Grey, withered Argyle, you care little about me, and when I return, as
little I’ll care about you.
Footnote 11:
Dirty Laugh.
Footnote 12:
Dirty laugh they call the rock, and always that way remains; you will
the same get with yourself, if your wife’s face you would compare.
Footnote 13:
Yellow Stewarts of the locks, that would seize on the kail.
Footnote 14:
If we have the locks from ancestry, we have what will draw an arrow.
Footnote 15:
Transactions of the Berwickshire Naturalists’ Club.
Footnote 16:
This document was produced in a process depending before the Sheriff
of Glasgow, as a ‘genuine’ copy of an ‘original’ charter!
Footnote 17:
According to Balfour, Malcolm the Third, surnamed Canmore, the
successful opponent of Macbeth, “was crouned at Scone” in anno 1057.
This present important document shows that, whether crowned or
uncrowned, he was King of Scots in 1051.
Footnote 18:
This illustrious Earl is not mentioned in any of our peerage writings,
and was unknown until this interesting historical document turned up.
Hitherto, the first known Earl of Monteith was Murdoch, who flourished
in the reign of David I.
Footnote 19:
Andrew Hamilton, Bishop of Glasgow in the reign of Malcolm the Third,
has been brought to light by means of this charter. No doubt he ‘must’
have been of the family subsequently enobled, and now holding the
premier Dukedom of Scotland. The Hamiltons may therefore be supposed
to have preceded Queen Margaret, who brought so many English
“Pock-puddings,” as Andro’ Fairservice styles them, into Scotland, and
to have comfortably placed one of their name in the Episcopal chair
nineteen years before the espousals of their Majesties.
Footnote 20:
Mr Innes, in his edition of the ‘Chartulary of Glasgow,’ founding upon
what he supposed an “authentic instrument,” dated in 1116, fixes the
revival, or rather erection, of the Bishoprick in the reign of King
David I. This grant to the masons, however, shows decisively that the
learned antiquary was quite wrong.
Footnote 21:
What Records?
Footnote 22:
Author of a treatise entitled “Three excellent Points of Christian
Doctrine.” Edinburgh, 1621. He demitted the ministry about the year
1615.
Footnote 23:
