Addressees: King.
Nature of request: Hugh de Cressy states that he and others sued an assize of novel disseisin against Cecily Gerberge and others concerning the manor of Thurlby in Lincolnshire, which is adjourned to the common sessions after the feast of St Mary Magdalene; but that Cecily in the meantime has had Geoffrey de la Mare, her son, bring an assize of mort d'ancestor against them concerning this manor, and is happy to lose the manor in order to quash the first assize. A special day has been appointed for the mort d'ancestor and he requests a letter to the Chancellor to send a writ to Roger de Bankwell and his companions, appointed to hold this assize, ordering them not to do so until the county assizes have been held.
