Trojpenell Memoranda. 579 



I)ereiiger, who appears to have l^eeri the prime mover in the affair ; 

 for 20 July, 1319, there is an order {Close Itoll) to the sheriff of 

 Wilts to supersede the putting in exigent to he outlawed of John, 

 son of Ingelram l^erenger, who was put in exigent Ijecause he was 

 lately indicted there of the rape and ahduction of Elizaheth, wife 

 of John de Percy, and of stealing the goods of George de Percy tc 

 the value of 100s., John having surrendered himself, &c. 



Enrolled on the Close Poll, 18 Novemher, 1320, is an acknow- 

 ledgment hy George de Percy that he owes to Pichard de Podneye 

 50/. to be levied in default on his lands and goods in Wilts. This 

 may have been connected with foreign service, for there is a pro- 

 tection till Whitsuntide {Pat. Roll), 23 February, 1319-20, for 

 Edmund de Wodestok, the king's brother, going with him (the 

 king) beyond seas and for George de Percy, with others, going 

 with the said Edmund ; the like till Michaelmas, 25 March, 1320, 

 for George de Percy and John, son of George de Percy ; and the 

 like, till Easter, 7 January, 1321-2, for George de Percy and John 

 Percy. In 1327 there is a suggestion that he was in trouble with 

 his neighbour at Great Chalfield, but of that later on, under Great 

 Chalfield. 



In 1330 serious trouble befell him. On 19 March, 1329-30, it is 

 matter of history that Edmund of Woodstock, earl of Kent, was be- 

 headed at Winchester by the contrivance of Mortimer and (^)ueen 

 Isal)ella. We have seen above that a George Percy was personally 

 in attendance, with his son, on that earl ; as an adherent of the earl 

 (George Percy.ofWest Chalfield nowsulfered. On 1 0:\rarch.l329-30, 

 there is a writ of aid {Patent Poll) for Xichola.s de Langeforti
