| 1381 | Gascon Roll for the 4th year of the reign of Richard II That if any man wishes to leave the town for any parts, with his goods secure, and wishes to enjoy the privileges of being a burgess of the town, then he should pay 50s.morl.. Every man of the town who takes prisoner a robber ought to deliver him to the lord, saving his rights. No burgess or inhabitant of Saint-Sever is to be cited or s…mmoned for any cause that he has done, to another place outside of the town, until the matter has first passed through legal proceedings in the town. That neither by gift or exchange is the town of Saint-Sever to be separated from the crown of England. That the people of Saint-Sever going out of the territory, and returning, should have common (padoamentum) during daylight throughout the lands near the town, making satisfaction for damage to corn and hay, except that from 15 September, until 22 January, no-one is to enter any of the woods in the common with pigs or troga. Any inhabitant is able to have animals of his 'neighbours' for profit. Any inhabitant of Saint-Sever is able to give to their herdsmen six head of cattle, eighteen young goats or sheep, twelve heads of pork or sow. That in a case that a powerful inhabitant (potens) of the town wishes to overcome a poor inhabitant by combat or litigation, if that poor inhabitant wishes to contest this, then two inhabitants chosen by the jurats and council should act for him, at the expense of the powerful inhabitant and the town. In case there is a controversy, litigation or riot, the lord should safeguard the pauper. Any person who has stolen things up to the value of 6s.morl., and is fourteen years old, and it is clearly proved, may be put in a pillory for as long as the lord and jurats please. In addition they should pay a 10s.morl. fine, to be put towards the benefit of the town, or for its enclosure with walls. Anyone, man or woman, who defames another for any crime, or for any cause, without proof, is to be put in a pillory for a whole day till evening and pay 20 shillings.

In addition he is bound to give the dower which his mother brought to him, or the immoveable goods, if he has them. That so long as he or she is alive, a man or woman is not obliged to divide his/her goods which were inherited amongst sons and daughters that they have had by different husbands or wives. In the end they are to be divided equally amongst the sons. If a man marries a wife who has an inheritance and goods, and he has none, and they have a son or daughters, and afterwards the wife dies, whether the children marry or not, they are to provide the father with food and drink. If the same should happen to the mother, or if either the father or mother have nothing to live on, then any son they have is bound to provide them with the necessaries. Every man or women of the town is to have the free disposition of goods that they have acquired. That all inheritance should go to the first son, even if daughters or a daughter are first born. If there is no son, only then should it be divided equally between the daughters.

If he does not want it, he should receive 6d. in the pound from what it is sold for. Any person who calls the Virgin Mary ‘a wicked woman’ (pessima mulier) in a public street (careria), or place, or in jest, is to be fined 50s.morl..

Anyone who abjures God maliciously is to be fined 20s.morl.. If they are unable to pay, or refuse to pay, then they are to be put in the pillory for a day, and the penalty is to be divided as above. That working oxen cows or bedding equipment cannot be taken by the lord for any debt, except ufor a penalty or right of the lord, or by a tax of the town, or for the expenses of the society (confratria) of St John, or for payment of daily labourers.

For a sum over 20s. he is to swear at the district of Saint-Jacques (supra vicum in Sancto Jacobo), and for a sum of 20s., or less on the Gospels, and this is when the lord and court try it. That all sequestrations (bannum), when first put in place is to be paid to the person who had it imposed, and the second afterwards, and so on, unless it was bound in an obligation to one rather than another who made the sequestration. Whatever neighbour or inhabitant of the town who redeems himself under compulsion from the lord, or who is otherwise bound for another person, then he is to be compelled and distrained in his body and goods until he makes payment and satisfaction. No person should take by force the property of anyone brought to the town for sale under a penalty of 2s.morl., and making satisfaction, provided the cry is made. A moiety of the fine is to go to the lord, and the other moiety to the town.

Those who fail to do so should be removed from the town, and their goods confiscated by the lord and town. Of all violence done to any burgess of Saint-Sever for whatever reason, with the town or outside of it, then all of the town should take up the responsibility for bringing the case. And they should aid them personally and out of their goods only until amends or restitution are made. If those who have committed the violence, or their associates enter the town, then they ought to be taken and kept by the lord until justice could be done to them. If any burgess aids those violators or their associates, then they should be deprived of their burgess rights in the town. That if any person is executed for any crime, then their goods or property should not be confiscated to the lord.

Anyone doing the contrary is to be punished by the penalty imposed on him, provided that the arrest is first transacted by the council of the lord and jurats. If he requires an indictment, then the lord is to do that without delay, but if the lord does not do that, then he is to be released from arrest. That whatever person who does not allow himself to give a pledge in someone else’s inheritance, is to incur a fine of 6s.morl., and pay damages as a malefactor.
