They request a writ to the Justice of Wales to inquire whether he died seised of these manors, whether he died within the peace cried in Wales, and whether they are his next heirs; and if this is found to be so, that they might have delivery of the manors.

Note
A related petition is dated to 1328 by Rot. Parl. vol.II p.13a (no. 1). This has slightly different petitioners - Blethyn, Griffith, and Angharad, daughter of Eyngnon ap Criadok. This petition might perhaps be a later one, and Jorweth and Hywel the sons of the now deceased Angharad?
