3507Robert Corby steals a boat and goods from Thomas de SwaffhamThe jurors say that Robert of Corby next to Rockingham was in the company of the aforesaid John Greyston while he committed felonies and that along with other unknown wrongdoers assembled with him at Cambridge on Saturday 22rd June 1381, and they went in a certain small ship belonging to Thomas de Swaffham in the water up to the market at Barnwell and entered with force and arms and came upon cloth, linen, wool, salted fish, dried fish and other merchandise and feloniously carried it away, and expelled the men and servants of the said Thomas from the said boat and sold it to a certain foreigner for ten marks, which [Robert] received. And that Robert was a common rebel and notorious wrongdoer throughout the whole uprising in the aforesaid county. And he is captured and accused of the aforesaid felonies, and he says he is in no way guilty of the crimes of which he is committed and places himself on his country. It was thus decided by twelve elected, tried and sworn who say upon their oath that the aforesaid Robert is guilty of all charges. Therefore by the decree of the aforesaid justices he is beheaded on the aforesaid day. And they say that Robert is a foreigner, and has no lands, goods or chattels in the said county.
