Description
Petitioners
John Malemeyns of Kent; William de Bremton of Kent.
Name(s)
Malemeyns; de Bremton, John; William
Addressees
King.
Nature of request
Malemeyns and Bremton state that they are pledges for Samson, and that they have in their keeping manors of the king in various counties and are in arrears of their account and do not have sufficient goods to pay. Pouer owes them sufficient money to satisfy the demand and the sheriff of Worcester was ordered to make the sum of her lands and chattels to which he returned that he had goods and chattels to the value of the demand for which he could find no buyers, and of this return nothing more was done. The sum is now levied of their goods so that they are on the point of ruin and they request that it is ordered that the sheriff answer by his return of the demand of the money of the principal and suffer them to remain in peace.
Nature of endorsement
He should go to the Exchequer and the treasurer and barons should do what they consider is to the profit of the king.
Places mentioned
Kent
Worcestershire.

Samson de Gretham
Aline [le Pouer], daughter of William le Pouer of Worcester
