Nature of request
[This petition is damaged. A duplicate, in better condition but with a different endorsement, is SC 8/238/11884.] Auger, Lord of Bats, states that [Oliver de Ingham, formerly Seneschal of] Gascony, promised him and five others, for their service to the King, that they would be made bannerets, and have all the franchises and honours [granted to other bannerets of Gascony]. This honour has been granted to the other five, but not to him. He therefore asks to be made a banneret, which will be to the King's advantage as he will then be bound to serve him with ten men at arms, [rather than himself alone]. He asks the King to order the Seneschal of Gascony [to inform himself of this matter], and to give him this grace if it is found [not to be to the King's prejudice].
Nature of endorsement
The Seneschal of Gascony is to be ordered to inquire into the things contained [in this petition], and to inform the king of this, and the king, thus informed, will speak his will on this.
Places mentioned
Bats, [Gascony, France]
Gascony, [France]
Nottingham, [Nottinghamshire].
People mentioned
[Oliver de Ingham, Seneschal of Gascony].
