This sum was demanded of her in the Exchequer, but by the grace of the Queen of Navarre, she had a writ to search the rolls of the Exchequer and to inform the King at his next parliament why Philip was amerced. This has now been returned to this parliament, stating that it is as she says, and she asks that the charter might be [...].

Note (Additional information about the record)
- The will of the petitioner's husband was enrolled in the court of Husting in 1292, and the petition presumably dates to some point thereafter. The reference to the Queen of Navarre 'who God keep' might possibly suggest that the queen had since died; this is presumably Blanche, wife of Edmund, Earl of Lancaster, who died in 1302.
