1 Dodsworth (i. 44b) quotes a fine dated 19 Edward III. (1345-6), between Sir Thomas, son of Marmaduke Twenge, knt., and Walter, brother and heir of William de Essington of Lund, Chaplain, about a messuage and five bovates of land in Lund, the bovates being held by Sir John Hasthorp, knt., for the life of Isabella, widow of Robert de Essington.

The licence granted on the finding of this Inquisition is dated at Northampton, Nov. 28, 1380 (Patent

Rolls. 4 Ric. II., Part i. m. 4). The only variation is that instead of the seven bovates and four acres of the Inquisition, mention is made of seven bovates and a half, showing that in Lund a bovate was eight acres, and a carucate consequently sixty-four.

MLXXXIXD. In Octabis S. Trinitatis 2 & 3 Edw. II. (1309). Ebor. Marmaducus de Twenge et Hugo Pegge in misericordia pro pluribus defaltis etc. Iidem Marmaducus et Hugo summoniti fuerunt ad respondendum Roberto de la More de placito, quare ipsi simul cum Thoma le Charecter, Willelmo Cut, et Willelmo le Estorur ceperunt quendam leporarium ipsius Roberti, et eum injuste detinuerunt contra vadium et plegium etc. Et unde idem Robertus per attornatum suum queritur, quod prædicti Marmaducus et Hugo simul etc., die Lunæ prox. ante festum Purificationis B. M. anno regni Regis Edwardi, patris Regis nunc, tricesimo quinto [Jan. 30. 1306-7 in villa de Lundde in quodam loco, qui vocatur Hyngs, in bosco ejusdem villæ, ceperunt prædictum leporarium et eum injuste detinuerunt contra vadium etc., et adhuc detinent, unde dicit quod deterioratus est et dampnum habet ad valentiam quadraginta solidorum. Et inde producit sectam etc. Et petit quod prædicti Marmaducus et Hugo vadient ei deliberationem prædicti leporarii etc.

Et Marmaducus et Hugo veniunt, et vadiant ei deliberationem. Et idem Marmaducus respondet pro se et pro prædicto Hugone, et defendit vim et injuriam, quando etc. Et bene advocat captionem leporarii prædicti in loco prædicto et juste etc. Dicit enim quod ipse tenet manerium de Lundde, unde prædictus locus in quo etc. est parcella; infra quod manerium ipse habet liberam warrennam suam. Et dicit quod ipse prædictis die et anno invenit prædictum leporarium in prædicto loco infra warennam suam prædictam, qui cucurrerat in eadem et quendam cuniculum ceperat, et leporarium illum cepit, sicut ei bene licuit etc.

Et Robertus dicit, quod prædictus Marmaducus captionem super ipsum justam advocare non potest in hac parte. Quia dicit quod prædictum manerium de Lunde dudum fuit cujusdam Duncani Darel,1 qui inde obiit seisitus in dominico suo ut de feodo. Et de ipso Duncano quia obiit sine hærede de se, descendit manerium illud cum pert. quibusdam Emmæ, Helewisiæ et Muriellæ, ut sororibus et hæredibus, inter quas prædictum manerium cum pert. partitum fuit. Et de ipsa Emma descendit jus propartis suæ manerii prædicti cuidam Marmaduco, ut filio et hæredi. Et de ipso Marmaduco cuidam Roberto, ut filio et hæredi. Et de ipso Roberto cuidam Marmaduco, ut filio et hæredi, qui propartem suam manerii prædicti, et similiter propartem prædictæ Helewisiæ, quam prædictus Marmaducus filius Emmæ post mortem ejusdem Helewisiæ occupavit, et dedit isti Marmaduco nunc. Et de prædicta Muriella3 descendit jus propartis suæ prædicti manerii etc. cuidam Johanni, ut filio et hæredi. Et de ipso Johanne, quia obiit sine hærede de se, descendit jus etc. cuidam Helewisiæ, ut sorori et hæredi. Et de ipsa Helewisia cuidam Johanni, ut filio et hæredi. Et de ipso Johanni cuidam Jacobo, ut filio et hæredi. Et de ipso Jacobo descendit jus etc. isti Roberto, qui nunc queritur, ut filio et hæredi. Et

1 In 3 John (1201-2) Dunekan Darel rendered an account to the Exchequer of 10s. (Rot. Cancellarii, p. 294). The pedigree in these pleadings is irreconcilable with that given in the note to No. 752A, which is supported by contemporary evidence. The only way out of the difficulty is to presume that there were two persons called Robert de Thweng, father and son, the former marrying Emma Darel, and the latter Matilda de Kilton, and that in these pleadings they have been taken for the same person. The first Robert may be

the donor of the church of Legsby to Sixhills Priory.

* In 1204 Henry de Husseburne paid the King five mares to have a writ against Helewis Darel for a debt of fifteen marcs (Rot. de Oblatis et Finibus, 218).

3 In 1209 Walter, Prior of Thornholme in Lincolnshire, successfully resisted the claim of Richard, Prior of Warter, to the advowson of the church of Lund, calling Muriel Darel as his warranty (Pedes Finium Ebor., 6-16 John, No. 197).
