To the abbot and convent of the Cistercian monastery of Whalley in the diocese of Coventry and Lichfield. Grant, as below. Their recent petition contained that they have held for a long time the parish church of Blakeburne in the said diocese by grant to their said monastery, a competent portion being reserved for a vicar or rector, which church, sufficiently endowed, has been wont to be governed by secular priests presented by them as the patrons to the ordinary and by him instituted; that it has often happened that on the voidance of the said church they have, on account of the importunate prayers of magnates and nobles of those parts, and the fear of molestation thereby, presented secular priests as vicars or rectors who could not conveniently exercise the cure of souls nor be useful to the monastery and church, to the injury of the said monastery and church and of the souls of the parishioners. The pope therefore, in order to remove all occasion for molestation etc., grants them indult that in future the said church shall at each voidance be governed by one of their monks, a priest, to be presented by them to the ordinary, and by him instituted, the cure of souls to be exercised by the same.
