To Master Nicholas de Vordis, papal chaplain and auditor. Mandate to surrogate, etc., as below. The petition of William Lovell, clerk, of [the diocese of] York, B.C.L., contained that a cause between Peter Marsle, priest, of the said diocese, and the late William Burnolf, clerk, about the parish church of Welbery, in the said diocese—Burnolf's provision of which, obtained under papal letters, Marsle opposed, preventing possession—was introduced, on Burnolf's appeal, to the apostolic see, and was committed by the pope to the above auditor. The petition adds that while the cause has been pending Burnolf has died at the said see. The pope therefore orders the auditor. to surrogate Lovell to Burnolf, and if he find that Marsle has and that Burnolf had no right in the said church, value not exceeding 20 marks, to collate and assign it to Louell; notwithstanding that the pope has lately ordered provision to be made to him of canonries, with expectation of prebends, of St. John's Beverley, St. Mary's Southwell, and St. Wilfrid's Ripon, and of a benefice with [or without] cure in the common or several gift of the Augustinian prior and convent of Newburgh (Noroburgo), in the said diocese. Upon his obtaining Welbery the last mentioned provision is to be null as far as regards such benefice with cure only. Litterarum sciencia, vite ac morum. |

To the archbishop of Armagh and the bishops of Ferns and Meath. Mandate to collate and assign to Master John Preue, doctor of canon and civil law, papal chaplain and auditor of causes of the apostolic palace, the deanery of Dublin, value not exceeding 250 marks, which he obtained by papal authority on its voidance, being previously reserved, through Master Henry Bowet, then papal chaplain and auditor-general of causes of the court of the camera, obtaining by papal authority the archdeaconry of Lincoln. The cause which arose in the Roman court between Preue and Thomas Everdon, priest, of the diocese of Lincoln, who intruded himself, was committed by the pope to Angelus, cardinal priest of St. Laurence's in Damaso, who adjudged the deanery to Preue and issued the usual processes against Everdon, among others, of excommunication, deprivation of his benefices, and disability to hold them or others. Everdon has submitted and resigned, but it is asserted, as the pope has learned, that the provision to John does not hold good, and that the deanery became void otherwise than as above. John has hereby dispensation, also motu proprio, to hold the deanery together with his other benefices with or without cure, and to exchange [it] whensoever (quociens) it seems good to him.
