However, he had both her sons arrested, and beat the elder so badly that he died, and is now lying in wait for her, so that she has fled to sanctuary. She asks that the parties be ordered to come before the King, and also John Chirch, sergeant of London, who arrested her elder son, to confess the truth of the matter on oath, and that the King might do justice to the parties without delay, on the evidence obtained by this examination. | Tower of London,London | Mentioned | View Incident page | ||
