Note
The petition is dated to? 1343 on the basis of the dating of the Chancery warrant in which this petition may have been enclosed (22 August 1343, C 81/285, no.14944). The guard note on that Chancery warrant questions the relationship, but the hand of the petition is appropriate for a document of that date.
