Nature of request
The petitioners request that they can have their goods or that they are paid, as they bought some woods from the earl of Kent at Woking paying for the same beforehand, and other people of the country from whom the ministers of the earl took victuals were assigned woods to a certain value, the earl delivering the woods when he was alive, but they have now been disturbed in this by the escheators.
Nature of endorsement
They should have a writ to the keepers that the people are able to carry away the wood that was cut during the time of the earl, but concerning the growing wood they should await the coming of age of the heir of the earl.
Places mentioned
Woking, [Surrey].
People mentioned
[Edmund of Woodstock], Earl of Kent
Geoffrey le Mortymer (Mortimer)
John Tailour.
Note
The petition dates to c. 1330 as it is clearly in the aftermath of the execution of the earl of Kent.
