- Nature of request
- Two petitions from the Prior and convent of Bardney are sewn together:1) They request a protection with the clause concerning pleas for their abbot . . . to last until Pentecost, as the Prior of Sempringham and others have brought various writs against him, and plan to take him in some default in his absence; and if he were in the country he would have various muniments to help him, which cannot be acquired in his absence. They also ask the king to continue a general attorney until the aforesaid term.2) They state that monks who have been excommunicated are trying to enter the monastery in the absence of the abbot, by a false suggestion and by the fault of Robert de Lascy, official of Canterbury and canon of their mother church of Lincoln, which will prevent them from conducting divine service as they ought. They request that the king order the official to do common justice to the abbot in the matter of his pleas which are before him between him and his monks, so that no harm comes to the abbey in the absence of the abbot. They also ask that the pleas between the abbot and his monks be determined in Court Christian.
- Nature of endorsement
- To the first: he is to have a protection without the clause.To the second: he is to have a letter to master Robert de Lascy.For the others, nothing is to be done.
