SC 8/66/3257
Date
[c. 1318]
Description
Petitioners
Roger de Pembrok (Pembroke), son of Roger de Pembrok (Pembroke).
Name(s)
de Pembrok (Pembroke), Roger
Addressees
King's council.
Nature of request
Roger, son of Roger de Pembrok, formerly Sheriff of County Tipperary, makes two requests:1) He asks that the Justiciar and Treasurer of Ireland be ordered to inquire into two payments, amounting to £40, made by his father at the command of John de Sandford, Archbishop of Dublin and Justiciar of Ireland, for which he never received an allowance, and that they might be allowed to him.2) He requests a writ to the Treasurer of Ireland to levy £30 owed by various debtors in County Tipperary, for which he can show evidence, and that he might be able to pay the rest of the £115 demanded of him in terms of 6 marks annually, as the king's father granted to his father.
Nature of endorsement
The Justiciar and Treasurer of Ireland are to be ordered that, when they have examined all the rolls and memoranda of the said Justiciar in the Exchequer, if they find that the £40 mentioned in the petition were paid for the king's benefit, as is contained in the petition, then they are to give him an allowance for them in the Exchequer. And with regard to the payment in instalments of the remainder of the debt, considering the estate of the person and the service he has done to the king, they are to do what seems to them to be done. The Treasurer is also to be written to, to have the £30 levied from the various debtors whose names the same Roger will give him, in exoneration of the same Roger.
