There being many Jewish Converts in England, for whom the King by reason of his Wars had not provided sufficient maintenance, he thereupon out of his Christian care to support them, issued these ensuing Writs to the Abbots, Priors and Co∣vents of most religious Houses through England, to intertain and receive one or more of them for two years, and to allow them a daily pension or Conrody not exceeding such a sum; wherein the names of each male and female Jewish convert sent to eve∣ry house are thus recorded in the fine Rolls of this year.
