Tollerton is unable to sell wool and stock due to the fear of war. The writer has spoken to the chancellor and the prior of Ellerton concerning the church of Aughton, and John [de Catton] will take the church of Catton provided the writer is his co-parcener. The king came to York 'this Thursday', and is staying at the palace, and the recipient's houses have been taken over by 'the earl'. The bishop of Chester, the earl of Cornwall, Beaumont and FitzWilliam came with the king, and are staying until Easter. The bishop of Chester has been sworn as Treasurer.
