TRANSLATION
Be it known by these present writings that I, John son of Roger de Sotton [Sutton] near Bosworth have remised, released and quitclaimed forever for myself and my heirs to Robert Ambaston, his heirs and executors. Every kind of legal action concerning the personal real estate in the original document which I had or may have is completed on this day by these present writings. So that neither I, the said John, son of Roger, nor any other in my name may be able henceforth to demand any right or lay any claim against the said Robert and the others, but by these present writings we may be excluded from all legal action. In witness of which matter I apply my seal to this present writing. Given at Chellaston on the Thursday before the feast of St Denis in the forty-sixth year of the reign of King Edward after the conquest. |
