(f. 206d.) |
To the bishop of London. Mandate, at the petition of king Richard and queen Anne, to summon John Macclesfeld, clerk, of the diocese of Lichfield, and collate and assign to John Pouere, priest, of the diocese of London, if found fit after examination, the preceptory of the house of St. Anthony, London, value 200 marks, dependent on the Augustinian monastery of St. Anthony, in the diocese of Vienne, and wont to be governed by canons thereof, not a dignity nor a personatus, without cure of souls and not elective. Macclesfeld desiring to become a canon of St. Anthony's, Vienne, the pope lately ordered James Dardani, canon of Salerno, collector to the camera in England, to cause him to be received therein. The pope also ordered the collector by other letters to collate and assign to him, after he should have worn the habit for three months, the said preceptory, which was void by the death of Richard Brighous, and which Macclesfeld had administered under nomination by king Richard and without other canonical institution; the pope moreover specially reserving the preceptory to himself, 16 Kal. Jan. anno 1. Afterwards, the above Pouere desiring to become a canon of the said monastery, the pope ordered the bishop of London to admit him thereto. He has recently learned that Macclesfeld has not taken the habit, and that the collector has therefore not made provision to him of the preceptory. [See Reg. Lat. xxiv. f. 71d.] |
