Description
Petitioners
Thomas de Cheddeworth (Chedworth), then Chamberlain of North Wales.
Name(s)
de Cheddeworth (Chedworth), Thomas
Addressees
King and council
Occupation
Chamberlain of North Wales
Nature of request
Cheddeworth shows that he was ordered by the king's father to pay a sum of money to Hugh Audley. He paid part of this but the bill was not accepted because he had not been able to pay it, and the sum he had paid was not allowed on his account. He requests that a writ be ordered to the treasurer and barons of the Exchequer that he have an allowance, and charging those that ought to be charged of right.
Nature of endorsement
Let it be ordered to the treasurer and barons of the Exchequer that they call the executors before them and hear the arguments of the petitioner, and viewing the order and acquittance, doing what reason demands for the petitioner.
Places mentioned
Northgales (North Wales).
People mentioned
Hugh Daudele (Audley)
Ingelard de Warle, Keeper of the Wardrobe.
Note
The matter seems to have gone right back to c. 1317, but this petition is clearly early Edward III as it refers to orders made by Edward II. It seems that a date of 1327-1330 are likely.
