- Nature of request
- The consuls request that the two halves of the town be joined under the seneschalcy of Perigord, and that there be one bailiff to govern them.

By the peace the king of France has granted his half to the king of England for a rent.
- Nature of endorsement
- The seneschal of the Agenais should have the keeping, but he is to be ordered, that while he maintains the ancient customs of both parts, it should be governed by one bailiff.
