Description:
Petitioners: The executors of Ralph de Tony, and Robert de Tony, son of Ralph de Tony.
Name(s): de Tony, Robert
Addressees: King.
Nature of request: The executors of Ralph de Tony make two requests:1) Although Ralph died in Gascony on the Friday in Pentecost week last, the news of this only reached England at the quinzaine of St John. The escheator immediately entered his lands, and wishes to levy the money that Ralph's attorneys had paid to his creditors, at Ralph's command, in the period between his death and the news reaching England. They request the King's grace, that they might not be charged for that period.2) They request the forfeitures, lands and chattels of the Welshmen from his lands killed in the last war against the King, as the King has granted to other lords with lands in Wales, in allowance for the expenses incurred in guarding his lands in Wales.Robert de Tony, who is in the King's wardship, makes two requests:1) He asks the King to grant him his lands, which are in the King's hand by reason of the wardship, paying the valuation and finding security at the Exchequer, as he has granted part of them to others.2) He states that his father had leased a manor at farm for three years, to pay for the King's service in Gascony, and the manor is seized into the King's hand because of the death of his father. He asks the King to permit the term to run its course, and that he might not be charged for it.
