- Name(s)
- de Marechal (Marshal), Henry

- King and council.
- Nature of request
- Marechal requests the king's aid as he is a tenant of the king of a house in London and built a forge there, and Long, who held another forge in the same street, and Rokesle came and because the other forge did not attract as many suitors they claimed to the archbishop and Breton that Marechal's forge was a nuisance to Holy Church and to London, though a subsequent inquisition found this not to be the case. Long and Rokesle then tried to have Marechal ousted from the house by having the archbishop excommunicate him, but he purchased a prohibition, and for a long time nothing happened, but now Long and Rokesle again try and make him leave the forge.
- Nature of endorsement
- He should obtain a new prohibition of the king just as it began. And afterwards he should be attached if it is necessary, and the king will do what ought to be done.

- Richard le Long, marshal of the Archbishop
