When he heard that it had gone against him, he surrendered the messuage into the king's hand, so that the king sent letters under the privy seal to the justices, not to continue in the assize: so that they have since not dared to do anything. The king has since given the messuage to the Friars of Carmel, in disinheritance of Thomas and Joan. They request a remedy.
