| 3717 | Petition complaining that rioters have taken over the government of Beverley | The petitioners state that rioters and trouble-makers have taken control of the town government of Beverley, removed the common seal from the keepers and instituted new officials, contrary to the king's lordship. They state that these people forced them to enter certain bonds against their will, and since they dare not approach the town for fear of death, they fear they will have payment from them by default under mercantile law. They therefore request that the king order the town ministers not to execute any such bonds made since Pentecost last until the matter can be discussed by the council. Response: Adam de Coppendale, John de Ake, draper, John Gerveys, William de Dodall and Paul de Butby of Beverley send this bill to the council for themselves and others of the said town. It is agreed by the council that they shall have a [writ of] supersedeas until [the next] parliament. | Beverley,Yorkshire East Riding | Petitioner | View Incident page | ||
