Petitioners
Garcies Arnold (Gassia Arnaut) de la Cassanye (Cassanie).
Name(s)
Cassanye (Cassanie), Garcies Arnold (Gassia Arnaut)
Addressees
King.
Nature of request
Garcies Arnold de la Cassanye states that he has served the king and his father in the war in Gascony, and that for that service he has lost all his goods, lands and rents in Vianne, to an annual value of £15 sterling, from the time of the first war until now. He asks that the Constable of Bordeaux might be ordered to give him compensation for these losses of £15 annually, from the time of the first war until now, and that he might be paid this sum in future until he has recovered his land and his damages.
Nature of endorsement
The king will send certain people of the Duchy, who, on the advice of the Seneschal and Constable and of the others of the king's council there, will do what is to be done for this request.
Places mentioned
Gascony, [France]
Vianne, [Guyenne, France].
People mentioned
[Edward II], King of England.
Note
The hand and language suggest a date early in the reign of Edward III, and it is likely that the references to the 'first war' are to the war of St Sardos, and the later wars would be the fighting in the early years of Edward III.
