5. List of the 6yi justices responsible for the enforcement of 

 the statutes during the decade. 



The difference in number between 671 and 664 as given in 

 my article in E. H. R., ^2y, is due to the addition to the list 

 of the names from two cancelled commissions and also of a 

 name from a source other than the Patent Rolls, and to the 

 decision in two instances that the same name belonged to 

 more than one man. The total number is really somewhat 

 greater than even this present list : the mayor of Oxford and 

 also the mayor and sheriffs of London had on several occa- 

 sions received commissions, although these officials are not in- 

 cluded here. Further, the lists for the first uncertain period 

 are by no means complete ; e. g. Mauny and Thorpe both had 

 colleagues whose names I have not yet discovered. 



Unless otherwise specified, the manuscript references are to 

 the Patent Rolls, the first number in each case meaning the 

 regnal year. The list of justices whose names are derived 

 from other sources are given in pt. i, ch. i, s. 2. In some 

 cases the date of an appointment is not recorded on the Patent 

 Rolls but is supplied from the Originalia duplicate enrollment. 



The names given are of justices appointed on a separate 

 commission for labourers, except when the name is preceded 

 by the letters L. and P. ; these show that the appointment was 

 for a joint commission of the peace and for labourers. *| shows 

 that a justice of labourers was during the years 1352- 1359 ap- 

 pointed on a separate commission of the peace ; f shows that 

 at some time during his career a given justice of labourers 

 served as judge in one of the upper courts. Removals and 

 associations are indicated. A bracket around "de " or " le," 

 etc., indicates that the word sometimes, but not invariably, 

 occurs with the name.
