'Lately John s. of Luke s. of John s. of Luke Netterville petitioned the K. showing that one Robert Netterville clk was seised in his demesne as of fee of the manor of Dowyth; and he gave the same manor to one John s. of Luke Netterville, to have for life in tail male with successive remainders to the following, viz.:

John, son of the said John;
Luke, son of the said John;
Nicholas, son of the said John;
Thomas, son of the said John;
Fromund, son of the said John;
Henry, son of the said John;
and final reversion to the right heirs of the said John s. of Luke Netterville.

And the said John s. of Luke died, and after his death the said John s. of John entered that manor, as in his remainder, and died without heirs male; and after his death, the said Luke entered that manor, as in his remainder; and after his death that manor descended to Richard as son and heir of the said Luke; and after his death the manor descended to the petitioner, John s. of Luke s. of John s. of Luke, as brother and heir of the said Richard, who entered that manor. And the K. pardoned his entry.

On 14 Feb. [1407] 8 Hen IV, by letters patent under the g.s. of Eng.,1 the K, revoked those letters patent of pardon to John Netterville given under the g.s. used in Ire. Afterwards—by other letters patent under the said seal, by the advice of Thomas Butler, prior of the hospital of St John of Jerusalem in Ire, deputy of the K.'s son, Thomas of Lancaster, steward of Eng., Lt in Ire., on consideration that it was known to the said deputy and others of the K.'s council in Ire. that the manors of Doweth and Balygarth are not held of the K and the K. has had no profit from them for a long time past and there was no reasonable cause for taking them into the K.'s hands—the K. pardoned the said John all entries into the manors and granted that he and his heirs should have possession and receive the issues.2

Nevertheless, REVOCATION of these letters, since on deliberation with the justices it was seen that they are erroneous and dissonant with right and law and emanated unduly: because the manors came into the hands of Richard II by reason of the minority of Elizabeth, daughter of Richard Netterville, and they were committed to John Homylton during her minority by letters patent under the g.s. of Eng.; and especially because she has not proved her age.'3
