 PREFACE. 
 
 The original design of this volume was to form a series of Charters 
 and other deeds connected with Trinity College Church and Hospital, 
 Edinburgh, to serve as a companion to the similar volume of the St. Giles 
 Charters recently presented to the Members of the Bannatyne Club. 
 The Hospital of Soltre or Soutra having been annexed to that 
 foundation, its Chartulary, hitherto unpublished, seemed naturally to form 
 the first portion of such a collection. The importance of the volume, it 
 was thought, might further be increased by attempting to collect the foun- 
 dation charters of other Collegiate Churches of the city and county of 
 Edinburgh, consisting of St. Mary's in the Fields, commonly known as the 
 Kirk of Field, Restalrig, Corstorphine, Creichtoun, Dalkeith, and Rosslyn. 
 No separate Register of any of these Churches has been preserved, and 
 the few existing charters contained in protocol books, and other old tran- 
 scripts, for the most part occur in a very inaccurate or imperfect state. 
 
 In the Appendix to the Scotichronicon, as enlarged by Walter Bower, 
 Abbot of Inchcolme, there is a list of Monasteries, Priories, and other 
 religious houses which existed in Scotland during the reign of King James 
 the Second. Under the head Pr^fectur^, sive PR^PosiTURiE, the follow- 
 ing sixteen Collegiate Churches are enumerated, with the names of the 
 founders ; Abirnethy, Bothanis, Bothvill, Carnewith, Corstorphin, Dalkeith, 
 Dirltoun, Douglas [Dunglas], Dunbar, Fowlis, Kilwinin [Kilmun] in Cowal, 
 Lyncloudan, Maybol, Methfven, Roslyn, St. Andrews. To two of these 
 Provostries a remote or fabulous antiquity is assigned, viz., " Abirnethy, 
 
 a
 
 ii PREFACE. 
 
 quam fundavit Garnach rex, filius Macdonach, Pictus ;" and St. Mary of 
 the Kock or Kirkheuch, " Sancti Andrese, quam fundavit Constantinus 
 secundus rex Scotorum." On the other hand, it is stated of Dirltoun that 
 only the nomination of Provost had taken place, and of Eosslyn and 
 Douglas,^ that the buildings were then in progress. Dempster, in his 
 Apparatus, Lib. i. De Religione,^ gives a similar list, derived " Ex Gilberto 
 Bruno." The name of Fowlis is omitted, but three others are somewhat 
 gratuitously added, " Killesmont, fundat Andreas Dempster." " Achterles, 
 fundat David Dempster baro de Muresk v. et Achterles ix. anno 1403, 
 charta originaria, et acta illius familiae." " Brechin, fundat Jacobus Demp- 
 ster baro de Carrestoun," &c. The founder of Abirnethy, he calls " Rex 
 Pictorum Garnard filius Macdonach anno 1273, Keldeis expulsis Canonici 
 Reffulares inducti." 
 
 The number of Collegiate Churches existing in Scotland at the period 
 of the Reformation amounted to about thirty-eight. The following tabular 
 view exhibits, as nearly as can be ascertained, the respective dates of foun- 
 dation, with the names of the founders of these establishments.^ One autho- 
 rity states, that " Collegiate Churches began to be built after King Alex- 
 ander the Third's time (1249-1286,) when the erecting of Monasteries was 
 discouraged by the Popes usurping the right of Patronages."* It is doubtful 
 if any evidence can be shown of such Collegiate Churches having existed in 
 Scotland earlier than the reign of David the Second (1329-1371) ; and it will 
 be perceived they chiefly belong to the fifteenth century, when so much zeal 
 and munificence was displayed in the enlargement and decoration of the 
 buildings, and when all classes of society vied with each other in the endow-

 ment of chaplainrics for the maintenance of daily stated service, always 
 including prayers and singing of masses for the souls of the founders, their 
 relations, and benefactors. In Scotland, in more recent times, the term 
 Collegiate was applied to a Church where two ministers served the cure 
 as colleagues ; but it had previously borne a different and wider signification. 
 These Collegiate Churches, called PrcBpositurcB, were instituted for secular 
 priests or canons, and for choristers, and were under the jurisdiction of a 
 Dean or Provost ; and the service regulated very much as in a Cathedral. 
 Each of these churches consisted of a certain number of Prebendaries or 
 Canons, where they had their several stalls, and with their Dean or Provost 
 made up the Chapter. Most of these establishments, there is reason to be- 
 lieve, had existed as chapels or parish churches, long before they were thus 
 enlarged and endowed by the great landed proprietors in the neighbourhood.

 It is not necessary in this place to enter into any details for illustrat- 
 ing the history of these establishments, beyond supplying some historical 
 notices respecting the Foundation, the chief Officials, and the Buildings of 
 the several Collegiate Churches of Mid-Lothian, to which the present 
 volume is restricted. But in the first instance, it may be proper to give an 
 account of the ancient Hospital and Church of Soltre.
 
 THE HOSPITAL OF SOLTRE. 
 
 In former times, one of the chief thoroughfares from the South led over 
 Soltre or Soutra Hill, on the Western boundary of the county of Hadding- 
 ton. This hill, about seventeen miles from Edinburgh, is the highest elevation 
 to the west of that ridge or chain of mountains known as the Lammermuir 
 Hills, separating Lothian from Lauderdale. It is a dreary part of the 
 country, surrounded by bleak moorlands, and used to afford only scanty 
 pasture for sheep, until the modern improvements in agriculture have 
 brought some considerable tracts under cultivation. Near the summit of 
 the hill, or 1184 feet above the level of the sea, was the site of the ancient 
 Hospital and Church of Soltre. This Hospital, dedicated to the Holy 
 Trinity, was one of those religious establishments, of which a considerable 
 number existed in different parts of the kingdom,^ during the Middle Ages, 
 having been erected and endowed not only for stated religious service, but 
 for the benevolent purpose of maintaining a certain number of indigent 
 and infirm persons in the surrounding district, and of receiving for a 
 limited period, pilgrims and other travellers. 
 
 The Hospital of Soltre is usually said to have been founded by King 
 Malcolm the Fourth, in the year 1164. For this statement, the oldest 
 authority seems to be the continuator of the Scotichronicon, who wrote 
 about the middle of the fifteenth century. His words are: "Anno 1164, 
 
 • Spottiswood, iu liis Account of Bdigimta Borises stead of two, Chalmers makes mention of nine [Cale- 
 
 (see note, page ii.), has enumerated twenty-eight Hos- donia, vol. ii. p. 347). Tliere were Spittal-liouses for 
 
 pitals, but he says this number might be greatly aug- receiving persons afflicted with incurable leprosy also 
 
 mented. In proof of this, in Berwickshire alone, in- found near most of the chief towns.
 
 vi THE HOSPITAL OF SOLTRE. 
 
 de concilio Walthevi abbatis de Melros, rex Malcolimis fundavit nobile mo- 
 nasterium de Cupro in Angus, et ante hoc Coenobium de Soltrey, ad via- 
 tores hospitandos."^ But the King's charter, which contains a grant of the 
 lands of Brotherstanes extending to Lynden on the road to Eoxburghe, 
 being the earliest of the present series, has no date, and makes no allusion 
 to the Hospital as having been newly founded. The period of his reign 
 however was from May 1153 to December 1165. Tradition is also 
 favourable to his claims as founder, as it is alleged he conferred on Soltre 
 the privilege of a sanctuary ; a road through Lauderdale (a name given to 
 the western part of the county of Berwick) leading towards Soltre was known 
 as Malcolm's road, and traces of it are said to be still visible ; while another 
 road or causeway through the moors towards Melrose acquired the name 
 of the Girthgate, gate signifying a road, and girth an asylum or sanctuary.^ 
 The following account of Soltre, from Father R. Augustln Hay's " Scotia 
 Sacra," an unpublished work, compiled in the year 1700,^ may be quoted, 
 as furnishing some minute particulars regarding the Hospital and its loca- 
 lity which are not elsewhere to be met with. He commits, however, a palp- 
 able mistake in saying that David, Earl of Huntingdon, was buried at 
 Soltre in 1219. The words in the Scotichronicon to which Hay evidently 
 refers, apiid abhatiam de Sautreia sep?cltus,'^ unquestionably apply to Sawtrey, 
 a Cistercian abbey in Huntingdonshire.

 Pringle. His residence is att Meusdenhead, a mile distant from the Hill. His buriall place is in 
 ane Isle of the Abbacie which is now decay'd ; the ruins only being conspicuous. The Hospitall 
 stood on the East of the Highway as you come from Edinburgh for Kelso ; on the West there 
 are att this day some Cotter houses. The building appears to have been very spacious. About 
 the midle hill towards Lothian near to the highway, there is a fountain called Ternity Well or 
 Trinity Well. On the south side of the hill att the foot there is a small brook which divideth 
 Lothian from Lauderdale. There is a village likewise distant from the Monastery about a mile 
 and a half nam'd Sowtry ; it is probable it belonged of old to the Hospitall. 
 
 King Malcolm's grant of the lands of Brotherstanes was renewed and 
 confirmed with extended privileges by his brother William the Lion ; while 
 Alexander the Third confirms an unrecorded grant made by his father 
 Alexander the Second, of half a chalder of oatmeal from the mill of Peebles. 
 The series of Charters, now first printed, records various other benefactors 
 during the 12th, 13th, and 14th centuries. William, Bishop of St. Andrews 
 (1211-1220), confirms to the master and brethren of Soltre the Church of 
 St. Giles at Ormiston in East-Lothian, with its revenue to their proper use • 
 and likewise the Church of Strathmartin in Forfarshire. The churches 
 of Lympetlaw, and of Wemyss, were assigned by Eichard Germyne of Lym- 
 petlaw, and John of Methkill. Among other feudal barons or neighbouring 
 landowners, bequests were made by David Olyfard, Richard son of Michael

 of Paistoun, Thomas of Cranstoun, Duncan of Swanystoun, and Mariot his 
 spouse, Walter of Soltre a burgess of Berwick, and John the Marischal of 
 Keith. It is interesting also to find among these benefactors, in 1294, a 
 name of peculiar interest in the literary history of Scotland, Thomas of 
 Ercildoun, son and heir of Thomas Ryniour of Ercildoun, the celebrated 
 Scottish poet, familiarly known as Thomas the Rhymer. 
 
 The original Chartulary is a very small folio of twenty-seven leaves 
 of vellum, the last much mutilated. It was transcribed from the original 
 Charters by William of Cranystoun, Notary Public, as appears by the 
 Instrument, printed as No. 5.5, at page 48, dated at the Church of Pencait- 
 land, the 5th of February 1399-1400, in which the titles of the preceding 
 charters are specified. The charters are engrossed without any apparent 
 regard to chronology, and few of them bearing the date, an attempt has 
 been made to remedy this defect by re-arrangement, and the period of 
 their probable dates is given in the Tabula, within a parenthesis. Of this 
 register, on account of its antiquitj', a notarial transcript was made by 
 George Newton, for the use of the Provost of Trinity College, according 
 to his attestation, dated 16th of August 1516. The ancient Register belongs 
 to the Faculty of Advocates. Newton's transcript, which remains among 
 the records of the City of Edinburgh, is a square folio of seventeen leaves 
 of vellum, each page being attested by him, in his official capacity as a 
 Notary. None of the original Charters have been preserved. 
 
 In the Papal Taxation of Churches and Monasteries in Scotland at the 
 end of the Thirteenth Century, is the following valuation of Soltre :^ —

 Mngister. It is not possible to furnish a complete list of the Masters, but 
 some of their names have been recorded. In a charter of the end of the 
 twelfth century, Sir Reginald and Sir William of Soltre, chaplains, appear 
 as witnesses ; and Andrew of Soltre, and various other chaplains, occur at 
 a later period. In 1271, an inquisition was made regarding a dispute be- 
 tween the master and brethren of Soltre and the inhabitants of Crailintr, in 
 Roxburghshire, regarding a claim for a thrave of corn in harvest out of 
 every ploughgate of the manor; the cause was determined by an assize, con- 
 sisting of a suitor (sectator), and four persons out of each of the three con- 
 tiguous manoi-s of Eckford, Upper Crailing, and of Hetoun, who, under the 
 title of antiquiores patriae, decided in favour of Soltre.^ Radulphus, Magister 
 Hospitalis de Soltre, is named in the charter, No. 48. He swore fealty to 
 Edward the First, in the chapel of Edinburgh Castle, 29th July 1291.2 
 Four years later, Thomas, master of the Trinity Hospital of Soltre, did 
 homage to the English monarch at Berwick, 28th August 1296 ;3 and in 
 return, the said Thomas obtained precepts to several Sheriffs to restore the 
 estates and rights of the Hospital.* 
 
 After an interval of a century, the next Master we meet with was 
 Thomas of Aldton, on the 7th of April 1401,^ and again in October 1410.*^ 
 Stephen Flemyng appears as Master of the Hospital of Soltre, 4th 
 of March 1426-7.^ His successor, Mr. Thomas Lawder, was a person 
 of great worth and distinction. His name occurs in the following Charters 
 as Master of the Hospital, 8th of January 1437-8, and last of August 1444.* 
 In the latter year he founded a chaplainry at the altar of Saints Martin 
 and Thomas in the Holy Cross Aisle of St. Giles's Church, Edinburgh ; and 
 this endowment was confirmed by royal charter in 1450.'' Lawder was, in

 1452, promoted to the See of Dunkeld, as a reward for his services as 
 preceptor to King James the Second : he was then aged about GO. 
 Abbot Myln, in his Lives of the Bishops of Dunkeld, who passes a high 
 eulogium on Lawder as a person of great abihty and piety, states, that he 
 was the first to introduce the custom of preaching in his diocese. Feeling 
 the effects of advanced age, in 1476 Lawder resigned the See in favour of 
 the Dean, James Livingston; but he survived till November 1481; and 
 Myln has recorded the inscription on his tomb, in the Cathedral Church of 
 Dunkeld.^ It is probable that Lawder had resigned his Mastership on the 
 occasion of his being appointed Bishop in 1452, as we find Alan Cant 
 styled Rector of the Hospital and Chancellor of the Church of St. Andrews, 
 apparently between 1453 and 1455." This designation renders it necessary 
 to explain, that Soltre Hospital was, by authority of Pope Nicholas Y., 
 annexed to the Church of St. Andrews, as the benefice of the Chan- 
 cellor, with the consent of Alan Cant, who then became Chancellor. Cant 
 had pursued his studies at the University of St. Andrews, where he became 
 a Bachelor of Arts in 1426, and a Licentiate in 1430. In 1460, we find 
 that he was deceased, and that his successor was John Tyky, Bachelor of 
 Decrees.^ In 1479> John Tyry was one of the Mastei's elected as assistants 
 to the Rector of the University of St. Andrews. 
 
 LTpon the annexation of Soltre and its possessions, by Mary of Gueldres, 
 to the Foundation of the Trinity College, in 1462, its connexion with St. 
 Andrews was dissolved, and it was restored by Papal authority to its for- 
 mer state as an Hospital and Parish Church, under the charge of a Vicar, 
 who was appointed by the Provost of the new institution. John Heriot, 
 Vicar of Soltre, is witness to several Charters in the year 1467.* In October 
 1479, Sir John Heriot, as Vicar, claimed having power from Sir Edward 
 Bonkill, Provost of Trinity^ College, to grant a lease of the tithes of Fawnys.^

 THE HOSPITAL OF SOLTRE. xi 
 
 Another change befell Soltre after the Reformation. When Trinity 
 College Church and Hospital and its revenues were transferred to the Pro- 
 vost, Magistrates, and Council of Edinburgh, Soutra, as it was then called, 
 having ceased to be maintained as a distinct parish church, the place speedily 
 lost its importance, and the buildings fell into ruins. In the Register of 
 Ministers 1567, William Frank appears as minister of the united parishes 
 of Sowtra, Fawlaw, and Keithhumbye, with a stipend of £30 (Scots), and 
 the vicarage teinds of Keithhumbye. In 1574 the two former places were 
 joined to Creichtoun, of which Adam Johnestoun was minister, with the 
 aid of three readers. The reader at Soutra had an allowance of 20 merks, 
 with the kirk-land, or glebe. In 1589 a separation from Creichtoun took 
 place, and the parishes of Fala and Soutra, although in different counties,^ 
 were again united under one minister. This arrangement has continued 
 to the present time, Fala becoming the parish church, and Soutra existing 
 only in name, or in a few scattered houses, the population of the two united 
 parishes, according to the last census, in 1851, being only 434 ; the rental 
 however having greatly increased. 
 
 Before concluding these notices, I may add, that no plan or view of the 
 old Hospital or its ruins can be discovered. On visiting the locality last 
 autumn, to ascertain if the ruins were such as might serve for a vignette or 
 illustration to the present volume, I was informed that about ten or twelve 
 years ago, every vestige of the walls and foundation had been dug up and 
 carted away for building dykes and farm -steadings in the neighbourhood. 
 Such has too often been the fate of many of our old Ecclesiastical build- 
 ings, when in ruins, and standing in isolated positions ; the proprietors 
 being ignorant or indifferent for their preservation, and the tenants glad 
 to avail themselves of such an easy mode of obtaining building materials. 
 There still however exists a small aisle of the church converted into a 
 burying-vault, which had a narrow escape, as portions of the wall had

 actually been taken down, when its proprietor interfered, and caused it to 
 be restored. It formerly belonged to the Pringles of Beatman's Acre, a 
 piece of land adjoining, bestowed, it is said, by James the Fifth, in consider- 
 ation of a night's hospitality which he had received. A monumental stone 
 to some of the family, of a late date, is built into the gable of this aisle ; 
 and over the entrance a large stone or lintel with the date and initials, 
 16. D. P. A. R. 86, marks no doubt the year in which this portion of the 
 old church was so appropriated. Mention is made in the various notices 
 of Soutra of a fountain of excellent water, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, 
 and vulgarly called the Tarnity Well. This well, we are told, " though 
 it does not appear to have any medicinal qualities, was formerly much 
 celebrated and much frequented by sick and diseased pei'sons." ^ In the 
 course of improvements it has also disappeared, the ground being under 
 tillage, and the water carried off by means of tile-drains. 
 
 It only remains to add, that the aisle above mentioned, which rises near 
 the top of the hill, now serves as a solitary beacon or landmark to denote 
 the site of the ancient Hospital and Church of Soltre, which, for many 
 an age, before poors-houses and infirmaries existed, had continued to mi- 
 nister relief to the sick or destitute, while in such a sterile locality, it could 
 not but prove a welcome place of refuge for the weary pilgrim.

 TKINITY COLLEGE, EDINBURGH. 
 
 The Collegiate Church and Hospital dedicated to the Holy Trinity, 
 Edinburgh, appears to have been projected if not founded by King James 
 the Second^ During his reign there existed no Collegiate Church within 
 the city, or in the immediate vicinity of Edinburgh. The premature death 
 of that monarch at the siege of Koxburghe Castle, by the bursting of a 
 cannon, on the 3d of August 1460, may have interfered with the neces- 
 sary arrangements ; but his widowed Queen, Mary, daughter of Arnold, 
 Duke of Gueldres, acting upon his intentions, became the actual foundress 
 of that establishment. The Papal bull of Pius H., which authorized the 
 annexation of the Church of Soltre to the College and Hospital newly 
 founded by the Queen, " de novo fundaverit, ac egregio quodam opere 
 construi edificari fecerit," bears the date at Rome, 23d of October (10th 
 kalends of November) 1460, was promulgated by Andrew Bishop of Glas- 
 gow in the parish church of Linlithgow, on the 10th of March 1461-2. 
 Its pious object was " the praise and honour of the Holy Trinity, and of 
 the always blessed and glorious Virgin Mary, of Saint Ninian the confes- 
 sor, and of all the saints and elect of God;" and likewise the salvation 
 of the soul of the Queen's late husband. King James, of her own soul, and 
 those of her kindred, and of the present Bishop of St. Andrews, whose 
 authority she supplicated to confirm this endowment. 
 
 The confirmation of this foundation by James Kennedy, Bishop of 
 
 ' See the references to James the Second, infra, pp. became a separate establishtaent, unconnected with tlie 
 58, 59, and 93. After the l!etormation the Hospital Parish Church.

 St. Andrews, is dated the 1st of April 14ti2, and recites the Queen's peti- 
 tion in which she states the purposes of the new foundation, as a perpetual 
 College or Collegiate Church for a provost, eight chaplains or preben- 
 daries, and two choristers, to which there was to be conjoined an Hospital 
 for the support of thirteen poor persons named Beidmen ; while the sums 
 allotted to the Provost and other officials are specially enumerated, and 
 rules prescribed for the regular and efficient performance of their respec- 
 tive duties. The plan of the building was in the form of a cross-church, 
 of which only the choir, aisles, and transept were completed, with a south 
 porch, and a north chantry-chapel, all in the Second Pointed or Decorated 
 st3-le of architecture. The site of the building was the low ground, with- 
 out the city vvalls, to the north-east, sheltered by the precipitous rocks of 
 Calton Hill, as exhibited in the accompanying plan, copied from Gordon's 
 survey of Edinburgh, drawn and engraved in 1647.

 terms recites the foundation of the Church and Hospital hy James the 
 Second and the Queen Dowager, magnifico et sumptuoso opere, and con- 
 firms tlie transfer of tlie Hospital of Soltre, and of the chapel of Uthe- 
 rogall, in the county of Fife, upon the petition of the Queen and her eldest 
 son, King James the Third. The later bull, also of Pope Pius II., is dated 
 6 kalendas Septembris 1463. It contains a grant of plenary indulgence 
 to all persons who should in a devout spirit of contrition visit the Church 
 in the course of five years, during the feast of its dedication, on the 10th of 
 July, or the following week, called its Octaves ; and the period was to be 
 further extended every five years, until fifty years had expired. Occasions 
 of this kind were eagerly embraced, and crowds resorted from all quarters 
 to avail themselves of this highly valued privilege. The offerings of each 
 person during the Octaves, when making confession, and partaking of the 
 holy Eucharist, were put into a coffer with two or more keys, one-third of 
 such contributions being reserved for the Papal treasury, ' to assist in 
 carrying on war with the infidels,' the other two-thirds were to be appro- 
 priated towards completing the building of the Church itself. 
 
 From the Inventory of Charters of Trinity College, prepared in 1580, 
 and printed at page 143, it is but too clear that the oldest Register written 
 upon vellum, and other early deeds, have been lost. This is much to 
 be regretted, as the existing transcripts of the foundation Charter and its 
 confirmation, and of the Papal bulls, are for the most part extremely inac- 
 curate, and great care was required in collating the different copies for giving 
 an accurate text. The second Register is a folio volume preserved in 
 the City Archives. It commences in the year 1504, and is peculiarlv 
 interesting, as furnishing the occasional proceedings of the Chapter, with 
 accounts of receipts and expenditure until the year 1531, attested by the 
 original signatures of the Provosts and Prebendaries for the time ; besides 
 copies of later deeds and acts continued till 158G. 
 
 From other sources fortunately we derive some infoi*mation regarding the 
 progress of the building. During the Queen Dowager's life, the work had
 
 xvi TRINITY COLLEGE, EDINBURGH. 
 
 been commenced and carried on with great energy, under the direction of 
 Sir Edward Bonkill, the first Provost, and of the master of the fabric, or 
 architect, John Halkerstone,^ as appears from the subjoined extracts 
 from the unpublished Exchequer Rolls. These Rolls are not fully pre- 
 served, and some other entries connected with this edifice may perhaps have 
 been overlooked, but it is pleasing, from such an authentic source, to 
 recover the names of the persons to whom we were indebted for one of the 
 finest ecclesiastical buildings, even in its unfinished state, which existed in 
 Edinburgh.

 TRINITY COLLEGE, EDINBURGH. xxi 
 
 Trinity College Church, as above stated, was never completed accordinjj 
 to its original design ; but the accounts of revenue and expenditure of the 
 Chapter, between 1504 and 1531, included in the present volume, afford 
 sufficient evidence that considerable progress had been made in the build- 
 ing during that interval. No. 31 is an indenture or contract with Robert 
 Dennis, mason, who, for the annual fee of £26, and a bounty, agreed " to 
 labour and remain for his lifetyme in all maner of labouris concerning his 
 craft to and for the said College :" it is dated 8th of April 1531. Sub- 
 sequent accounts to 1551 are not recorded. But the loss of the entire 
 Register, between its foundation in 1462 and 1503, is much more to be 
 regretted. These later accounts, however, show that the interior of the 
 church must have been ornamented in a manner suitable to the beauty of 
 its architecture. Payments are made for rich covers to the high altar; for 
 curtains of plesance with silk fringes above the head of the Virgin; for silver 
 chalices, reliquaries, cups, and other vessels for Divine service ; also for 
 organs, and bells great and small ; and there is mention of images of the 
 Blessed Virgin and St. Margaret. These with the ornamented service books 
 have long since disappeared ; but there has fortunately been preserved a 
 painting which there is reason to believe was the Altar-pieceiof that church. 
 I allude to the Diptych, or folding doors, painted on both sides, containing 
 portraits of King James the Third, and his Queen, Margaret of Denmark. 
 This precious work of art, painted about the year 1484, is now, by Her 
 Majesty's gracious permission, restored to this country, and exhibited in 
 the great Picture Gallery of Holyrood Palace. In a communication read 
 to the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland,^ after the painting had been trans- 
 ferred from Hampton Court, where it was all but overlooked, I endeavoured 
 to prove its original purpose, by identifying the portrait of Edward Bonkill 
 the Queen's Confessor, and probably that of Mary of Gueldres herself, in 
 the character of an angel seated at the organ of the church, whicli forms

 the reverse of one of the panels ; the other being the usual representation 
 of the Holy Trinity. 
 
 According to the Queen's foundation, in 1462, confirmed by Kennedy, 
 Bishop of St. Andrews, the Chapter of Trinity College consisted of a Pro- 
 vost, eight prebendaries, and two choristers or singing boys. The first 
 prebendary had the title of Master of the Hospital of the Holy Trinity, the 
 second was called the Sacristan, the others were the Prebendaries re- 
 spectively of 3. Browderstanis, 4. Strathmartin, 5. Gilstoun, 6. Ormistoun, 
 7. Hill, and 8. Newlands, being so named after the places from which the 
 chief source of revenue was derived ; but which it is not necessary in this 
 place to recapitulate. Their duties are also accurately defined, and strict 
 rules prescribed to enforce residence and propriety of conduct.' The Pro- 
 vost was enjoined to be present at all festivals ; anniversaries were to be 
 observed on the obits of the Queen, of the late King " our most tender 
 husband," and of Bishop Kennedy. Each prebendary was also directed, 
 whenever he said mass, that he should, in his sacerdotal habits, repair to 
 the tomb of the Foundress with hyssop, and there devoutly read the prayer 
 De profundi's, v.'ith an exhortation to excite the people to devotion. 
 
 It has already been stated that the first Provost of Trinity College 
 was Edward Boncle or Bonkill. His title, Dominus or Sir, as applied 
 to priests, shows that he had not taken the higher degree of Master of 
 Arts ; but he was a person of distinction. I find from a notice acciden- 
 tally preserved that he was admitted a guild-brother of the town gratis in 
 1459, in acknowledgment of his aid and counsel.' It is most probable he 
 was from the first connected with Edinburgh. In addition to the notices 
 of Bonkill which occur in the Exchequer Rolls, already quoted, on the 3d

 March 1471-2, the name of " Sir Edward Boncle, Provost of the Colledge 
 of the Trinite beside the burgh of Edinburgh," appears in an action and 
 summons before the Lords Auditors for certain sums due as mails to the 
 Kirk of Sowtra.^ It also occurs in other two cases, 13th October 1479,' 
 and 13th April 1485.^ From the phrase in the two Exchequer Rolls 
 of 1496, tunc prepositi,^ and quondam, we learn that Bonkill was then 
 deceased. The name of his immediate successor as Provost from 149(! 
 to 1502, if any one was appointed, has not been ascertained. 
 
 The next Provost of whom we have any notice was Mr. John Brady. 
 He was apparently a native of Lothian, and was educated at St. Andrews. 
 The name Jo. Brade occurs in the class of Determinants in 1478, and 
 M. Jo. Brady in that of Licentiates in 1480. At a meeting of the LTni- 
 versity, held on the 2d of January 1489-90, he appears among the deputies 
 of the district of Lothian ; and he became Archdeacon of Lothian. Brady, 
 who is styled Parson of Tannades, on the 13th February 1500-1, received 
 a presentation to " the channonry and prebend of Crechmond within the 
 Cathedrall Kirk of Aberdeen."^ In the Register of the Privy Seal in 1502 
 is the following entry : — " A presentatioun to Master Jo. Brady of the Pro- 
 vestre of the Trinite College besid Edinburgh withe a claus in the samyn 
 that the vicarage of the Wemys salbe annext perpetualle to the Provest of 
 the said College and his successouris, &c. De data primi Septembris anno 
 Domini v" and twa yeris. Et regni Regis xv'\ Gratis, per Signaturam."" 
 Brady, who continued to be styled " Archdeane of Lowthyane," in the 
 year 1511, as Provost, gave in a propine to David Beton the sum of 44 
 French crowns, to obtain a new confirmation of some of their lands, and 
 to prevent the same being granted in feu to courteours.' From this period 
 till his death in November 1525, he appears to have exercised a constant 
 and diligent superintendence of the College.

 John Dingwall, his immediate successor as Provost was evidently the 
 same with Sir John Dingwall who is mentioned by Knox.'' John Dingwall, 
 whose name appears in the list of Licentiates of the University of St. Andrews, 
 in 1474, was probably the father of the Provost, as Buchanan expressly says he 
 was a priest's son. In confirmation of this, we find in the Privy Seal Register, 
 this notice, " Preceptum legitimationis Domini Johannis Dingwell capel- 
 lani, Henrici Dingwell, Jacobi Dingwell (and three sisters), fratribus et 
 sororibus bastardi, &c," but the father's name is not specified, 1st January 
 1511-12.2 His designation, sometimes as Dominus, sometimes as Magister, 
 might suggest more than one person of the name ; but by attending to 
 his various titles, as he enjoj'ed a plurality of offices, we arrive at a dif- 
 ferent conclusion. Among the auditors of the High Treasurer's accounts, 
 13th October 151G, he is styled " Dominus Johannes Dignvale, Archidia- 
 conus Cathanensis." Having acquired by purchase from one of the burgesses 
 of Edinburgh, a house and garden in the vennel of the Collegiate Church 
 of St. Mary in the Fields, he is called " Magister Johannes Dingwall, Sedis 
 Apostolice Prothonotarius, Ecclesiarum Moraviensis Rossensis et Catha- 
 nensis Succentor, Thesaurarius, et Archidiaconus ;" and in fulfilment of this 
 purchase he became bound to pay the annual sum of 26s. 8d. to the Provost 
 and Prebendaries of the said church, dated at Edinburgh, 8th of March 
 1518-9 ; two of the witnesses were ' Magistri Matheus Ker, predicte ecclesie 
 collegiate propositus, et David Vocat, eiusdem ecclesie prebendarius, Scolae- 
 que principalis Grammaticorum Edinburgi preceptor." In 1524, Dominus 
 Johannes Dingwall, Rector of Strabrok and Archdeacon of Caithness, 
 obtained a charter, under the Great Seal, of the mansion and orchard of 
 Wester Strabrok in Linlithgowshire, 15th September, and on the 19th 
 November he conveys the said mansion, &c., by a deed of mortification in 
 favour of the Rector and Vicar of Strabrok.^ Towards the end of 1525, 
 Dingwall succeeded as Provost of Trinity College. Upon the institution

 of the College of Justice in May 1532, Sir John Dingwall was one of the 
 Judges on the spiritual side taking his seat as Provost of Trinity College ; 
 but he did not long enjoy this distinction, having died, it would appear, 
 within a few months of his promotion to the bench. On the 2(3th of July 
 that year, an action was raised before the Lords of Session by " Sir Jhone 
 Dingwell, Provest of the Trinite College besyde Edinburgh, for himself, 
 and as executour to umquhile Maister Jhone Brady his immediate prede- 
 cessour and Provest of the said College aganis Elizabeth Ker Lady Buk- 
 cleucht, and Walter Scott of Branxholme knycht, hir sone," relating to 
 the arrears of teynd-schawis, and of the parsonage of the parish kirk of 
 Lempetlaw, in the parish of Sprouston, Roxburghshire, " for the space of 
 xiii yearis immcdiatlie precedand and befoir the deceis of the said umquhill 
 Maister Jhone quhilk deceissit in the month of November the zeir of God 
 P v and xxv zeiris.''^ On the following day, the 27th of July 1532, in a 
 similar action pursued against Sir William Scott of Branxholme,^ he is styled 
 Maister Jhone Dingwell, Prothonatour Apostolic, Provest of the Trinite 
 College besyde Edinburgh ; but I have not observed his name entered as 
 present at any subsequent meeting of the Lords of Session. We may con- 
 clude, therefore, that he was deceased on the 16th November that year, 
 when James Beaton, Archbishop of St. Andrews, George, Earl of Rothes, 
 and John, Lord Erskine, were admitted as Lords of Session, being chosen 
 by the King, " becaus thair is diverse deide, some seik, and some away of the 
 said Lordis of Sessione, quhairthrow there is no sufficient nombcr conforme 
 to the acte maid thereupone of before, to decyde on all matteris, and to mini- 
 ster justice to all his leiges."' Buchanan, in one of his epigrams, founded, 
 he says, upon some hexameters written by Sir Adam Otterburn of Auldhame 
 and Redhall, knight, refers to the proud titles inscribed on Dingwall's sump- 
 tuous monument, and says he had acquired great wealth at the Court of 
 Rome in his official capacity.*

 It appears that Dingwall, by his last Will, had bequeathed some money 
 for carrying on the buildings of Trinity College, and that the masons em- 
 ployed raised an action before the Lords of Session on the 9th of July 1533, 
 for payment of this bequest, and of certain arrears which were then due by 
 his executors. It is curious in itself, and may be here subjoined.'

 Some uncertainty exists respecting the next Provost. In the Registers 
 of the University of St. Andrews, we find the name "Willelmds Cunyng- 
 HAM Prepositus Sancte Trinitatis prope Edinburgh : Britan." as being ma- 
 triculated in 1532. This might be any time between November and the

 25th of March following when the year 1533 commenced. But whether in 
 consequence of death or resignation, Cunnyngham was succeeded by Mr. 
 Robert Erskine, whose resignation, on the 28th of July 1540, is recorded 
 in the presentation of Sir George Clappertoun to the provestry.

 Sir George Clappertoun, one of the Prebendaries of Trinity Col- 
 lege in the year 1520, was Subdean of the Chapel Royal of Stirling; and 
 from 1538 to the death of James the Fifth in 1542, he appears in the Trea- 
 surer's accounts as " Maister Elimosinar (Almoner) to the Kingis Grace." 
 Dominus Georgius Clappertoun, in July 1540, as above, secured a presen- 
 tation under the Privy Seal to the Provostship of Trinity College near 
 Edinburgh ; and by that title he sat in the Provincial Council held at 
 Edinburgh in 1549-^ In a note to Knox's History of the Reformation,^ I 
 was led to conjecture that Clappertoun had resigned this office upon being 
 appointed to the Chapel Royal, but, as already stated, he had been Sub- 
 dean for several years, and the collegiate accounts prove that he continued 
 Provost till at least the 5th of September 1566,* when he probably resigned 
 in favour of his namesake, and no doubt relative, Laurence Clappertoun. 
 
 From the Register of Confirmed Testaments in the Commissariat of 
 Edinburgh, we learn that " Sir George Clappertoun, Subdene of the 
 Kingis Majesties Chapell Royall of Striueling, deceissit in the moneth 
 of Apryle 1574." His nomination of Mr. Robert Pont, then Provost of 
 Trinity College, as one of his assignees, may be held as evidence of his 
 havinff embraced the reformed doctrines. 
 
 Laurence Clappertoun appears to have held the office only about

 three or four years : his name, as Provost, occurs on the '23d of July 1567, 
 and also 12th of March 1570-1, in which year he must have deceased, as 
 
 Mr. Robert Pont, on the 27th of January 1571-2, obtained a presenta- 
 tion to the Provostry of Trinity College, Edinburgh, " vacant be deceiss of 
 umquhile Laurence Clappertoun last Provost thairof."^ Pout's history is well 
 known. He took an active share in church matters as a zealous Presby- 
 terian, was nominated one of the Lords of Session in January 1572, and was 
 admitted before 1574, one of the ministers of St. Cuthbert's Church, or the 
 West Kirk, Edinburgh. On the death of his colleague William Harlaw, he 
 had a presentation to the vicarage of St. Cuthbert's on 29th December, 1578. 
 In 1584, he was deprived of his seat in the Court in consequence of an Act 
 which prohibited " all persons exercising functions of the ministrie within 
 the Kirk of God to bear or exerce any office of civil jurisdiction." He 
 was the last of the Provosts of Trinity College,^ and having disposed to the 
 Magistrates of Edinburgh his rights to the oflice, no successor was ever 
 appointed. He died on the 8th of May 1606, in the 81st year of his age, 
 and was interred in St. Cuthbert's Church-yard. 
 
 A pastour of Christ's flock sometime was I, 
 Within the Church that standeth just hard by,' &c. 
 
 After the Reformation, Trinity College Church and its various endow- 
 ments were conveyed by Royal Charter to Sir Symon Prestoun, Lord Pro- 
 vost, and the Magistrates of Edinburgh, 12th November 1567. In the first 
 instance, the gift was specially intended for an Hospital for the support of 
 aged and helpless persons sufi^ering through the events of adverse fortune. 
 But this design, by subsequent charters, and more especially by the Act of 
 Ratification in July 1 587, by which previous gifts during the King's minority, 
 was modified, and along with the support of the poor, provision for the mini-

 sters of Edinburgh, for the education of youth were included, and also to 
 increase the funds of the newly erected College or_^ University of Edinburgh. 
 As explanatory of these purposes, there is printed at p. 246, No. 220, the 
 original Signature by King James, of Confirmation and Novodamus of all the 
 Kirk Livings, to the Provost, Magistrates, and Council of Edinburgh, dated 
 7th August 1G12, upon which a Charter under the Great Seal was passed. 
 But previously to this, probably about the year 1.580, the building itself was 
 converted into a parochial church, and obtained the name of the North-East 
 parish church of Edinburgh. The first minister was Walter Balcanquall. 
 In 1574, he was one of the three ministers of Edinburgh ; in 1 588, there were 
 four; but owing to the increased population, the town in 1598 was divided 
 into four quarters, and two ministers were allotted to each of these four 
 churches, instead of its being divided into eight distinct parishes. In this 
 way Balcanquall, as minister of the North-Eastern, or as it was commonly 
 called the College Kirk, received a colleague in the person of Mr. George 
 Robertson. He died 4th of August 1616, in the 68th year of his age. 
 
 It is not, however, requisite to furnish any list of the ministers of this 
 parish. Of the church itself, numerous views have been engraved for 
 works connected with the history of Edinburgh, or the ecclesiastical anti- 
 quities of Scotland. Its site has already been described, and the accom- 
 panying plan, reduced from a drawing by Thomas Bonnar, City Architect 
 in 1814, with details supplied from the very accurate plans by Mr. Bryce 
 in 1848, when the church was demolished, exhibits the adjoining localities 
 as they existed half a century ago, and may be compared with the wood- 
 cut at p. xiv., copied from Gordon's map of Edinburgh 1647. The Eastern 
 portion of the North Loch had nearly two centuries ago been drained, and 
 converted into the " Physick Gardens," while another portion of the ground 
 belonging to the church was, in 1772, granted for the erection of Lady Glen- 
 orchy's Chapel, which had an injurious efifect by circumscribing its limits, 
 and enclosing it with a dead wall. But these buildings, as well as Trinity

 acquired by the North British Railway Company for a station, warehouses, 
 and other accommodations. 
 
 In noticing the destruction of this venerable Church, it would be foreign 
 to the object of the present work to enter upon the vexed question of its 
 proposed restoration. When it was scheduled for railway purposes, the in- 
 difference shown regarding it by the inhabitants can only be accounted for 
 by its unfinished appearance, as seen when looking down upon it from the 
 North Bridge, and their ignorance of its interior, which has been described by 
 an eminent architect as " a very beautiful decorated composition, with the 
 capitals of the piers enriched with foliage, not exceeded in design or exe- 
 cution in any English cathedral." After some further description of the 
 mouldings, the south door and open porch, &c., it is added : " This build- 
 ing is all of good decorated character, and is deserving of minute examina- 
 tion and study. "^ But the Railway Directors nevertheless felt assured of 
 obtaining the building at their own valuation ; the minister of the church 
 and the members of Presbytery deluded themselves with the dream of a 
 more advantageous site and a showy edifice, while the majority of the 
 Town-Council, with all their clamorous anxiety for the good of the parish, 
 were most willing to erase the church altogether from the roll of their 
 ecclesiastical patronage. What therefore could a few Antiquaries expect 
 to accomplish in their desire to avert such an act of barbarism,^ more 
 especially when Government, after being appealed to, refused to interfere 
 for the preservation of this Royal foundation, since it had become one of 
 the parochial churches of the city, and the parties concerned had con- 
 sented to its destruction ? 
 
 Trinity Hospital and gardens also shared the same fate. The original 
 building stood in the neighbourhood of the church on the eastern side of 
 Leith Wynd ; and Maitland in his History of Edinburgh, who has given a

 detailed account of the Hospital, with the Rules for its government, states 
 that it was rebuilt in 1587.' In the meanwhile the inmates were dislodged 
 and became out-door pensioners, thus infringing or annulling its consti- 
 tution. Amidst the clamour and disputes regarding a site for the Church, 
 the Hospital seems to have been forgotten, except for a foolish claim in 
 the name of some old female pensioners, as having a legal right to the 
 accumulated funds, although appropriated by an Act of Parliament for the 
 restoration of the church. It might have been hoped that a desire to orna- 
 ment the city would have actuated our civic rulers, instead of their repeated 
 attempts to rebuild a sumptuous edifice in the worst possible situation. 
 But the whole aflFair has been disgraceful to Edinburgh. 
 
 It may not be out of place to mention very briefly another matter con. 
 nected with Trinity College Church. Queen Mary of Gueldres, relict of 
 King James the Second, died at Edinburgh on the 16th of November 1463. 
 Some delay had occurred in her interment, and her funeral obsequies were 
 performed in the cathedral church of Brechin ;2 but she was afterwards 
 buried near the High Altar of the CoUeoe Church which she had founded. 
 The Society of Antiquaries having recommended a careful search to be made 
 to discover her remains, various excavations were accordingly made by 
 authority, but unfortunately, as it proved, not at first in the right direction. 
 It is however unnecessary to give any details respecting the discovery of 
 the two female skeletons — the one in the mortuary chapel, as it was called, 
 on the north side of the church, the other, some months afterwards, within 
 an antique-shaped leaden coflBn, in the Apsis, near the place where the 
 High Altar must have stood, and which two distinguished medical professors 
 concurred in stating was that of a female probably of about thirty years of 
 age, but, as they conjectured, of weak intellect. The matter being brought 
 before the Society of Antiquaries, I was led to investigate the history and 
 character of the Queen Dowager ; and the result of this inquiry, proceeding 
 upon contemporary authority, was, that however much the Queen may have

 been attached to her husband, the high-flown encomiums by our later his- 
 torians of her heroic speech to animate the troops after the King's death, 
 to bring the siege of Roxburghe Castle to a close, was nothing but a pure 
 fable ; that her age could not have exceeded thirty years ; and moreover, 
 that neither her private nor public conduct was such as to warrant any 
 exalted notions of her intellectual capacity. 
 
 Reference is made to the old Collegiate Seal in No. 204, which in 
 1574 was ordered by the Chapter " to be changit and reformit." Engrav- 
 ings of both seals are here given, the former from an impression, which is 
 not well preserved, attached to a deed of no importance in 1566; the latter 
 is interesting in having a rude representation of the Church itself.
 
 THE KIllK OF FIELD. 
 
 On the rising ground to the south of the Covvgate in Edinhurgh, but 
 beyond the city wall, was erected the Monastery of the Preaching, or Black 
 Friars, of the Order of St. Dominick. It was founded in the year 1220 by 
 King Alexander the Second, who bestowed the annual sum of ten marks de 
 firmis burgalibiis de Edinburgh, and also the vennel leading to the city, which 
 still retains its name of the Blackfriars Wynd. Subsequent donations were 
 granted by Robert the First, James the Third, and others. The buildings 
 of the Monastery, surrounded with gardens, were extensive and sumptuous, 
 occupying the site of Surgeon's Square, and of the former High School, which 
 is now connected with the Royal Infirmary. But the Monastery itself was 
 destroyed by fire in the year 1528, and nearly twenty years later the monks 
 were plundered during the Duke of Somerset's invasion. The monastic 
 buildings had only been partially restored when the Reformation brought 
 such establishments to a close ; and the Black Friars being included in the 
 grant of religious houses made to the Magistrates and Council of Edinburgh, 
 the stones of the ruinous buildings were used for other purposes. 
 
 Adjoining the boundaries of this Monastery on the west, but wholly 
 unconnected with it, stood a Church which was dedicated to the Virgin, and 
 known, from its site beyond the walls of the city, as St. Mary in the Fields, 
 or, as it was familiarly called. The Kirk of Field. Arnot supposed that it 
 also might have been founded by Alexander the Second ; while Chalmers, 
 whose words are repeated l)y later writers, says, " The age of this founda- 
 
 e

 tion, and the piety of the founder, arc equally forgotten." i There can be 
 no doubt that the church was of considerable antiquity, since we find in 
 the Ancient Taxation, usually assigned to the end of the thirteenth century, 
 under the head, " Abbas Sancte Crucis," among other dependencies of Holy- 
 rood, EccLESiA SA^CTE Marie IN Campis, rated at 60s. Its name is also 
 occasionally met with in seisins and other deeds when describing the 
 boundaries of adjoining property : as ' the common vennel leading to the 
 church of the Blessed Mary in the Field ;'- ' et viam que ducit ad ecclesiam 
 Campi.'^ Its erection into a Provostry is however of a later date, and may 
 be determined with some certainty by examining the deeds connected with 
 the church itself, which occur in the older Protocol Books chiefly preserved 
 among the City Archives. This Collegiate Church is usually said to have 
 been designed for a Provost and ten Prebendaries ; but no charter of endow- 
 ment to this effect has been discovered. In the year 1511, certain waste 
 lands, adjoining the cemetery of the Kirk of Field, were assigned for the 
 purpose of erecting houses for the Master and chaplains of the several 
 altars founded in the said church, and for the performance of divine 
 services in singing coUegialiter} In the same year, Ker, who became 
 Provost, is styled Master j^ro tempore; but in 1512, and in seisins of a 
 subsequent date, he is designed Prjepositus, and the church is uniformly 
 called EccLEsiA Collegiata. Among the early benefactors connected with 
 this enlargement, Mr. David Vocat, one of the prebendaries, is specially 
 to be noted for his liberality. His name is also associated with one of the 
 chief seminaries of learning in this city, he having for several years filled 
 the office of Master of the Grammar School of Edinburgh.^ 
 
 A few years later, James Layng, burgess of Edinburgh, with consent of 
 his wife, by a charter under the Great Seal, grants to a chaplain officiating 
 at the high altar in this church, his tenement under the Castle wall, on the

 North side of the King's street. In 1.531, another Royal charter confirms 
 the mortification by Dame Janet Kennedy, Lady Bothwell, of some tene- 
 ments in Edinburgh and an annual sum of 20s. for a prebendary officiating 
 in the College Church of the blessed Virgin Mary in the Fields, within the 
 trails of the burgh of Edinburgli ; the city wall having recently been ox- 
 tended in that direction. This Lady, who was the daughter of John Lord 
 Kennedy, derived her title from a grant by Archibald, Earl of Ano-us (her 
 supposed husband), of a liferent of the Lordship of Bothwell, 7th of Feb- 
 ruary 1509-10, and confirmed the same day by a charter under the Great 
 Seal.' Before her alleged marriage, she had a natural son by King James 
 the Fourth, who, in 1515, was created Earl of Murra}. 
 
 The person who first held the office of Provost of the Church, " Pra^po- 
 situs Ecclesije Collegiatae nostre Domine de Campis prope Edinburgh," was 
 Matthew Ker, Master of Arts. His name occurs among the licentiates of 
 the University of Paris in the year 1498, and he is designed of the diocese of 
 Glasgow. On his return to Scotland he was preferred to the Vicarage of 
 Petirculter, and afterwards to the Kirk of Field. He also acted as deputy 
 of Robert Forman, Commissary-General, in the Official Court of the diocese 
 of St. Andrews, in deciding matrimonial cases.^ He was probably dead in 
 1520, as we find Sir Alexander Coupar, chaplain and prebendary, acting 
 for the rest of his brethren. 
 
 The second Provost appears to have been Mr. Richard Bothvile or 
 Bothwell, who, as much by his own talent for public employment as by- 
 family influence, obtained his full share of preferment. He was the second 
 son of Richard Bothwell, Provost of Edinburgh in the reign of King 
 James the Third.-' He was educated for the church, and his name, in 
 the year 1500, occurs in the old Registers of the LTniversity of Paris, 
 where he probably took his degrees in law. At an early period of life 
 he obtained a prebend in the Cathedral Church of Glasgow, and became

 Rector of Ashkirk, in Selkirkshire. In 1.325, we find him described as 
 Doctor of the Civil and Canon Laws, Canon of Glasgow, Rector of Ashkirk, 
 and Provost of the Collegiate Church of St. Mary in the Fields. He was 
 also Director of Chancery to King James the Fifth ; and on the institution 
 of the College of Justice, 27th May 1.532, it being provided that one-half of 
 the Judges should be persons of ecclesiastical dignity, he had the dis- 
 tinction of being named first of the Ordinary Lords on the Spiritual side. 
 On the 11th of March 1539-10, Bothwell produced a letter fi-om the King to 
 the Court, dispensing with his regular attendance, in consequence of his 
 being "greatlie troublit be infirmite and sickness," but reserving to him his 
 salary and privileges, out of regard to his " auld and good service done to 
 us, and to our derrest fader (James the Fourth." )i He however was able 
 to resume his official duties, as his name frequently occurs in the sederunts 
 of the Court after tlic date of the dispensation. On the 14th of February 
 1546-7, the presentation to Sir George Ker of the vacant prebend of St. 
 Matthew in the Kirk of Field, was addressed by Robert, Abbot of Holy- 
 rood, " to the venerable and excellent man, Mr. Richard Bothwell, licentiate 
 in the Laws, Professor of Theology, and Provost of the Collegiate Church 
 of St. Mary in the Fields."- He died on the 1st of January 1548-9.'' In 
 the following month 
 
 Mr. John Spittall, Official of St. Andrev.s, appears as Provost 
 of the Kirk of Field, but he held the office only for a few years. He was 
 Rector of the University of St. Andrews in 1547, 1549, and 1550. Dur- 
 ing the two latter years, and also as a member of the Provincial Council 
 held at Edinburgh in 1 549,* Mr. John Spittal is designed Prceposifiis Beatce 
 Marice de Campis, as well as Principal Official of St. Andrews and Rector 
 of that University. His name as Provost occurs in the Officials' Register, 
 7th November 1552. He died, we may suppose, at the close of that year, 
 as Mr. William Cranstoun, Rector of Kembach, and Canon of St. Salvator's

 Mr. Alexander Forrest, who was educated at St. Andrews, takina 
 his degree of A.M. in 1534, is first met with as Provost of the Collegiate 
 Church, 18th February 1553-4.^ In the following year, the Provost and 
 Prebendaries, granted a feu-charter of part of their property to James, 
 Duke of Chattelherault ; and one reason assigned is specially worthy of 
 notice, as showing that their buildings were in a ruinous state long before 
 the Reformers had commenced their labours for the purgation of idolatry : 
 "considering (it is said) that their houses, especially the Hospital annexed 
 and incorporated with their College, uere burnt dozen and destroyed by their 
 (tuld enemies of England [in 1544-47], so that nothing of their said hospital 
 was left, but they are altogether waste and entirely destroyed ; wherethrough 
 the Divine worship is not a little decreased in the College, because they 
 were unable to rebuild the said Hospital ;" they had in consequence granted 
 in feu the tenement or hospital with the yards and pertinents thereof, to the 
 Duke, for the purpose of erecting there a mansion-house for his own use." 
 Mr. Alexander Forrest, Provost of the Kirk of Field, appears, from an old 
 Inventory of the Town's Charters, to have been alive in 1559. 
 
 After the Reformation, the various religious houses in Edinburgh hav- 
 ing been suppressed and the rights conveyed to the Provost and Magistrates, 
 Knox and his friends urged them to appropriate such revenues "for sus- 
 tenyng of the trew ministeris of Goddes word, founding, bigging of hos- 
 pitalis for the pure, and collegis for learnyng and upbringing of the youth, 
 and sic uther godlic workis."* But selfish interests, and the unsettled state 
 of the country interfered with these liberally devised schemes. It may, how- 
 ever, have been for the purpose, which was afterwards carried into effect, of 
 founding a College, that the Council resolved to purchase the rights of the

 Kirk of Field, and we are thus furnished with the name of the next Provost, 
 Pennycuke. . . . ' On the 5th of March 1562-3, " the Provost, Baillies, 
 and Counsale ordainis Maister Johnne Spcns baillie, Andro Murray of Blak- 
 barony, and Maister Johnne Prestoun thesaurer, to talk and commune with 
 the Persoun of Pennycuke tuiching the Kirk of Feild and hail bigingis 
 thairof." On the 21st of June, in the Council Records we have the terms 
 of a contract by which "... Pennycuik, persoun of that ilk, and Provost 
 of the Kirk of Feild," for the sum of one thousand pounds Scots agrees to 
 transfer to the Town " the hale bigging sumtyme callit the Kirk of Feild, 
 bayth auld and new, with kirkyard, lugingis, &c., that pertenit of before to 
 the Provostrie and prebendars of the samyn." Farther, on the 8th of Octo- 
 ber, a committee was named " to tak inspectioun of the Persoun of Penne- 
 cukis evidentis of the Kirk of Feild, &c., with all diligence, sua that the 
 said Persoun have no farder cause to complene of delay."' 
 
 Four years later, we find that Mr. Robert Balfour, brother of the 
 notorious Sir James Balfour of Pettindreich, was Provost of St. Mary's in 
 the Field, when the Provost's house, on the night of the 9th of February 
 1566-7, was blown up, with the view of concealing one of the most extraordin- 
 ary tragedies that any age or country has witnessed. This was the murder, 
 by Bothwell and his accomplices, of Darnley, who had been lodged in 
 the Provost's house, and where, only a few hours before, Mary Queen of Scots 
 had visited her husband. This atrocious event, and its consequences, are 
 too well known to require any details, but it has attached an imperishable 
 interest to the spot where it occurred. For the purpose of conveying an 
 accurate idea of the scene, a rough but spirited sketch of the Kirk of Field, 
 and the adjoining localities, was hastily taken and transmitted to the English 
 Court. It is preserved among the correspondence of the period in H. M. 
 State Paper Office, and, by permission, an accurate facsimile of this very 
 curious drawing is here given, on account of local interest.^

 Balfour was forfeited by Parliament in November 1579, along vvitli 
 other persons who were accessory to the murder of Darnley and of the 
 two Regents/ The Provostry being no longer reckoned an ecclesiastical 
 office, was then bestowed on John Gib, one of the King's attendants, in the 
 following terms : —

 Dated 7th of December 1579/ 
 
 It may be added, that Robert Balfour, " son lawfull to Andro Balfour of Montquhanie," on the 
 22d May 1584, obtained a Ratification by Parliament of a remission of his forfeiture, " Provid- 
 ing alwayis that thir presentis be not extendit to repone and restoir the said Robert to any right

 The buildings and ground of the Kirk of Field were soon afterwards 
 acquired and appropriated to a much higher purpose than that of rewarding 
 grooms of the bedchamber and other favourites. Robert Reid, Abbot of 
 Kiuloss and Bishop of Orkney, who died in France, when sent as one of the 
 ambassadors on occasion of Queen Mary's marriage with the Dauphin of 
 France in 1558, had bequeathed the sura of 8000 marks for the purpose of 
 founding a College in Edinburgh. In the Queen's grant to the Provost and 
 Magistrates of Edinburgh of the Kirk lands, in 1562, when the various 
 religious houses were suppressed, the Kirk of Field was included : the objects

 of this grant being the erection of hospitals for the poor, the endowment of 
 schools of learning, and the support of the ministry. The Kirk of Field, as 
 already stated, had been purchased in 15G3, for the site of the College ; 
 but several years elapsed before the object so long contemplated was at 
 length carried into effect. 
 
 Professor Crawford, in his History of the University, written in 1640, 
 refers to the opposition which this scheme met with, until the year 1.581, 
 when the amount of Bishop Reid's bequest having been recovered, it was 
 again found necessary to purchase, for the sum of 300 merks, certain rights 
 to the Kirk of Field which had previously been conferred on John Gib 
 and John Fenton, two of the King's familiar servitors. The account 
 given by Crawford, as it contains a description of the locality, may be 
 quoted : — 
 
 " The time l)eing favourable, was weell plyed bj' the ministers and 
 citizens of Edinburoh befor named, and manv else assisting them. So that 
 having obtained ane gift of ane University within the Citie, in the beginning 
 of this yeare (1581), they purchased from John Gib and John Fenton ser- 
 vants to the King's Majestic, their right of the Kirk of Field, to be a place 
 for the situation of the intended College : It consisted then of twa parts, 
 divided be a narrow lane goeing from the Cowgate, on the west syde of Mr. 
 Alexander (juthrie's yairds, thorow the place where the counnon-hall now 
 stands ; and from thence towards the west, where now the back-yet of the 
 College leadcth to the Potterraw Port. On the north-west of this lane was 
 the great lodging where now are the scholes of the private classes. This 
 was the lodging of the Duke of Chattelerau, Earle of Aran, and, be the for- 
 feitur of the Hamiltons, disponed to some courtiers, and be them to the 
 Magistrates of Edinburgh. On the east and south syde of this land, was 
 the yairds, chambers, lodging, and kirk, belonging to the Collegiate pro- 
 vestry and prebendaries of the Kirk-a-field, commonly called Templum 
 et Pi'CBfectKra SanctcE Maries in Cainpis, becaus that, when the Cowgate 
 was an Loch, it was instead of the wall of the towne. But afterwards, the

 religious houses of the Blackfriers, Kirk-a-field, and Grayfricrs, thought 
 it more safe for them to have the towne-wall drawin about without 
 them ; and so, drying the Cowgate Logh, they enlarged the towne on the 
 south syde. This Kirk-a-field stood along towards the east from the Pot- 
 terraw Port, haveing an gairden on the south, betwixt it and the present 
 townc-wall : On the east end thereof was the lodging of the Provost, where 
 now the Principall of the Collcdge hath his rovvmes ; and to the east from 
 thence (within the present colledge yairds), were the prebendaries cham- 
 bers, blown up with fire at the murther of King Henry ; and to this reli- 
 gious convent belonged all the Colledge yairds. For many years thereafter, 
 John Fcnton keeped possession of the Provost of the Kirk-a-field's lodging, 
 and the yaird lying thereto.

 Fields had disappeared, when these additions and alterations were made 
 during the first half of the seventeenth century ; as in turn the whole of 
 the old College buildings have been removed in the course of the present 
 century. 
 
 The original entrance, which led into the Lower court, was from the 
 north, immediately opposite the vennel which still retains the name of the 
 College Wynd ; and like that of Heriot's Hospital, it was surmounted with 
 a steeple, but no view of it has been preserved. This account was given 
 me by a well-known distinguished Physician, who was born within the walls 
 of the College in 1749, and survived till 1835. At a more recent period, 
 probably from 1789 till 1822, when the foundation of the present building 
 was laid, the entrance was from South College Street, by the gate repre- 
 sented in the subjoined wood-cut. The house to the left was that of Prin- 
 cipal Robertson, and afterwards of Professor Dalzel ; while the low range 
 of houses to the right, forming the south side of the quadrangle, had been 
 inhabited by some of the Professors ; the one next the gate served as the 
 Senate-house, while the adjoining one was the birthplace of Dugald Stewart. 
 But all personal recollections of these buildings, and their varied associa- 
 tions, must necessarily, in the lapse of time, be soon effaced. The Founda- 
 tion itself has now, for nearly three centuries, continued to flourish, and

 RESTALRIG. 
 
 According to the legendary histon' of the Blessed Virgin Triduan, 
 Lestalrik or Restalrig, in the vicinity of Edinburgh, might claim an 
 antiquity coeval with the metropolis itself. She is said to have come from 
 Achaia, in the fourth century, in company with St. Regulus, and to have 
 died at Restalrig in the year 510, in the reign of Eugenius the Third, the 
 8th of October being held as her festival day. Although no precise date 
 can be assigned when a church or chapel was first erected and dedicated 
 to this Saint, whose bones for many centuries were held in high venera- 
 tion,! or when it first became the parish church of Leith, we can trace 
 it back at least to the twelfth century. The names of some of the 
 early rectors or vicars of the church, during the twelfth and thirteenth 
 centuries, may be found in the Chartularies of Dunfermline, Newbattle, 
 North Berwick, and the Priory of St. Andrews. Adam, parson of the 
 church of Lastalrigg, in the county of Edinburgh, swore fealty to Edward 
 the First in 1296.2 In the Taxation of Ecclesiastical benefices in Scotland, 
 which was prepared about the same period, the " Ecclesia de Lestal- 
 rige," in the Deanery of Linlithgow, is valued at £19, 4s. 2d., and the

 Tenths at <£l, 18s. 5d.' In the older Taxation, it is rated at 25 marks. 
 The names of barons of Lestah-ig of that ilk also occur, before the pro- 
 perty passed to the family of Logan of llestalrig, who appear more dis- 
 tinctly towards the close of the fourteenth century as superiors of Leith. 
 Sir Robert Logan, knight, Admiral of Scotland, was the founder of the 
 preceptory and hospital of St. Anthony in Leith. In 1435, an extra-dona- 
 tion of the right of patronage of the church of Restalrig was conferred on 
 Thomas Logan of Restalrig, by William, Bishop of St. Andrews.^ The 
 connexion between Restalrig and Leith was further strengthened by Royal 
 donations. There was a spacious building near the mouth of the harbour, 
 occupying a large extent of ground between the Broad Wynd and Bernard 
 Street, usually considered to have been a royal residence, and always 
 designed The King's Wark. None of our local writers, in tracing its his- 
 tory,^ seem to have been aware of the date of its erection ; but this is clearly 
 ascertained by the following payments entered in the Exchequer Rolls of 
 King James the Second : —

 From this building. King James the Third, by a charter dated 3d 
 November 1477, endowed a chaplainry in the Upper Chapel of the Parish 
 church of the Blessed Virgin of Lestalrig, by a mortification, besides some 
 other grants, of an annual rent of twelve marks from his land commonly 
 called Le Kingis Werk in the town of Leith and barony of Restalrig. At 
 the same time, the King conferred the chaplainry on his beloved orator and 
 chaplain Patrick Hog, whose duty, and that of his successors, was to say 
 daily mass for the salvation of the souls of the King, of his dearest consort, 
 Margaret, Queen of Scotland, their offspring, &c.^ 
 
 From the charters now first printed, we find that Restalrig was erected 
 into a Collegiate Chuech by King James the Third. The bull of Pope 
 Innocent VIII. which authorized the disjunction of Laswade as a mensal 
 church of the See of St. Andrews, and the annexing of it to Restalrig dedi- 
 cated to the Holy Trinity and the Blessed Virgin, states that the King had, at 
 his own expense, commenced to build in a sumptuous manner, and endowed 
 this Collegiate Church for a Dean and a suitable number of canons and pre- 
 bendaries. At the same time, authority was given for the induction of John 
 Frissell (or Eraser), presbyter of the diocese of St. Andrews, and Master of 
 Arts, as Dean. The bull is dated at Rome in November 1487, or within 
 seven months of the King's death. To the original church there had been 
 annexed one or more chapels, and upon an enlarged foundation mainly in- 
 tended for the cultivation of music. When we meet with the words Capella 
 Regia before the year 1500, the locality of the ' Chapel Royal' is sometimes

 very doubtful. In the Exchequer Rolls, July 1486-July 1487, £10, l6s. Od. 
 was paid, " Finlaio Fell latlmo pro certis tegulis lapideis ad capellam Domini 
 Regis contiguam ecclesie parochiali de Lestalrig." 
 
 On the 3d of May 1506, Sir Walter Gray, chaplain in Lestalrig, was 
 allowed to set in feu-farm " a land in the Cowgate of Edin'. for vj merkis, 
 quhilkis six merkis was conquest be umquhile our Soveran Lordis fader 
 (quhom God assolzye !) to the institution of ane Chapellain in Lestalrig."' 
 
 King James the Fourth was a chief benefactor, as appears from his 
 charter 18th October 1512,^ having granted the annual sum of £20, out of 
 the King's Work of Leith, for the maintenance of an additional chaplain ; 
 and having also bestowed the parsonage of Bute, with all its revenues, to 
 be equally divided into six free prebends. In the charter of 1515,3 these 
 several foundations are recapitulated, and the stipends and duties of the 
 dean, prebendaries, and singing boys, specially defined; and twelve 
 years later, the Rector}- of Ellem was annexed to Restalrig by King James 
 the Fifth. 
 
 The following list of the Deans of Restalrig may be considered as 
 complete. 
 
 Mr. John Frisale or Fraser, the first Dean, was a person of note, yet 
 there is some uncertainty regarding his parentage and early history. In 
 the Annals of the Fraser family he is said to have been a younger son of 
 Hugh, third Lord Lovat, educated at Oxford, and as Rector of Dingwall, 
 before he was promoted to the Deanery of Restalrig. Another authoritv 
 says, he was a natural son of Fraser of Fruid, in Peebles-shire, and a 
 Canon of Glasgow, Abbot of Melrose, in 1485, and Bishop of Ross, and that 
 he died in 1507, at the age of 78. In the Registers of the Universit\' of St. 
 Andrews, we find Joannes Fresaill among the Determinants in 1472, and 
 Mr. John Fresail, as Dean of the Faculty of Arts in 1479. He was, as 
 above stated, admitted to the Deanery of Restalrig when the Church became 
 Collegiate in 1487. Five years later he was appointed Clerk of Register 
 
 ' Reg. Seer. Siy. vol. iii. fol. 72, - Infra, p. 278. ^ Infra, p. 280.

 Rolls and Council. In the treaty of Peace with England, 15th of June 
 1493, he was one of the Commissioners, and is designated " Magister 
 Johannes Fresale, Dccanus Capelle Regie de Restalrig, Clcricus rotulorum 
 et registri ac consilii."^ Under the same titles his name appears in the Acta 
 Dominorum Concilii, 1492 to 1495. In the Exchequer Rolls, 21st June 
 1496-21st June 1497, we still find " Magister Johannes Fresale, Decanus 
 capelle regie de Lcstalrig." A few months later he was promoted to the 
 Sec of Ross ; and in the Privy Seal Register is a precept for the admission 
 of John, Bishop of Ross, " to the temporalitie of all landis, rentis, and 
 possessionis thairof," dated the 3d of January 1498, xi* year of James IV. 
 That the Bishop of Ross was not Rector of Dingwall, appears from a 
 charter of confirmation, by which John, Bishop of Ross, grants to the 
 vicars and chaplains of the Cathedral Church of Ross, an annual sum of 
 j£lO out of his property in Linlithgow, dated 10th May 1504, and one of 
 the witnesses to this deed is John Fresell, Rector of Dingwall." 
 
 We may be excused in adding a few words regarding Bishop Eraser. 
 He was not unmindful of his former charge, having founded the chaplainrv 
 of St. Triduan in St. Triduan's aisle in the Collegiate Church of Restalrig ; 
 and James the Fourth, by his charter, dated 18th of October 1512,* em- 
 powered the Abbots of Holyrood and Newbattle to erect it into a new 
 prebend. The Bishop finished the Cathedral of Fortrosc, and has the 
 report of having been a good hospitable man.* He died on the 5th of 
 February 1507, aged 78 ; and a monument, with the effigies of a Bishop, 
 in pontijicalihus, still preserved in that church, is said to be that of Eraser. 
 A letter under the Privy Seal was granted in favour of Sir Robert Fre- 
 sale, Dean of Ross, Alexander Fresale, and James Makyson, executouris to 
 umquhile John, Bishop of Ross, of the temporalities of the lands of the

 Bishoprick for one year, dated 1st of May 1507. It only remains to add, 
 that Alexander Fresale, burgess of Linlithgow, obtained from King James 
 the Fourth a charter of two-third parts of the lands of Arbole in the earl- 
 dom of Ross and shire of Inverness, which had fallen into the King's hands 
 " ratione bastardise Joannis quondam Episcopi Rossensis," 16th August 
 1507. 
 
 The Bishop of Ross was perhaps succeeded in the Deanery of Restalrig 
 by Mr. Henry Wood. In the Register of the Privy Seal,* is this notice : — 
 " A presentation to Mr. Henry Wood of the Deanery of Lestalrig, quhen 
 it sal happin to vak be promotion of Mr. Jo. Fresal to the Bishoprick of 
 Ross, or be resignation or dimission of him. De data x Scptembris, Anno 
 domini, etc., Ixxxxvij [1497.] et regno Regis x. per Signaturara : gratis." 
 
 No particulars regarding Wood have been discovered. On the suppo- 
 sition that he was duly inducted to the Deanery, he had for his successor, 
 Mr. Robert Boswell, a Canon of Dunkeld. His name as Dean of Restal- 
 rig occurs in the same Register, in a precept of confirmation to Walter 
 Cargill, of a charter " indentata per Magistrum Robertum Boswell, 
 Decanum de Lestalrig, Canon. Dunkeld. ac Prebend, de Fongort," &c., 
 16 November 1507.^ Myln, in his Lives of the Bishops of Dunkeld, written 
 in the year 1515, and dedicated to Bishop Douglas, and the chief persons 
 connected with the cathedral church, includes Boswell prebendary of Fon- 
 gort, as an open-hearted, hospitable man (liberali et magnarum expensarum 
 viro), who completed the mansion house of his prebend, and other build- 
 ings ; and he informs us he was a son of Boswell of Balmuto. Mr. Robert 
 Boswell, parson of Auchterderran, is stated to have been the son of David 
 Boswell by his second marriage with Lady Margaret Sinclair, daughter of 
 William, Earl of Orkney and Caithness.' Such a pai-entage was likely 
 enough to insure his church preferment. His birth may be placed about 
 the year 1458. The name of Ro. Boswel appears first in the list of Deter- 
 minants in 1475, and Mr. Ro. Boswell dives in that of the Licentiates, in

 1477, at the University of St. Andrews. In November 1478, when chosen 
 Dean of the Faculty of Arts, he is styled Rector of Auchterderran. In 
 May 1479> " venerabilis et nobilis vir Magister Robertas Boswel" was 
 elected Rector of the University, and again in February 1489-90. By 
 some private arrangement, Boswell resigned the Deanery of Restalrig in 
 1510. 
 
 Mr. Thomas Dickson, one of the Canons of Aberdeen, who succeeded, 
 was educated at St. Andrews, and took the usual degrees in the year 1492. 
 His name as Provost of the Collegiate Church of Guthrie in Forfarshire, 
 occurs 20th March 1508-9;^ and his presentation to Restalrig is as 
 follows : —

 Decanatus de Lestalrig pertinet pro collatione conferenda Magistro Thome Diksoun canonico

 He was also prebendary of Turreff, Aberdeenshire, and on the 24th 
 August 1511, he obtained a presentation to the rectory of Dunbar.^ The 
 precepts for the royal charter (printed at p. 277), which grants two acres of 
 meadowland on the south side of the church of Lestalrig, is dated 15th 
 October that year ;* and on the 18th May following, the King issued a pre- 
 sentation, directing the Bishop of the Isles to grant collation to Mr. Thomas 
 Dickson, Dean of Lestalrig, to the rectory of Bute, vacant by the decease 
 of Mr. Robert Abirnethy.^ Another change in the Deanery took place 
 within four years, as 
 
 Mr. John Douglas, who must have obtained a presentation to the 
 office, by a kind of simoniacal bargain, resigned to the next Dean his claim 
 of right, title, &c., which was sanctioned by the Lords of Council, on the 
 27th of June 1515:—

 Mr. Patrick Covyntre, bachelor of Decrees and Divinity, was probably 
 a native of Lanarkshire. He was long connected with Glasgow, where he 
 was incorporated in 1487, and was for several years one of the principal 
 Regents of that University.^ He held the vicarage of Glencarne in 1493, 
 and the rectory of Garvald in 1503.^ On the 7th June 1510, James the 
 Fourth conferred on him a yearly pension of £40, to cease when the King 
 should promote him to a benefice of the value of 100 marks yearly.^ In 
 the Exchequer Rolls, 1515, there are the following payments to Coventre,

 RESTALRIG. li 
 
 Mr. Patrik Covyntre, Dean of the Collegiate Church of Eestallryg, 
 was one of thirteen ambassadors for negotiating a treaty of peace with Eng- 
 land who obtained a safe-conduct from Henry VIII., 6th February 1515-6.1 
 Judging from the date of his successor in the Deanery, we may conclude 
 that he died about the year 1524; and in consequence of some special 
 endowment, we find it stated, in 1539, that the services of the vicar of 
 Strathevin (in the presbytery of Hamilton) included prayers " pro anima 
 quondam venerabilis viri Magistri Patricii Covintre Decani de Lestalrig."2 
 
 Mr. William Gibson, second son of Thomas Gibson, the ancestor of 
 the family of Gibson of Durie in Fife, became successor to Covyntre as 
 Dean of Restalrig about the year 1525. He received his education at the 
 University of Glasgow, where he was incorporated in 1503, and took his 
 Master's degree in December 1507.^ He afterwards obtained the vicarage 
 of Garvock, and in 1518, we find him styled Hector of Innerarity.^ His 
 name as Dean appears as a witness to a deed on the 12th of April 1526.' 
 He was nominated one of the Senators on the Spiritual side, when the 
 Court of Session was instituted, 27th of May 1532 ; and from the Acts of the 
 Lords of Council and Session he seems to have taken a regular and active 
 share in legal matters. On account of his extensive abilities he was, 
 according to Douglas, frequently employed by King James V. in embassies 
 to the Pope, who honoured him with the armorial bearing of three keys, 
 and the following motto, Ccelestes pancUte jwrtoe ; and adds, that as a 
 reward for his writings on behalf of the Scottish Church, he obtained the 
 title of Cttstos Ecclesice ScoticB.^ In May 1540, the Dean of Eestalrio- 
 became Suffragan to Cardinal Beaton, retaining the benefices which he 
 already held, and to receive in addition a pension of two hundred pounds 
 during his life. In the letter addressed by the King to Pope Paul III. 
 requesting the sanction of his Holiness to this arrangement. Dean Gibson

 Dr. John Sinclair, a younger son of Sir Oliver Sinclair of Rossh'n, 
 was educated at St. Andrews, and obtained the Deanery of Restalrig sub- 
 sequently to his appointment as an ordinary Lord of Session on the Spiritual 
 side, 27th April 1540. On this occasion he took his seat on the bench as 
 Rector of Snaw ; and he appears as such in the Minutes of the Court until 
 May 1542, after which there is a blank in the Register. It is probable, 
 therefore, that Gibson was dead before 1545, Sinclair having been ap- 
 pointed Dean, and Mr. John Spittall succeeding him as Rector of Snaw."^ 
 In the Privy Seal Register is the following notice : —

 The Dean of Restalrig, in Foxe's account of the trial and condemnation 
 of Adam Wallace in 1550, is mentioned as "a worldlie wise man, and not 
 ungodlie in understanding of the truth."* At a later period (under the 
 year 1557), Knox says, " that perfyt hypocryte Maister John Sinclare, 
 then Dean of Restalrige, and now Lord President and Bishop of Brechin, 
 began to preach in his Kirk of Restalrig ; and at the beginnyng held him- 
 self so indifferent [impartial], that many had opinion of him, that he was 
 nott far from the kingdom of God."^ And again, he speaks of him, " blynd 
 of ane eie in the body, but of boith in his saule."" Having attended his

 as Lord President. About the same time he was also advanced to the See 
 of Brechin. But Sinclair did not long enjoy these honours, having died of 
 fever on the 9th of April 1566.'' 
 
 Mr. James Lauder, the next Dean of Restalrig, was second son of Robert 
 Lauder of Bass. It is a singular circumstance to find an Act of Privv 
 Council, 13th March 1572-3, stating that "letters were raised at the instance 
 of Mr. James Lauder, Dean of Restalrig, against his father Robert Lauder 
 of Bass, who still detains him in strait prison in Beill."^ The cause of such 
 imprisonment at Beill, his father's residence in East Lothian, is nowhere 
 stated, but from some other unexplained reason he must have soon after 
 relinquished his office of Dean. It may be added in connexion with his family 
 history, that his elder brother. Sir Robert Lauder of Poppill knight, pre- 
 deceased his father, on whose death, in June 1576, James succeeded to the 
 property, but he was murdered by his servant in October 1580.' 
 
 Mr. Thomas Douglas had a grant of the Deanery of Restalrig, which 
 became vacant " by the simple dimission and resignation of Mr. James 
 Lauder, last Dean and possessour thairof," reserving a pension of £100 to Mr. 
 Nicholas Elphinston, 10th November 1573.^ Douglas was minister of Stra- 
 brock, and was translated in the following year to the united parishes of Dal- 
 keith, Las wade, and Glencorse. He derived little advantage from such pre- 
 ferment, having died in June 1575. In his latter will, dated 20th May 1575, 
 Mr. Thomas Dowglas, Dean of Restalrig, constituted " his spouse, Marion

 loyalty and attachment as a Douglas to the Regent Earl of Morton is suffi- 
 ciently apparent. 
 
 Mr. George Ramsay was presented to the Deanery of Restalrig, 
 with the same reservation of Elphinstoun's pension, 25th October 1575.^ 
 About the same time he was also admitted minister of Dalkeith, Laswade, 
 and Glencorse : his stipend " the haill twa-pairt of the Denerie of Restalrig 
 quhairunto he is newlie provided, £64, 4s. 5d., 1 chalder, 12 bollis quheit," &c. 
 In order to obtain possession of the various deeds connected with the 
 Deanery, Ramsay instituted an action before the Commissaries of Edinburgh 
 against Sir William Sinclair of Rosslyn, into whose hands they no doubt 
 came upon the death of the Lord President. The decreet of the Com- 
 missaries contains an inventory of the several documents which were then 
 produced and transferred to the new Dean. It is curious and worth pre- 
 serving in this place : —

 RESTALRIG. 
 
 lix 
 
 Of the Collegiate Church of Rcstalrig we have neither description, 
 plan, nor representation to furnish us with any correct idea of its appearance 
 and character. It must have been a building of considerable extent, with 
 houses attached for the Dean and Prebendaries. That it was also richly 
 decorated may be inferred from the circumstance that one of the earliest 
 acts of the first General Assembly, on the 21st of December 1560, was to 
 sive directions for its demolition : — " The Ministers and Commissioners for- 
 saids being assemblit, finds that the ministrie of the word and sacraments of 
 God, and assembhc of the peiple of the whole parochin of Restalrig, be 
 within the Kirk of Leith ; and that the Kirk of Restalrig, as a monument of 
 idolairie, be ra^sit and utterlie caste downe and 
 destroyed."^ That this injunction was carried into 
 effect, appears from an incidental notice in a con- 
 temporary work, the "Diurnal of Occur rents," 
 respecting the use to which the materials were 
 applied. During the siege of the Castle of Edin- 
 burgh, in August 1571, when the city was divided 
 by contending factions, with the view of strength- j 
 ening the walls, a new port or gate was erected ) 
 inside of the Netherbow Port, and for this pur- 
 pose there was taken " all the aisler stanes 
 (wrought stones) that Alexander Clerk (who was 
 afterwards Provost of the city) had gadderit 
 of The Kirk of Restalrig to big (build) 
 his hous with ; and als all stanis and lyme gad- 
 derit be Neil Layng to big his hous with."2 
 An engraving of the Collegiate Seal is here annexed. 
 
 Notwithstanding the suppression of Restalrig " from henceforth and for 
 ever," as a separate parish by Parliament in 1609, we find from the Minutes

 Ix EESTALRIG. 
 
 of the Kirk-Session of Leith, that forty years later a proposal for its restora- 
 tion was contemplated. Our Minister, it states, " Mr. Alexander Gibsone, 
 this 29th of Aprill 1649, did intimat to our Sessione, That the Presbyterie 
 of Edinburgh are of that mynd and purpose, with the consent of the Lord 
 Balnierinoch, to cause erect the Kirk of Eestalrig, and to devyd [it] from 
 the kirk and congregatione of South Leith." The Presbytery Piecords are 
 not preserved to throw any further light on this scheme.^ At that period 
 the property of Eestalrig belonged to Lord Balnierinoch. Some portions of 
 Eestalrig Church which were allowed to remain, consisted of the Eastern 
 window and the walls of the Chancel. At length, in the year 1836, the 
 ruins were restored, and converted into a place of worship, being used as 
 a chapel in connexion with the parish church of Leith. There are engraved 
 views by Grose, Storer, and others, but not very correct, of the ruined 
 church prior to this restoration. The one here given is from a sketch by 
 James Skene of Eubislaw, Esq., taken in the year 1817 or 1818, while the 
 wood-cut vignette, at page Ixiv, from a drawing made at the same time, 
 represents the church as seen from the village. 
 
 The cemetery around these walls was principally resorted to as a bury- 
 ing place by those of the Episcopal communion, for the convenience of 
 performing the offices of the dead. The mausoleum-looking building in the 
 former view, contributed in no small degree to the picturesque appearance of 
 this retired spot, being covered with turf and overshadowed with yew trees. 
 Although often said to have been the crypt or famil}" vault erected by Sir 
 Eobert Logan of Eestalrig (who died in 1440-41), by whom indeed it may 
 have been built, while it has been used as such by successive proprietors,^ it 
 was undoubtedly attached to the College, perhaps as the chapter-house, or 
 as St. Triduan's chapel. The building is hexagonal, and is constructed in-

 ternally with a groined roof, the ribs springing from a centre pillar two 
 feet in diameter, with small vaulting shafts attached to the wall ; and the 
 dimensions may be stated as fifteen feet on each side from the present 
 base of the pillar, thus nearly corresponding with the sixteen feet of 
 each of the hexagonal sides of the wall. On the sale of the forfeited 
 estates in Kestalrig and Leith, of Arthur, Lord Balmerinoch, by the 
 Barons of Exchequer, in 1755, James Earl of Moray was the purchaser, 
 at £16,961. As this crj'pt is not now used as a burying-place, one in- 
 terment only within recollection having been permitted, it has been sug- 
 gested, that if the area were cleared, and the windows opened, which at 
 present are filled with ruble work, and the stone floor replaced, it would 
 be a charming specimen of the architecture of the fifteenth century, of 
 which so few specimens now exist in this part of the country. It would also 
 be desirable to examine the great pile, apparently of earth, on the top of the 
 building, as this might perhaps bring to light some remains of St. Triduan's 
 or the Upper Chapel. The accompanying section and elevation has been 
 kindly furnished by Mr. Andrew Kerr, Office of H.M. Works. Inside

 there is a large stone, the upper part broken off", with a shield of arms, 
 and an inscription as follows : — " Here • lyeth • ane • honorable ■ Lady • 
 lonet • Ker • Lady • Restalrig • quha • departit • this • lyfe • 12 • da}- • of • 
 Mali • Anno • 1526. I. K." The stone is not in its original position, and

 may have been brought from without. There are several burying enclo- 
 sures round the church, including that of " the late Ronald Craufurd of 
 Restali'ig, Esquire," its door built up with stone ; some of these may likely 
 enough be of an early date. 
 
 In former days the town of Restalrig must have been a place of much 
 greater importance than might be deemed from the straggling houses of the 
 present village. Whether Logan's house was that known as Lochend, or 
 on the site of what is now called Restalrig-house, is doubtful. 
 
 " At the distance of about a mile (says Maitland) from the Watergate, 
 at the foot of the Canongate, lies the Lake of Lestalrig, vulgarly Loch-end. 
 This lake, which is about four hundred yards in length, half as much in 
 breadth, and where deepest about eighty feet, as 'tis said ; and the fish 
 wherewith it is said to abound are only pikes and eels."^ For the King's 
 sport, no doubt, we find in the Treasurer's accounts, in 1507, " Item, the 
 xiij day of September (paid) to four men that rovvit in ane bote on the 
 Lough of Restalrig to affray fowles, vs." During the siege of Leith, in 
 1559-60, Bishop Lesley states, that "the Lord Gra}', Lieutenant of the 
 Inglis army ludged in Lestalrig town in the Deanis house, and many of all 
 thair hors and demi-lances."^ A house, with a small garden, not far from the 
 east end of the existing church, still retains the name of the Dean's House. 
 The old house of Craigentinny, in the immediate vicinity, formerly giving 
 a title to the family of Nisbet, is of the fifteenth century. 
 
 Before passing from Restalrig to Corstorphine, it may be proper to add 
 a few words regarding the parish Church of South Leith. This old fabric, 
 which was restored and somewhat remodelled in 1845, was erected towards 
 the close of the fifteenth century. Chalmers, who calls it " the chapel of 
 the Virgin," says it had existed a century and a half before 1 560. That there 
 may have been such a chapel is by no means improbable, but some of 
 his references expressly call it the Virgin Mary's Kirk ; as in 1490, when

 Peter Falconer of Leith granted an annuity of 13 marks for supporting a 
 chaplain at St. Peter's altar; and in 1499, when Gilbert Edmonston of 
 Leith, bestowed 12 merks of rent to St. Barbara's altar.* In an instrument 
 of seisin, in favour of William Lauder and his spouse, the property is 
 described as contiguous to the churchyard of '■Hhe New Kirk of the Blessed 
 Virgin Maru in Leith," 3d of November 1496." On the 2d of August 1501. 
 John Logan, patron of the altar of St. Eoche the Confessor, situated in nova 
 ecclesia Beate Marie de Leith, presented Sir Patrick Matheson to the chap- 
 lainry of that altar, then vacant by the death of Robert Cairns.^ 
 
 It has already been stated, that the General Assembly in 1560, when 
 ordering the Church of Eestalrig to be destroyed, enjoined the parishioners 
 to repair to the church of South Leith. But they appear to have considered 
 this a hardship ; and among other matters submitted bj' the Provincial Synod 
 to the General Assembly in October 1583, it is recorded, "Of old, Leitli 
 and Eestalrig wes one parish, and the parish kirk stood in Eestalrig ; while 
 now by the Act of the Assemblie it is ordained to be in Leith, and yet Eestal- 
 rig refuses, in respect of old alledged priviledges. Ansicer, Ordains the 
 Prcsbytrie of Edinburgh to tak ordour heirwith."^ It was not however 
 until 24th June 1609, that South Leith was erected by Act of Parliament 
 into a distinct parish, and St. Mary's Church declared to be the parish 
 church, and " the kirk of Eestalrig to be suppressed and extinct from hence- 
 forth and for ever ;" and that the benefice of Eestalrig, parsonage thereof, 
 with the glebe and manse, pertain to the minister of Leith. ^ 
 
 The first Protestant Minister of Leith, Mr. David Lyndsay, was the 
 son of Eobert Lyndsay, v?ho was slain at Pinkie in 1547, a youno-er son 
 of Walter Lyndsay of Edzell in the shire of Angus. "^ He early em- 
 braced the reformed doctrines, and at the nomination of ministers to the 
 chief towns, in July 1560, he was appointed to Leith, his stipend 300 merkis;

 or £200, as stated in 1574, part of it being the thirds of the parsonage of 
 Restalrig, amounting to £82, 8s. lOd., with the four acres of kirk-land. i 
 At a later period it Included " the haill personage and vicarage of Restal- 
 rige," valued at £247, 6s. 8d." His name frequently appears in ecclesiastical 
 proceedings, and he accompanied King James the Sixth in his voyage to 
 Denmark in 1589. In IGOO, when the King, as the first step to introduce 
 Episcopacy, obtained an Act of Assembly permitting ministers to sit and 
 vote in Parliament, Lyndsay was promoted to the See of Ross ; but he still 
 continued his charge as a parochial minister. He died at Leith, on the 14th 
 of August 1613, at the age of 83, being probably the last survivor of his 
 brother Reformers. It may be added, that he had for his colleague and 
 successor in the Church of Leith, in 1609, a namesake, but no relative, 
 Mr. David Lindesay, who published An Heavenly Chariot, at St. Andrews, 
 1622, 4to. This forms the first portion of his volume entitled. The Godly

 CORSTORPHINE. 
 
 The parish of Corstorphine, anciently written Crostorfyn, lies in the 
 valley between the Pentland and the Corstorphine hills, about three miles 
 west of Edinburgh. Previously to the reign of David the First, in the 
 year 1128, when he founded the Abbey of Holyrood, there existed a chapel 
 connected with the manor of Corstorphine, and subordinate to the church 
 of St. Cuthbert, Edinburgh. In the foundation charter, the King grants and 
 confirms to the newly-erected Abbey the church of St. Cuthbert, under the 
 Castle wall of Edinburgh, with all its dependencies and pertinents, includ- 
 ing the chapels of Corstorphine and Liberton : " cum duabus capellis que 
 ad eandeui ecclesiara Sancti Cuthbcrti pertinent, scilicet Crostorfin cum 
 duabus bovatis terre et sex acris, et ilia capella de Libertune, etc."^ There is 
 also among the Holyrood charters, one of Normaini SheriflP (Vicecomes) of 
 Berewic, in the same reign, which conveys to the Abbot and Convent of 
 the Holy Cross of Edinburgh, " capellani meam de Corstorfin, cum omni- 
 bus rectitudinibus capelle eidem pertinentibus."- This chapel, we may 
 suppose, was afterwards known as the parish church. The earliest Lords 
 of the manor upon record were the Marischcls, succeeded by the Mores of 
 Abercorn, until the year 1376, when the property was acquired by Adam 
 Forrester, an opulent merchant-burgess of Edinburgh. His name first 
 appears in the public records in 1362 ; and in the following year, with several

 other Scottish merchants, he had a safe-conduct, being styled Adam For- 
 rester, mercator de Scotia.' He was Alderman or Provost of Edinburgh 
 in 1373, 1378, and 1387 ; he also held several offices of trust ; and was taken 
 jjrisoner at the battle of Homildon Hill in 1402, but was speedily ransomed. 
 About the same time he obtained the honour of knighthood. He died on 
 the 13th October 1405, and was probably interred in a chapel, dedicated 
 to John the Baptist, which he himself had founded beside the parish church 
 of Corstorphiue. His widow survived him for many years. The service 
 of his son and heir. Sir John Forrester, is dated 6th November 1405.^ 
 On the outer wall at the west end of the belfry, or the detached building- 
 used as the Session-house, there is inserted a stone with a monumental in- 
 scription to Sir Adam Forrester. 
 
 The first charter of donation and confirmation by King James the First, 
 of £24 for the endowment of three chaplainries in the chapel contiguous to 
 the parish church of Corstorphine, is dated at Edinburgh, 25th February 
 1425-6. Of this endowment, according to the terms of the charter, the 
 sum of £20 was bestowed by the King himself, and not simplj' paid out of 
 his coflPers by way of compensation ; with the additional sum of £4 (con- 
 sisting of two payments of 53s. 4d., and 26s. 8d.) from annual rents in Edin- 
 burgh, bestowed by the late Sir x\dam Forrester.^ In like manner, in the 
 Chamberlain KoUs, in the account rendered by the Ballivus of Edinburgh, 
 28th May 1434, the discharge includes " Et tribus capellanis per Regem 
 fundatis in capella beati Johannis Baptiste contigua ecclesie parochiali de 
 Corstorphine percipientibus annuatim viginti libras de firmis dicti burgi de 
 Edinburgh, &c., xx li."* But among the unprinted Exchequer Rolls, in 
 the year 1500, we find, " Et Preposito et Canonicis de Corstorphine per- 
 cipientibus annuatim viginti libras ex concessione domini Johannis Fores- 
 tair et confirmatione domini Regis Jacobi primi ut patet in rotulis prece- 
 dentibus dictis Preposito et Canonicis per suas literas fatentibus solutionera

 super compotum xx li."i The right of patronage at least was conferred on 
 Sir John Forrester, who had granted three acres in the village for erecting 
 houses to the chaplains, with pasturage for three horses and three cows. 
 On the same day (25th February 1425-6) Sir John endowed, with £6, 13s. 
 4d., a chaplainry at St. Ninian's altar in St. Giles's church, Edinburgh, for 
 prayers for the welfare of the King and Queen, and for the souls of the late 
 Sir Adam and of Margaret Forrester, his father and mother, and of Mar- 
 garet, his deceased spouse.^ Sir John at this time was Master of the 
 King's Household and Great Chamberlain of Scotland. 
 
 The second charter of Corstorphine church was evidently the one by 
 which Dame Margaret Forrester, Sir Adam's relict, who still survived, 
 and Sir John, their son, bestowed an annual rent of £21, 13s. 4d. for the 
 support of two additional chaplains and two clerks in the same chapel of 
 Corstorphine. It was confirmed on the 26th May 1429- The erection of 
 the Collegiate Church is usually assigned to that year, when the build- 
 ings were commenced, as the inscription on the first Provost expressly 
 states, " istud collegium incepit a. d. 1429." It seems, however, from the 
 Papal bull in 1444, that the foundation of the Collegiate Church was onlj' 
 then completed. In Sir Lewis Stewart's MS. collections, so often quoted 
 for transcripts of old ecclesiastical deeds, there is an abridged copy of the 
 Corstorphine charter of 1444 ; he has also preserved this inaccurate title 
 of what may be called the second foundation charter : " Fundatio Ecclesie 
 Collegiate de Corstorphin [per Johannem Forrester?] militem, ab Henrico 
 Wardlaw Episcopo Sancti Andree confirmata, anno 1429."^ Sir John For- 
 rester, the Great Chamberlain, is erroneously said to have died in 1440, 
 and to have been succeeded in the office of Chamberlain by James Lord 
 Crichton.^ On the return of King James from England he had been 
 appointed Master of the Household (Magister Ilospicii), 1424. In the 
 Exchequer Rolls, Sir John Forrester appears as Chamberlain (Camerarius

 Scotia;) in May 1425, and so till June 1441 ; the Rolls for three or four 
 years of a subsequent date, which might have fixed the period of his decease, 
 being lost. That he was alive in 1444, when Corstorphinc was erected into 
 a Collegiate Church, is at least highly probable : the continuator of the 
 Scotichronicon, circa 1447, in his list of Collegiate Churches, names Cor- 
 storphhie " cujus fundator dominus Johannes Forster pater ;" but this does 
 not imply his being then alive. His son, the second Sir John Forrester, 
 who had been infeft during his father's life in 1430, is said to have died 
 before 15th September 1454; but this date is not well ascertained. We 
 find, however, that the grandson. Sir Alexander Forrester, was in possession 
 of the estates in the year 1463.1 
 
 The third charter of foundation of Corstorphine incorporates the bull 
 of Pope Eugene IV., already referred to, dated at Eome, 15th July 1444. 
 It states that Sir John Forrester had assigned the annual rent of 120 gold 
 ducats for sustaining the provost, four prebendaries, and two singing 
 boys, with the view of completing the Collegiate establishment ; and directs 
 Patrick, Abbot of Holyrood, as his apostolic vicar, to unite and incor- 
 porate the church of Ratho, with all its rights and emoluments, to the 
 said College for ever, the additional chaplains to be maintained out of the 
 fruits of that benefice. In virtue of such authority, James, Bishop of St. 
 Andrews, on the 30th October that year, gave his sanction confirming the 
 proposed arrangements. The original deeds are not known to be preserved, 
 but, on the 6th March 1628, an action was raised "at the instance of Mr. 
 Alexander M'Gill, advocate, son lawfuU to umquhill Mr. David M'Gill of 
 Nisbet, sometime advocate to our Soveranis dearest father, against Sir 
 George Forrester of Corstorphin knight, patron of the Provostrie of Cor- 
 storphin, and haifar (possessor) of the foundation;" and the Third founda- 
 tion charter being accordingly produced, the Lords of Council ordained the 
 same "to be transumed,""- &c. From the ofiicial transumpt then made, 
 compared with " this authentic copy" in the Register, it is now printed 
 ( Infra, p. 298-304).

 CORSTORPHINE. Ixix 
 
 Regarding the ecclesiastical buildings connected with Corstorphinc 
 there is great uncertainty. The chapel of St. John the Baptist, founded 
 before 140.5, is said to be contiguous to the parish church; and the latter 
 is usually held to have been distinct from the College. The old church 
 in all probability, like most buildings of the kind, was of small extent, but 
 may have been enlarged from time to time in having such chapels attached 
 to it. No part of the present building, as it now exists, is earlier than the 
 middle of the fifteenth century. Under each of two arched recesses on the 
 north wall of the chancel there are recumbent figures of a knight in armour, 
 and a ladv, with armorial bearings, carved on the front of these monu- 
 ments, which clearly indicate the two Sir John Forresters, who flourished 
 during the first half of that century,' and lead to the conclusion, that the 
 monuments and this part of the edifice must have been subsequent to the 
 death of the second Sir John Forrester, about the year 1454. In a similar 
 recess in the wall of the south transept, there is another recumbent figure 
 of a knight in armour, said traditionally to be the monument of Bernard 
 Stewart, Lord of Aubigny, who came to Scotland in an embassy to. King 
 James the Fourth, but died at Corstorphinc, within a short time of his 
 arrival, in the house of Archibald Forrester, in June 1508. In his testa- 
 ment he expressly says, — " Inprimis, Do et lego animam meam Deo omni- 
 potenti Beate Marie A^irgini et omnibus Sanctis corpusque meum sepelien- 
 dum fore in ecclesia Fratrum Nigrorum Edinburgi. Item, Lego in die 
 sepulture mee in funeralibus pauperibus aliis piis operibus et dictis fratribus 
 xiiij lib."- Agreeably to this request, we may conclude, that instead of the 
 church of Corstorphinc, he was interred in the monastery of the Black- 
 friars, Edinburgh ; more especially as the monument is unquestionably of 
 an older date, and the shields with arms indicate a Forrester.*

 Nicholas Bannachtyn or Bannatyne, was the first Provost of the 
 Collegiate Church. He pursued his studies at the newly erected University 
 of St. Andrews, his name occurring, as one of the Determinants, in 1423, 
 and as a Licentiate or Master of Arts in 1425. According to his monu- 
 mental inscription, he became Provost in 1429, the year in which the Col- 
 legiate Church is said to have been founded. We also find his name, 
 " Magister Nicholaus de Bannochtyne, Magister in artibus, Prepositus 
 capelle Collegiate de Corstorfine," occurring as a witness to an instrument 
 of seisin of the barony of Corstorphinc, 15th September 1436.^ He filled 
 that office for nearly half a century ; and in the inner wall of the chancel, 
 apparently transferred from the place where he was buried, is the following 
 inscription : —

 The last words Orafe pro animabus eorum are scarcely legible, having 
 apparently been pui'posely obliterated ; and the blank space on the stone 
 after the numerals m.cccc.lxx. may lead to the conjecture that the inscrip- 
 tion was prepared by Bannatyne during his own life, as he certainly sur- 
 vived the year 1470. This is proved by a charter of confirmation, under 
 the Great Seal, of a grant by William de Camera or Chalmers, Vicar of 
 Kirkurd, of certain lands in Corstorphinc for sustaining a secular priest to 
 minister at the altar of St. Anne in the parish church, and one of the wit- 
 nesses was Mr. Nicholas Bannachtyne, Provost of the Collegiate Church 
 of Corstorphine, 20th September 1473.^ 
 
 M«. James Douglas was the next Provost, but nothing is known re-

 specting his connexion with this College beyond the circumstance that 
 "Maffistcr Jacobus Dou"las, Prepositus de Corstorphing et Dccanus de 
 Hadingtone," appears as witness to a charter dated at Dalkeith, 1st Sep- 
 tember 1479/ At the University of St. Andrews, we meet in the Register 
 with the name of Jacobus Douglas among the Determinants in 1466 ; of 
 Jacobus Douglas, canonicus de Dalkeith, among the Licentiates in 1468 ; 
 and another, Ja. Dowglace, in 1471. 
 
 In continuing the list of Provosts, it is uncertain who Douglas had 
 for his immediate successor. 
 
 RowLL OF CoRSTORPHiNE, who is rcckoncd among the early Scottish 
 Poets, may have perhaps been Provost of the Collegiate Church. He 
 flourished towards the end of the fifteenth century; but all particulars of his 
 history are unknown, his name only having been embalmed by his contem- 
 porary Dunbar in his " Lament for the Makeris," written about the year 
 1.507. Referring to Death, he says, — 
 
 He has tane Eowll of Abirdene, 
 And gentill Rowll of Corstorphine ; 
 Twa better fallowis did no man se :

 It still remains uncertain to which of them should be assigned the strange 
 rhapsody, entitled

 Mr. James Mercuamston, whose name as Provost of the Collegiate 
 Church of Corstorphine next occurs, was, in August 1512, one of the Audi- 
 tors of the Treasurer's Accounts. He is also named in various deeds, 
 preserved in the Edinburgh Protocol books, between August 1512, and 
 September 1518. He was Rector of Hawick in 1504 ; and from the Trea- 
 surer's Accounts he seems to have been employed at the Court of James

 the Fourth, having in 1502, received £50 "for ane young gray horse, 
 brocht hame be him furth of Flanders," &c. In a letter of James the Fourth, 
 1 1th January 1507-8, he is styled " Magister Jacobus Mercheinstone noster 
 familiaris."! He probably survived till 1526-7. 
 
 Sir Robert Cairncross, chaplain to King James the Fifth, before he 
 obtained the Abbacy of Holy rood, in 1528, had been presented to the pro- 
 vostry of Corstorphine. The date of his investiture as Provost was the 
 5th of May 1527-^ It may be added, that in 1539, he obtained a grant of 
 the temporalities of the see of Ross, and in the following year was received 
 Bishop, and also held the Abbacy of Fearn in commendam. He died 30th 
 November 1545, and was buried in the Chanonry of Ross. 
 
 Sir Alexander Scott, by the promotion of Abbot Cairncross, in 1528, 
 became next Provost of Corstorphine. The name was so common, that we 
 cannot presume to identify the persons of that name who incidentally are met 
 with towards the end of the fifteenth and first half of the sixteenth century. 
 It might have been the future Provost of Corstorphine (Dominus Alexander 
 Scott, presbyter) who obtained a presentation to the vicarage pensionary of 
 Glenquhome (in Peeblesshire), 6th April 1505.^ He at least was keeper of 
 the Rolls of Exchequer for many years, as we learn from payments in the 
 Treasurer's Accounts between 1512 and 1542. On the 6th April 1529, 
 Schir Alexander Scott, Provost of Corstorphine raised an action regarding 
 the crops of Ratho for this instant year 1528 ;* and on the 8th March 
 1529-30, he appeared before the Lords of Council to deliver " the evidentis 
 of the Lordship of Dirltoun," which had been in his possession " for the 
 space of xii. or xiii. yeiris bigane."^ In Balfour's Practicks, a case is quoted,^ 
 The King contra Alex. Forestar, Provost of Corstorphine, 12th March 
 1529 ; but this is an evident mistake, as no such person was then Provost.

 CORSTORPHINE. Ixxiii 
 
 On the 10th January 1540, Sir Alexander Scott, Provost of Corstor- 
 j)hinc, founded a chaplainry at the altar of John the Baptist, St. Christo- 
 pher the martyr, and St. Ninian the confessor, in the church of Irvine.» 
 About the same time, a letter of King James the Fifth, under the Privy 
 Seal, was " maid to Schir Alexander Scott, provost of Corstorphine, in 
 his latter days," and in consideration of his long, faithful, and daily service, 
 " in all sessionis, chekkeris, and register," since the death of James 
 the Fourth, in 1513, and of his present inability " to ordour his benefice 
 as deuitio requiris," he received " free licence, liberty, and will to use and 
 dispone upon all his benefices, rentis, possessionis, and takis quhatsumevir 
 as he thinkis maist convenient and profitable."^ In the Treasurer's Accounts 
 for 152(j and subsequent years, his name occurs as one of the Auditors, and 
 as such he signs the Accounts rendered l6th August 1542. He probably 
 died in the course of that year. 
 
 Mr. James Scott, who succeeded to the Provostry of Corstorphine in 
 1543, was the third son of Robert Scott of AUanhaugh and Whitchester. He 
 was educated for the Church, and, in the reign of James the Fifth, was Clerk 
 to the Treasury. In September 1533, there was paid " to Master James 
 Scott be the Kingis precept, and of consideratioun of the Lordis (Auditors) 
 for his labouris in the Kingis materis, £13, 6s. 8d." For his employment 
 " in dyting of the Rollis" of Exchequer, his annual fee was £13, 6s. 8d. 
 After he became Provost of Corstorphine, he was, like his predecessor, one 
 of the Auditors of the Treasurer's Accounts (from 1544 to 15G2) ; and in 
 the year 1554 he was appointed one of the Ordinary Lords of Session. He 
 died in the autumn of 1563. He built, at Corstorphine, a house or manse 
 for himself and successors, on which his arms, as Sir Robert Douf^las men- 
 tions, are still to be seen.' 
 
 Robert Douglas is the next Provost of whom we find any notice. 
 He was brother of Mr. John Douglas, parson of Kirkbryde, and one of 
 the prebendaries in the College Kirk of Dalkeith. He died at Clerking-

 ton, 23d January 1584-5, according to his Confirmed Testament by the 
 Commissaries of Edinburgh, 18th November 1586. In his latter Will, he 
 desires to be buried in the College kirk of Corstorphine. Mention is also 
 made of his children, and of James Douglas father brother to the Laird of 
 Corstorphine. His library was very select, consisting only " of xij bukis of 
 Scripture, and aucht bukis of prophane authors" — one of which he thus 
 bequeaths: "Item, to the Lady of Corstorphing, ane bulk callit Chaser 
 [Chaucer ?] quhilk the yung lady has borrowit fra him." 
 
 Mr. Alexander M'Gtll, Advocate, was probably but a youth when he 
 obtained a presentation to the Provostry of Corstorphine. From the pro- 
 ceedings in 1628, already mentioned (p. Ixviii.), we learn that Sir James 
 Forrester of Corstorphin " then remaining in the parts of France," had 
 appointed as his Commissioners Sir Lewis Bellenden of AuchinouU, Justice- 
 Clerk, Mr. David M'Gill, King's Advocate, and Thomas Inglis, portioner 
 of Auldliston ; and they lost no time in granting this presentation, on the 23d 
 of January 1584-5, being the same day when Douglas died. At the same 
 time letters were granted in favour of the said persewar and his said 
 umquhill father (Mr. David M'Gill) as lawful administrator for his entres, 
 &c., for the crop of the year 1585. It would however seem that M'Gill 
 had derived but small emolument from the presentation, since he required, 
 after a lapse of forty-three years, to institute legal proceedings, to ascertain 
 from the foundation charter what rights, &c., belonged to him as Provost ; 
 and to this circumstance we owe the preservation of the charter itself. — 
 For minuter information respecting the chief persons and families, and 
 other matters connected with Corstorphine, I may refer to the account 
 of the parish in the New Statistical Account, prepared by Thomas Thomson, 
 Esq., W.S., to whom I have been greatly indebted in the course of the 
 present investigation. 
 
 It only remains to add, that for several years after the Reformation, 
 Corstorphine was not recognised as a separate parish, being again reckoned 
 as a dependency of St. Cuthberts, having a Reader, with a stipend of £13,

 James Forrester had referred to various deeds in his possession, and he was 
 directed to produce them at a subsequent meeting ; when, " sycht and in- 
 spectioun being taken be the Presbyterle of sindrie foundations of the said 
 paroche kirk of Corstorphine, with bulles and other rychtis, it was found, 
 that the Kirk of Corstorphine is of old a Paroche kirk, unto the quhilk the

 June 1589,^ was succeeded in liis estates by his brother, Heniy Forrester. 
 Mr. Andrew Forrester, the first incumbent, was provided to the vicarage of 
 Corstorphine, vacant by the decease of Adam Bishop of Orkney, last vicar 
 thereof, 2.5th January 1593-4. The present building then became the 
 parish church, and has so continued to the present day. According to the 
 following extract from the Kirk Session book in May 1646, a new isle 
 was erected, most probably on the site of the old parish church, which was 
 then demolished, and the repairs or alterations made at that time may 
 account for some of the existing anomalies : —

 In the year 1828, when Corstorphine Church was again subjected to 
 the necessary but unfortunate process of restoration, we may regret that 
 its original form had not been retained, and that, contrary to all rules of 
 Gothic architecture, a doorway, with a small porch, should disfigure the east 
 wall of the chancel. But the primitive look of the church externally has to 
 some extent been preserved, the older portions still having the stone roof of 
 overlapping slabs of old grey flagstones, and the belfry-tower, with a short 
 octagonal spire, remaining unaltered. The plans, before such alterations 
 were made, have not been traced ; but the accompanying view of the church 
 is interesting as exhibiting its appearance in 1817, when the sketch was 
 made by James Skene of Rubislaw, Esq., an accomplished amateur artist, 
 who has preserved many similar views of ancient buildings in various parts 
 of the country, as well as in Edinburgh and its neighbourhood.

 CREYCHTOUN. 
 
 Creychtoun, Kreittoun, or Crichton, is a parish in the Presbytery of 
 Dalkeith, about twelve miles S.E. from Edinburgh. The Castle, an impos- 
 ing structure, now in ruins, is situated upon the precipitous bank or rock 
 forming the south side of the deep glen through which runs the Tyne. 
 This small stream, rising from the moor of Middleton, in the adjoining 
 parish of Borthwick, traverses Ormiston in East Lothian, and after a course 
 of about twenty miles falls into the Forth at Tyninghame. The church 
 of Creychtune, which had been a rectory from an early period, in the 
 Ecclesiastical Taxations of the twelfth century, is rated at xxx marks.' 
 There was also a chapel connected with the Castle, the ruins of which still 
 exist near the west walls, but quite distinct from the parish church.'' 
 
 Alanus Persona de Creichtoun, appears as a party in a dispute 
 respecting the rights of Keith and Creichtoun during the thirteenth cen- 
 tury.^ William de Kreittoun, son and heir of the late Thomas de Kreit- 
 toun, burgess of Berwick, was Rector of the church of Kreittoun, in May 
 1338, when he granted to the monks of Newbattle certain lands in New 
 Cranstoun.* The Church of Creychtoun, which stands on the same accli- 
 vity to the eastward of the Castle, may be referred to the middle of the 
 fifteenth century, when it was erected into a Collegiate charge. It appears

 never to have been completed ; but like so many similar structures, it con- 
 sists of a choir, with north and south transepts, and a square tower, the 
 nave of the original design having, apparently, from the changing fortunes 
 of its founder, been left unfinished. The eventful history of the Crichtouns, 
 the Hepburns of Bothwell, and of other families connected with the 
 Castle and Barony, is fully related by Sir Walter Scott in the Provincial 
 Antiquities, and his account is illustrated with admirable engravings of the 
 Castle, from designs by Turner and the Rev. John Thomson, and of the 
 Church, by Edward Blore. See woodcut vignette at page Ixxxii. 
 
 William Lord Creychtoun, who filled for several years the high office 
 of Lord Chancellor of Scotland, with the consent of Sir James Creychtoun 
 of Freudraught, his son and heir, converted the church into a Collegiate 
 establishment in 1448 or 1449, for a Provost, eight prebendaries, and two 
 sinf intf boys, for daily services, out of thankfulness and gratitude to Almighty 
 God for all the manifold deliverances he had vouchsafed to him. For the 
 support of this establishment, the Lord Chancellor had assigned the whole 
 revenues of the churches of Creychtoun and Locherwart (better known by 
 its present name of Borthwick), provision being made for the perpetual 
 vicars who were to serve these churches ; and the patronage of four of the 
 prebends was reserved to the Bishop of St. Andrews. 
 
 No original charters connected with this Church are known to be pre- 
 served, but an action having been raised before the Privy Council by Sir 
 Walter Scott of Branxholm, knight, and the parishioners of Crichtoun, 
 on the 14th Julv 1597, we learn that Mr. John Arthur, Advocate, was 
 ordered to produce the Register Book of the Bishoprick of St. Andrews, in 
 which the foundation charter of the Collegiate church, as ratified and con- 
 firmed by James, Bishop of St. xlndrews, 29th December 1449, had been 
 recorded. This Register Book is unfortunately not known to exist, but 
 the Privy Council having ordered the charter to be engrossed in their own 
 records, it is now printed from that source, with its ratification. 
 
 The Church itself, which has always been kept in good repair, we have
 
 CREYCHTOUN. Ixxix 
 
 assigned to the middle of the fifteenth century. The continuator of the 
 Scotichronicon has not included Creichtoun in his list of the Collegiate 
 churches, which indeed may have been written in 1447, one or two years 
 before its foundation. But there is an indenture or contract between 
 William Lord Creychtoun, Chancellor of Scotland, and Friar Michael 
 Gray, master of the Hospital of St. Anthony, Leith, in which mention is 
 made of certain lands granted " ad Ecclesiam parochialem de Crechtoun 
 seu Collegium iiiibi Deo duce fundandum," Kith May 1448.^ 
 
 I cannot pretend to furnish a complete list of the Provosts of this 
 Church, but the following notices may afterwards be enlarged by further 
 research were it of much importance. 
 
 Sir Peter Creychtoun, Parson of Locherwart, having consented to the 
 annexation and arrangements of 1449," he, in all probability, was the first 
 who held the ofiice of Pi-ovost of Crichtoun. 
 
 After a long interval, we find, in the Treasurer's Accounts the follow- 
 ing payment, 13th September 1.507: — "To the Provost of Crechtoun, in 
 the name of my Lord of Sanctandrois, in his purs when he departit, 186 
 French Crownis of wecht," amounting to £188, 10s. The Provost was 
 
 Sir Thomas Halkerstoun, and the payment was connected with his 
 proceeding to France and Italy, as tutor or preceptor of Alexander Stewart, 
 the young Archbishop of St. Andrews, a natural son of King James the 
 Fourth, when sent abroad to complete his education. In the King's letters 
 he is styled " Dominus Thomas Halkerstoun familiaris noster, Archiepis- 
 copi preceptor."^ They returned to Scotland in 1510; but the youthful 
 and accomplished prelate, to the regret of Erasmus and other learned men, 
 was slain at Floddon in 1513. Thomas Halkerstoun Prepositus de Crech- 
 toun, was one of the Auditors of the Treasurer's Accounts, 3d August 1513, 
 or one month before James the Fourth's death ;* and in October the Pro-

 vost of Crichtoun was one of the Council who were appointed to assist 
 the Queen Dowager, after that fatal day of Floddon. Sir Thomas Hal- 
 kerstoun, Provost of Creychtoun, had a letter under the Privy Seal, 22d 
 September 1515, with licence " to big fore-stayrs toward the hie street of 
 his land and tenement in Edinburgh."^ He also audits the same Accounts, 
 3d October 1516; and again 4th September 1518. 
 
 Mr. George Lockhart, the next Provost, was distinguished for his 
 learning and his writings on Dialectics and Philosophy. He was a native of 
 Ayr, and completed his education at the University of Paris ; where for 
 several years he was Professor of Natural Philosophy in the College of 
 Montacute. In November 1521, " Magister noster Mag. Georgius Lockhart, 
 S. Theol. Professor, Praepositus de Crechton" was chosen Rector of the Uni- 
 versity of St. Andrews ; and again in the years 1522 to 1525. In January 
 1 526-7, Robert (Schaw) Bishop of Murray issued a letter of commission to 
 the venerable and accomplished man Mr. George Lokcart, Professor of 
 Sacred Theology, and Provost of the Collegiate church of Creychtoun, 
 relating to certain bursaries in the University of Paris which had been 
 founded by one of his early predecessors, a Bishop of Murray." Lockhart 
 afterwards became Dean of Glasgow, and from the Obituary of that See, 
 we learn that he died 22d June 1547.' 
 
 The name of Lockhart's immediate successor is not known. Several 
 years had apparently intervened before the office was conferred on Chalmer 
 who is next met with as Provost of Creichtoun. 
 
 Mr. David Chalmer or Chalmers of Orniond, was born in the shire 
 of Ross, and was educated for the church, probably at King's College, 
 Aberdeen. He proceeded abroad, says Dr. George Mackenzie, and studied 
 Theology and the Laws in France and Italy.* On his return to Scotland, 
 he was successively appointed Parson of Suddy, Provost of Creichtoun,

 and Chancellor of the Diocese of Ross. The date of his appointment to 
 Creichtoun is uncertain. On the 2Gth January 1565, he was admitted 
 an Ordinary Lord on the Spiritual side, as Chancellor of Ross. In the 
 Parliament, 19th April 1567,^ her Majesty, Queen Mary, " havand respect 
 to the gud trew and obedient service done ... be hir familiar servitour and 
 counsallour Maister Dauid Chalmer Prouest of Creichtoun, nocht onlye in 
 this realme, bot in sic foreyn cuntreis as it pleisit hir Hienes to command 
 him, and that therthrow baith he put his persoun in perrell and danger," 
 &c., ratified and approved the charter under the Great Seal, of the lands of 
 Castleton and others in the Earldom of Ross, granted in his favour, 29th 
 December 15G0. Soon afterwards, being openly accused of having been 
 accessory to the murder of Darnley, and of having assisted Mary Queen of 
 Scots in her escape from Lochlevin, he considered it prudent to leave the 
 country ; and in the process or doom of forfeiture against the Hamiltons, 
 by Parliament, on the IQth August 1568, " Master David Chalmer Proweist 
 of Creichton" is included.^ During his residence in France, he published 
 in 1579, his " Histoire Abregee de tous les Roys de France, Angleterre 
 et Escosse," &c., along with two tracts, which he dedicated to Mary Queen 
 of Scots. After fifteen years' absence he returned to Scotland, and succeeded 
 in obtaining " his Hienes's pacification," 4th September 1583, ratified in 
 May 1584.^ On the 21st June 1586, he was restored to his seat on the bench.* 
 He died at the Chanonry of Ross, 18th October 1592 ; and by his last will, 
 made the same day, he appointed his son William Chalmer to be *' brocht 
 up be (his tutors) faythfuUie, as they will answer befoir God ;" and that 
 the eldest of his two daughters, when of perfect age, should marry the son 
 of John Chalmer of Tyrie, whom failing, any other of the house of Streichyn, 
 "at her awin plesour."' 
 
 Mr. Adam Johnstoun, minister of Creichtoun after Chalmer's for- 
 feiture in 1568, had obtained a grant of the provostship. He was educated

 at St. Andrews, being a Determinant in St. Salvator's College in 1555. 
 Whether he was in priest's orders, and held any living before the Reforma- 
 tion, is not known. It has already been noticed' that Soutra and Fala 
 were united to his parish in 1574, but they were again disjoined in 1589, 
 Johnstoun continuing minister of Creichtoun, as well as provost, and en- 
 joying the thirds of his benefice, with "the manse gleib and kirkland of 
 Creichtoun." In the year 1595, his stipend was "the haill Provostrie of 
 Creichtoun quherunto he wes provydit, £133, 6s. 8d." From incidental 
 notices in Calderwood, he appears to have taken an active share in church 
 matters, and to have been a zealous friend of Presbyterian church govern- 
 ment. He was present at the General Assembly in March 1595-6. "Mr. 
 Adam Johnstoun, Minister of Creichtoun," died at the close of that year. 
 In his last will, written at his request by the hand of Mr. Oliver Colt, 
 minister of Borthwick, and dated the 23d December 1596, he nominates 
 and appoints Elizabeth Borthwick, his spouse, his only executrix and tutrix

 DALKEITH. 
 
 The town of Dalkeith is situated between the rivers called the North 
 Esk and the South Esk, six miles from Edinburgh. It derived its chief im- 
 portance in early times from its baronial castle ; but, the male line of the 
 ancient family of Graham becoming extinct in the reign of David the Second, 
 the property, and also extensive possessions in Liddesdale, came by marriage 
 to the noble and powerful family of Douglas. It is, however, sufficient in 
 this place to refer to the account of the Knights of Liddesdale and of 
 the Lords of Dalkeith, which Sir Walter Scott has given in the Provincial 
 Antiquities; and also to Douglas and Wood's Peerage of Scotland, and the 
 notices contained in the Preface by Mr. Innes to the Morton Papers and 
 Charters, printed at the expense of the Bannatyne Club. But the early 
 history of the Douglases is still capable and worthy of further elucidation. 
 
 At an earlj' period there existed in the town of Dalkeith a chapel 
 dedicated to St. Nicholas. Robert the Second, in the second year of his 
 reign (1372), granted a license to James of Douglas to endow a chaplainry 
 in this chapel with the annual sum of £6, 13s. 4d. out of his lands of 
 Horsbruke.^ Five years later. Sir James of Douglas founded another 
 chaplainry out of his lands of Quilt and Fethane.^ In August 1380, Wil- 
 liam Bishop of St. Andrews gave institution to Sir Richard Mellok of 
 Aberbrothok to a vacant chaplainry in the said chapel.^ There was also

 Ixxxiv DALKEITH. 
 
 within the precincts of the Castle at Dalkeith a chapel dedicated to the 
 Virgin Mary and St. John the Baptist. Sir James of Douglas, first Lord of 
 Dalkeith, in founding a chaplainrj' there out of his lands of Louchurde and 
 40s. annually out of Kirkurde, enjoined that, should the said chapel be under 
 repair, the chaplain should perform his stated service within the chapel 
 of St. Nicholas, or, in the event of war rendering this impracticable in 
 either place, within the parish church of Lesswade.^ The charter is dated 
 5th December 1384. Sir James, as he advanced in life, was not un- 
 mindful of this chapel. The two interesting documents purporting to be 
 his Latter Will and Testament, dated respectively 30th September 1390 
 and 19th September 1392, are well known, and, it has been remarked,^ 
 they " are better calculated to convey a just notion of his rank and impor- 
 tance as a Scottish baron, than any historical document that remains to us." 
 By the first of these deeds he bequeathed his best horse and £10 to the 
 Vicar of Leswade ; and besides a cup and a missal, the sum of £20 for the 
 reparation and roofing of the chapel of St. Nicholas of Dalkeith. By the 
 second, after payment of his debts and numerous legacies, the above be- 
 quests being repeated, he assigns the residue of his goods to the fabric 
 and ornament of the said chapel, to the support of the poor, and to the 
 payment of chaplains for two years after his decease. He survived however 
 to the j^ear 1420, and was enabled to raise the chapel to the rank of a 
 Collegiate Church, and probably to see the buildings nearly completed, 
 having, with the consent of Henry "Wardlaw, Bishop of St. Andrews, pro- 
 vided out of his lands stipends and manses for a provost and five preben- 
 daries as perpetual chaplains, as detailed in his charter, dated 21st June 
 1406.^ Sir Walter Scott of Bukcleuch on the 25th January 1449-50, with 
 the consent of his eldest son and heir, David Scott, granted a renunciation 
 of his superiority over the lands of Lochurd and Kirkurd in favour of 
 John of Balkasky and his successors chaplains in the prebend of Kirkurd,*

 which had been founded by Sir James of Douglas in the Collegiate Church 
 of Dalkeith. 
 
 In the old Papal Taxations the church of Dalkeith is not included, 
 being still part of the Vicarage of Laswade which was rated at £10. Its 
 erection into a separate parish is detailed in an interesting local charter, 
 from which we learn, that in consequence of the inhabitants of Dalkeith 
 having represented the very great inconvenience and danger to which they 
 were exposed during tempestuous weather in having to cross the streams 
 that fell into the Esk, as they resorted to their parish church of Laswade, 
 about two miles distant, and also, that the vicarage teinds were amply suffi- 
 cient to sustain two vicars, Patrick, Bishop of St. Andrews, had accordingly 
 given his consent to the proposed disjunction. By this arrangement it was 
 declared that, upon the decease or demission of 
 
 Mr. James Lewyntoon, at that time vicar, the inhabitants of the 
 town and castle of Dalkeith, and of the park commonly called Graham's 
 Park, and other places in the neighbourhood, should be under the spiritual 
 jurisdiction of a separate vicar, to perform divine service at the altar of the 
 Blessed Virgin in the Collegiate Church of St. Nicholas of Dalkeith. The 
 original charter of confirmation, dated 1st October 1467, with the seals of 
 the Bishop and chapter of St. Andrews, is preserved in the charter-room 
 of Dalkeith House, and by permission of the Duke of Buccleuch, is now 
 printed in the Appendix to these Notices (p. cxvi.), as it was not recovered 
 in time to be inserted at p. 319 with the other deeds. 
 
 In the year 1477, the Collegiate Church of Dalkeith was farther 
 enlarged, when James first Earl of Morton added three canons, endowed 
 with the tithes of the three parishes of Newlands, Kilbucho, and Mordinf- 
 ton. As this charter of endowment is contained in the Morton Papers, vol. ii. 
 pp. 226-235, it was not thought necessary to swell the present volume by 
 giving more than the bull of erection of Pope Sixtus iv. Alexander GifFord, 
 parson of Newbattle, having founded two additional chaplainries for the 
 altars of the Crucifix and of St. John the Baptist within the Colleo-iate
 
 Ixxxvi DALKEITH. 
 
 Church of Dalkeith, this endowment was confirmed by a charter under 
 the Great Seal, 31st May 1504. It may be added, that among the Duke 
 of Buccleuch's charters is the deed of resignation and translation by Mr. 
 George Gifford of Scheriffhall, of his right of patronage to the above chap- 
 lainry of St. John the Baptist, in favour of James Earl of Morton. It is 
 dated 26th February 1517-18. 
 
 No Register connected with the Collegiate Church of Dalkeith has 
 been preserved, and the notices to be gleaned respecting the Provosts and 
 other officials are by no means complete4 
 
 Sir James Douglas Provost of Dalkeith is included in the safe con- 
 duct granted to James Earl of Douglas, to go to England in May 1453.^ 
 Jacobus de Douglas, Canonicus de Dalkeith, who was a licentiate at the 
 University of St. Andrews in 1468,- must be considered as a different 
 person ; and Mr. James Douglas, Provost of Creychton in 1479, has already 
 been mentioned. 
 
 Mr. William Gifford also was, in 1468, a licentiate at St. Andrews. 
 As prebendary of Dalkeith he is named in charters in the years 1479 and 
 1482.3 
 
 Sir John Crechtoun, vicar of the Collegiate Church of Dalkeith, is 
 noticed as taking instruments in the hands of the notary in the deed of 
 resignation 1517-18 above mentioned. There is also preserved an original 
 indenture between James Earl of Mortoun and " ane venerable clerk Schir 
 Johne Creichtoune vicar of Dalkeith," respecting the teind coals of Calder 
 and Dalkeith, dated 25th November 1531.* 
 
 Mr. Archibald Boyd, who became Provost, was probably a native of 
 Lanarkshire, and was educated at Glasgow. He was incorporated in that 
 University, 7th December 1507 ;^ but his intermediate employment, and 
 the date of his obtaining the provostry, have not been ascertained. His 
 connexion with Lanarkshire is suggested by his receiving under the Privy

 At the period of the Eeformation Dalkeith was settled as a Presby- 
 terian church. In 1567, Robert Wilsoun was minister with a stipend of 
 £150. He was translated to the adjoining parishes of Newbattle and 
 Melville in 1574,* and was succeeded by Mr. Thomas Douglas, minister 
 of Strabrok. Douglas, who had obtained a presentation to the Deanery of 
 Restalrig, under the Earl of Morton's administration, became minister of 
 the united parishes of Dalkeith, Laswade, and Glencorse. On his death in 
 1575 (as stated at pp. liii. liv.), Mr. George Ramsay became his successor, 
 both as dean of Restalrig and minister of Dalkeith, having the aid of a 
 reader, Anduew Robesoun, who received the third of the provostry of Dal- 
 keith, £8, 17s. 9d., with the whole vicarage of the same, extending to £13, 
 6s. 8d. During these changes there were still titular prebendaries of the 
 Collegiate church who continued to enjoy some of the fruits of the benefice.

 the consent of his patron James Earl of Morton, grants a charter of certain 
 church lands, I7th November 1579-^ William Douglas, one of the preben- 
 daries of the College kirk of Dalkeith, 23d November 1594, granted a dis- 
 charge for £8, 13s. 4d , as the few-mail of 12 acres of arable land at Gulane 
 in East Lothian, his " patrimony of the altarage callit the Rude Altar 
 foundation within the said College kirk, as prebendary of the same, or as 
 successor to umquhile Mr. Johnne Douglas my father, last prebender of 
 the samyn,"^ &c. 
 
 By some private arrangement Ramsay having resigned his paro- 
 chial charge of Dalkeith about the year 1582, Mr. Andrew Simsoun be- 
 came minister ;3 and in 1584, he subscribed the King's "Band."* In 1585 
 and 1586, the following entry occurs in the Assignations of Stipends : Dal- 
 KEYTH — Mr. Andrew Simsoun, minister his stipend to be paid, the third of 
 the Provestrie of Dalkeith, £8, 17s. 9d ; the haill vicarage of Dalkeith, 
 £13, 6s. 8d., — and smaller sums from other sources. But in " Certain 
 Grieves of the Kirk assembled in Edinburgh, and given to his Majesty," 
 2Uth February 1587-8, one was : " The Presbytery of Dalkeith complaineth 
 that manie of their kirks are destitute of pastors and provision, into the 
 which Papists flock and resort ; and that sundrie of the Minlstrie are be- 
 reft of their stipends by annexation, as, nameljj, Mr. Andrew Simsoun, whose 
 whole stipend is taken away and given to the Abbot of Newbattle."* 
 Whether Simsoun resigned in consequence of this alleged procedure is 
 somewhat doubtful : one of his sons became his successor in 1588, and his 
 stipend is entered in precisely similar terms. 
 
 Mr. Archibald Svmson, who was then admitted minister of Dalkeith, 
 consented, along with Ramsay, to the disjunction of the deanery of Res- 
 talrig, and the appropriation of the fruits to the parsonage of Laswade and

 Among the Morton Papers there is a letter, dated 8th October 1592, 
 addressed to the Earl of Morton as patron of the Provostry of Dalkeith, 
 by Mr. William Scott," in favour of his brother-in-law, Thomas Hamilton, 
 then younger of Priesttield. It states that Hamilton, who had been appointed 
 a Lord of Session, was desirous to acquire a " kirk-title" or designation, and 
 the provostry being a benefice of small value, not exceeding 40 merks 
 yearly, he solicited his Lordship to sign the presentation, with the pro- 
 mise, " that in all your reasonabill adois and causis he (the new Judge) salbe 
 your Lordship's gude freind."^ The arrangement of this matter had pro- 
 bably not been completed, as Hamilton, on the 9th November, took his seat 
 on the bench by the title of Drumcairne. He was created Lord Binnino- in 
 1613, and Earl of Melrose in 1G19, afterwards exchanging the latter title 
 for that of Earl of Haddington.^

 In terras of the above Act of Parliament, George Ramsay and Archibald 
 Symson continued respectively parochial ministers of Laswade and Dalkeith. 
 Ramsay's stipend, according to the Books of Assignations, was " the third 
 of the vicarage of Leswaid, with the haill persopage and vicarage of Leswaid 
 and Glencorse." He still retained his title of Dean of Restalrig in 1600, 
 as noticed in the Appendix. i From his confirmed testament^ we learn, 
 that " Mr. George Ramsay, sometime minister of Lessuaid," died on the 
 8th December 1629, leaving a widow, Margaret Murray: their marriage- 
 contract was dated at Dalkeith, 1st September 1608. 
 
 In like manner, Symson's stipend in 1596, was " the haill personage of 
 Dalkeith, £93, Os. 8d., the haill vicarage of Dalkeith, £13, Is. 8d., and the 
 third of the provostry, £8, I7s. 9|d." He was the son of Mr. Andrew Sym- 
 son, one of the early Reformers, and a distinguished scholar, who was 
 successively, master of the grammar school at Perth, and at Dunbar, where 
 he was also minister till 1582. Patrick Symson, minister of Stirling, was 
 another son, of whom five entered the ministry, and all of them being zeal- 
 ous asserters of Presbyterian parity, they rendered themselves obnoxious 
 by their resistance to King James's scheme for introducing Episcopacy 
 into Scotland. Archibald Symson, minister of Dalkeith, author of various 
 works, died there in December 1632. — The succession of the ministers of 
 Dalkeith, continued to the year 1843, is very accurately given in the New 
 Statistical Account of the Parish.^ 
 
 After the preceding notices, it would be unnecessary to say much 
 respecting the old church of St. Nicholas.* We cannot greatly err in 
 stating, that it must have been erected during the life of Sir James Douglas, 
 first Lord of Dalkeith, in the early part of the fifteenth century. In the 
 year 1686, the minister having reported the church to be in a ruinous state, 
 the Presbytery ordered it " to be made wind and water tight." Again, in

 1762, the building of a new steeple and spire for the church was authorized, 
 and the church itself, in 1767, was directed to be repaired. In its old 
 state it was by no means a comfortable place of worship, and required further 
 repairs. A picturesque view of the church, from a drawing by Mr. E. Blore, 
 illustrates the account of Dalkeith, in the Provincial Antiquities, published 
 in 1826. Sir Walter Scott there says, "The church of Dalkeith is a 
 Gothic building of very ordinary workmanship, of which the eastern end is 
 unroofed and ruinous, the walls serving, however, to enclose a burial ground, 
 containing the remarkable monuments of the Grahames, which have been 
 already noticed, from which opens the funeral vault of the family of Buc- 
 cleuch." This vault is the north aisle or chapel attached to the church, 
 as represented in the wood-cut vignette on the next page, from a drawing 
 by Mr. William P. Burton. 
 
 The accompanying ground-plan is reduced from drawings made by 
 David Bryce, Esq., R.S.A., Architect, in 18.54, when the church was at 
 length resolved to be restored. This was accomplished, chiefly at the 
 expense of the Duke of Buccleuch, under Mr. Bryce's directions, the walls 
 having been ' cased,' the interior arrangements altered and rendered more 
 commodious, and a new steeple and spire erected in place of the com- 
 paratively modern square tower and steeple. In this restoration the eastern 
 portion or chancel, which, as not required for public service, had been 
 separated from the church by a partition wall, for at least two centuries, 
 was fortunately allowed to remain untouched in its old ruinous state. The 
 entrance or door-way to the south, with the walls and buttresses, being 
 still very entire, it is most desirable that this portion of the building should 
 not be allowed by neglect to go to destruction, which might be avoided 
 were a light roof thrown over it, the windows opened up and glazed, the 
 weeds and rank grass cleared out, and care especially taken to preserve the 
 old Douglas monument with its recumbent figures, which at present is ex- 
 posed to irreparable injury. By some unaccountable mistake Sir Walter 
 Scott has described this monument as two curious but wasted tombstones.

 The Collegiate church of Rosslyn is situated on an elevated ground 
 called the College Hill, overlooking the North Esk, about seven miles to 
 the south of Edinburgh. It is a very common but popular error, even with 
 writers like Sir Walter Scott, to speak of this charmingly decorated example 
 of ecclesiastical architecture as merely a chapel. It is occasionally so 
 called in old deeds, but we have no indication of any separate chapel of the 
 name, and from the first it was designed as a Collegiate church, dedicated 
 to Matthew the Apostle and Evangelist. The establishment consisted of a 
 provost, six prebendaries, and two singing boys or choristers. According 
 to the varied accounts, it was founded in the year 144G by William St. Clair, 
 Earl of Orkney and Lord of Rosslyn. It is singular that the foundation- 
 charter should not have been recorded, nor has any copj' of it, after a long 
 search, been discovered. There can, however, be no doubt regarding either 
 the name of its founder or the time of its erection. It is sufficient to state, 
 that the continuator of the Scotichronicon, circa 1447, in his list oi Prcefec- 
 turce sive Prcepositurw, says, " Dominus Willelmus de Sancto Claro Conies 
 Orcadias est in fabricando sumptuosam struduram apnd lloslyn." We might 
 conclude from this notice that considerable progress had already been made 
 in the building. 
 
 This powerful nobleman succeeded his father Henry, second Earl of 
 Orkney, in the jear 1420. His first wife was Dame Elizabeth Douglas, 
 formerly Countess of Buchan, and this lady is usually said to have erected 
 the sub-chapel, which was entered by a flight of steps near the High Altar,
 
 xciv ROSSLYN. 
 
 or from the south end of the east aisle. The Earl was Lord Chancellor of 
 Scotland from 1454 to 1458. He had a grant of the Earldom of Caithness, 
 28th August 1455. When King James the Third, in 1469, received the 
 Islands of Orkney and Zetland as the dowry of his Queen, Margaret of 
 Denmark, the Earl in the following year made a surrender of the Earldom 
 of Orkney, which was then annexed to the Crown, and received in exchange 
 certain lands in Fife. He then continued to be styled Earl of Caithness 
 and Lord Saint Clair. For his second wife the Earl of Orkney married Mar- 
 jory, daughter of Alexander Sutherland of Dunbeath, who in his testament, 
 dated at Rosslyn the 5th of November 1456, desired his " body to be 
 gravyt (buried) in the College Kyrk of ane hie and mychti lord Wilyam 
 Earl of Caithness and Orknay, &c., in Eosslyng, ner quhar hymself thinkis 
 to ly." Among his various bequests there were allowances for a priest to 
 perform daily service, and for " the byggyn and reparatioun of the said 
 College Kyrk :" also, "Item, I geve and lef ane of the chalys that Theman 
 has to the College Kyrk of Rosslyng." Three Earls of Orkney and nine 
 Barons of Eosslyn, it is said, were here interred. Some of the traditions 
 connected with 
 
 " that Chapel proud, 
 Where Eosslyn's chiefs uncoffined lie ; 
 Each Baron, for a sable shroud, 
 Sheath'd in his iron panoply," 
 
 may be regarded as poetical fictions. Father Augustine Hay's descriptions 
 of Earl William's sumptuous style of living may truly be called the 
 dreams of a fond imagination, as where he says, the Earl's lady was served 
 by seventy-five gentlewomen, whereof fifty-three were daughters to noble- 
 men, all clothed in velvet and silk, with their chains of gold and other orna- 
 ments; or when coming to Edinburgh, she was attended by two hundred 
 gentlemen on horseback, and entering into her lodgings at the foot of the 
 Black Friars Wynd, she was preceded by eighty lighted torches ; and 
 also, how the Earl himself was royally served at his own table in vessels

 of gold and silver, Lord Dirleton being his master of the household, Lord 
 Borthwick his cup-bearer, and Lord Fleming his carver, their deputies, in 
 absence, being the Lairds of Drunilanrig, Drummelzier, and Calder. Con- 
 sidering the enormous expense of such dresses, and the usual mode of living 
 at that time, either at court, or among the Scottish and English nobility, 
 Arnot, the historian of Edinburgh, remarks, that he had no hesitation in 
 rejecting Father Hay's account " as a most extravagant romance." It is 
 indeed a flight worthy of Sir Thomas Urquhart of Cromarty. 
 
 In the destination of his estates, William Earl of Caithness, and his 
 spouse, Margaret Sutherland Countess of Caithness, granted charters to 
 their son. Sir Oliver Sinclair, knight, of the baronies of Rosslyn, Herbert- 
 schyre, and Pentland, on the 9th September 1476, including the advocation 
 and presentation of the College of Rosslyn and the Chapel of St. Matthew, 
 and of the president and prebendaries of the same ; " De omnibus et 
 singulis terris et barroniis de Rossline, etc. . . . una cum villa de Rosslyne 
 in burgo in barronia cum donatione Ecclesise Collegiatse de Rosslyne ac 
 prsesidis et prebendorum dicti Collegii et Capellae Sancti Mathei in Ross- 
 lyne, etc. super resignatione dicti Willielmi Comitis Cathanla;, tencndis de 
 Rege." These charters were confirmed under the Great Seal, on the 1st 
 November I486.' Similar charters in favour of George Sinclair of Rosslyn 
 are recorded, 5th January 1491-2.2 
 
 On the death of William Earl of Caithness, between 1482 and 1484, or 
 nearly forty years after its foundation, the edifice remained unfinished. His 
 younger son and successor in the barony of Rosslyn carried on the work 
 to some extent. " Sir Oliver Sinclair of Rosslyn," says Father Augustine 
 Hay, " finished the Chapell, as appears by his scutcheon in the vault, whereon 
 there appears only a ragged cross, as also on the left hand of the window 
 of the sacristie under ground ; whereas above the high altar there is a 
 scutcheon quartered Cathness and Roslin, and betwixt the second and 
 third window, from the east to the west, there is a scutcheon quartered

 Cathness, Norway, or some other family," &c.^ But the entire building, 
 like so many others of the same age, was never completed, as the nave was 
 never begun, and of the transepts the east walls only were erected. Be- 
 sides the high altar, there were three others dedicated respectively to St. 
 Matthew, St. Peter, and St. Andrew, and another in the sub-chapel to the 
 Virgin Mary. The endowment originally consisted of the church lands of 
 Pentland, four acres of meadow, with the kips [or jutting-points of land], 
 and eight sowms [horse-loads] of grass. In February 1523-4 Sir William 
 Sinclair of Rosslyn granted other portions of land in the neighbourhood, 
 for erecting dwelling-houses with gardens to the provost and prebendaries. 
 This charter, with its confirmation by King James the Fifth, is printed at 
 page 327. 
 
 The " Genealogie of the Sainteclaires of Eosslyn, including the 
 Chartulary of Rosslyn," forms part of the collections of Father Richard 
 Augustine Hay so often quoted, compiled about the year 1700. The 
 author being related to the family had access to their papers, and tran- 
 scribed many of the old charters ; but after giving that of 1523-4, which 
 is also included in the Great Seal Register, and two deeds of 1571 and 
 1572,2 he says, "I think that the other charters relating to Pentland, 
 and the Chapel of Roslyn, may be found in Comiston's hands, or in 
 Sir Alexander Gibson of Pentland's charter-chest, or els amongst my Lord 
 Sinclar's papers."^ A considerable portion of the charters thus transcribed 
 by Father Hay are in the possession of Professor W. E. Aytoun, who 
 most kindly and liberally gave the use of them, but, for the reason just 
 stated, they unfortunately were less serviceable for the present work than 
 I could have desired ; and inquiries in other quarters for any ecclesiastical 
 deeds have proved unsuccessful. 
 
 The loss of these earlier deeds connected with this Collegiate church 
 has, no doubt, deprived us of much interesting information ; and I have been

 Sir John Dickson is styled Provost of Rosslyn in the charter of con- 
 firmation granted to Sir William Saintclair of Rosslyn, 9th February 1523-4.' 
 On the death of Mr. Alexander Synclar, last Rector of the parish church 
 of Pentland, Dorainus Johannes Dyksonc, presbyter, was presented by Sir 
 William Synclare de Roslyne, knight, 18th May 1521.2 His name occurs 
 in the list of Determinants at St. Andrews in the year 1512 ; but his history 
 is otherwise unknown ; and of his successor, the only incident recorded has 
 placed him in the rank of the early Scottish reformers. This Provost was 
 
 Sir David Huchesone, who received his education at Glasgow, hav- 
 ing been incorporated in that University in October 1520.3 According to 
 the annexed extract from the Privy Seal Register in August 1540, when 
 a gift of his escheated goods was granted to Oliver Sinclair the favourite of 
 King James the Fifth, we learn that Hutcheson had been condemned for 
 heresy by the Spiritual Judge ; but whether it was in absence is not stated, 
 and it is equally uncertain whether, in these troublous times, he had found 
 his way to the Continent as a place of shelter for persons accused as heretics.

 burgh, in company with Sir Johne Sinkler, provest of Rosling, 13th Feb-

 vicarage of Dummany, in the diocese of St. Andrews, 2d January 1547-8.2 
 His name also occurs as Provost in 1551 and 1553,' Sir John Sinclare, 
 provost of Rosling, was presented to the chaplainry called Ross, within the 
 deanery of Gowrie, and diocese of St. Andrews, 7th July 1555.* This 
 notice enables us to fix the period of his decease, as on the 20th September 
 1556 a new presentation was issued, " super capellania Roiss nuncupata, 
 infra diaconatum de Gourie, et diocesim Sanctiandree, nunc vacante per 
 decessum quondam Joannis Sinclare ultimi capellani et possessoris ejusdem."' 
 The name of the next Provost is somewhat uncertain, but we find that 
 
 Sir John Dickson, Provost of Rosslyn, granted a charter of the kirk- 
 lands to Edward Sinclair, son and apparent heir of Sir William Sinclair 
 Baron of Rosslyn, Pentland, and Plerbertshire, dated 28th April 1571. He 
 can scarcely be identified with the person who was Provost in 1523-4. On 
 the other hand 
 
 Sir John Robesoun, Provost, within ten months of the date of the 
 preceding deed, with the consent of the Collegiate church, assembled in 
 chapter, on the 26th February 1571-2, made a similar or still fuller grant of 
 the kirk-lands in favour of the said Edward Sinclair younger of Rosslyn. 
 Both deeds are printed in the " Genealogie of the Saintclaires of Rosslyn."*

 Father Hay adds, " the subscrivcrs can scarcely writt." It is more re- 
 markable from the circumstance, that Robesoun alludes to his having held 
 the Provostship for several years, and that, owing partly to the distracted 
 state of the country, its revenues had been withheld. There may have 
 perhaps been some contending claims between Dickson and Robesoun. In 
 the latter deed, it is stated tliat the Provost and prebendaries, considering 
 the obligations they were under to Sir William Sinclair, had conveyed to 
 his son and heir Edward Sinclair, the kirk-lands of Pentland, &c., for the 
 annual sum of five pounds usual money of Scotland, and also engaged to 
 furnish eighty sheaves of straw from the tithes of the parish church of 
 Pentland, to support the cattle employed in tilling the said lands. — " Sir 
 Johne Robesoun, Provest of Rosling, persone and vicar of Paintland, dwell- 
 and in the town of Dalkeith," died 25th April 1583.i 
 
 After the Reformation, no provision had been made for supplying 
 Rosslyn with either a minister or a reader. It was considered to form 
 part of Pentland, and the parish of Lasswade at that period consisted of 
 three parishes united, Lasswade, Melville, and Pentland with the Provostry 
 of Rosslyn. Nor was it indeed until the year 1835, that Rosslyn was ei-ected 
 into a quoad sacra parish, and disjoined from Lasswade. But without enter- 
 ing upon its ecclesiastical state, it may be noticed, that the Synod of Lo- 
 thian and Tweeddale, 5th May 1590, directed Oliver Sinclair of Rosslyn " to 
 be called before the Presbyterie of Dalkeith, for not permitting Georo-e 
 Lundie (who had recently been appointed minister), to resort for the dis- 
 charge of his oflSce to the kirk of Pentland." At a subsequent meetin"- of 
 the Synod, reference is made to former ordinances, which enjoined the said 
 Presbyterie " to tak ordour with the Lard of Rosllngybr keiping images and 
 uther monume7itis of idolatrie in his kirk," and also " to tak ordour with him 
 for demolishing of the said momimentis." Again, on the 3d April 1593, the 
 Laird of Rosling declared to the Synod,^ " he was nane of the parochinaris

 respect his residence was in the Logan-house tOAver." According to 
 Father Hay both the Chapel and Castle of Rosslyn were pillaged and 
 defaced, by an unruly mob, on the night of the 11th December 1688, 
 
 The Church of Rosslyn and the surrounding scenery on the seques- 
 tered banks of the Esk, with the caves of Gorton and Hawthornden, are so

 The church itself is undergoing a somewhat unnecessary process of resto- 
 ration, at the expense of the Earl of Rosslyn. Among the hundred works 
 containing views of the Castle or the Church of Rosslyn, the following may 
 be specified: Slezer's Theatrura Scotiai, 1093; Father Hay's Genealogie of

 Page xxvi. — Provosts of Trinity College, 1532-1540. — In consequence of 
 having mislaid some of my notes, when preparing this account of the Provosts, the para- 
 graph at the foot of the page, commencing with the words "Some uncertainty exists," 
 &c., should be deleted, and the three following paragraphs substituted : — 
 
 Mr. William Cunningham, the youngest son of William, fourth Earl of Gleucairne,' 
 was educated for the Church, and upon the death of Sir John Dingwell, was preferred to 
 the vacant Provostry of Trinity College, towards the close of 1532. He held the office 
 for nearly seven years. In a deed of William Earl of Glencairne, dated May 1 538, his 
 name occurs as a witness, "William Cunninghame, Provost of the Trinite College, besyd 
 Edinburgh ; " and again in another deed, " Pro Jacobo Naper et Mariota Quhite sua 
 sponsa," in February 1538-'J, he is styled, " Venerabilis vir Willelmus Cunninghame pre- 
 positus Ecclesie CoUegiate Sancte Trinitatis prope Edinburgh."- As there is reason to 
 believe that Cunninghame was promoted to the See of Argyle early in 1539, this will 
 account for his resignation of the Deanery at that time, when Thomas Erskine became 
 his successor ; (See next page) — Keith's account of the Bishops of Argyle is very 
 confused and inaccurate. It may tlierefore be stated that Eobert Montgomery, 
 youngest son of Hugh, third Lord of Montgomery and Earl of Eglinton, was pos- 
 tulated to that See in 1525. At St. Andrews that year his name occurs among the 
 students in Pedagogio, as " Magister Piobertus Montgomery 'postulatus de Argyll." 
 He appears as Bishop of Argj'il (Episcopus Lismorensis) in a decreet-arbitral, 2d May 
 1530.3 Instead of surviving till 1557 or 1558, according to Keith, he was dead per- 
 haps in 1539, but certainly in 154-1, when three natural sons were legitimized, " filiis 
 naturalibus quondam reverendi in Christo patris Koberti Ergadie Episcopi."* Kino- 
 James the Fifth, by the following letter under the Privy Seal, conferred on the Bishoj) 
 of Argyle a very extensive right of i)resentation to vacant benefices in his diocese: — 
 " Ane letter to W^illiam Bischop of Ergyle, gevand and conmiittand to him power to 
 niak, direct, and gif vnder his awne sele and subscriptioun manuale letters of presentatioun 
 of all benefices pertenying to our Souerane Lordis presentatioun within the diocy of Ergilo,

 quhat time and als oft as it sail happin the sammyn to vaik, als lang as he beis Bischop 
 of Ergile, and to gif coUatioun and prouisioun thairuponn without ony vther presentationn 
 of our Souerane Lord or his successouris, &c. At Edinburgh, the xv day of Febrnare, 
 the zeir forsaid [1539-40.]"^ At the Provincial Assembly held at Edinburgh in 1549, 
 among the Bishops present was " Willelmus electus Lismorensis confirmatus." This 
 might seem as if Cunningham had only recently, owing either to want of interest or 
 some contending claim, oljtained his confirmation to the See. While Cunningham was 
 Bishop of Argyll, he obtained, under the Privy Seal, "a letter maid to William Bishop 
 of Ergile, his airis and assignais, off the gift of non-entres, males, fermes, profiQttis, and 
 dewiteis of all and sindrie, the landis and baronyes of Kilmawris, Stewinstonn, 
 Ramferly, Fyndlaystoun, &c., in our Soveranis handis, or his graces predecessouris or 
 Superiouris be resson of non-entres sen the deceis of umquldll Robert Erie of Glencairne, 
 Cutlibert, or William Erlis of Glencarne, or ony of thame, 24th April 1550."- Wil- 
 liam was bishop in January 1554-5 ; but whether in consequence of death or resigna- 
 tion, James Hamilton, a natural brother of James Duke of Chattelherault, had become 
 Bishop of Argyle in 1558. It is pi'obable that this was effected by an arrangement, 
 which secured " to Mr. William Cunningham"^ the pension of the Subdeanry of Glasgow. 
 Mr. James Hammilton, Bishop of Argyle and Sub-Dean of Glasgow, died Gth January 
 1579-80. 
 
 Thomas Ekskine, eldest son of Sir Thomas Erskine, Secretary, obtained a presen- 
 tation to the vacant Provostry of Trinity College, 17th February 1538-9, according to 
 the following notice in the Privy Seal Register: — "Presentatio Thome Erskin super 
 prepositura Ecclesie Collegiate Sancte Trinitatis prope burgum de Edinburgh nunc 
 vacante aut quo tempore eadem vacare contigerit per resignationem cessionem aut 
 dimissionem Magistri Willelmi Cunynghame nunc prepositi et possessoris eiusdem, ad 
 presentationem Domini Regis et collationem Archiepiscopi Sancti Andree spectantem, 
 etc. Apud Linlithgow xvij Februarii Anno Domini I™ v^xx.Kviij. Fer Signaturam."* 
 In the following year however he had resigned the office, apparently on being pro- 
 moted to a wealthier benefice, as Commendator of the Abbey of Dryburgh. (Lib. S. 
 Marie de Dryburgh, p. xxiii.) The deed of collation of his successor as Provost, ex- 
 pressly bears that the office had become vacant by the pure and simple demission " per 
 Thomam Erskyne clericum, ultimum prepositura." 
 
 Mr. Robert Erskine, Rector of Glenbervy, was the next Provost of Trinity College. 
 He was a younger son of John Erskine of Dun. He was educated for the Church at

 the University of St. Andrews, where he was a Determinant in 1524, and a Licentiate 
 in 1526. The original papers from the Dun charter-chest, published by John Stuart, 
 Esq., in the Spalding Miscellany, vol. iv., throw much light on the history of that family. 
 From a precept by John Erskine of Dun for a seisin granted in favour of the Provost 
 and Canons of St. Salvator's College, St. Andrews, dated the 14th of July 1526, Mr. Ro- 
 bert Erskine appears as Eector of Glenbervy.* The deed of collation by the Abbots of 
 Cambuskenneth and Kinloss of Mr. Robert Erskyn, Rector of Glenbcrv}', to the Provostry 
 of the Collegiate Church of the Holy Trinity, near Edinburgh, bears the date 13th Sep- 
 tember 1539, and also the deed of institution by Mr. John Logan, Deau of the said 
 church.- Logan continued to hold the office of Dean till after the Reformation ; but 
 Erskine, probably in consequence of his further promotion, within a few months had 
 resigned his Provostry, as stated at p. xxvii. Mr. Robert Erskyn appears subsequently as 
 Rector of Glenbervy and Dean of Aberdeen ;^ and the Dean, apparently as uncle of the 
 Laird of Dun, signs a contract, 23d April 1552.^ In the same year he obtains collation 
 of the cauoury and rectory of Arbnthuot, called a Prebend of the Collegiate Church or 
 Chapel Royal of the Kirkheugh (canonicatus et rectoria de Arbuthnot nuncupata pre- 
 benda Ecclesie collegiate sive capelle Regie beate Marie de Rupe props et extra civitatem 
 Sancti Andree).^ As Dean of Aberdeen his name occurs on the 5th January 1558-9.'' 
 Mr. Robert Erskine, Dean of Aberdeen and Rector of Arbuthnot was alive in 1561. ■

 Page xxxvi, line 1, add, — An annual pension of £100, in the minority of King 
 James the Fifth, was granted to Mng. Richard Bothwell in utroque jure Doctor, for his 
 good and gratuitous services to us and our said tutor, John Duke of Albany, 20th 
 November 1520. 
 
 Page xxxvii. — Alexander Forrest was educated at St. Andrews, where he took 
 his Master's degree in 1534. As the names Forrest, Forres, and Forret were sometimes 
 used indiscriminately, we may identify him with Mr. Alexander Forret, Provost of Foulis, 
 who sat in the Provincial Council at Edinburgh in 1549. In deeds connected with the 
 New Foundation of St. Mary's College, St. Andrews, the name occurs of Mag. Alexander 
 Forres, prepositus de Foulis, 26th June 1550, and of Mag. Alexander Forrest, prepo- 
 situs Ecclesie beate Marie de Campis oppidi Ediuburgensis, 25th February 1553-4. In 
 a contemporary MS. we find under the apparent date 20th March 1555, at Piome. 
 ' Item, apointed with ]\I. Johnne Row for the Provostrie of the Kirk [ofj Field, and caus 
 M. Alexander Forres send his mandat to ratify the xx lib. pensioun reservit to the said 
 Mr. Johnne."— (Makkison's MS. p. 250, quoted in M'Crie's Life of Knox, vol. ii. p. 291.) 
 I presume the meaning is, that Row had been appointed to negotiate at the Com-t of 
 Rome for Forrest, not that he himself had ever been Provost. 
 
 Page xxxvii. — The name of Adam Pennycuik occurs in the Registers as a 
 student in the University of St. Andrews iu 1543, and he probably was the future Provost 
 of 111 e Kirk of Field. 
 
 The names of some of the Chaplains or Prebendaries in the Kirk of Field, which 
 occur in various deeds, may be briefly noticed. The deeds referred to are chieHy pre- 
 served in old Edinburgh and Canongate Protocol books, but they were not of sufficient 
 uuportance to be included in the present volume.

 ibunded by Thomas Russell, he, with consent of the Provost, bailies, &c., of Edinburgh, 
 pairons of the same, resigned the house, grammar school, and garden in the vennel of

 be vacant by the resignation of Mr. William Gibsone, in exchange for the vicarage of

 In the same Register (fol. 6) there is a long letter, in Latin, of the same date, ad- 
 dressed to the Pope, soliciting his Holiness to grant his authority for completing the 
 proposed arrangements. It is uncertain whether the ap2)lication was successful ; we 
 know at least that Sinclair not only retained the title and continued to act as Dean, but 
 also received the fruits of the benefice till the year of his death in 1566. His promotion 
 to the See of Ross a few months previously may perhaps have led to his resignation, 
 but it was no doubt in consequence of the above-mentioned negotiation that Mr. James 
 Lauder at length became bis uncle's successor as Dean of Restalrig. See p. liii.

 " When the Chancellor Morton," says Chalmers, " obtained from Queen Mary, in 
 1564, a confirmation of his estates, it included the advowson of the College and preben- 
 daries of the Collegiate Church of Dalkeith, with its pertinents. The specification of 
 such matters to such a man shows clearly tliat there was then no parish of Dalkeith." — 
 Caledonia, vol. iii. p. 799- The terms of the above deed clearly proves the reverse. 
 The Act referred to, dated 17th October 1564, is contained in the Acts of Parliament, 
 vol. ii. p. 562. 
 
 In the year 1642, the estates of Dalkeith, with the patronage of the Church, were 
 purchased of the Earl of Morton by Francis Earl of Buccleuch. 
 
 BORTIIWICK. 
 
 In former times the name of Borthwick was Locherwart, or Lochquhorwart, pro- 
 nounced Loch Wharret, when annexed by the Chancellor Lord Creychton to his newly 
 erected Collegiate Church (see p. Ixxiii.) After the Reformation, iu 1574, &c., Borthwick
 
 cxx APPENDIX. 
 
 was united to and under the jurisdiction of the minister of Heriot and Stow, with a reader, 
 James Gibson, who had the manse and glebe, and a stipend of £20. By a charter, 4th 
 April 1596, King James the Sixth disjoined from the Collegiate Kirk of Creichton the 
 prebends of Arnetstone (now Arniston), Myddelton, and Vogrie, and two clerks ; and 
 these, with the whole vicarage of Borthwick, were erected into a separate benefice, as the 
 Parish Kirk of Borthwick. This arrangement was ratified by Parliament, llth July 
 1606.^ But a few years later, 23d October 1612, Sir James Duudas of Arni.ston, Knight, 
 having represented to Parliament that the Kirk of Borthwick was ruinous, for the pur- 
 pose of " uphalding it," it was enacted, that the part of it called the Revestrie, should 
 be assigned to him for a family burial-place in all time coming, in consideration of his 
 furnishing the expenses required for repairing the Church.^ The Church itself was 
 destroyed by an accidental fire in May 1775, but the walls were allowed to remain, in- 
 stead of the customary practice of using the old stones for constructing some bam-like 
 meeting-house, which almost inevitably replaced the old ornamented Gothic church that 
 harmonized so well with the surrounding scenery. This old ruin is chiefly remarkable 
 for the aisle which preserves the sculptured figures of its founder, as is supposed, Wil- 
 liam de Borthwick, and of his lady, a Douglas. There is an engraving of this monu- 
 ment, from a drawing by E. Blore, in the Provincial Antiquities. 
 
 Mr. Adam Colt, minister, was presented " to the benefice and parsonage of the 
 parish kirk of Borthwick, newly erected." 12th May 1596. 
 
 MELVILLE. 
 
 The name of " Thomas de Kirkmichel, rector parochialis ecclesie de Malvil Sancti 
 Andree diocesis, bacallarius in decretis," appears in a Papal letter in his favour to secure 
 for him the vacant benefice of the parish church of Kellis in Galloway, 4th Kal. Nov. 
 1463. Mr. Archibald Hay, Eector of the Parish Church of Mailuille, was inducted in 
 November 1536. He was Rector here, llth June 1546. (Register of Dunfermline, 
 pp. 386, 394.) 
 
 LASSWADE. 
 
 The Church of Lasswade in the old Taxatio was rated at ninety marks. It became 
 a mensal church of the Bishopric of St. Andrews, in the twelfth century, forming a 
 prebend of St. Salvator's church, but was annexed to the Collegiate church of Eestalrig 
 in the reign of King James the Third. Mr. Walter Lyndsay, appeai-s in register of the

 Lasswade, 7th March 1501-2. Mag. Willelmus Nudry was Vicar of Lesswade, 16th 
 November 1529. 
 
 After the Reformation in the parochial divisions and arrangements, various changes 
 were made in the appointment of ministers and readers in this district, some of which 
 have already been specified. From its connexion with Restalrig and Dalkeith, it may 
 be added, that the old church of Lasswade having become unfit for public worship, the 
 present large and commodious edifice was erected in the year 1793. The minister of the 
 parish, in the Statistical Account, says, with some complacency, " The church now erecting, 
 in point of accommodation and magnificence of structure, will far exceed any modern 
 country church in Scotland ;" and his successor, in the New Statistical Account, copjoins 
 the new church, the manse, and the ruins of the old church, as " the three objects forming 
 a group remarkable for its beauty." Passing over " the magnificence of structure" of 
 the church, we are more concerned with the ruins of the old building (apparently a 
 structure of the end of the fourteenth century), portions of wliich were fortunately allowed 
 to remain, and are partly used for private burial vaults. A picturesque view of the 
 church from the south bank of the Esk, from a sketcli by Mr. Clerk of Eldin, in 1776, 
 before it was concealed by houses on the opposite bank, will be found among "The 
 Eldin Etchings," Plate xlvii. The accompanying wood-cut is reduced from a charming 
 drawing made a few years ago by Mr. James Drummond, R.S.A.
