- Nature of request
- [Petition in four parts:] 1) Arnaud for him and his other friends of the town of Sault for the service that they did for the king and for this that they rendered the town of Sault to the king in the time of the war, and they did not reside in the town as the king did not hold the town in the war. Arnaud requests, that as they lost their rents and lands, and they did not have provision as the other good people had, that their purveyance be made as was granted to them at the parliament at York and at Burstwick. 2) Arnaud states that he requested the bailles of Nancras and Saintonge at the parliament at York and at Burstwick paying as much as any other will wish to give in payment of his wages and debts, and it was granted to him, and he has had nothing. He requests that they be granted to him in the manner requested. 3) Arnaud states that he has the keeping of the bailles of Pouillon and of Sorde, namely by increase, and he requests that the bailles of Nancras or Pouillon and of Sorde be given to him in payment of part of his debts. 4) Arnaud requests that the arrears of rent that he owes for the bailles of Pouillon and Sorde be rebated upon his wages and debts.
- Nature of endorsement
- Concerning to the first request, he should hold himself content of the grace made to him by the king. Concerning to the second, he should hold himself content of the baille which he holds in Gascony by grant of the king. Concerning the other contents in the petition, this is answered by another petition, and upon this he should hold himself content.

Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated to 1305-1306 as this petition seems to be part of an original file of Gascon petitions - SC 8/338/E1217-SC 8/338/E1260 - for which SC 8/338/E1228 seems to have been the cover petition. The dating of this group of documents is arrived at by the possibility of more closely dating several of the petitions in this group, and these are noted when necessary. In addition, almost all of the petitions bear the old PRO references to Diplomatic Documents 1542 and 1548.

The petition belongs to a probable original file consisting of SC 8/338/E1217- SC 8/338/E1260 of which SC 8/338/E1228 was probably the cover petition judging from its endorsement, see SC 8/338/E1228
