4359Simon vicar of Mildenhall threatens Ralph atte WykSimon, vicar of Mildenhall, otherwise arrested by Henry English, sheriff of Cambridgeshire, on suspicion of insurrection during the time of the rumour and disturbance, and at the complaint of Ralph atte Wyk, king's escheator in the aforesaid county, for the reason that [Simon], with many other malefactors by him congregated and arrayed in a warlike manner, on Friday 14th June 1381, came to the house of the aforesaid Ralph at Newmarket in the county of Cambridgeshire, and insulted him, and threatened him with beheading, and destruction of his dwelling, if he did not deliver up to him the daughter of Ralph de Walsham at Mildenhall, lately abducted by others and alleged to have been received by Ralph atte Wyke, as the aforesaid Simon the vicar asserted, and of which accusation the same Ralph atte Wyke is not guilty. And the aforesaid vicar continued in his malicious and iniquitous purpose until the same Ralph and his friends paid him a fine to stand in his favour, to the great injury of Ralph, his wife and family, and manifest affright and disturbance of the whole town, and in contempt of the King's peace.
