SIR JOHN FASTOLF TO SIR THOMAS HOWYS, THOMAS GRENE, AND WATKYN SHYPDAM.

[Sidenote: 1450 / SEPT. 7]

Has no word from them of the correction and engrossing of the damages

done to him by divers men in Norfolk, of part of which he sent a roll to

them at Castre a month ago. Sends John Bokkyng for an answer. Was often

damaged by the Duke of Suffolk’s officers in Lodylond, both by undue

amerciaments and distraining cattle at Cotton, and by the officers of

Cossey, of which there should be remembrances at Castre. Wrote also that

they should see the Bishop of Norwich about the letter left with him

concerning the award of Dedham. Is particularly anxious to know what

they have done about Rydlyngfeld, &c.

London, 7 Sept. 29 Hen. VI.

_Signed._
