Folios: 422-422v. Honor of Bolyngbrok [Bolingbroke], in one box, marked by the letter F. Settlement of a dispute.

First party: The prior and convent of Ormesby [Ormsby].

Second party: Master John Galle of Salfletby [Saltfleetby].

Place or subject: A dispute arose between the prior and convent and John Galle concerning annual rents sought and due on both sides. The prior and convent sought 4s 4d from a certain tenement in Salfletby [Saltfleetby] called Horrecroft, and John sought 3s for the moiety of the site and pond of a mill in Cokeringthon [Cockerington], of which Philip Galle was enfeoffed by John de Wyhum, who demised them to him. After negotiations it was agreed by both sides that full remissions of 3s of annual rent be made on both sides forever. Because in the petition of the prior and convent there were sought 16d of annual rent, which exceeded John's petition, he granted that he would pay those 16d to the prior and convent yearly forever at two terms, namely 8d at Easter within the octave, and 8d within the octave of Michaelmas, for all services, suits of court and all kinds of demands. On both sides all actions were remitted. Except that with the agreement of the prior and convent John reserved to himself and his heirs that they can, when they see it as expedient, seek by themselves or by those whom they shall wish, according to the form of their charter, that they might grind, without multure, in the mill nearest to that which is in the fee of Semplingham [Sempringham], the corn of John himself and of his heirs which grows in their lordship at Cockerington to their own uses, just as in the charter of the same prior and convent is more fully contained.

County: [Lincolnshire].

Additional people: Osbert de Thawell [Tathwell] and Lauretta, his wife. Witnesses: Gilbert de Cokerinton [Cockerington]; William, son of Andrew de Sumercotes [Somercotes]; Robert, son of John of the same; Robert de Sadword; Philip le Vavasur [Vavasour]; Andrew de Schupholm [Scupholme]; and William de Salfletby [Saltfleetby], clerk.
