and Aveline his wife the land of Wenhella [i.e. Ovenhill],
for which the
said Osbert and Aveline give them six marts ; also two shillings
rent in Cuciddemill, so that the only claim of Osbert and Aveline therein
shall be the "mulctura" of their house in Helinton [i.e. Allington]; also two
shillings yearly from the land of Oxefrid, from which Aveline's
ancestors
only paid one shilling. They also release to the Abbot and Convent
the
right which they claimed in the houses of Paris, Archdeacon of
