Increasing expenses and a falling revenue compelled Henry IV, eight times in his short reign, to obtain extraordinary grants of money from Parliament and Convocation. The charters of which copies are printed in this book were shown to the barons of the Exchequer by the attorney of five Lincolnshire monasteries of the Gilbertine order, the priories of Catley, Ormsby, Alvingham, Sixle and Bullington, which claimed that their possessions were exempt from such taxation. The exchequer allowed the claim. The charters which had been submitted as evidence were enrolled upon the Memoranda Roll of the King’s Remembrancer with a record of the circumstances which had led to their production.
