Siarter Ystrad Marchell rhif 86 / Ystrad Marchell charter no. 86
Decree by Anian, bishop of St Asaph defnding the land and property of Strata Marcella (Ystrad Marchell) abbey.
Anian, bishop of St Asaph, commands, instructs, and for the remission of sins, enjoins all the clergy and laity (archdeacons, deacons, presbyters, clerks, princes, barons, knights and all laymen) to keep, maintain, and protect all things and possessions of the brothers of Stratmarchell in such a way that none cause them or permit to be caused tham any annoyance, injustice, loss or trouble, and that they should not omit to display the monks without delay the justice that concerns them. If any of the laity in any way presume to dispute, by rash daring, this salubrious prohibition, the clergy (archdeacons, deacons, deans and priests)should diligently warn the wrongdoers and unjust persecutors so that they may restore to the said brothers stollen goods, make good damages caused, and show full justice, but should they have contempt for the clergy's warnings, the latter are to bind the laity with the chain of excommunication without any favour or fear, and are diligently to have them excommunicated and avoided by all until worthy satisfaction be given. The rest they are to suspend from their office, and Annian shall, on God's authority, hold both sentences firmly ratified while they shall ensure in all these things, carefully and diligently, so that the aforesaid brothers shall not be obliged, from default of justice, to labour in the bishop's presence. Neither shall they fear to be summoned by the supreme judge for the neglect of the office bestowed upon them nor shall they be punished by the bishop for their disobedience.
