for the death of Reynold de Lyneham whereof the said Thomas is indicted or appealed, and any outlawry published against him for that cause; and now the said Thomas has prayed for restitution of the said corrody and goods so taken for that he was outlawed, and the king of his favour has granted the same of his gift to the said Thomas in consideration of his good behaviour in past time in the king's wars, and out of compassion for his advanced age. It is the king's will that the escheator be thereof discharged. By p.s. [26874.]
