To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. William de Clynton and his wife have besought the king by their petition before him and council that whereas Edward I. on 11 October in the 34th year of his by his letters patent, pardoned William de Leyburne all the debts he owed to him, and certain debts which William owed to the said as tenant of certain lands which belonged to Ralph de Sandwytz and de Cornhull, of the inheritance of his wife before the.said pardon, exacted of William and Juliana as tenants of those lands by summons of exchequer the king will be pleased to cause them to be discharged of said debts by reason of the pardon to William ; and because it seemed the council that if William de Leyburn became the debtor of the king or of progenitors for the said debts, and entered upon the payment of them the said pardon, then the writs of pardon will hold good both for debts of the lands of his wife and for his own debts, the king sends to treasurer and barons the said petition, enclosed with these presents, them to view the said letters patent, the petition and the rolls and of the exchequer touching the premises, and if they find that de Leyburn became the debtor of those debts and entered upon of the same before his pardon, then to cause William de Clynton Juliana to be discharged and acquitted of those debts at the exchequer. By pet. of C.
