| Text (English translation) | Richard etc., to all his bailiffs and all his faithful to whom the present letters come, greetings. Know that out of reverence for God and at the request of the most serene lady, lady Anne, our future consort, God willing, and from consideration of the good and faithful conduct of our subjects towards our progenitors and us, which we have experienced before the insurrections of certain rebels of ours, which have lately taken place against us and our peace, and so that our individual subjects might have happier hearts to remain faithfully in faith and love towards us, we have, of our special grace, pardoned to John Taillour of Morley in the county of Derby the suit of our peace which belongs to us from him, for all manner of treasons and felonies done or perpetrated in any way by him in the aforesaid insurrections, from the first day of May last until the feast of All Saints following, for which he has been indicted, accused or charged, and also outlawries, if any have been pronounced against him for these reasons, and we grant him our permanent peace on this, provided however that he did not kill the venerable father Simon of good memory, archbishop of Canterbury, lately our chancellor, or brother Robert Hales, prior of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem in England, then our treasurer, or John de Cavendissh, then our chief justice; and that he is not an approver or appealed of such treasons or felonies, nor did he escape from or leave prison and not surrender himself to the same prison. Provided always that the parties harmed in the aforesaid insurrections should have and be able to pursue any action by which it is not possible to proceed to a judgement of life, for recovery of their damages and losses in this matter against the aforesaid John, as might seem beneficial to them. In testimony of which thing we have had these our letters patent made. Witness myself at Westminster, the twenty-eighth day of December, in the fifth year of our reign. A charter in the same form is granted to John de Derby of Horsley in the county of Derby, whose date is at Westminster on the twenty-eighth day of December in the fifth year. A charter in the same form is granted to Henry Vepond of Horsley Woodhouse in the county of Derby, of the same date in the fifth year. |
