Mandate, on petition of king Edward, to give, after due examination, to John Aleyn, the king's clerk, the archdeaconry of Suffolk, reserved to the pope in the lifetime of John de Carleton (viz. 4 Id. Nov. anno 5), who, as king Edward's envoy, died on his way to the Roman court. Aleyn is to resign his rectory of Otteford, in the diocese of Rochester, and his canonry and prebend of St. George's, Windsor, but not his canonry and prebend of Wells.

Provision of the archdeaconry of Essex, value 50 marks, void by Roger de Freton obtaining the deanery of Chichester, notwithstanding that the said Henry has a canonry and prebend of Salisbury, which is to be resigned on his obtaining another of the same, and that he has provision of a benefice in the gift of the abbot and convent of Bury, which provision is to be void. Henry has studied civil law for two years at Cambridge.
15 Kal. Feb. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 37.)	Concurrent mandate to the chancellors of Salisbury and London, and Robert de Stratton, canon of Lincoln.
12 Kal. Feb. St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 39.)	To the bishop and dean of Aberdeen, and another named. Mandate to give to William de Grenlaw, canon of Moray, who has laboured for twelve years in Scotland as collector of dues to the papal camera, the archdeaconry of St. Andrews, which was reserved to the pope in the lifetime of William de Pelmore (or Polmore). Provision of the same was made to Grenlaw, who was dispensed to hold it together with the deanery of Glasgow and canonry and prebend of Moray, but in the dispensation it was not mentioned that both the deanery and archdeaconry had cure of souls attached to them. He afterwards obtained, by papal provision, a canonry and prebend of Glasgow, void by the removal therefrom of Guy de Ruppe, canon of St. Martin of Tours, on account of plurality, and thereby reserved to the pope, and at the same time resigned the deanery of Glasgow. Grenlaw was rehabilitated, had remission of fruits received, and was ordered to resign the said archdeaconry and the canonry and prebend of Glasgow: as, according to the constitution of John XXII. beginning Execrabilis, the archdeaconry is now void, it is to be given to him on his resignation of it.

Mandate to summon those concerned, and on finding the facts to be as stated, to remove William Kynewell, who has no degree in any lawful faculty, from the archdeaconry of Buckingham. In order to elude the ordinance of the present pope [Reg. 246, f. 340d., and 248, f. 227d.] requiring a return of benefices in England even though held or expected by papal authority, he having canonries and prebends of Lincoln and Ripon, value 140 marks, and the church of Surflet, in the diocese of Lincoln, and before the pope could order him to resign the said church, he exchanged it for that of Langperch (or Longport, Reg. 259, f. 39d.), of lay patronage, in the same diocese. The said archdeaconry was then, by a mandate dated Kal. Aug.anno 5, ordered to be given to John Skyret of Buckingham, rector of Great Horwood (Horewode Maingna); but as he died at the apostolic see before the papal letters were made out, it is to be given to Henry Piel, canon of Southwell, licentiate in canon and civil law, who is to resign the church of Werketon, in the diocese of Lincoln. [See Cal. Pet. i. 229. William de Gynewell.]

Reys is to resign his other canonry and prebend of St. Asaph. [See Cal. Pet. i. 278, 362, 525.]
