Merchant of St Jean de Angely
Nature of request
Gomband requests that amends be made to him for the trespass made by the wife of Boyland who caused the loss of a tun on wine, as the sheriffs of London do not wish to to do anything. Gomband was moving wine from one cellar to another in the road of the vintners of London when Boyland's wife came mounted on a palfrey following his cart. She not wishing to wait for the tuns to be removed to make the cart more easily passable commanded the cart to be driven on and a wheel smashed one of the tuns. Gomband has pursued her and her husband but neither of them wished to do anything.
Nature of endorsement
He should sue in Chancery.
