Juliana his first wife. And afterwards, a little before

the feast of the Nativity of our Lord, in the same four

teenth year,^21 in digging out a fox which was in an earth

near Bengebery, the said Margaret was smothered, but

not killed on the spot ; because, after that accident, viz.

on Thursday in the feast of the Holy Innocents, in the

year of our Lord 1340; she made her will, by permission

of the said Sir Roger ; and, on the last day of December

next following, in the said fourteenth year, died without

issue. And immediately after the feast of Easter in the

sixteenth year of the said lord the king Edward III., he

contracted a fourth marriage, viz. with Joan, relict of

Thomas de Ffaversham, lord of Gravene; and because

Sir John de Northwode, first-born son of the said Sir

Roger and Juliana his first wife, as is aforesaid, then

being twenty years old, wanted more for his establish-

ment than formerly, at the instance of Mr. Otho de

Northwode, brother of the said Sir Roger, he, by a cer-

tain deed, dated at Ewelle in, Faversham, the 4th day of

October, in the said sixteenth year of King Edward III.,

granted to the said Sir John his son a certain annual <<<< Sir John, her husband

rent of ten marks, to be received from his manors of

Bykenore and Wychelyng, at the four terms of the year,

in equal portions, to him and his heirs for ever; and

he gave to Sir Roger de Northwode, his other son, and

brother of the said Sir John, his manor of Beausfeld, to

him and his heirs for ever, to the value of ten marks of

land by the year.

"And afterwards, the said Lady Agnes, mother of the

said Sir Roger de Northwode, died, viz. on the 4th day

of December, in the year of our Lord 1349, by which the

manor of Northwode Chasteners came to the hands of

the said Sir Roger, as to the party to whom the rever-

sion thereof belonged. And, in the following year, viz.

in the year of our Lord 1350, John, son of the said Sir

Roger and Juliana his first wife, against the will of his

father, married Joan, one of the daughters of Robert <<<< Joan

Here, of Faversham, Sir Ralph Spigurnell marrying

Elizabeth, the other daughter of the said Robert ;^22 for

which, the said Sir Roger was thinking of disinheriting

the said Sir John,because that marriage seemed to him

to be manifestly in disparagement of his blood; but,

with the greatest difficulty, and by the mediation of Sir

Arnald Savage, Knight, that thought of the said Sir

Roger was prevented. Yet he was unwilling to inter-

fere any further about the said Sir John with respect

tp the said marriage; but to exonerate himself from

supporting them, more for honor than love, he gave

the said Sir John the foresaid manor of Northwode

Chasteners to him and his heirs; and lest the said Dame <<<< Joan

Joan should obtain any profit of dower from the said

manor, if the said Sir John should die during the life of

the said Sir Roger, he reserved to himself an annuity

therefrom of £50 for the term of his. life; but nothing

was exacted or paid therefrom in his lifetime….
