Other people mentioned: Prior of Ormesby; Prior of Ellerton. Nature of request: The people request that the prior of Ellerton be distrained to pay his portion of the tax in the manner of other farmers of the grange of the prior of Ormesby in Spaldington. The taxers excluded the prior of Ellerton by favour to the impoverishment of the petitioners.
