| Text in Original Language | [Taken from Flower, 1905] Responsum Alexandri Archiepiscopi Eboracensis Anglie primatis et apostolice sedis legati. Quia tenore istius brevis inspecto ac contentis in eo et eorum circumstantiis debite consideratis, ex probabili informacione recepi quod infrascripti Thomas White tyghler, Henricus de Newark, et Ricardus de Botston occasionati fuerunt, et sunt, de diversis criminibus et feloniis, tam ad sectam partis quam aliis viis et modis, executionem ejusdem brevis in sui forma propter metum irregularitatis facere non potui nec facere tenebar, ex quo contenta in dicto brevi ad forum ecclesiasticum non pertinept et eorum execucio ordini episcopali et ejus honestati obviat et repugnat. Omnia tamen mandata mihi directa et dirigenda, que salvo ordine meo congrue exequi potero, paratus sum et ero facere execucioni debite demandare. Me igitur super non execucione brevis predicti habere velit magestas regia excusatum. Et Thomas de Grimeston ballivus dicti domini archiepiscopi libertatis sue Beverlaci sic respondet quod post recepcionem istius brevis predicti Thomas White, Henricus de Newark et Ricardus de Boston non fuerunt inventi in balliva sua. |
