- Description
- R[alph Neville], bishop of Chichester and chancellor of Henry III, writes to Duncan, son of John, noting that he has written without success to Master Matthew Scott, chancellor of [Alexander II], to ask that payment should be made to Brother Arnulf, preceptor [of the Hospitallers] of Scotland, for the writer’s use, of the sum of 13 marks as the ferme for the past Whitsun term (1228) of the land of Seggie (FIF), in the writer’s hands by reason of his custody of the land and heir of Duncan de Lascelles. If the writer’s messenger sent for this purpose cannot find the chancellor of Scotland, the addressee is requested to pay the money to Brother Arnulf, and to do so in future years until otherwise instructed.
