Note (Additional information about the record)
- Petitions on this subject from the petitioner and James White, Christopher White and Stephen Gernon, are enrolled on the rolls of the parliaments held at Westminster in January 5 Henry IV (1404) (Rot. Parl. vol.III p.537a-b), with an exemplification, made at the request of the petitioner, dated at Westminster, 26 April 1404 (CPR 1401-5 p.388), and on the roll of the parliament held at Coventry in October 6 Henry IV (1404) (Rot. Parl. vol.III, p.552a-b), with an exemplification dated at Westminster, 20 January 1405 (CPR 1401-5 p.481). Another version of this petition is edited in Rot. Parl. vol.111 p.484b. This petition does not seem, either in the petition itself or in its response, to be identical with any of them, and of course is only from one of the petitioners: nevertheless, it receives a similar response, and appears to date from the same time. It cannot be much earlier, as the pardon to Bartholomew Verdon (CPR 1401-5 p. 240) is dated at Westminster, 4 July 1403.
