Text From Source: ... Thomas de Swaffham's house at Burwell was also plundered on Sunday by John Kempe of Dullingham, who, we are told, rode thither with banner displayed; whilst at Harleston and Arnington the houses of William Bateman and Geoffrey Michel were burnt and plundered in like manner. During the riots at Sutton also we learn that the constable of the village, Richard Waltesheff, was compelled by Thomas Barr and others to join them in a pursuit through the country after John Fedeler and John Whyte, two men of Ely, whom they sought to slay. ... |

[Corpus Christi] arose with a great force and went to the house of Richard Waltesheff, constable of the town of Sutton, and asked him to rise with him or he would burn his house. Then the said Thomas proceeded to Mephal to the house of John Fedeler, seeking to take and kill John Whyte of Ely and Thomas Somenour and a horse of Thomas seized and took away. ... |
