[28] The following reading of the arms on this monument is kindly
supplied by Mr. W. Rae MacDonald:--On the recessed tomb of Bishop
Cardeny in the nave there are several coats of arms. These, so far as
they are legible, are--In centre of arch a small shield, quarterly
1st and 4th, a fess chequé (of two rows of panes only) between three
open crowns, for Stewart and the Lordship of Garrioch; 2nd and 3rd, a
bend between six crosses potent fitchée, for Mar; the 3rd quarter is
defaced, but no doubt was the same as the 2nd. These arms appear on the
seal of Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar in right of his wife, Isabell
Douglas (see Laing’s _Seals_, Vol. I., No. 796). There
is a shield at each end of the arch label; that on the east side is
defaced; the west one bears two chevronells engrailed, and has a mitre
above it, for Bishop Cardeny. On the pedestal there are four shields,
supported by angels under arched canopies, the shields being separated
by five figures of ecclesiastics with folded hands, and standing on
pedestals. These four shields bear--(1) Three pallets, for Atholl; (2)
two chevronells, for Strathearn (?); (3) defaced, but probably same as
first; (4) faint traces of two chevronells.
[29] Inscription on tomb of the “Wolf of Badenoch”:--“Hic jacet
Alexander Senescalus, filius Roberti Regis Scotorum et Elizabeth More,
Dominus de Buchan et Dns _de Badenoch, qui obit vigessimo quarto
die Julii_.” The words in italics have been restored, and there
is a mistake in the date, as Alexander Stewart died 20th February
1394.--_Monuments and Monumental Inscriptions in Scotland_, by Rev.
Charles Rogers, LL. D., &c., for Grampian Club, 2 vols., 1871 and 1872.
