(f. 9.)
To Thomas Harlyng, rector of Pulberg in the diocese of Chichester. Dispensation, as below. Boniface IX dispensed him to receive, and hold for five years with Pulberg, another benefice with cure, even if a dignity, major or principal respectively, and elective, personatus or office, in a metropolitan, cathedral or collegiate church, and to resign both for exchange or otherwise, as often as he pleased, and hold instead two similar or dissimilar incompatible benefices. The present pope, upon its being set forth to him that Thomas obtained the parish church of Compton, which, after holding it for some time with that of Pulberg, he resigned and obtained that of Yeucle, in the dioceses of Chichester and Bath and Wells, and that the end of the said five years was approaching, prolonged that term to ten years. The pope now dispenses Thomas—who holds, besides the said two churches, value not exceeding 120 marks, of Pulberg and Yeucle, canonries and prebends, value not exceeding 50 marks, of Chichester and St. Asaph—to hold the said two churches even for life, and to resign them and any other incompatible benefices which he may obtain, simply or for exchange, as often as he pleases, and hold instead two similar or dissimilar incompatible benefices.
