text: March 26. Lyons. Pope Innocent IV writes to the bishop of Winchester (William de Raley), relating that at the time of his election bishop-elect of Bethlehem (Gottifredo dei Prefetti) held the church of Long Itchington in the diocese of Coventry, which the pope reserved for him, and that, via the bishop-elect’s agent, a deacon, the conservators whom the pope delegated for this ordered the cleric Philip of Haskell, who occupies the church, to restore the church and the incomes received in the meantime. Instead, Philip had the agent beaten so severely that two ribs were broken, he had the tail of the agent’s horse cut off, and he had the agent’s servant bound with the horse in the stable. When the dean of Wells (John Sarrizin), a papal chaplain, to whom the pope assigned the business, wished to proceed with the case, Philip had the dean detained by the king’s bailiffs until he promised not to proceed further, but he captured the agents of the bishop-elect until on pain of 200 marks security they promised not to pursue the matter. The pope orders the bishop to enjoin on Philip to restore the church and its incomes, pay the bishop-elect’s expenses, and do satisfaction to the agents for their injuries, or appear at the papal curia within two months.
