Avignon, 13 kal. mar. 1364

f. 225

Whereas John de Dounton, asserting himself to be canon of Chichester and curate of Bourn, whom bishop William excommunicated for offences and contempt, obtained from the pope that the cause should be committed to the cardinal of Dax, now bishop of Albano; and when the pope had translated bishop William to the see of London, John obtained, as is said, from the pope, a commission to the said cardinal, as though Thomas Trillek, as bishop elect, had consented to absolve John from the said sentence of excommunication, and Thomas, appearing before the said cardinal, did, in a certain way, as is said, consent; whereupon the said cardinal, without calling bishop William or his proctor, absolved John. But as the translation of William and the provision of Thomas have not taken place, and William is still bishop of Chichester, Thomas cannot prejudice the rights of the church and bishop. The pope is therefore prayed to declare that teh commission and power to absolve John with consent of the said Thomas as though he was bishop elect of Chichester is of no effect, unless the provision of Thomas takes place, and to issue a commission to annul what has been done in consequence of the same.

We replace John in the state in which he was before the pretended commission and absolution, and will that the processes against him should hols good as if the commission and absolution had not been issued.
