Note (Additional information about the record)
- The thefts took place on the Tuesday before St Matthew (21 September), 16 Edward I (1288), and on the Wednesday after Michaelmas (29 September) in the same year. The petition would be likely to date from shortly after this. There is a slight possibility that the word 'cessyme' means 'sixth' rather than 'sixteenth': in which case the thefts would have taken place in 1278. But the later date is much more likely.
