PLEAS OF THE CROWN 54 HENRY III [1269-70]
207. In the same year, Hugh son of Otto being chamberlain and the same being sheriffs; Laurence son of Humphrey Duket killed Master William le Fremund in the ward of John Adrian [ ? Walbrook ward].' He comes and proffers a charter of King Henry in these words: 'Henry by the grace of God; at the instance of John de Valence, our grandson, we have pardoned Laurence Duket of London his suit for breach of the peace arising from the death of Master William le Fremund, of which he is accused, and we grant him firm peace on condition that he stand to right in our court if anyone wishes to implead him; letters patent at Westminster, 4 June 56 Henry III [1272]'. And there is no one who wishes to prosecute him, so he is granted firm peace. All the neighbours have died.
Nota 71. Pax per cartam regis [cf. 524 no. 71].
