- Nature of request
- Hugh, Prior of Kyme, recounts that he and his predecessors are seised of the parsonage of Croft, which Boniface IX united to the prior's use because its rents and revenues are now worth so little, so that the vicarage would be served by the prior's canons or other fit chaplains, which the prior has done since Battyng's resignation, taking the profits, until he was ousted when the vicarage was presented to Stretton by the King, who had been led to understand that the vicarage was vacant when it was not. The petitioner requests a writ of scire facias ordering Stretton to appear before the King in Chancery on the octave of St Hilary next to show why the King's letters patent to him should not be repealed and annulled and the petitioner restored.

- [On face] To the chancellor from the Duke of York: We have granted this bill if it seems reasonable to you.
