- Nature of request
- William de Multon and Joan his wife state that Joan was seised of various tenements in Haydock, Orrell, Barton, Swinton and Heaton, as her dower, from William de Holande, her former husband, and by the assignment of Robert de Holande, his heir, until she was disseised by John Travers, keeper of the forfeited lands in Lancashire and by William de Tatham, receiver of the issues of the same lands. She sued a writ of novel disseisin against John, and John de Lancastre, presently the keepers, before William Herle and John de Denom. The keepers attested before them that the tenements were in the king's hand and that they were charged with answering for the issues from them; so the justices surceased, and told her to sue to the king. They request justice and right.
- Nature of endorsement
- Faithful people are to be appointed in Chancery to enquire, in the presence of the keeper etc., into the truth of the contents of the petition and other necessary articles, and, when the inquisition has been returned in Chancery, if it is found to be true, then justice is further to be done there.
