- King's council
- Nature of request
- Robert, son and heir of Hugh de Edlyngton, states that a process was initiated in the Exchequer while he was under age, and had no aid or counsel, concerning wools shipped by his father to Dordrecht, and because of his non-appearance, it was adjudged by the Barons of the Exchequer that his lands were to be seized into the king's hand, assessed, and retained until he received satisfaction - without any mention being made of Robert's minority. Robert is now of age, and ready to answer to the king for the wool if he is chargeable, but he claims to have several pieces of evidence to prove that he is not. He requests a writ to the Treasurer and Barons of the Exchequer to receive him to answer to the king on this matter, notwithstanding his default when he was a minor, in the same as he would have been able to answer before that judgment.
- Nature of endorsement
- He is to have a writ to the Treasurer and Barons of the Exchequer on the matter contained in this petition, to receive and answer him, notwithstanding the fault of his minority not being put forward, and when the evidence mentioned by this petition has been examined, if he is found to be chargeable, he is to be charged according to the evidence, and not according to the previous judgment.
