On the morrow, which was a
Sunday, [4 october] after the citizens had awaited the arrival of the said Roger until
the 1 third hour, he came, and then the Mayor and citizens accompanied
him to Windleshores ; where he entered the castle, the citizens remaining
without until evening. His lordship the King also then caused proclamation
to be made, that no knight, Serjeant, or other person, should presume
to say or to do anything affronting to the citizens, seeing that they
had been summoned to the peace of his lordship the King.
After this, there were sent on part of his lordship the King, the said
Roger, and Sir Robert Walraven and others, to inform the Mayor and
citizens that the King was not then advised in what form to make known
his will unto them ; but that they were to enter the Castle, and on the
morrow should learn the same. Upon this, they entered, and all of them
were lodged in the 2 tower in safe custody, the letters of safe-conduct
granted by the King availing them nought. They also remained there
throughout the whole of that night and the whole of the following
day [october 5] ; but at a later hour, were separated and sent into the
3
bailey of the Castle, and there lodged, all of them, the Mayor excepted,
Thomas de Piwelesdon, Michael Thovi, Stephen Bugerel, [and] John de
Flete, whose bodies the King gave to Sir Edward ; and they remained in
the tower. |
