Document 2/146/23 (Arb. Lib., no. 255)

Description
Pope Clement IV writes to the abbot and convent of Arbroath, noting their petition that ordinaries of places, desiring their own gains, have sequestered the profits, belonging by right to Arbroath, of the churches which they obtain for their own uses, suffering defects in buildings, ornaments and other things, which during the time of sequestration are not useful for the said churches, whether concerning correction or emendation of their defects, but [are] being converted for their own uses; also, they refuse to relax this sequestration, unless the abbot and convent shall first pay not a small quantity of money to them. He thus indulges that profits of this sort may not be sequestrated by these ordinaries, if by chance the said ordinaries sequestrate them against inhibitions of this sort, they may be held to provide restitution to the abbey.
