108. [m. 6] In the same year, Peter de Gisors being chamberlain, John de Norhampton, who answers now, and Richard Picard, for whom Hubert Pycard answers, being sheriffs; Gailard, servant of Gailard de S olio, John the Cook,' and John, Gailard's cook, were fighting togethe r in the ward of Henry de Coventre wintry ward] in the house of Stephen Bukerel, who has died. Peter Arnald came up to settle the quarrel between them and Gailard, wanting to strike John with a knife, struck Peter instead, so that he died. He at once fled and took sanctuary in the church of St. Martin in the Vintry, where he remained for eight days and then escaped, so let him be exacted and outlawed according to the custom [of the City]. No chattels. Gailard de Solio, Bertram de la De and John the Cook were arrested for the death and delivered at Newgate before Richard de Coleworth and William Aguilon, justices [of gaol delivery], by royal writ, so nothing from them. The said [sic] Peter le Rus baker, Ralph le Large, John ad Crucem and Henry le Cordewaner, four neighbours, do not come and are not suspected. Peter was attached by Hugh le Rous and Ralph le Large, Ralph by Peter le Rus and Hugh le Rus, John by Ralph le Large and Richard le Coupere, Henry by Nicholas Hardel and Reginald de Suffolk. So they are in *mercy.
Because the sheriffs attached the neighbours one by the other, to judgment on them. [cf. 610]
