Confirmation of the papal mandate under which he was to obtain the church of Sta[n]howe, in the diocese of Norwich, as having been so long void by the death of John de Peverel that it had lapsed to the pope, a doubt having arisen whether it was not by the resignation of the said John that it became void.

The said John neglected to exhibit, in accordance with the papal mandate touching the returns of values of benefices held along with benefices held or expected under provision of the pope, the taxation of his church within six months of the date of the said letters; he has been already absolved from the sentence of excommunication thereby incurred, and the fruits received from the church are to be remitted to him.

Kal. Sept. Montefiascone. (f. 81.)	To Richard de Cheshelm, of the diocese of Moray.

The said mandate stated, in accordance with a supplication made on behalf of the said Richard, and in his absence, by certain nobles of Scotland, that he was at the time of the issue thereof king David's clerk, the which he had been before, and now is.
10 Kal. July. Montefiascone. (f. 82.)	To Thomas de Tynn, monk of St. Martin's, Battle. Dispensation to him, as the son of a priest, to accept any office or dignity of his order short of that of abbot.

Burton is since deceased. The bishop is to absolve Garland, under caution and a wholesome penance, on his resigning the said church and making satisfaction for the said fruits and costs.
Ibid. (f. 85.)	To the same. The like. [A deleted copy.]
8 Kal. May. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 93.)	To Thomas de Hauerbergh, archdeacon of Anglesey (Argligie), in Bangor. Grant in confirmation of the provision made to him by the bishop of the said archdeaconry on its voidance by the death of Howel ap Gronou.

1367. 18 Kal. Jan. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 101.)	To the abbot of St. Thomas's and the prior of All Saints, Dublin, and the archdeacon of Down.

Mandate, on petition of William, master general of the order of Sempringham, to summon those concerned and make order touching Alesia, daughter of John de Everyngham, of Birkin, Gilbertine nun of Haverholy, who, having left her order, and having refused to obey the master's monition, was excommunicated by him, and then lived incestuously with James de Huthulle, layman of the same diocese, as if they were man and wife. On her refusing to appear before the said master, papal letters were obtained to the dean of Lincoln, who commissioned Geoffrey de Scrop and Raynald de Belvero, canons of the same, to hear the cause. The canons absolved Alesia, under caution, from the sentence of excommunication, upon which the master appealed to the pope.
7 Kal. June. Montefiascone. (f. 114d.)	To the bishop of Winchester. Mandate to summon those concerned, and to make order touching the case of Agnes, wife of Robert Marchamet, knight, who, after offspring had by them, put her away, and cohabited with other women, despoiling his wife, who now desires to be put in some safe place out of her husband's power.
2 Kal. Feb. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 117d.)	To the bishop of London. Mandate to summon those concerned, and decide the cause between John de Parre, clerk, of the diocese of Lichfield, present petitioner, and the abbot and convent of Whalley, touching the chapel of St. Michael, Cliderowe, which the said John obtained by papal provision on its voidance by the death of William Burton, rector of the same, and which the abbot and convent assert was appropriated to them, the said cause, partly heard by a papal auditor under a commission from Innocent VI. having remained undecided.
9 Kal. July. Montefiascone. (f. 118d.)	To the same. Mandate to summon those concerned and decide the cause between William de Wintriton, canon of Hereford, present petitioner, and the prior of the same, Thomas Joce of Felton, Thomas Burwehil of Thynsil, laymen, and Joan Rousel, touching the right of pasturage in certain meadows within the parish of Schuth (South) Wintington, and belonging to the prebend of Preston, held by the said William.
6 Id. May. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 119.)	To the bishop of Lichfield. Mandate, on petition of abbot Thomas, if the facts are as stated, to compel Richard de Scynosbucy (Seynesbury), monk of St. Werburg's, Chester, to return to the monastery and to the obedience of abbot Thomas. The said Richard, at the apostolic see, when abbot of the said monastery, of his own accord ceded his rule to the said Thomas, to whom papal provision was made thereof, and then, under pretext of having a personal exemption from the apostolic see, refused obedience to abbot Thomas and left the monastery.
4 Kal. June. Montefiascone. (f. 119d.)	To the archbishop of Canterbury. Mandate to summon those concerned, and make order touching the case of John Devenish, citizen of London, and Joan Blanch his wife, the said Joan being placed apart in some fitting religious place. After John and Joan had lived together as man and wife, Richard Moriz (or Morys, f. 132), of the diocese of Lincoln, asserting that he had married the said Joan, obtained three sentences in the cause heard before papal auditors, and got a mandate for their execution. It is asserted that these sentences were obtained by false, corrupt, and suborned witnesses; and that Richard was willing to let John and Joan alone if they gave him 100l. and a yearly pension of 5l.
1367. 4 Id. Nov. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 132.)	To the bishop of Lincoln. Mandate to summon those concerned, and to absolve John Deveneysch, and Joan his wife, of the diocese of Lincoln, daughter of John Blanche, from the sen- tences of excommunication incurred by them in the abovenamed cause, in which false and corrupt witnesses and forged documents were produced.
1368. 2 Kal. Feb. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 135d.)	To the official of Tournay. Mandate touching the will of Martin of London and Pardus of Paris, sons of Pardus, jeweller, who bequeathed the greater part of their property, mainly in England, to the poor and to pious places, and appointed as executors, in presence of the official of the archdeacon of London, according to the custom of that city and of the realm of England, Ventura, and Paul Johannis, citizen of Pistoja, both dwelling in London. Ventura, in order to appropriate the inheritance, falsely pretended that Paul was his debtor in the sum of 307l. and caused him to be imprisoned in London until he took oath to renounce his co-executorship. If the facts be as stated, he is to compel Ventura, under threat of excommunication, to release Paul from his oath.
