The which manours the said Henrie and Ada did hold during the life of the said Ada, in peaceable and quiet possession. After hir death the said Henrie goeth into Gascoigne, where he remained stew|ard vntill the comming of Henrie the third, at what time the said Henrie surrendered his office, but the king importunate with him still to reteine the same, he flatlie denied it, and would no longer remaine there, suddenlie returning into England without li|cence or knowledge of the king, for which contempt the king greeuouslie incensed, in reuenge and for sa|tisfaction of the same, made the same lands to be ex|tended by Thomas Paslew and others, who by the kings processe extended part thereof to a [...]reble va|lue, after which extent returned into the chancerie, the king seized the manour of Bremesgraue, Bole|soure, Strattondale in Norton, & left in his hands the manours of Lierton, Oswardbecke, Cundoner, Wourfeld, and Wigutton, whereof the said Henrie died seized. Two yeares before which grant of the lands before said to this Henrie, to wit, in the twen|tith yeare of Henrie the third, the said Henrie Ha|stings made his petition to serue in the pantrée (as he was bound by tenure) at the coronation of eue|rie prince, the record whereof in the ancient written booke of the earls of Huntington, is in these words following.

The record by which Henrie Hastings executed the office of the panteller.

VIcesimo Henr. tertij quo coronata fuit regina Elionara filia Hugonis comitis Prouinciae a|pud Westm. factae sunt contentiones magnae de ser|uitijs ministralibus, & de iuribus pertinentibus ad eorum ministeria, sed respectuatur, iuribus sin|gulis saluis, vt tumultus requiesceret vs ad quin|dena Paschae sequẽtis, &c. Et Henricus de Hastin|ges, cuius officium seruiendi de mappis à veteri vendicauit officiũ illud, & habuit. Nam quamuis Thurstanus vendicauit officium illud, asserens suum esse debere à veteri, tamen rex repulsat, & admisit Henricum de Hastinges, ea die assignans eisdem diem de contentione finienda ad praedictum terminum. Extractas verò post prandium map|pas tanquam suas ad officium pertinentes recepit.

Henrie Hastings knight, sonne of Henrie, after the death of his father, finding himselfe greeued that the inheritance, which should haue descended vnto him from his mother, was so withholden from him for the offense of his father, contrarie to law and iu|stice, and without iudgement, but by the kings pow|er, pursued a bill against the king, therby to haue re|medie and restitution, for the supposed false returne of the extent which was made against his father; and vpon the same bill, this Henrie Hastings obteined a new writ to make a fresh extent directed to maister Thomas of Wimundham, Robert de la Laie, Ro|bert de Solham, Hugh Peeche, & Thomas de Braie, to vnderstand if the remnant of the lands to him des|cended, beside that by the king extended, would coun|teruaile the value of such lands as he should haue by descent from and of the earle and earledome of Che|ster, which ma [...]ter neuer being ended in his time, was afterward prosecuted of the Hastings from par|lement to parlement, vntill the thirtie fourth yeare of Edward the first, as more plainelie shall after ap|peare Of this Henrie, Hollingshed intreateth much in the reigne of Henrie the third: this man (being he that in the time of Edward the first, made title to the crowne of Scotland) maried Ione one of the daugh|ters of William Cantulpe lord of Aburgauenie, in the right of Eua, one of the daughters and heires of William Bewsa or Brewcusa, for I find both writ|ten, of which Ione this Henrie had issue Iohn Ha|stings his sonne and heire, Edmund which maried Isabell, & had great possessions in Wales: Ada first maried to Robert de Champane: Lora maried to sir Thomas the sonne of sir Iohn de Latimer, and Ione which was a nun at Notingham.

Iohn Hastings knight, sonne of the last Henrie, was borne at Asleghe, in the yéere of our Lord 1262, and in the six & fortith yeare of the reigne of Henrie the third. This man after his fathers death did (in the yeare of our Lord 1274, and the second yeare of the reigne of Edward the first, being the kings ward) demand the execution of his office of the pantrie, at the coronation of queene Elianor wife to Edward the first, but could not execute the same by reason of his nonage, and also for that he was in ward to the said king. After, when he was growne to full yeares, there arose in the yeare of our Lord 1305, and in the thirtie third yeare of the reigne of Edward the first, great contention betweene Anto|nie Beake bishop of Durham, this Iohn Hastings, Iohn Balioll, and Robert Bruse, for the manors of Penrith, Castlesoure, Salgkill regis, Lange Worth|bie, Carlaton, and of Werkine Tinehale, whereof Henrie king of Scots (kinsman of the said Robert Bruse, Iohn Balioll, and Iohn Hastings, whose heire they were) died seized in his demesne of fee. In EEBO page image 469 which sutes after manie delaies made, and manie summons against the said bishop, the plée went with|out daie, bicause the bishop must go to Rome. But after his returne the sute being reuiued and continu|ed, it went once more without daie, bicause the king seized the same into his hands, and held it all the time of his reigne. These things thus doone, and Edward the first departed, this Iohn Hastings as yet not ha|stie to renew his sute of the land, but rather to exe|cute his right of the pantrie, did in the first yeare of Edward the second, demand the executing of that of|fice, at the coronation of the said Edward the second and Isabell his wife at Westminster, which he ob|teined, and laid the clothes and napkins in the great hall by him and other his knights, one the tables whereat the king, the quéene, and other great states should dine, which (according as I haue seene noted) was in this sort.
