To Richard de Wylughby and his fellows, justices appointed to hold pleas before the king. Order to supersede holding the plea moved before them between the king and William, archbishop of York, concerning a trespass and contempt of the king made by the archbishop in confirming the late election of Robert de Graystan, monk of the cathedral church of Durham, to be bishop there and in consecrating him bishop, the said Robert not being accepted by the king nor the royal assent obtained in the customary manner, and not to molest the archbishop for that cause, as the king has pardoned the archbishop the said trespass. [/edera.
