†The lords ordain that, because the king's officers, when they are charged by the treasurer to do service to the king's grace in his errands, allege that they have no horse and nor are their wages sufficient, through which diverse matters concerning the common welfare of the realm are postponed, that therefore the said treasurer shall have power to take the arms from any of our sovereign lord's officers under heralds who refuse to do such errands as he lays to their charge in the king's name in time to come.
