- Nature of request
- Bochard states that Peter and Joan Baldenham purchased a rent in Bulkington and held it peaceably for the life of Peter, and afterward Joan married Wyk who alienated the rent to the earl.

Bochard requests remedy in this case since the alienation should not have force.

- Let the muniments of the earl of Arundel be searched to see if anything can be found for the king to bar Bochard's claim, and the king is to be advised if they find anything.
