false appeal. His amercement, a half-mark; pledge for it,
Ralph Giffard.

of Kellio and Peter of Lancarf of robbing her of twenty
shillings and eight pence, and of a cloak, price a
half-mark. And it is testified by the jurors that they did
not rob her, and that she is a hireling, and that a man lay
with her in a garden, and the boys hooted her, so that she
left her cloak, and the boys took it and pawned it for two
gallons of wine. It is considered that Robert do give her
three pence in respect of the wine and do go quit. And
Roland and Peter neither come nor essoin [present an excuse
for nonappearance] themselves. And their pledges were
Nicholas brother of Alfred of Bodmin and Herbert Reeve of
Bodmin, who are therefore in mercy.
