Abstract

William de la Pole, earl of Suffolk, was concerned in some three suits before the Parlement, of which this was by far the longest and the most important. Like so many others, it stemmed from a grant, in this case of a house in Paris, made to Suffolk by Henry VI. Seeking to obtain possession, Suffolk was opposed by Jeanne de Sens, widow of the former owner, who claimed that the house belonged to her, since a half share was hers and the other had come to her by virtue of a ‘don mutuel’ arranged between herself and her husband before he suffered confiscation.
