- Nature of request
- Baleiss requests that the king read his letters of testimony of the mayor, jurors and council of Bayonne concerning the debt owed to him by Saintes, and the seizure of his goods by evil allegation, and that he will order his lieutenant that he is to have his letters of debt and recover the payments, and have other letters to the people of Bayonne so that he can have recovery of the goods there arrested by the name of Saintes.
- Nature of endorsement
- With regard to the first petition the king has found by letters of the earl of Lincoln that the money belonged to Saintes and he is withholding money from the king, so the king is retaining the money.

Note (Additional information about the record)
- The reference to the earl of Lincoln would seem to relate to his period of service in Gascony between 1295 and 1298. It seems likely that the petition dates to shortly after this, and a speculative dating of c. 1300 has been adopted.
