Commentary & Paraphrase
Richard of G. complained that J. of M., on the said day and year, with force and arms, broke down the doors of his house to the value of 100 shillings, and took and carried away his goods and chattels, that is, wheat, barley, peas, and hay to the value of 100 shillings. The defendant said not guilty as to coming with force and arms, and as to breaking his doors and carrying away his goods, the defendant said that Sir N. of S. was seised of this house, of which the plaintiff supposed etc., as of parcel of his manor of Carlton, which he held in chief of the king. N. alienated the same houses to P. of W. and his wife K. without the permission of the king. Sir J. M., Escheator of the king, took an inquest of office of this rent, by which inquest it was found that the house was parcel etc. and held as above, and alienated without permission, and for that reason he seized the said house into the possession of the king, and he answered for the issues of the same house to the Exchequer. Then W. of F. wrongfully intruded (s'Abatist) into the same house upon the possession of the king, and tendered the same house by a fine in the king's court to this same R. who now complained, by reason of which this same J. of M., who was Escheator, assigned by the said J. M. by a commission, which he showed to the Court, perceived that the said Richard occupied the possession of the king, came and reseized the house and opened the doors and entered, and warned (garny) the said Richard that he remove his goods out of the said house. And the defendant did not think that the plaintiff could assign tort in his person (pere) for this breaking and carrying away of goods. The plaintiff said that the defendant broke his doors and carried away his goods to the defendant's own use and of his own tort without the reason that he had alleged; ready etc. The defendant said that he did it for the reasons aforesaid; ready etc.
