Friars of the Sack
From Chester Wiki
The Friars of Penitence of Jesus Christ, popularly known as "Friars of the Sack", were established at Chester before 1274 when the Council of Lyons condemned this and other mendicant orders to extinction. The Chester House was the most obscure house of this very obscure bunch of monks.
