Incident


Id	4058
Short Description	Simon de Waghen v. William de Patheley and other butchers of York
Details	More pleas held before John, King of Castile and Leon and Duke of Lancaster, and his fellow justices at York on Friday 5th September 1382. York. William de Patheley, butcher, Thomas de Skelton, butcher, John de Burton, butcher, John Dughty, butcher, Hugo de Wakfeld, butcher, Richard de Cottingham, butcher, John Clerk, butcher, John de Rouclif, butcher, Robert de Lyndesey, butcher, John de Bekerton, butcher, Henry Dughty, butcher, John de Laton, butcher, John de York, butcher and Peter de Tesdale, butcher in mercy for various defaults. The same William Patheley and others were attached to answer both the king and Simon Waghen, one of the bailiffs of the city of York, on a plea of contempt and trespass by bill. Simon makes plaint that from time out of mind any carcass placed for sale in the city had paid one silver penny a week, called 'shameltoll'. This went towards payment of the city's farm, as had been ordered by King John. Citizens, through the bailiff, had power of distraint for this money. William and the others owed 35d. of this toll, but when bailiffs attempted to make distraint, they resisted them by force to the contempt of the King and the delay of the payment of the farm against the peace, to damages of £200. William de Patheley and the others came by William Waldby their attorney, and say that they are in no way guilty of the aforesaid contempt, and place themselves on their country. Simon likewise. William claims that the toll is an innovation and demands judgement again. Thomas de Skelton denies John's grant of the toll [...]. [m. 3d] The others likewise claim that the toll does not go back as far as Simon claims. Jury, including men of York, called for Wednesday after feast of St. Matthew the Apostle; they confirm Simon's claim and assess damage at £20li. On Friday after morrow of All Souls, Simon comes by John de Sadyngton his attorney and says that all the damages have been paid.
