PLEAS OF THE CROWN 36 HENRY III [1 2 5 1-2]
In the same year, Arnold de Geraudon and Thomas Esporon being chamberlains, Nicholas Bat and Laurence de Frowik being sheriffs, for whom no one answers; Maud wife of John de Taterig and Richard his brother appealed John le Gerdeler of London in the husting of the death of John de Tateregge. They do not come and do not prosecute their appeal, so let them be arrested and their pledges to prosecute are in mercy. They have not found pledges except by faith (nisi per fidem). John le Gerdlere now comes and proffers a charter' of King Henry pardoning him his suit for breach of the peace arising from this death on condition that he stands to right in the king's court if anyone wishes to implead him. Publicly and solemnly it is proclaimed. And there is no one. So he is granted firm peace. It is testified that John was arrested and detained at Newgate and afterwards was released by the king's writ to twelve men on pledge to have him here on the first day and they did not have him. The sheriffs do not answer for the pledges, so to judgment on the sheriffs. The sheriff of Essex is ordered to distrain John son and heir of Laurence de Frowyk then sheriff, on all his lands and from the profits and to have his body here on Monday in the third week of Lent [9 Mar. 1276].
