- Nature of request
- Ralph Hauleye states that the collectors of the aid lately granted to knight the king's eldest son are distraining him for 40s. for a knight's fee in Covenham, whereas he only holds half a knight's fee there, and did at the time of the grant, as he can show by various pieces of evidence. He requests a writ to the Treasurer and Barons of the Exchequer, that, if they can find by inspection of this evidence, by inquisition, or in some other suitable form, that Ralph held and holds only half a knight's fee, they might make the collectors stop demanding money for the other half, and that he might be quit of this, notwithstanding that the collectors are charged in the Exchequer with an entire knight's fee, or that the entire fee has previously been levied through negligence.
- Nature of endorsement
- A writ is to be sent to the Treasurer and Barons of the exchequer that, if they can find by remembrances of the same Exchequer, or by inquisition, or in some other manner, that the said Ralph holds his lands in the same vill by half a knight's fee only, then, when they have received from him the portion that belongs to him for the said fee, they are to have him discharged of the remainder, notwithstanding that the said collectors have wrongly charged themselves in their account with a whole knight's fee for the said lands, or that such an aid has been levied from the same lands for a whole fee at any time in the past.
