Cardewell (Cardwell).

Name(s):
|
de Cardewell
(Cardwell), John
|
Addressees:
|
[King].
|
Nature of
request:
|
Carewell
requests that the clerks of the Crown be ordered that they do not make a
writ to bring the Beltofts to Newgate as this is to their advantage as they
are currently imprisoned in Tickhill Castle for many felonies committed
against him. Their friends have procured for them to be appealed by an
appealer of Newgate, and if they are transferred this will ruin Carewell's
suit against them by oyer and terminer.

Nature of
endorsement:
|
[None].
|
Places
mentioned:
|
Tickhill
Castle, [West Riding of Yorkshire]; Newgate prison, [London].
|
People
mentioned:
|
Simon de
Beltoft; Thomas [de Beltoft], brother of Simon de Beltoft.
|
Date
derivation:
|
The petition
dates to c. 1321 as a reference in Chancery Warrants records an order to
the constable of Tickhill to arrest the Beltofts and others for their
assault on Cardewell (CCW 1244-1326, pp.522-3).
