Perdonavimus etiam Willelmo de Ros, qui filiam predicti Willelmi duxit in uxorem, quadraginta solidos quos ab eo exigitis pro eodem. Et ideo vobis mandamus quod occasione predicta ipsos Willelmum et Willelmum non distringas, quia volumus ipsos de predictis denariis esse quietos, eo quod fuerunt tempore predicto per preceptum nostrum ad maritimam custodiendam. Teste rege apud Wyntoniam, xxiiij. die Januarii, anno xviij. Per P. de Rivall'." [24 January 1233/4] The king is notifying William de Haverull, guardian of the archbishopric of Canterbury, that he has pardoned William de Saint John 40s which he [the guardian] requires of him, beacuse he did not come with the king in his service to the Welsh parts. He has also pardoned William de Ros, who has married the daughter of the aforesaid William, 40s which [the guardian] requires of him for the same [reason]. They are not to be distrained because the king wishes them to be quit of the said sums, because at the time they were guarding the coast by the king's orders.
