Places mentioned
Brassenx, [Gascony, France]
Gascony, [France].
Nature of request
William Arnold de Vile Neve states that there is a war amongst the gentlemen of Brassenx, where his lands are, and asks the king, for the good service that he did him in the war in Gascony, to take him, his lands and his possessions into his protection, so that no harm might be done to him by this war.
Nature of endorsement
The Seneschal of Gascony is to be ordered to maintain him according to reason, so that no harm is done unduly to his body or to his chattels.
Note
A note at the beginning of SC 8/291, signed R. L. Atkinson and dated 9 March 1932, states, 'Nos 14511-50 and 14551-80 in the next file appear to form an original file, or at any rate a conjunction of some duration. Such as can be dated appear to belong to the year 1305, or thereabouts, so the remainder may provisionally be regarded as belonging to this date'. This petition is therefore given a tentative date of 1305. Instructions to pay the petitioner his wages, dated 6 April 1305, can be found in Roles Gascons, vol. III no.4923.
