Document 2/140/78 (HMC 14, no. 18A)
- Description
- Pope Gregory IX writes to Master John le Romeyn, sub-dean of York, noting the case of Master John de Civitate Antina, papal scribe, and the church of Jedburgh; he asks that Romeyn show attention to the abbot and convent of Jedburgh in respect to a certain ecclesiastical benefice which he had been accustomed to assigning to secular clerics, if it is vacant at present or shall become vacant quickly, not hindering that if the pope had directed they be provided with the provision of another, they may procure [this], giving to him in the meanwhile a 100s. annual pension. He commands him, if the abbot and convent had neglected to carry out his mandate, to compel them to provide this payment of a pension, restraining the opponents by ecclesiastical censure, without appeal, and not hindering the constitution from two diets published in the General Council and the indulgence which was granted to the prelates of the kingdom of Scotland by the apostolic see, neither may they be brought [to court] outwith the kingdom.
