Nature of request
Bernard de France asks that the Constable of Bordeaux might be ordered to pay him the wages that are due to him from the time when he was warden of the castle of Sompoii.

Peter (Pierre, Peir) Galician (le Galicien), Treasurer of the Agenais
[Edward II], King of England

Note
From the hand and content, this petition would seem to be from the early years of the reign of Edward III. Peter le Galicien was treasurer of the Agenais in 17 Edward II (8 July 1323-7 July 1324) (C 61/35, m.31), and possibly for some years after this. The orders to pay the petitioner on m.5 of C 61/41 are dated 18 August 1329, and are probably in response to this petition.
