Also on 26 May 1388 he granted by letters patent to John Cauley a rent of 10 marks for life from the same manor; similarly to John Tunstal 40s., and to Robert Gousill £20. All are still living.

To William Mareschal , who is still alive, he granted the office of parker of Haynes with agistments and with the wages and fees of the office for life. This was confirmed by the king.

At Epworth in the Isle of Axholm in 1397–8 he granted to John Barkeworth, chaplain , by letters patent the free chapel of Haynes with its appurtenances for life, with reversion to himself and his heirs, to celebrate and support services there for the souls of his ancestors.
