The executors of Elizabeth de Lascelles request remedy because Kilvington, at the command of Edward II in the 17th year of his reign, took from them 60 acres of wheat and 54 acres of oats valued at £24 3s 4d. They have received no payment and so cannot fulfil the requests of the testament.

People mentioned
Elizabeth de Lascels (Lascelles), lady of Escrick
John de Kilvington, bailiff of Pickering
