Nature of request
Corbrigge shows that he has served the king in war and peace for 20 years, and for the great losses he has suffered from the Scots gave to him the assay of market measures in Ireland to provide for the sustenance of his family, though no lands were found for him. He requests that he be granted £20 per annum to be received of the bailiffs of the town of Huntingdon until the king had ordained £20 of land wherever he wishes for the term of his life, and requests remedy and also upon money for horses and wages for which he has bills of the Wardrobe.
Nature of endorsement
The rent of Huntingdon is of the inheritance of the Earl of Lancaster and has been delivered to him. And concerning his debt, he should show his bills to the treasurer and chamberlains of the Exchequer and they should ordain that he be paid by parcels.
Places mentioned
Ireland
Huntingdon, [Huntingdonshire].
