"Appointment of the king's serjeant at arms, William de Spaldyng, to arrest James de Audele, knight, who has been many times summoned by the king's writs to come with all speed before the king and council at London for some important business affecting the king and realm but has hitherto refused to come or to excuse himself for not coming, in case he should still refuse to obey a final summons sent to him in more peremptory terms or to voluntarily offer some excuse; and to bring him to the king in London." - July 28 1348, Westminster.^[2]
