Addressees: King and council
Nature of request: Adam de la Forde and Christina, his wife, state that although they hold a half hide of land in the vill of Hale in Hampshire of the king in chief by serjeanty, one Juliana Destourton has now brought an assize of novel disseisin, claiming that it is held of her; they can prove their case by the record in the Exchequer of a fine made by Esmond le Spygurnel and Clarice his wife, Adam's mother, to hold the land of the king as has been said, and ask that this assize might not be allowed to continue to the prejudice of the king and a double charge on the land, without better advice on the king's behalf.
Nature of endorsement: He is to have a writ to the Treasurer and Barons of the Exchequer that they are to inform the king in Chancery of the tenor of the process touching this business, and, as is said, kept in the same Exchequer. And when it has come into Chancery it is further to be sent under the foot of the seal to the appointed justices, so that they, better advised, might proceed further in the assize.
