The Sheriff, however, was directed to release them on bail. Thurstan did not appear on the day appointed for trial, 'but Robert came and defended his whole action and put himself for good or evil upon the country, to wit, upon twelve knights above suspicion and four vills of the neighborhood of Wigan.' A day was given him by the Justices at the next Assizes, and the Sheriff was directed in the meantime to 'let him have peace, and in no wise to trouble him or permit him to be troubled."
