Reference
SC 8/41/2048
Date
[1318-1321]
Description
Petitioners
Bryce le Daneys.
Name(s)
Daneys, Bryce
Addressees
King and council
Nature of request
Daneys shows that Henry III granted to the earl of Chester by his charter the honour of Huntingdon, which county is divided into three. Daneys has complained by writ in the Bench that Holm distrained him in Rutland to come to the county and hundred courts against the franchise of the charter of King Henry and against the current king's confirmation. Holm has said before the justices of the Bench that he cannot answer without the king, and because the countess of Cornwall holds it at will from the king. He requests that he should be quit [from attending the courts] according to the purport of the charter, or that the king order the justices to proceed in the plea.
Nature of endorsement
He should explain the petition.
Places mentioned
Cheshire
The honour of Huntingdon
Rutland.
People mentioned
John de Hastynges (Hastings)
Gilbert de Holm, Sheriff of Rutland
[Margaret de Clare], Countess of Cornwall.
Note
The petition dates to the period 1318-1321 as that was the period when Holm was sheriff of Rutland (List of Sheriffs, p.112). The note on the guard ascribes a date of 1321, but it is not clear why the date is made more precise.
