25. PHELIPPOT BOOT AND WALTER ESTHAM TO EDMUND DE STONOR [c. 1380]

It is impossible to fix the date of this and the thirteen following letters; they are therefore placed in the order in which they appear in the Ancient Correspondence. The dates probably range from 1370 to 1382. From A.C., xlvi, 10.
