The Archbishop of Ardmach in Ireland consecrating one Geoffry de Cusak Bishop of Meden in Ireland, elected without the Kings commandment, license, or subse∣quent confirmation, who thereupon took upon him to conferre Benefices belonging to the Bishoprick; the King upon complaint of another elected and confirmed Bi∣shop thereof by the Kings consent, though not consecrated, issued this memorable Writ to the chief Justice of Ireland, to preserve the Rights of his Crown against these conspirators, to make void and null all presentations of the intruder, and to punish all resisters in such manner as the Writ prescribes.
