[1] Where the Londoners would not permit the kings iustices to sit within the citie of London, contrarie to their liberties, the king appointed them to sit in the tower; and when they would not make anie answer there, a great tumult was raised by the commons of the citie, so that the iustices being in some perill (as they thought) feigned themselues to sit there till to|wards Easter. Wherevpon, when the king could not get the names of them that raised the tumult, no o|therwise but that they were certeine light persons of the common people, he at length pardoned the of|fense. After this, those iustices neither sat in the tow|er, nor elsewhere, of all that yeare.
