Judgement of Maredudd ap Rhobert,

Judgement of Maredud, son of Robert, lord of Kedewig, appointed by Prince Lewelin, lord of Wales, to decide the controversy moved between the heirs of Hirarht and Deupiw and those who are called fetonieht, who reclaimed the said lands against these heirs. At the peremptory day and lawful place, namely Landinan, before wise and the best men the reclaim of those called fetanieht and their challenge was, by right and justly and justly determined and settled. At the time there was offered them the judgement of good men called deduriht, but they refused, knowing that by this they would come to nothing. Afterwards they consented that twenty four of the best men of the province of Arwistli should come to decide on their challenge, if they had any right to the said lands. All these best men were sworn publicly, if they knew of their right to the said lands, namely their reclaim in that cause, then they ought to seek right again by the decision of the wise men. The wise men of Arwistli, who conducted the proceedings, namely, Kenher, son of Kadugan, Ioab, son of Ioruerht, of Kedewig, and Idneuet, son of Goronui, Ioruerht Pastan, and other wise and discrete men from other provinces who judged them, namely the fetanihet, not to be the heirs of the said lands, with their stock, for ever. When those who are called fehanihet saw that their right was failing on every side, they withdrew defeated in law. But in the days of Howel, son of Ioab, those fetanihet were deprived of right and justly of those lands. The witnesses of this were: Ioruerht, dean, son of Howel, and Cuneda, his brother, the two sons of Owin Brihtir, namely David and Owin, the two sons of Ioruerht, namely Einniaun and Grifri, Mil, son of Ithael, Madauc Tanhur, the three sons of Grifud, son of Kadugan, namely Meilir, Seisehll, Ioruerht, Grifud, son of Meilir, Adam, son of Ioruerht, Gorgeneu, son of Glasadein, Enir Uates, Kediuor, son of Iohannis, Peredur, son of Ioruerht, Grifud son of Ioab.
