1253. 17 Kal. Aug. Assisi. (f. 115.)	Mandate to the archbishop of Canterbury to make provision to Richard. scholar, son of Matthew Anibald, nephew of R. cardinal of St. Angelo's, or his proctor, of a prebendal or other benefice with cure of souls in England, the cathedrals of York and Salisbury excepted, causing him to be received and installed, notwithstanding any oath as to the number of canons, or papal indult to the contrary. The pope has already ordered Master Peter called ‘Egyptius,’ canon of York, to make provision of a benefice in England to Anibald, clerk, son of the late Anibald, steward of R. cardinal of St. Angelo; but when provision was made to him of the church of Stentrop, in the diocese of Durham, and Master Walter de Merton, who held that church, opposed such provision, the cause between Anibald and Walter was at length brought to an amicable composition by the bishop of Bath, whose arbitration was confirmed by the pope; but since Anibald got little or nothing by this composition and provision, the pope ordered the prior of Merton, in the diocese of Winchester, and Master W. de Turri, canon of London, papal subdeacon, to make some provision to Anibald, who, however, became a Friar Preacher. The pope, at the said cardinal's request, transfers the provision to Richard.
2 Non. July. Assisi. (f. 116.)	Monition and mandate to the master of St. Leonard's hospital, York, to make provision to Roger called ‘Luvel’ of Weytheton, rector of Suttauton, the king's proctor, of some benefice in his gift with cure of souls, notwithstanding that Roger has other benefices, or any papal indult or other letters to the contrary. If this be not done, the bishop elect of Winchester and the provost of Beverley have orders to carry out this mandate.
1254. Id. Jan. Lateran. (f. 118.)	Mandate to the abbot of Waltham to cause Master William de Kilkenni, clerk, of London, the king's chancellor, to be received as canon of London on his resigning a certain prebend in favour of Alexander de Ferentino, papal subdeacon and chaplain, and to make provision to him of another prebend, the said Alexander having had conferred on him by G. cardinal of St. Eustace's, in accordance with the pope's verbal mandate, a canonry of London and a prebend, when void, which the pope confirmed by mandate addressed to Master Berard de Nimpha, papal writer, and Philip de Alatro, chaplain of O. cardinal of St. Mary's in Via Lata, directing them to install the said Alexander. They sent a mandate to the above effect to the dean and chapter, but the prebend, then void by the death of Thomasius de Anesty, canon of the said church, was in elusion of the above mandate given by the bishop to Master William, the dean and chapter contending that the mandate did not affect them, as the collation of prebends belonged to the bishop, and that the number of prebends and canonries could not be increased. Thus the said chaplain got nothing by the provision, upon which the pope ordered his chaplain, Master Rostand, to hear the proctors of both parties, and, on his report, the pope orders that Alexander shall have the above prebend, and provision of the one next void be made to William.
1253. 10 Kal. Dec. Lateran. (f. 120d.)	Mandate to Master Berard de Ninpha, papal writer, living in England, to make provision to the scholar Leonard, son of Angelo Boccabella, Roman citizen, on being ordained, of some competent benefice in England, in accordance with letters of pope Gregory, addressed to the bishop of Winchester, then bishop of Norwich, ordering him to make like provision to James, another son of Angelo. The bishop committed the mandate to Peter and James, clerks, of Ferentino, living in England, who gave James the church of Welewes, in the diocese of Lincoln, which he was unable to retain, as it was held to the uses of the monastery of Alliwell, in the diocese of London, and confirmed thereto by the pope; and, although the pope enjoined the same bishop that provision should be made to James of some benefice in her gift by the abbess of the said monastery James betook himself to the order of St. Augustine, so that Angelo had all the trouble and expense for nothing, in consideration of which the pope orders provision to be made to his other son Leonard.
1254. 13 Kal. April. Lateran. (f. 122d.)	Mandate to the bishop of Salisbury to make provision to Master R. treasurer of Salisbury, of some one or more benefices in his diocese to the value of 50 marks, in consideration of the pension of 100 marks paid from the treasurership to Master Marinus, [arch]bishop elect of Capua, until he gets a benefice or benefices in England to the value of 200 marks; for although the bishop, by papal mandate, made provision to the treasurer of the church of Colingburg, not worth 50 marks, the treasurer gave it up to Thomas, son of Philip Papazurri, Roman citizen, who contended that provision had been made of it to him by the pope.
13 Kal. April. Lateran. (f. 122d.)	Mandate to the bishop of St. Andrews and to Gamelin, chan cellor of the king of Scotland and papal chaplain, to make provision to John de Civitella, papal subdeacon and chaplain, of one or more benefices in Scotland, prebendal or other, to the value of 50 marks, notwithstanding any statute or indult to the contrary.
2 Id. May. Assisi. (f. 126.)	Mandate to the archbishop of Canterbury to make provision to John Chabaudi, clerk of T. count of Savoy, on petition of the said count, of some benefice in his diocese, prebendal or other, to the value of 40 silver marks, notwithstanding any statute or indult to the contrary.
3 Non. Feb. Lateran. (f. 130.)	Mandate to Master Berard de Nimpha, papal writer, living in England, to imprison for life and deprive of their benefices certain forgers of papal letters, and to cite to Rome Robert de Cokefelde, clerk, as it is said, of the seneschal of Lyons, Hugh de Mortuo Mari, rector of Bissei in the diocese of Worcester, William de Rothewan, rector of Struui in the diocese of Durham, Master Walter de Schamel, rector of Kington in the diocese of Salisbury, Raynald de Chanker, rector of Wakerle in the diocese of Lincoln, Gilbert de Sancto Leofardo, acolyte of the diocese of Lincoln, and the prior of Suwic in the diocese of Winchester, who are mentioned in the letters suspected to be false, that they may, if possible, prove their innocence.
5 Id. Jan. Lateran. (f. 133.)	Mandate to Friar John, a Friar Minor, papal nuncio in England, to make inquiry into the transference to human uses by many prelates of the realm of rights of patronage and advowson, granting them to lay persons by alienation or otherwise, sometimes by consent of their chapters, and, as the pope can hardly believe, by favour of the diocesans. Abbots also and priors of divers orders have obtained by purchase or other crooked contracts the right of patronage in parish churches, applying them to their own uses; other abuse of patronage, and acts of nepotism are reported. Such alienations, sales, or purchases of patronage and advowson are annulled, and restitution is to be made by those concerned, and a report is to be sent to the pope, that he may take such proceedings as may be necessary.

16 Kal. Sept. Anagni. (f. 165.)	Confirmation to David, archbishop elect, formerly dean, of Cashel, of his election, which has been opposed by the suffragans of that see, who alleged that they and the canons have the right of electing. It was also objected against him by the king's envoys that he had sided with the king's enemies. Papal letters having been issued to the bishops of Clonmacnoise and Leighlin and the vice-prior provincial of the Friars Preachers in Ireland to examine and report to the pope on the matter, the suffragans desisted from their opposition, and prayed the pope to confirm the election made by the chapter.

If they remain excommunicate for two months, they are to be suspended from the administration of sprituals and temporals; a term being fixed for the archbishop to appear in person, and the chapter by proctor, to receive according to their desert; notwithstanding any constitution or indult to the contrary.
