Hec est finalis concordia facta in Curia domini Regis apud

anno regni Regis Ricardi x.
Coram G. filo Petri, etc. [ut in No. 27.]
Inter JOHANNEM DE SCIPHERSTE, petentem, et NICOLAUM filium
WILLELMI, tenentem.
De dimidia virgata terre, cum pertinentiis, in
SCELDWIKE.
Unde recognicio de morte antecessoris summonita fuit inter
eos in prefata Curia, scilicet quod predictus NICOLAUS recognovit
totam predictam terram, cum pertinentiis, ut jus et nereditatem

1 The virgate, or yardland, varied too much to
assign its proper measure
with any certainty; sometimes it is a quarter of a hide,
sometimes fifteen,
twenty, or thirty acres. " Virgate," in its more
ordinary use, is a rood, a
quarter of an acre. See note, p. 252.
