INTRODUCTION.
^HIS, the second volume of the Calendar of Documents relating
-^ to Scotland, preserved among the Public Records of Eng-
land, embraces the entire reign of Edward I., — a period full of
events of great importance in the history of the two countries, —
beginning with the last years of the peaceful and beneficent
reign of Alexander III., and ending while the two nations were
engaged, one for conquest and the other for independence, in the
arduous struggle which, after many vicissitudes, was to end
in firmly seating Robert Bruce on the vacant throne of his
ancestors.
The reign of Edward L, so far as it relates to Scotland, may
be divided into six periods — the last thirteen years of the reign
of Alexander III., five of the nominal reign of Margaret of
Norway, the two years' Interregnum during the Competition
for the Crown, John Balliol's disastrous four years' reign,
the second Interregnum of ten years, and lastly, the short
period from the coronation of Robert Bruce till the death of
Edward I.
Beginning then with Alexander III., we shaU find that
the documents calendared fully bear out the character assigned
to him by Lord Hailes : — ' His conduct towards the neighbouring
' kingdom was uniformly candid and wise. He maintained that
' amity with England \'vhich interest as weU as relation to its
* sovereigns required ; yet he never submitted to any concessions

1272-75. ' wMcli might injure the independency of the kingdom and
Edward I. ' Church of Scotland.'
(Alex. IIL)
The first document ^ is a remonstrance by him as to encroach-
ments on his rights in his Cumberland manors, addressed to
Eleanor Queen of Henry III., who is called 'the late,' some
rumour of his death having doubtless reached Scotland, though
that event did not occur till 16th November, nearly seven months
after the date of the letter, 22nd April 1272. As \vdll be noticed
from many other documents,^ the privileges of the Kings of
Scotland in these and their Tynedale possessions were grudgingly
admitted, and closely watched by their brother sovereigns. On
27th August 1274, Edward I. issued a writ ^ commanding 17 5l.
to be paid to his royal brother-in-law from the issues of Durham,
for the stated expenses of 100s. daily, allowed of old to the
Scottish kings coming to the English Court ; in this instance the
cost of his attending the coronation at Westminster. Soon after,
in Michaelmas Term^ the same year, Edward ordered the Barons
of Exchequer to ascertain what balance was due to Alexander of
his consort Queen Margaret's dower of 5000?., that it might be
settled. There is nothing to show, however, that it was ever paid.^
After above twenty-four years of married life, Queen Margaret
died at the comparatively early age of thirty-five on 26th February
1274-75.^ Her grace and beauty are still the subjects of Scottish
tradition. Only three weeks before her death she had obtained
from her brother a special favour for Elizabeth de Quincy
Countess of Buchan, who was in an interesting situation, releasing
her from personal attendance before him to receive her share of
her father's heritage.^ This loss made no change in the friendly
relations between the brothers-in-law. Alexander continued to
maintain his own public rights, as well as those of his subjects.
He was in the custom of making journeys through his kingdom
to see that justice was administered ; and thus we find him, from
^ No. 1. pounds, and the balance due two years before

suspicion of piracy ; from Stirling, on 24th October thereafter, ^ ®^' ''
informing Edward I., in answer to the latter's complaint regarding
pirates,^ that they would be judged according to Scottish laws ;
from Eoxburgh, on 14th November after,^ asking the English
King's favour in the business of Alexander the Steward, — whose
case (rather a complicated one) is stated by himself to Edward I.
in singular terms,* ending with a familiar proverb ; and lastly,
from Brechin, 29th December,^ as to an aid demanded by Edward
within Tynedale, on which the Scottish King says he must advise
with his magnates. A document without date, evidently of the
same year,^ sums up his demands, with Edward's replies. His
mother, Mary de Coucy the Queen Dowager, appears about this
time, on one occasion on pilgrimage to Canterbury (24th February
1275-76)/ at another, crossing seas^ (26th December 1276).
The next year or two saw much correspondence between the
Sovereigns on the subject of Scottish encroachments on the
March between their kingdoms at Tweedmouth near Berwick,®
of which the Bishop of Durham had complained as an infringe-
ment on his liberty of Norhamschyre. Lord Hailes remarks^*' that
the subject of these solemn negotiations was probably nothing
more than a salmon fishery. It may, however, have been some
matter of greater moment. Berwick-on-Tweed was then a place
of great commerce. The Chronicle of Lanercost^^ calls it a second
Alexandria; its merchants and their extensive transactions
appear often in the present Calendar ; and few who see it now
can realise what it must have been in the time of Alexander IIL,
when many of the greatest ecclesiastics and nobles of Scotland
had houses within its walls.
The question of the homage to be rendered by the King of
Scotland for the lands and tenements which he held in England
forms the next subject of discussion between him and Edward,
and after preliminary protests and safe conducts had been

Edward I. the King of Scotland rendered homage, in respect of these lands,
'^ at Westminster on 29th September 1278, one of his greatest
nobles, Robert Bruce Earl of Carrick, son of the future Com-
petitor, swearing fealty on his behalf.^ An instrument on the
Patent EoUs, dated on 17th of October, declaring that the King
of Scotland offered homage at Tewkesbury the day before, but
as Edward had not his Council, he deferred it to London, is
somewhat inexplicable. The date is undoubted, as the original
is extant as well as the enrolment.^
The Assize Roll of Alexander's justices errant in Tynedale in
1279,* commonly called the ' Iter of Werk,' is a unique example
of such a document under the reisfn of a Scottish kinor. From
the references to earlier rolls of Tynedale in the title deeds of
the ancient family of Swinburne of Capheaton,^ there must have
been others ; but all have disappeared with those of Scotland
proper. Its chief value is perhaps genealogical, but it also affords
evidence of the close similarity of the laws of the two countries
at that date.
An inquisition, unfortunately much dilapidated,^ reveals a
glimpse of the singular law of combat on the Marches called
* Handwarcelle,' whereby the ownership of stolen goods (in this
instance a mare) was decided, it does not appear whether by the
principals alone or champions in their behalf.
Cognate to this March question is the singular privilege
noticed in the inquisition on the death of Baldewin Wake, baron
of Lydel,^ whereby the men of Roceland and Salom in Scotland
had free pasture and right of fowling in the fields of Arthuret in
Cumberland; a relic possibly of the days when Cumbria and
Strathclyde were under one ruler.
During the period we have been traversing, we see little of
the royal children of Scotland. A few of their letters to Edward I.,
however, are still extant. In the first of these,^ Prince Alexander,

terms to his ' most hearty uncle,' asking his favour for Sir Ingram Edward i.
de Umfi'aville. In another,^ perhaps a year or two later, he ^^^^' ^^^'^
writes expressing equal interest in his uncle's family. In both of
these letters he says that, having no seal of his own, he uses
that of his guardian, Sir William de St Clair. He appears to
have successfully interceded about this time for Nicholas de Veteri-
pont of Tynedale.- The next event in his life was his marriage
to the daughter of Guy Count of Flanders, who had a safe con-
duct for her passage through England on 11th August 1282,^
the marriage taking place doubtless soon after. The Prince is
said to have died at Cupar in Fife, on 28th Januar}^ 1283-84,^
shortly after which date the Count sent a suitable escort to
conduct his widowed daughter back to her own country.^
Only one letter of his sister, Margaret Queen of Norway,
appears.^ She ^Tites to her uncle in most affectionate terms, and,
like her brother ha\"ing no seal, uses that of her ' chamberere,'
Dame Lucy de Hessewelle. She married, a year earlier than her
brother, Eric King of Norway ;" and though only in her twenty-
first year, her husband was seven jeais her junior.^ She pre-
ceded her brother to the grave,^ leaving an only child Margaret,
who, on 5th February, immediately after her uncle's death, was
acknowledged by the magnates as heiress of Scotland, in default
of issue of her grandfather or his son.^*'
Even at this long interval of time, few wiQ read the letter
written by the bereaved King to Edward I., on 20th April 1 284,^^
with its expressions of his overwhelming sorrow and grateful
thanks for his brother-in-law's sympathy, without a touch of
human feeling. Though lq early middle age, having been bom
in 1241, he had lost wife and ckLlcben, and being the only son
of an only son was without a near male relative to succeed him.

The Scottish King, with prudent foresight, married again,
his second consort being Joleta daughter of Eobert (IV.) Count
of Dreux, the head of a princely house, whose ancestor was
Eobert called ' the Great,' third son of Louis le Gros King of
France.
On 19th August 1285,^ a safe conduct issues from the
English Chancery for herself and her brother John, to go
through England to Scotland, and (ominously as it proved) to
return within a year.
Long before that year was out the marriage was dissolved^
by Alexander's melancholy death on the clijSs between Burnt-
island and Kinghorn in Fifeshire, where he was thrown from
his horse over a precipice (still called the King's Craig) and
killed on the spot, on 19th March 1285-86.
With him expired the direct line of the Scoto-Pictish
kings, traceable (with one break, the daughter of Malcolm II.)
in the male line from Kenneth MacAlpine in the ninth
century.^ More than this, the kingdom, which had attained
under the wise reigns of his father and himself a high degree
of prosperity, was ere long to experience the disastrous effects
of civil disorders, retarding its progress for generations.
It will be proper, before going farther, to take notice
of the evidences of trade during his reign, for we shall find
that these are few and far between during the turmoil of the
War of Independence. On 10th November 1273, three
merchants of Aberdeen who had freighted a vessel from that
port to St Omer with wool, timber, and hides, and had been
plundered by Englishmen off Yarmouth and the Kentish Coast,

were ordered to have restitution.^ Tliey had not been satisfied, 1274-86.
however, by 28th August 1274, when the constable of the Ed^^I^i.
Cinque Ports is ordered to see to it instantly.- A trader of ^'^^^' ^^^'^
the Lord of Argyll, touching at Bristol and arrested on suspicion
of piracy, was released in 1275, through the intervention of
the Scottish King.^ Philip de Ridale, a great Berwick merchant,
and another, whose vessel, bound for Dieppe with wool, &c., had
been plundered by a pretended salvor ofi" the coast of Lindseye,
were ordered redress on 11th May 1276.* In August of the
same year we find a landowner of the latter district, sending to
buy horses at Stirling fair.'' In 1278-79, a London trader to
Scotland has a protection for a year.^
The extensive intercourse between Scotland and the port
of Bordeaux is shewn by a long process, which must have
begun some years before Alexander's death, not ending till the
reign of John Balliol, whereby a Gascon merchant, John
Mazun (or Massun), claimed a large sum^ for wines, &c., supplied
to the Court of Scotland, and asserted that, besides delaying
payment till his credit at home was destroyed, the Scots cheated
and imprisoned him. The aff'air involved the two Kings in cor-
respondence in 1284,^ besides petitions from the mayor of Bor-
deaux,^ and the creditor,^'* then in a Scottish prison. He seems to
have threatened to annoy Scotsmen in his own country, for, on
27th March 1286, he gives security to abstain from so doing," and
has a safe conduct to go with an oflicial to Scotland to recover. ^^
In 1288 the executors of Alexander III. complained that he was
arresting Scotsmen's goods in England for his debt.^^ Lengthy
proceedings, apparently with no result, took place before
commissioners who sat at Carham on the March, in February
1288-89.^* His case slept during the Interregnum, but, on

Jolm Ealliol.) Tninster to the Gascon's demand. The executors of the late
King explained^ how the final payment would have been made
but for the creditor's own conduct, and with this the afi"air
disappears from record.
In a very curious letter without date,^ in old Castilian, a
Spanish shipmaster relates to the Scottish King the misfortunes
of his vessel, driven far out of her course on the Western
Islands, and the treacherous conduct of an island chief, who
may perhaps be identified with ' Alan MacEotheryk,' whose son
appears on the Ragman Roll. The particulars of the cargo, given
in Norman French, are interesting.*
We may now pass lightly over the next three periods — the
reign of Margaret of Norway, the Interregnum during the Com-
petition, and the reign of John Balliol.^
From the grave of their lamented Sovereign at Dunfermline,
the magnates of Scotland who had assisted at his obsequies,
headed by the Bishops of St Andrews and Glasgow, addressed
the King of England on the 29th March 1286,^ consulting him
as the nearest in blood to their infant Queen.

Six Guardians were shortly after (llth April) appointed by 1286-90.
the convention at Scone, in name of the infant, including these Edward I.
two bishops,^ and under their government the affairs of the ^^NoSr*{^^
kingdom were conducted on the whole much as during the late
reign. The King of England, naturally enough, was desirous to
embrace the opportunity of uniting the two realms by the marriage
of his son and grand-niece, and with this object many negotia-
tions took place between his envoys and those of Norway and
Scotland during the year 1289,^ ending with the important
Treaty of Salisbury on 6th November,^ and the Papal bull of
Nicholas IV. permitting the intended marriage.'* He had
procured an earlier bull from the late Pope, Honorius IV. (on
27th May 1286),^ granting a general dispensation for all his
children to marry within the forbidden degrees. To smooth
proceedings, he had also lent the King of Norway 2000 marks
in 1286,^ and his energetic envoy, the Bishop of Durham (pro-
bably not long after that date) granted the considerable sum of
400Z. in annuities to Norwegians of rank, till the Queen attained
the age of 15.^ He wrote urgently to Eric^ on 17th April 1290,
to hasten the arrival of his daughter in England, a request which
had been already made to Eric by the Guardians on 17th March."
On that day they had signified their consent to the marriage
under their common seal,^° Edward having bound himself to them
in a penalty of 3000 marks, unless their Queen arrived by All
Saints' day.^^ The important marriage treaty at Brigham on the
Tweed next followed,between the English Ambassadors and the
magnates and community of Scotland, duly ratified by Edward

the land that she had died before touching the shores of her

reported it to Edward L, and urged him to take steps to prevent

tain persons,^ the Lord of Annandale had unexpectedly come with
a formidable retinue to Perth.
In the Competition for the Crown, to which we now direct
our attention, Rymer's Foedera and Sir Francis Palgrave supply
the bulk of the documentary evidence, printed at great length.
The Foedera embodies the entire proceedings from the time when
Edward I. met the clergy and nobles of Scotland at Norham in
May 1291, to his final decision in November 1292, adjudging the
Crown to Balliol. This famous document, known as the Great
Roll of Scotland, was drawn up by Master John de Cadamo (or
of Caen), an apostolic notary, in a narrative form, embodying the
successive instruments, which were written from day to day, as
the business proceeded, by another official, Master Andrew de
Tang, clerk of the Diocese of York. As these last sometimes
give expressions and facts differing from the Great Roll, the
narrative in this Calendar has been taken from them, with great
brevity of course, and the differences pointed out.

have been stated here with the utmost succinctness. In Mr
Stevenson's volumes we have the instruments connected with
the administration of the kingdom of Scotland by the four sur-
viving Guardians, the Bishops of St Andrews and Glasgow, the
elder Com}^!, and James the Steward — to whom Edward had
added a fifth, Brian fitz Alan of Bedale — all derivino- their
powers ex terminis from him in his assumed capacity of over-
lord,^
The extracts from the Chronicles were read at the first meet-
ing on 10th May.'^ They contain a curious mixture of historical
facts and monkish legends. One, that of Chester,^ is not in
Palgrave, and has an interesting account of the circumstances
attending the death of St Margaret Queen of Malcolm Canmore.
That following it, of Faversham,® gives some particulars which,
from the state of the document, escaped the acute eye of Pal-
grave— Arthur's victories at Duglas water over Colgrim and the
Saxons and Scots, and the Scots and Picts besiesfinof his sick

nephew Hoel in the city of Alcluyd, when they fled to the isles
of Lennox — and over Gilla . . . nurias, an Irish king, and his bar-
barians. That of Carlisle^ seems most strictly historical of all.
The undated preliminary appeal to King Edward by the seven
Earls of Scotland,^ will be remarked as being distinctly \M:itten
in the interest of the Lord of Annandale, from whom, in Pal-
grave's opinion, the very subservient letter to the King® probably
emanated. Balliol has been singled out by common fame as
more obsequious than the others, which pliancy is said to have
gained him the Crown. But those who read the various instru-

num )°' Besides the homages made to Edward as overlord on Holy-
well Haugh, on 13th June 1291/ by the Guardians and twenty-
seven other Earls and Barons of Scotland, it was ordered by the
Guardians that the same submission should be made by all,
clerical and lay, who would have been bound to make it to a living
King of Scotland.^ This was done, apparently to a limited ex-
tent, for in the existing document,^ there are little more than
two hundred names, made up of three bishops (Dunblane, Aber-
deen, and Ross), twelve abbots and priors, the heads of the two
military orders, three prioresses, and Maria Queen of Man, two
earls (Stratherne and Ross), thirty-six barons and knights, eighty-
two burgesses of Berwick with the mayor, and seventy of Perth.
Among the claims of the Competitors,* there is a remarkable
variation in that of John Comyn. In the Great Roll, he traced
his descent from Betlioc, daughter and heir of Dovenald, son of
Duncan, son of Crinan, i.e., Donald Bane King of Scotland,
younger brother of Malcolm Canmore. In the original instru-
ment here calendared, he traces it from Hextildis, daughter and
heir of Gothrik, son and heir of the above Donald. The former
of these genealogies is supported by a charter of Henry III.
in 1261,® confirming to John Cumyn's father the extensive Tyne-
dale lands which had been derived from Hextildis, his ancestress,
wife of Richard Cumyn, and styled daughter of Huctred son
of Waldef.^ This Huctred or Uctred (the same as Gothrik)
appears as a great landowner in Northumberland in the Pipe Roll
of Henry I.^ It does not seem to be known who he was, but as
his father, Waldef or Walleof, must have been a contemporary of
Donald Bane, the royal descent of Comyn must have been through
the latter's daughter Bethoc, the mfe of Huctred.

the proceedings which ended in the decision by the King of

January 1292-93,^ of all obligations undertaken by the latter
to him or his people while Scotland was in his hands. All
these were carefully deposited at Westminster on the 16th of the
same month ,^ with a notarial protest by the King of England,
reserving his full right to hear appeals from Scotland.
The new King soon learned that this was to be a very
operative clause. In April he writes to his overlord, deprecating
being summoned on the justice eyre in Yorkshire ; ® and though
Edward freed him of the large sum of 3000/., due for the relief
of his late mother's English lands, permitting the balance of less
than 300?. to be paid by easy instalments,^ and made other conces-
sions of a like nature, an instrument was taken as to his refusal
of justice to a burgess of Berwick and Macduff of Fife,^ and he
was summoned in person to answer at Westminster to the claim
of the persevering Gascon merchant, John Masson, already
noticed.^ Possibly to propitiate a powerful friend, we find him
on 20th June 1294, giving the Bishop of Durham and his
successors in the see, a considerable yearly revenue and church
patronage in Tynedale, and a grant for Life of the entire Cumber-
land manors belonging to the Scottish Crown. ^°
The Berwick burgesses made great complaints of English
interference with their shipping,^^ which was supported by a letter
from their King to Edward, 2nd July 1294.^^ Edward being on
the point of war with France, summoned Balliol and eighteen of
his magnates to join him WT.th their forces, in London on 1st

followed, however, by the seizure of Balliol's and all other
Scotsmen's lands in England, on 16th October,^ a step, doubtless,
fully justified in Edward's eyes, by the subsequent discovery of
the alliance between Balliol and Philip, dated 23rd of same
month,* and by the letter from Balliol, at length goaded beyond
endurance (without date, but evidently at the same period),^ in
which he recites the injuries sustained by himself and his sub-
jects, and renounces his allegiance, with the homage extorted
by violence. The records contain but slight allusion® to the
Scottish invasion of Cumberland by Balliol's army on 26th
March 1296, under the Earl of Buclian, their repulse at Carlisle
on the 28th, and their inroad into Northumberland on 8th April,
when Hexham and Corbridge were burned and the country
wasted.^ Early in February previous, Edward had summoned
his forces to meet him at Newcastle-on-Tyne, and was on his
way to Scotland,^ apparently reaching the borders by the end of
that or beginning of next month. ^ Here he drew from the
obscurity (j^erhaps the prison), where he had remained for
upwards of fifty years, Thomas, the bastard son of Alan of
Galloway, who had once been desired as their lord by the men
of Galloway,^" rather than that their country should be parcelled
out among the daughters of Alan. It is likely he had been kept
by Balliol and his father, as a formidable rival, in honourable
captivity, and Edward may have designed restoring him to his
father's possessions, or the Balliol part of these, as he granted
the Galwegians their old liberties at Thomas's instance, and
likewise sent him to Carlisle castle to be near his country." We
hear no more of him, and probably he did not long survive, for
he must have been a man of great age. Another circumstance of
some interest may also be here adverted to. The King of

England, who had reached ' Werk ' (which the editor takes to be 1296.
Werk on Tweed) by the 17th March or sooner, must, to all Ed^i.
appearance, have there received the homages rendered on the B/mon
14th of March by ninety Scottish landowners, headed by the
Earl of Lennox.^ The year is not given, but as we find among
them the name of Patrick de Graham, who fell at Dunbar on
the 28th April 1296, we conclude that it must have been at this
time. These persons probably foresaw the inevitable issue of the
contest, and with one or two exceptions, none of their names
occur in the list of the 130 prisoners taken at Dunbar and sent
to Enghsh prisons.^ With the exception 'of this last-mentioned
document, and several others of the same tenor, ^ a report on the
damage done by the English army, which crossed the Tweed at
Coldstream on 28th March, ^ and an order by the King at Ber-
wick, on 2nd April, that Sir Eobert Clifford keep the Marches
with 140 men-at-arms and 500 foot,^ we have no information
here regarding the capture of Berwick and the battle of Dunbar.
These must be learned from the chroniclers of the time, who
relate the story mth various degrees of accuracy. A Placita
roll of the army, which shows the strict discipline maintained,^
gives, in conjunction wdth the numerous homage deeds which
now begin to appear, a pretty full itinerary of Edward I. in
Scotland, from 21st March to 28th August 1296. These
homage deeds, of which about seventy originals are still in exist-
ence, more or less decayed, occasionally having the seal attached,
begin with that of James the Steward of Scotland " at Koxburgh
castle, on 13th May, followed by that of his brother John, two
days after.® On referring to these and the others, in the text
of Palgrave, it will be found that those who had rebelled, or were
specially connected with Balliol, are made to abjure any allegi-
ance to him; the others simply swear fealty to Edward as
King of England.

Baldred Bisset, the Scottish envoy at Rome, avers this to have
been a forgery, there is no doubt of the genuineness of another
instrument^ by which, on the 7th of the same month, Balliol, in
the churchyard of Stracathro in Forfarshire, renounced his treaty
with Philip, and three days later, in Brechin castle, resigned his
realm, people, and royal seal, to the Bishop of Durham on behalf
of Edward.* For ten years the unhappy realm was without a
king ; though the successive Eegents, Wallace, Comyn, and
others, professed to hold office on behalf of King John, in their
correspondence with the French King.
The document ^ discovered under the title ' Gardroba. Inven-
' toria jocalium de diversis annis r. r. Edw.,' is of no little value,
as being, so far as the editor recollects, the only direct evidence
on record that, in addition to a number of jewels, relics, &c.,
found in Edinburgh castle, a great coffer and two small coffers,
with divers writings and memoranda found there, were, on I7th
September 1296, transferred from Berwick-on-Tweed to London,
and deposited in the Warcbobe at Westminster. It may be
fairly surmised that these comprised many, if not all, of the old
Records of Scotland. The incident forms an appropriate close
to the reign of Balliol.
In touching on the documents during this second Inter-
regnum, probably the best known by name at least, is the cele-
brated Ragman Roll,^ an invaluable record of the landowners of
Scotland at a time for which no other data of equal value exist.
There are three copies of it,'' from one of which (No. 88) Prynne
printed copious extracts, not always correctly. The Banna-

already referred to.^ Edward I.
In this document there are recorded, first, the several homages ^ num.)^"
by the bishops, barons, and chief men of Scotland, made during
King Edward's northern progress after Dunbar ; and secondly,
the more universal homages made at the Parliament of
Berwick-on-Tweed on 28th August the same year, when all
these persons took the oaths again, with the addition of the
dignified churchmen, the earls, barons, knights, burgesses, and
whole community of Scotland. From the extreme north of
Scotland to the Rhinns of Galloway in the south, and from
the Western Isles to the Lothians, the landowners of Scotland,
great and small, were summoned. There are, allowing for
duplicates, nearly two thousand names enrolled ; and, as the
counties to which they belonged are generally referred to with
much care, it is sometimes possible, notwithstanding the anti-
quated forms under which they appear, to identify the names
with those of still existing places or families. It would occupy
too much space to consider it from all its points of view ; but it
may be observed that some names are repeated more than once,
and others omitted. Notably among these last are the Bishops
of St Andrews and Dunkeld, and Sir John de Soulis, three of the
four Commissioners who negotiated the treaty between Balliol
and Philip of France.^ Bishop Fraser probably felt that this was
too serious an ofience to be lightly passed over by Edward, and
remained in France, where he died next year.^ Nor are the
Bishops of Moray, Brechin, or Dunblane to be found.* The name
of Simon Fraser will be looked for in vain, though he swore
fealty at a later date, 13th October, the same year,^ and, on 28th
May 1297, came under a very solemn oath, under the guarantee
of his cousin. Sir Richard Fraser, in Edward's own presence at

Eobert de Keith, too, is not to be found, who, we shortly
learn,^ was accounted so dangerous a foe, that Edward sent him
from Carlisle castle far into the interior of England ; and yet
afterwards Keith became and remained one of his firmest
adherents. Such anomalies meet the reader at every step
through these records. One bright exception is the patriot
Wallace. Though there are three Waleyses of Ayrshire on the
Eoll, his name is not there, and there can be no doubt of the
fact that, as he said on his trial, he was never a liegeman of
England.
Thus, though this Eoll is not printed for the first time, there
is much to be found in it by those who study it in conjunction
with other documents in the Calendar. In addition it may also
be here pointed out, that, as all the homage seals now remaining
in the Chapter House are for the first time systematically
described in their actual state, whether still on the deeds or
detached, and are often grouped together by the original strings,
this affords a new means of identifying, with more or less
accuracy, probably not far from one-third of the parties to the
. original homages. This will be dealt with a little more fully
as we proceed.
The tranquillity of the country did not last long. The mere
fact that besides the three high offices of Governor, Treasurer,
and Justiciar, many others were filled by Englishmen, could not
fail to be irritating to an independent people. The writ of 31st
January 1296-97,^ ordering the Governor to forbid anyone to
leave the kingdom, points at disturbances, possibly those in
which Wallace first came under the notice of the authorities ;
and the messages from the King of England to nearly sixty
Scottish earls and barons, both north and south of Perth, on

entrusted to Henry de Percy and Eobert de Clifford, about June
of that year,^ and his thanks to several Galloway magnates for
their good offices about the same time.^ The editor cannot, from
the records, give any new evidence as to the incidents in
Wallace's career which led to the armed rising that ended
in the Scottish victory at Falkirk, or verify the romantic
stories related by Henry the Minstrel, with one exception —
the slaughter of the sheriff of Lanark. The Chronicle of
Lanercost^ distinctly attributes the origin of the rising to the
Bishop of Glasgow and the Steward. The fact that the sheriff of
Lanark was killed during this period, appears incidentally in an
inquiry made about Michaelmas 1304,* as to money in the
official custody of the late Hugh de Cressingham, which had
gone amissing after his death at Stirling, and had been, it was
stated, placed in Werkworth castle in August before his death
for fear of the Scots, ' who had begun to rise against the King
* [of England], and had killed the sheriff of Lanark.' ^ His name
is not given, and so must be looked for elsewhere. Andrew de
Livingstone was sheriff of Lanark for the year 1296, when he
accounts for 80^. of its issues.^ The same Andrew, as a Lanark-
shire freeholder, appears on the Kagman Eoll, and in May 1297,
he is among the barons south of Forth to whom Edward I. sent a
verbal message. ^ From this date he occurs no more — and as the
insurrection must have come to a head about this time, the
probability is that he met his death attempting to put it down
at Lanark. ^ At any rate, Sir Andrew (who was ancestor of the

The energetic measures of Percy and Clifford soon brought
the Bishop of Glasgow and other magnates to terms. -^ These
were the Earl of Carrick, the Steward, John his brother, Alex-
ander de Lindsay, and William de Douglas ; and the Earl agreed,
under security, to deliver his young daughter Marjory as a
hostage for his loyalty. "Wallace, however, declined to submit,
and with his adherents retired to Selkirk forest, as we learn from
a letter of Cressingham to the King, written from Bermck on
23rd August.^ Douglas was put in irons in Berwick castle, the
reason assigned being that he had not fulfilled his agreement.^
He was never liberated, but was soon transferred to the Tower.*
He was alive there on 6th November,^ but must have died shortly
before 20th January 1298-99, when his widow has a writ for the
dower lands of her first husband,^ which had been seized along
with those of Douglas.
The state of Scotland, though unsettled, cannot have been
thought dangerous in the summer of 1297, as Edward left for
Flanders in August, taking with him many of the barons and
knights of Scotland, who had been released from prison on
condition of serving against France.^ But there is no doubt
there were disturbances in the far north, in the districts of
Moray and Eoss, set on foot or fomented by Andrew de Moray,
in May, who shortly afterwards joined his forces to Wallace
and fell at the battle of Stirling. So much is leaxned from

were all actively engaged in his service at the time. (Wallace.)
A historical error seems to have been committed regarding
this Andrew de Moray, and as one of the bearers of this name was
a distinguished man, and died Eegent of Scotland for David 11. ,
the present is an opportunity for setting it right. Lord Hailes, —
then, of course, without the full information from records that is
now before us, — whom all others have followed, calls his father ' Sir
* Andrew Moray of Bothwell,' and ' the only baron who adhered
' to Wallace ' ; and says that after his fall at Stirling, \yallace
' took as his partner in command the young Sir Andrew Moray '
his son. Now, though of the same stock, neither of them
was 'baron of Bothwell' in 1297. The then titular lord of
Bothwell (for Edward had confiscated the barony) was Sir William
de Moray, who swore fealty, 28th August 1296,^ along with
twenty-one of the greatest magnates, immediately after the
churchmen.
He was the heir of Walter de Moray, lord of Bothwell in the
time of Alexander III., and the manor of Lilleford, in Lincolnshire,
belonged to them.^ He appears to have been compelled to live
in England, in Lincolnshire, and in poverty, deprived of his
great estates, as shewn by Edward's order on Exchequer,^ that
sustenance be allowed him, under which he receives 25l. from
the sheriff at Michaelmas 1299 ; and he died, probably in
England, before 10th November 1300.^
Sir Andrew de Moray ' knight,' and his son Andrew de Moray
'esquire,' were both made prisoners at Dunbar in 1296. The
knight was sent to the Tower, and the esquire to Chester castle,
on 16th May 1296.^ The latter had either been ransomed or

clear by the inquisition post mortem^^ already referred to, taken
on the death of Sir William de Moray (evidently of Bothwell),

March,^ is found to be a child named Andrew ' son of Andrew
' de Moray, slain at Stirling against the King,' who was son of
the late Sir Andrew de Moray ; further, that this boy was two
years old at the last Pentecost, i.e., born about Pentecost 1298,
rather more than eight months after his father's death. What
the precise relationship between this boy and the head of the
house was, is not stated, but it is clear he was the only Andrew
living in 1300, and the nearest heir. If so, the Kegent
was a man of only forty years of age at his death in 1338,
instead of the veteran approaching seventy, as hitherto supposed,
and his wife. Christian Bruce, was much older than himself. In
fact, her son Donald earl of Mar, the Regent who fell at Dupplin
in 1332, must have been older than his step-father Moray.*

England,^ to remain till the country was settled. Another on
24th September, repeated the command, and ordered the sheriff
of York and thirteen northern barons to join Surrey with their
forces instead of coming to London.^ Surrey had by this time
retreated as far as York,^ and the whole of the border counties, as
far as Newcastle on the east, and Carlisle on the west, were over-
run by the successful Scots,^ though they were repulsed before
these fortified towns. The burgesses of Roxburgh relate in their
petition to Edward how they were surprised and only escaped
with their lives. ^ An irregular force, however, like that under
Wallace, could not long maintain the ofi'ensive, and as Edward was
known to be on his way back to England, and reinforcements
had been ordered^ to the number of about 30,000 foot, besides
the military tenants, confidence was restored, and the Earl of
Surrey is found again at Roxburgh on 16th February 1297-98,^
the King of England also issuing a writ on the 17th March^ from
Canterbury, three days after landing, thanking his forces in Scot-
land for their good services, and saying he was hastening to join
them.
After his victory at Falkirk on 22d July 1298, organised
resistance being at an end, the King of England, having
established a garrison in Stirling castle,^° departed by the western

ing^ by Edward's special grace. In December 1298, an advance
of three months' pay was made to the Earl of Surrey, four other
Earls, and Henry Percy, for an expedition into Scotland with
.500 heavy horse,^ and about the same time, foot to the number
of 8000, were ordered to be provided by the Earl of Carrick
and some Galloway chiefs, and the northern and midland counties
of Eno'land.*'
The year 1299 opens with a permission by Edward to
negotiate the exchange of ten prisoners of rank with the Scots,'
for an equal number in England. These are probably the
prisoners alluded to in the letter to Edward from his constable of
Eoxburgh castle on 20th August that year,^ which relates the
curious story, learned by his spy, of the quarrels among the nobles
at the election of the Bishop of St Andrews, the Earl of Carrick,
and John Comyn as Guardians, at Peebles a day or two before.
The Scots patriots were now raising their heads again, and were
negotiating with Philip of France, who seems to have been desir-
ous, despite Edward's positive refusal, to include them as his
allies in the truce of June 1298.^ Edward made strenuous efibrts
to apprehend the Scottish envoys on their return voyage,^*^ with-
out success.

he was obliged to desist from his intention, and leave the castle
of Stirling, then besieged by the three Guardians,^ to its fate. It
surrendered shortly after, with its garrison of ninety men,^ after
enduring considerable privations.^ The English forces at this
time held no part of Scotland beyond the Forth ; and even in
the south the castles of Bothwcll and Carlaverock were held
by the Scots. ^ In the second of the documents last referred to,
the constable of Lochmaben tells the King of England that he
had secured the head of Robert de Coningham constable of
Carlaverock, and set it up on the keep of his fortress. The
slain man was a nephew of the Steward of Scotland. This
shews the ferocity of these Border forays into which the war
had degenerated. An undated document^ assigned to this
period must be placed one, perhaps two years later.
Early in 1300, Edward gave large orders for provisions to
be forwarded from England and Ireland, to Berwick and
Skinburness near Carlisle, by Midsummer, and h&,ving ordered
16,000 foot to muster at Carlisle, joined them with his son and

Nithsdale, and the outlying post of Botel in Kirkcudbright for
Galloway. By a return in February preceding,^ the garrison of

held by 70 men-at-arms, and 200 foot.* Berwick-on-Tweed was
held by 30 men-at-arms and 200 foot^ ; and Jedburgh and Eox-

Mote of Lydel were in the hands of Sir Simon de Lindesay, with
what number of men is not stated.^ In a roll for the last month
of the year,^ we learn that Carlisle was besieged by the Scots
for a month in November and December 1297, after the victory
of Stirling; and also between 20th July and 2nd August 1298 ;
which latter attack shews perhaps an attempted diversion in
favour of Wallace and his army, who were being crushed at
Falkirk. Twenty-one unfortunate Galwegians had been placed
by Surrey in Carlisle castle in 1297 as hostages, ten of whom
had died, and the others were still there. The letter from
Philip of France, bespeaking the Pope's favour for Sir William
Wallace, was probably written, either in this or the end of the

other barons and knights, to meet the Prince at Carlisle with

(at Peebles on 10th August)^ of the late Sir William de Moray's
barony of Both well, &c., to Aymar de Valence, though the
castle was then in the enemy's hands. He must have received
several disturbing pieces of news in his progress. The warden
of Lochmaben castle, writing on lOtli September, reported his
repulse of an attack on that fortress l)y a strong Scottish force,
under Sir John de Soulis and Sir Ingram de Umfraville ; * and
three days later, the constable of Roxburgh gave him further
news of this same army.^ On the 14th of the same month a
serious mutiny in the garrison of Berwick-on-Tweed, owing to
the men being in arrear of pay, was reported to him by its
constable, and though it was put down, from the lucky chance of
the money arriving, yet the leaders concerned were dissatisfied

division, their daily, weekly, and yearly pay, and the like

the forest of Selkirk.
From Linlithgow, in November,'' Edward ordered additional
stores from Ireland to be delivered at Skynburness and Ayr for
the Prince, and to supply Lochmaben and Dumfries. He also
built a house for himself at Linlithgow;^ and had large quanti-
ties of hay shipped at Newcastle for the port of Blackness on
the Forth.^ Additional levies of 4900 foot were ordered to march

About the beginning of February 1301-2, Edward set out for

In singular contrast to his actual position, the letter of King

In it Philip encourages the Scots in their resistance to Edward,

prudently commits further details to the bearer, William, bishop
of St Andrews, their feUow Guardian.

The English retained the various fortresses and districts already
stated as being in their hands. Particular details are given of
the constables and garrisons of these and their other munitions
till Christmas,^ and we see the progress of the new works

Edward, being now disengaged from foreign wars, bent his
whole force to subdue Scotland. On 9th April 1303, 9500 foot
were ordered to muster at Eoxburgh by 12th May, from York,
Nottingham, Derby, Lancaster, Westmoreland, Cumberland,
Durham, and Northumberland.* Besides these the Earl of
Carrick was requested to bring men-at-arms, and 1000 foot of
Carrick and GaUoway, and Sir Richard Siward 300 foot of
Nithsdale.^ The pay roll of this army for both years, 1303
and 1304,^ supplies data for approximately estimating its
numbers. The levies ordered from Ireland have been already
referred to.' Two fortified wooden bridges had been constructed
under the King's direction at Lynn Regis, at great cost, for the
passage of the army across the Forth, and were shipped for
Scotland under escort of a fleet of thirty vessels in May ^ ; and
engines of war, stores, &c., had been despatched to the north. ^
In the face of these formidable preparations, the Scottish envoys

Though in winter quarters, the King of England did not
encourage idleness. He ordered carpenters and other workmen
to be sought for in the Lothians, and sent to Dunfermline to
prepare for his intended siege of Stirling,^ the last remaining
stronghold in native hands. To harass those Scots who kept
the field, he sent a cavalry expedition across the Forth to the
neighbourhood of Stirling under very stringent orders as to
secrecy.* And in the beginning of January 1303-4, Sir John
de Botetourte, justiciar of Galloway, organised a very strong
expedition of nearly 3000 men, to make a foray on the
Scots in the south-west.^ Aymar de Valence had been treating
for some time with Comyn and his allies to bring them to

Stirling;^ and sat down before the castle on 21st April.* From
that clay till its surrender three months later, he personally
directed the siege, for which extensive preparations were made,"
and every precaution taken to prevent supplies to the garrison.^
Lead for the engines was also stripped from all the churches
in the district, care being taken however to leave the altars
covered.^ The Earl of Carrick, who had succeeded by his
father's death to his English estates, actively assisted, for
substantial reasons.^ The lands of many Scotsmen who had
come to Edward's peace were restored to them,^ prominent
among these being the Bishops of St Andrews and Dunkeld and
others of the late envoys to France. ^*^ The goods and chattels
of Sir William Oliphant the constable, and the garrison of
Stirling were given to a recreant countryman." To judge
from the scarcity of jDrovisions among the besiegers,^^ the
garrison must have been in great privation. At least thir-
teen engines and a 'war wolf of novel construction battered
their ramparts,^^ and Greek fire was showered on the de-
fenders.^* They surrendered unconditionally on St Margaret's
day (20th July), only twenty-five persons being named in
the instrument attesting the surrender, along with the
governor, though there seem to have been others still
within. ^^ A curious fact is mentioned in a letter on the
day the castle fell, that Edward ordered that none of his
people should enter till it was struck by the 'war wolf,'

nearly 400/., but as part of the document is much destroyed the
details are not distinct. Beside land and burgh farms, it contains
accounts of customs and arrangements for their collection at

of this man's name being scored out of a list of prisoners in
England, at that date.^ Before this time Edward de Kethe had
received a gift from the King of England of whatever he might
gain in pursuit of his patriot countryman.^ There are very few
notices in the Calendar to add to the little that is known
of Wallace's real history, outside of the poem of Henry the
Minstrel. Whether he is the William le Waleys, whose companion
is accused of robbery at Perth, in June 1296,^° the editor cannot

The commission for his trial on 18th August marks the close ^ num)'''
of his career,^ his execution taking place on the 23rd.^ King
Edward's harsh treatment of him seems due to personal
resentment, for while he had never sworn allegiance, those who
had repeatedly violated their fealty were pardoned, favoured, and
even trusted.
The King of England now made what he doubtless thought
was a final settlement of Scotland,^ appointing his nephew,
John of Brittany, Warden, with subordinate officers. The
sheriffs of counties, with one or two exceptions, were Scots,
the castles were committed to Englishmen, or Scots in his
interest, and several persons were punished by banishment
for certain periods. Orders were given for the courteous
treatment of Scottish magnates and others passing through
England,^ and the High Steward made his submission at West-
minster.*' Rewards were bestowed on the captors of Wallace, and
on Sir John de Menteith,^ who, it is right to point out, was at
that time and had been for a year before the capture, an official
in the English interest, being sheriff and constable of Dunbarton.
With the spring of 1306 dismal news reached King Edward,
the murder of Comyn and rebellion of Bruce. That an appear-
ance at least of trusting Bruce was maintained till this event, is
shewn by a writ, dated 8 th February, two days before the
murder, acquitting him of a debt due by his father.® By the
24th of that month Edward had heard the news at Itchenestoke

other patriots lost their lands, of which there is no record.
At no period of his life is the fiery energy of the King of
England more apparent than in these last eighteen months of his
life. The writs, often only drafts, are altered and interlined to
express his wishes more clearly. He urges his lieutenants to
action," expresses his gratitude to God for their successes,^^ orders
that no terms be kept with the Bishops of St Andrews and
Glasgow, but unconditional surrender, ^^ adding his earnest mshes
for their capture, and his pleasure on hearing one is taken ;^* gives

Such are a few of the contents of the letters despatched while

Alexander de Lindesay, and others not named. Nigel Bruce
was executed, after trial by a special commission, at Berwick.*
How the other two escaped a like fate does not appear. The
Countesses of Carrick and Buchan, Maria and Christina the
sisters, and Margery the daughter, of Bruce, were taken in the
sanctuary of St Duthac, at Tain, by the Earl of Ross, and
delivered to Edward.^ They were placed in strict confinement,
three of them in 'kages.'^ The Earl of Athol, Simon Eraser,
Christopher Seton, and others of note, were executed, the two
former at London and the last at Dumfries.^ The Bishops of St

xlviii INTRODUCTION.
1306. The Bishop of Glasgow made a request to Edward to be
Ed^^I. enlarged in England, till the 'ryote' of his countrymen was
(Eobertl.) p^^ clown.' The Bishop of Moray saved himself by flight to
Orkney, where the King of England endeavoured to persuade
Haco, King of Norway, to arrest him,^ without success. In
addition to these stern examples of vengeance, one may be added,
hitherto it is believed unknown.^ On 4th August 1306, a special
commission at Newcastle-on-Tyne sentenced to death, without
trial, fifteen Scotsmen and one Englishman, taken in arms, with
one exception, on the field of Methven, which, if we accept the
date in the indictment, was fought on Sunday the 26th of the
previous June.* Edward's instructions (drawn up by himself at
Laysingby near Carlisle, on the 1st of August) were express, that
none should be allowed to answer. It cannot be doubted that
they aU met their doom.^ Among them were Alexander le
Skyrmyshour, created by Wallace hereditary standard-bearer of
Scotland, and John de Seton, ' Englishman.' The latter was
captured in Tibbers castle, near Dumfries, and was indicted for
aiding in Comyn's murder, and making prisoner the sheriff' of
Dumfries, Richard Siward. From his style of ' Englishman,' he
was probably a brother or near relative of Christopher Seton,
who was tried as a native subject of Edward.
We must now turn to the central figure — the new King
of Scotland. After his defeat at Methven, Bruce and his
small band of adherents, escaping into Athol, lurked for some
time there and in the West Highlands, enduring much hard-
ship, from which, when reduced to the extremity of famine
among the hills, they were at length rescued by the Earl of
Lennox, who till then thought King Robert had been killed at
Methven. They then made their way by sea to Kintyre, where
Angus of the Isles received them into his castle of Dunaverty,
at the extreme south of that peninsula. Fearful of treachery,

Bruce remained only three days within its walls, and with his 1 306-7.
followers crossed to Rachrin, an island thirteen or fourteen Edward I.
miles to the south-west, about four miles from the north coast ^'^
of Ireland. From the Eecords we learn that King Edward
acknowledged directly the important services of John of Argyll
in pursuit,^ and that the fugitive was followed so closely by
his enemies that Dunaverty castle was under siege on 22nd
September,^ and had been invested probably some days before.
And it is clear his island refuge had been discovered, for on
29th and 30th January 1306-7, there are orders for Hugh
Biset and his fleet to join Sir John de Menteith and Simon
de Montacute in pursuing Robert Bruce and his accomplices
and destroying their retreat.^ On 1st February Edward
ordered the sheriff" of Cumberland to despatch vessels well
manned and armed to Ayr, in search of Bruce, and assist his
Admiral, who was at sea on the same duty.^ Thus rumours of
his return to Scotland (which Barbour says was in early spring),
may have preceded the actual event. But it is somewhat un-
accountable that Bruce was permitted to remain undisturbed, to
all appearance, in Rachrin from September tiU January. It was
within the territories of the powerful family of the Bisets of the
Glens of Antrim, who were warm adherents of Edward I., and
though the currents and races of these stormy seas are proverbial,
they could be no obstacle to hardy mariners. He may, therefore,
have been for these mid-winter months, in some more distant
refuge.^ For Barbour asserts that on reaching Carrick in
spring, he for the first time learned the disasters and executions
of his friends, from a lady a 'ner cosyn' of his own in that
country. The desertion also of some of his principal adherents,
the Earl of Menteith, Sir Patrick Graham, and others, in Novem-
ber preceding, was then probably first made known to him.^

1306-7. He must also have then heard of the total defeat of the force
Edward I. of 700 Irishmen, brought to his aid by Thomas and Alexander
(Robert I.) j^^^ brothers, which was cut to pieces on landing (9th February)
at Lochryan, by Dougal Macdowall, when the heads of his
brothers and Sir Eanald Cra^^ord and other leaders, were placed
on the gates of Carlisle.-^ Even his resolute spirit might have
quailed at this news, and not less at the unknown dangers yet
before him, while he was to be hunted for his life among his
native hills.
Whatever may have been the exact date of Bruce's reaching
Carrick, early in February the Enghsh King must have beheved
in his arrival, for he writes from his sick-room at Lanercost
on 6th and 11th February, ordering a distinct report from Aymar
de Valence and his other officers at Ayr, of their doings against
the Scots, to be sent to him by a trustworthy messenger, as he
believes they are concealing the real state of matters, and have
done so badly they do not wish him to know the truth. ^ At this
point Barbour confuses dates, saying that the prisoners from
Kildrummy were brought to Edward at Burgh-on-Sands, on his
death-bed (July 1307), when he ordered them all to instant
execution. Whereas, as we have seen, Kildrummy was taken
nearly a year earlier, in September 1306. But his romantic
account of Bruce's pursuit by Aymar de Valence with a cavalry
force, and John of Lome (or Argyll) with 800 men 'and ma,'
and a bloodhound that once belonged to the fugitive King, is
borne out so far by the warrant of 1 9tli July, under the seal
of Sir Aymar, then at Dalmolin near Ayr, for pay to Lome,
who with 800 foot, and 22 men-at-arms was then guarding that
town.^ So, too, is Barbour's narrative of the failure of Aymar de
Valence's attempt to surprise Bruce in his retreat at Glentrool.^
On 20th February 1500 Border foot were mustered at Carlisle to
pursue him, and on 19th March 1000 from Lancaster, with 1500
more from Cumberland and Westmoreland;^ while it is otherwise
certain that from 12th February to 3rd May he must have been

in a most critical position. On the side of Nitlisdale, Sir Jolin 1306-7.
Botetourte the warden, was in pursuit with 70 horse and 200 Edw^ I.
archers. On that of A5n'shire, Sir Aymar de Valence with 700 (^°^^^*^^-)
archers was on his track. Sir Robert de Clifford, with a small
detachment, kept guard at the water of Cree ; and from Carlisle,
70 horsemen and 40 archers, with 300 Tynedale men under Sir
Geoffrey de Moubray, were sent by the English King himself
to Glentrool in special search of Bruce, between 10th April and
3rd May.^ A map of the district will show how near he must
often have been to his enemies, and that his escapes must have
been often narrow. He did, however, extricate himself from the
toils, and by the 10th of May (according to Barbour), defeated
Sir Aymar de Valence at Loudon Hill, on the border of Ayr and
Lanarkshire, nearly thirty-five miles to the north. The date
of this action is given by the English historians ^ as about the
end of March, but Barbour's date is supported by two letters,
without a year, but dated 15 th May. In the first of these,^
from Carlisle, King Edward's anger at the retreat of the Guardian
before 'King Hobbe' (as he calls Bruce) is mentioned; also that he
had reviewed his cavalry (400 men) decked with leaves, on
AVhitsunday, and was very merry. The writer adds a curious
fact that James of Douglas had sent to be received, but on seeing
the English forces retreat [at Loudon Hill] he had drawn back ;
showing how desperate Bruce's prospects must have been before
this success. The second letter,^ from Forfar, gives the rumours
about Bruce that possibly had been brought from the same fight,
and his improved prospects, and the expectation that he njight
come that way.^ From its mention of King Edward's possible
death, the editor, with some hesitation, has assigned it to this
period, though neither the writer nor person addressed are
named. The action of Loudon Hill was not decisive in its
effects, for the English operations were going on in a few days
after ; a foray from Dumfries, in the direction of Cumnock, being

days after Loudon Hill, and besieged him in Ayr castle, but to
have retired on succours approaching. ^ On 1st June, Aymar de
Valence, then at Bothwell castle, orders 300 foot for Earl Patrick
at Ayr, and workmen for the repairs of the castle.^ He was at
Ayr himself ten days afterwards,* from that time till Edward's
death, making expeditions into the neighbourhood in search of
his late opponent. He was, early in July, on another foray
to Carrick and Glentrool ; ^ about Ayr from 17th to 19th July ; ^
in the Glenkens (Kirkcudbright) on the 24th ; ^ by the 31st he
was back at Skeldon on the Doon, above Ayr ; ^ and was still at
Ayr with many knights, Clifford, Hastings, &c., in that month or
August.^ These writs seem to indicate that Bruce must have
been in that district, not in the north of Scotland, at this time, for
the Warden would hardly have remained to pursue an inferior foe.
With the death of Edward L the greatest danger had passed
away, and Robert Bruce's career was thenceforth one of steady
progress, though toilsome years were to pass before he secured
his throne, even by the all but unanimous recognition of his own
countrymen.^''
A few words must be said on the seals in the text and Ap-
pendices I. and IIL There are contained in this volume descrip-
tions of the seals, still extant to the number of about 860, that
were attached to the original homages of Scotsmen in 1296. Of
these there are about 20 duplicate and borrowed seals, besides a
few of Englishmen who had an official connection with Scotland
at that time, but all, with scarcely an exception, are of that period.

INTEODUCTIOK liii
The seals (86 in number) which have been autot5rped^ by Mr 1296
Charles Prsetorius are, generally speaking, of excellent design,
in a superior kind of wax, many having been appended to im-
portant instruments at the time of the Competition for the
Crown, or to single homages.^ The five plates containing these
are numbered at the beginning of Appendix III.
Many of those that follow are also very good, quite equal in
execution, but being often joined on tags or strings, were not
found suitable for the autotype process. As a rule, the general
homage seals are impressed on olive-green coloured wax, and at
first sight seem rudely executed. But on careful examination
they are extremely interesting, and shew a considerable amount of,
we may believe, native art in the designers. The characters of the
animals and birds depicted are true to nature, and many of the
devices and designs are curious. Many are not armorial,
exhibiting the devices of a flower, a shrub, a rabbit, or a bird.
A stag's head cabossed, a hunting horn, a star and crescent, are
also common. A considerable number, above 100, have bafiled
the decipherer, and still remain a subject for conjecture. As they
have been described with every possible care, shewing how many
are attached together, they may be identified by a comparison
with the names on the Roll, and a process of induction. By this
means many have been definitely, some conjecturally, ascertained.^
The surname of the homager is not always the same as that on
his or her seal, and what is singular, seals appear to have been lent,
for in several instances the same seal occurs more than once in a
homage. It will be noticed on examining the EoU, that the
homages were at first made singly by imjDortant persons from
May to July, and thereafter on 28tli August they were made in
groups, more or less in number, beginning with the churchmen and
magnates, after which landowners, both great and small, are found

1296, on the same deed. The seals were probably first affixed, and each
made oath in turn touching his or her own seal, after the manner
still in use in the execution of English deeds. It is believed that
the placing these seals in juxtaposition to the Ragman Roll will
supjDly a want long felt by more than one eminent Scottish
antiquary. It has been found impracticable, for the reasons
stated above, to make a separate index to them. Where
identified or conjectured, however, a reference has been placed
to the seal after the name of the owner.
The subject of seals being cognate to that of genealog}^,
reference may now be made to some genealogical questions on
which the documents in the Calendar throw light. Two of some
historical interest have been already adverted to.
We discover probably the last appearance of Alan Durward,
so prominent in the early years of Alexander III., as still in
1274-92. possession of the castle of Bolsover, on 25th August 1274.^ It
may be noticed that in Nicholas de Soulis' claim to the Crow^n
(in the Great Roll) a slip is committed ; his mother, Ermegarda,
being there apjoarently called the daughter and heir of Alexander
III. Whereas, it will be seen in the original instrument, that
his mother was daughter of Alan Durward, who had married a
daughter of Alexander II. Soulis' mother was thus the niece of
Alexander III. This partly supplies a missing link in the
Durward genealogy. A later Sir Alan Durward is found
holding office at Inverness in 1291-92;^ and Thomas Durward
of Angusshire is on the Ragman Roll.
Alexander III., as the Scottish overlord of the late Walter de
Lindesay of Lamberton and Kendal, is found on 23rd September
1274,^ certifying that the re-marriage of Cristiana his widow, to
Walter de Percy of Kildale, took place in his kingdom. On 14th
June next year, Edward I. condoned Percy's trespass for a fine
of 80 marks. ^

document.^ It does not appear what was the object of bastardis-
ing these elder brothers, or entering into the fabulous details as to
Ranulph de Meschinis having received the earldom of Karliol from
WiUiam the Conqueror. In some respects, the latter portion
especially, where it treats of Cospatrick of Bolton, and what
follows, it is almost identical with the Chroiiicon Cumhrice,'^ but the
beginning is quite different. Some historical persons are how-
ever named, and there seems no reason to discredit the assertion
that Duncan King of Scotland married Ethelreda the daughter of
Earl Gospatric (I.).
The Molecastres and Penningtons of Cumberland appear to
have held Gyffyn in Coningham, probably a grant to one or
other family from the de Morvilles.^
Robert de Brus of Annandale, afterwards Competitor, had
married as a second wife a Cumberland heiress, Cristiana de
Irby, before 1279.^ They often appear in the records from
this date.
The surname of Lokard or Lokarde (found in Dumfries-
shire, in William the Lyon's reign, ^) occurs as one of seven co-
parceners, mostly Scottish, in the barony of Levington in
Cumberland.^
In the inquisition on the death of John ^i^etjunioi' of Glenarm,
whose three co-heiresses are all married to Scotsmen, the island
of Rachrin, the future refuge of Robert Bruce, occurs among his
possessions.^
In the Assize Roll of Werk in Tynedale, details are given of the
Comyn family in 1279, showing that John Comyn of Tynedale
(father of him whom Bruce killed at Dumfries) had a younger
brother John Comyn junior, who was portioned in Thorne-
ton in Tynedale.^ This younger John appears once again as Sir
John Comyn 'le joen,' in 1297,^ in contradistinction to his
elder brother, there styled Sir John of Badenoch as the head

1297-1303. of the family. It also appears that this younger Sir John had
a uterine brother Robert and a sister Alicia, shewing that
his mother, whose name was Alicia,^ must have married another
Comyn.'* This Robert was doubtless the uncle Sir Robert who
was killed at Dumfries with his uterine nephew.^ It may also be
pointed out here that an entry on the Close Rolls establishes the
fact, much discussed in the history of the Earldom of Menteith, that
Isabella countess of Menteith, wiie of William Comyn of Kirkintil-
loch, was not, as often caUed, the daughter of Walter Comyn, but
of John Russel, the English knight, who was the second husband
of Walter Comyn's widow, the elder Countess of Menteith.^
Another piece of evidence about this once great family
is afforded by the inquisition on 30th December 1303,* taken
before the deputies of the Earl of Carrick, then sheriff of
Lanark, wherein it was found that Sir John Comyn (who is styled
' grandfather of Sir John Comyn then living ') gave the land of
Dalserf in Clydesdale in frank marriage with his daughter to Sir
William de Galbrathe, by whom it was given to his own son
William and the latter's wife Willelma, daughter of the late Sir
William de Douglas, and the four co-heiresses of these last
inherited — the eldest being a daughter Johanna, mother of
Bernard de Cathe,^ then living. While Dalserf was known to
have been an early possession of the Comyns, these details of
relationship to the Galbraiths and Douglases seem new.
Cristiana de Valoignes, the heiress of Panmure, appears at
Berwick, 10th August 1291,^ attending to her affairs. Having
been married in 1215 she had reached a great age.

On 11 til March 1285-86 Edward I. consented to a marriage
between John the heir of Athol and a daughter of Sir William
de Soules.^
Eric King of Norway, after a lapse of ten years from the
death of Margaret of Scotland, his first Queen, took as his second,
Isabella daughter of the elder Kobert earl of Carrick, in 1292.
The inventory of the valuable robes, jewels, plate, and two
crowns, delivered at Bergen, 25th September 1293,^ by the
envoys of her father for her use, is new. If the mother of
Thomas Eandolph earl of Moray was, as she is usually called,
Isabella, then there were two sisters of the same name. They
may have been the children of different marriages.
An interesting point in the pedigree of the Douglases occurs
in the sheriff's return for the lands of Scotsmen in Essex, seized
by Edward I. in 1296.^ William de Douglas held lands there
in right of the wdfe whom he abducted at Tranent — Alianora de
Ferrars — as dower from her first husband, and among other
properties seized was a son of his named Hugh, said to be
nearly two years old, and born in England. This boy lived to
be for a short time the head of the family, after the death in
Spain of his more eminent half brother ' the Good ' Sir James.
From a petition for exchange of prisoners on 7th April 1299^
it is learned that Marie, successively Queen of Man and Countess
of Stratherne, had married a third time, an Englishman, Sir
William fitz Waren. She was a daughter of the house of
Argyll,^ and died before 10th October 1303.*^
The Kneage of the family of Seton, which rose to high rank in
Scotland, is illustrated by several documents. In the first of
these, John de Seton is found on 4th July 1291, accompanying
Edward I. by his special order to St Andrews.'' On 6th October
1294, the same John perhaps, (for he had lands in Yorkshire),
becomes surety for John Comyn, who had committed an assault
on the doorkeeper of Exchequer.^ By 11th September 1299, he
was dead, leaving lands in the counties of Cumberland and York,

his son Christopher being his heir, who was twenty-one years
of age on 25th March of that year.^ By later documents, it
appears that the father left a widow named Erminia.^ Chris-
topher was thus only twenty-eight when he was executed
in 1306.
Eobert de Coningham, the slain constable of Carlaverock
castle,^ was probably the same who appears on the Ragman Roll
as of Ayrshire. The connection between him and James the
Steward of Scotland, whose sister was his aunt by marriage, is
new to the editor.*
Sir John the Stew^ard, next brother of James the High Steward,
who fell at Falkirk in 1298, and is generally styled ' of Bonkill,'
can only have been so in expectancy, through his marriage to
the heiress, Margaret de Bonkill. For Sir Alexander de Bonkill,
her father, was alive till shortly before 27th April 1300, when an
inquisition of his Cumberland lands was taken, where it is found
that his daughter and heir Margaret remains with the enemy in
Scotland.^ His widow, Crestiene, petitioned Edward I. for
dower on 7th June afterwards.^ Margaret, his daughter, became
the wife of Sir David de Brechin before 7th July 1304, when she
and her husband are received to the King's peace.' She was
dead before September of that year, when a dispute is recorded
in the Register of John de Halton bishop of Carlisle, as having
taken place regarding the presentation to the church of Ulvedale
in his diocese. It is there stated that her heir by John Steward
was a minor, that she had married David de Brechin under a
Papal dispensation, and had issue by him, and that he sur-
vived her. (9th Report of Commissioners on Hist. MSS., App.
p. 181 h.)

fined at that period to the family whicli afterwards took the sur-
name of Hamilton. A seal in the Chapter House collection (App.
in., 157) bearing this charge, has accordingly been attributed to
Walter fitz Gilbert, their ancestor. The original homage to which
it and four others have been appended, has perished, but it can be
identified on the Ragman Roll (p. 198), by these four seals, the
inscriptions on which are distinct, while on the fifth (that under
notice), the words ' s' valteri dweam,' can be read with some
difiiculty, but certainly not Walter fitz Gilbert. AU five belong
undoubtedly to a homage by persons from eleven difi'erent
counties, on which the name, not of Walter fitz Gilbert, but of
Walter Duraunt, a Dumfriesshire landowner, occurs. In another
homage (p. 199), Walter de Burghdon of Roxburghshire appears,
his seal (App. III., 2 (15) ) bearing a single cinquefoil. In 1302 a
knight of the same Christian and surname was sherifi" of Lanark
and constable of Carstairs, and in that capacity his seal (p. 337) is
appended to his indenture, and bears three cinquefoils. That of
Sir William de Duresme (or Durham) sheriff of Peebles (ibid. ) ^
bears three cinquefoils on a bend. These coincidences are some-
what remarkable. The de Burghdons were a Northumberland
family, from which county some have thought the Hamiltons
also came.
Several references occur, illustrating the connection of the
Campbell family with Ayrshire. Robert de Kethe, who appears
to have been a speculator in wardships,^ complained that Sir Nigel
Cambel had taken possession of the ward of the two daughters
of Andrew de Crawfurd, which the complainant had bought
from John BaUiol while King. Sir Nigel appears further to
have married the younger of these daughters, and Crawfurd's
estate seems to have been the barony of Longemertenock in Ayr-
shire (p. 425). Sir Nigel is found afterwards in possession of
the ward of the heir of Hubert de Multon,^ with the King of
England's license to marry the widow. He was dead before 25th

October 1305/ when the ward of his son, a minor, is given to Sir
John de Dovedale. It has generally been said that Sir Nigel
Cambel married one of the sisters of the Earl of Carrick. If so,
she must have been an earlier wife than either of these ladies, or
the Colin Cambel, Bruce's nephew, who is named by Barbour as
being rebuked sharply by his uncle for his rashness in the
Irish campaign of 1317, could hardly be the son of this Sir Nigel,
who is the only knight of that name occurring in the records at
this date.^
In June 1304,^ Sir Patrick de Dunbar son of the Earl of
March, receives a cask of new wine for his wife. Lady Ermigarda,
then pregnant. This marriage is hitherto unknown, and it is
uncertain who the lady was. If this Patrick was he who suc-
ceeded his father in 1309, and was the last of the line of earls
named Patrick, the only wife assigned to him is the celebrated
Black Agnes, daughter of Thomas Randolph earl of Moray, whom
he married about 1323.
Many of the documents in this volume are undated, and
those often not the least valuable as tending to throw light on
the acts and motives of some of the chief persons of the time.
This has caused much thought and labour in endeavouring to fit
such writings into their proper places. Some perhaps could now
be more properly placed, though, on the whole, the editor thinks
they have been arranged with a fair approximation to chrono-
logical sequence.
The editor has, in concluding, to repeat his acknowledgments
to the Master of the Rolls, and Sir William Hardy, the Deputy-
keeper, for the great facilities afforded him in consulting the
Public Records under their charge, as well as to their assistant
officers, Mr Selby especially, who is always ready to solve a
difficulty when such occurs.

U CALENDAR OF DOCUMENTS
Edward I. 61. These are tlie demands of Alexander the Steward of Scotland,
to our lord the K. of England by his messengers.
1275. The Steward relates how he bought from ' mi sire' Edward, now
Nov. 14. K., the ward of the land of Skipton in Craven, for 1500/. sterling,
then held by Sir Simon de Montfort, and as Sir Edward wished the
Steward to have immediate seisin, he caused him to grant his letter
patent, binding himself to pay 500/., but not having [the ward] has
not yet paid a penny. Nor could the Steward have seisin, for Earl
Simon did not hold the ward for more than a year after the sale, to
the Steward's great damage. The Steward came to the country and
paid to 'mi sire' Jon le Bretun 1061/. 16s. sterling; and to a
' vallet ' whom Ingeram had, 400 marks to pay merchants at the
fair of Lynn, by view of ' misires ' Eou Dunyung and Williame
de Salynis. Meanwhile he was attorned by * mi sire' Edward to
pay 300 marks to Sir Eichard de Bedeford ; who lent them to
him on condition, that if not paid at a certain day and term,
he should lose all he had paid for the ward of Skipton. Having
granted his letter to Eichard to this effect, 200 marks were duly
paid to Eichard, but the third 100 could not be, for the Steward's
letter had been delivered to ' mi sire ' Edward, who did his will with
the ward under the above condition, but did not refuse the Steward's
messenger, for he was attorned also to pay for ' mi sire ' Edward to
Benard Nicholas and Arnulph Griffin 66 or 68 'livres,' which money
was never paid by the Steward, in misprision by him of ' misire '
Edward and the merchants. It must also be remembered how the
Steward on his way to England to ' mi sire ' Edward, to agree with
said merchants for the debt, was robbed between Blye (Blyth) and
Tuckisford of nearly 500 marks sterling, and lost all his horses
and harness, and was detained by Eobert de Wyleby till he got a
fine from him. But since this is all passed, the Steward, who has
spent and lost much about this ward, humbly prays our Lord the K.
for his grace in a ward or marriage to him or any of his children
that he be not a loser. ' Kar pleder ne went, mes le resun bust.'
He puts himself in the K.'s grace and asks a written answer by the
messenger. Norman French. [Eoijal Letters, No. 1788.]

Earl Cospatryk, formerly earl of Dunbar in Scotland, had a
brother, Doliin earl of Northumberland, who, both being bastards,
had a legitimate brother Waldeve, and a legitimate sister Etheldreda.
Waldeve and Etheldreda were of one father and one mother. After
Ranulph de Meschinis came to England with William Bastard the
Conqueror, that King gave him all the land from the place called
Rere Crosse upon Staynmora, as far as the river towards Scotland
called Sulewaht [Solway] to the true marches there between
England and Scotland. And the said Ranulph was then created
Earl of Karliol. Ranulph gained the forsaid Waldeve as an ally on
account of the war between the Scots and England, as he was a
Scotsman, and gave him for his service the whole Barony of Allerdale,
from the place called Wahtelpole as far as Derwent, saving to him-
self all his venison.

said forest.
jf Waldeve also gave to Melbeht, his servant who came into the
country with him, the whole vill of Bramfield, saving to himself the
advowson of the church.
To Waldeve succeeded his son and heir Alan, who was under age
V and in the ward of K. David of Scotland, who held the land of
Cumbria (for there was war between K. Henry, not yet King, nephew
of said David, and son of the Empress Matilda, and Stephen the
King, uncle of the aforesaid K. Henry), and on obtaining majority
obtained all his father's land in Allerdale.
jf Alan had a bastard brother on his father's side, by name
V Cospatryk, to whom he gave the township of Bolton within the
forest, and Bastenthwyt outside the forest, and Hestholm in Derwen-
watre.

nephew of said Alan, begotten of Etheldreda sister of his father
Waldeve, succeeded to Alan.
jf The said William held the whole barony of Allerdale, except
Palmcastr' which is land in the forest at present, on account of the
war moved between the K. of Scotland and the said William, who
had espoused Alicia de Eumeley daughter of Robert de Rumeley lord
of Scyptona, who had formerly espoused the daughter of William de
Meschinis lord of Couplande.
jf The said William begot of his said wife William ' the Boy of

whom, Cecilia, was married, with the honour of Scyptona, to William
the Gross earl of Albemarle, by the foresaid Henry, then King of
England, being in the K.'s custody as a minor; and the second,
Amabillis, was married to Reginald de Lucy with the honour of

to him William who lately was'. And to him succeeded Avelyna his

knight, her ' coguatus,' who held the whole Barony of AUerdale
all K. Eichard's life, and in K. J[ohn's] time, until he died vathout
an heir.
And it is to be noted that when the war v/as moved between the
King of Scotland and William fitz Duncan (the father of Cecilia,
Amabillis, and Alicia), Eoger Goky, who was with the K., presented
himself and begged from him for his service the land of St
Hilda in Ingylwode, which the K. gave him of the heritage of
these sisters, and he held it for almost 30 years and more. And at
the close of his life he became a ' conversus ' of the Abbey of Holm,
and before his death they [the monks ?] came to K. J[ohn], who
granted it to them as the said Eoger Goky formerly held it, Eobert

foresaid {sic) Eobert son of the same Eobert, or John son of Eobert,
in 10 marks of land in Gyffin in Scotland, in a certain member
thereof called ' Braydestanes'; and if it chanced that all the members

Edward I. the said mine was alienated from the King of England. Who say
on oath that this was done by one Ealph de Levingtone, who held the
1278-79. manor of Aldenestone in farm from one Nicholas de Veteripont,
Nov. 3- who, when Ealph's lease ended, and the manor was again in his own
Jan. 16. seisin, and likewise Eobert de Yetsripont, his son, the present owner,
have hitherto continued the said alienation, and the latter permitted
the King of Scotland's coroner of Tindale to act, whereas the sergeant
of the mine, on behalf of the K. of England, should have acted as
coroner by law, as more fully shewn in the Crown pleas of the last
iter. They say also that very many evil-doers of Cumberland and
elsewhere are harboured there. And when the said Eobert learned
that the justices were on their way to these parts, he removed all the
evil-doers so resetted, especially one John son of Sireda de Bosco who V
killed Adam, son of Adam son of Martin of Laysingby. And as
Eobert does not appear to answer to the K., it was decided that the
mine and liberty should be taken in the K.'s hand. The justices also
order that Sir Hugh de Muleton of Hof, and Eobert de Wardewik
should be sent there to hear and determine Crown pleas of the mine
that had emerged since the last justice eyre. Who, making oath
were sent to Aldenestone on Monday next after the Feast of St Hilary
• last to try the same. And in the 5th week after Easter, before the
justices at Appelby, Eobert came and acknowledged that the mine
belonged to the K, of England, and he claimed nothing therein.
Whereon the K. commanded that the record and process should be
sent to him in the octaves of Trinity, and Eobert be then attached
by the sheriff to answer for his trespass. Eobert and the sheriff being
accordingly present, Eobert was delivered by the justices to the
sheriff in form. The justices wishing further information, two of
their number taking with them the Sheriffs of Cumberland and
Westmoreland, and a quorum of knights and good men of these
counties,' made stricter inquiry on Eobert de A^eteripont's right, and
also the true bounds between Aldenestone and Tyndale, which they
viewed and considered by eye-witness in respect that certain bailiffs
of the King of Scotland of Tyndale came before them at Carlisle and
said that Aldenestone was within the said King's liberty of Tyndale ;

was an escheat to the K. by one Hervic fitz Maurin, convicted of
felony. The late K. Henry gave it to Walter Mauclerk, bishop of
Carlisle, 43 years ago. The Bishop holds a certain land near Dal-
ston, viz., Cumberdale and Caldecot, but whether it is of the barony
of Dalston, or demesne of Carlisle Castle, they know not. As the

by, Salkeld, Scotteby, and Karltone were in the late K. Henry's
hands as a pertinent of his castle of Carlisle, and the King of Scots
now holds them by gift of the late K. ; and his father held 40
years past as they believe. They say that Little Salkeld was
demesne of K. Pilchard, who gave the vill to one Adam le Sauser, to
be held by service of 6 marks yearly. And the late K. Henry gave
that service to one Walter bishop of Carlisle, who afterwards with
the K.'s consent enfeoffed the Prior and convent of the Blessed Mary
of Carlisle therein ; and the Prior has now proffered a charter attest-
ing this. They say also that the isle of Holm Coltram was the
demesne of K. Henry senior, who founded that Abbey. The Abbot
of Holm Coltram proffers that K.'s charter to this effect. He has
also confirmations by Kings Eichard, John, and Henry the K.'s
father. That the site of the Priory of Carlisle was the demesne of
K. Henry senior, who founded the same in pure almoigne there now

spawn, and likewise of the young fry going down to the sea.
Therefore the whole county, knights and freeholders, unanimously
determined that from Michaelmas to St Andrew's day, no net shall
be drawn or placed at weirs, pools, or mills, or mill pools, and that
none fish in the above or any other waters in the county, with nets

Also that from the feast of the apostles Philip and James till the
Nativity of St John Baptist, no net or ' wile ' or ' borache ' shall
be placed at pools or mills or mill pools in said waters, nor any net
placed at weirs, save by the conservators hereafter appointed, and
the meshes shall be wide enough to let the salmon fry through, viz.,
of four thumbs' length. It is provided also that so often as any fisher
or miller, or other person, infringes this provision and is convicted,
he shall be sent to the K.'s prison and not repledged, unless by con-
sent of the conservators.
The jurors likewise attest that Thomas de Moltone of Gilleslaunde,
as his ancestors have done from time immemorial, takes fines from
all illegal nets in the water of Edene at a place called Pell . . . urg,
by view of knights and others appointed to the custody of the
waters ; but if the K.'s bailiffs have arrived, then the judgments per-

It is also provided that all 'boraches' at mills on said waters
shall henceforth be removed, under forfeiture to the K. of 40s. by

in these waters than three small nets by custom, the meshes whereof,
with a knot, should be of three thumbs' length, for catching lampreys ;
and none should fish with these except from the Feast of St Andrew
till the quinzaine next before the Feast of St John Baptist. The K.,
in his castle of Carlisle, shall have one ; the citizens of Carlisle another

[m. 15, jf Dyonisia de Bechefed complains that Eoger de lahou, William y/
dorso.] de Swethoppe, John his brother, Walter de Swethoppe, and others,
when she was on the moor of Mildeburne on Monday next before the
Feast of St Bartholomew, in the 56th year of K. H[enry], on the royal
way there near Opintele bridge, instigated by the said Walter de
Swethoppe, carried her off vi et armis to the liberty of Eedisdale, to a
place called Ilishache, where Walter was seneschal, where they kept
her that night, to compel her to take Eichard his son for her husband,
and threatening, unless she consented, to carry her off to Scotland for
ever. And as she utterly refused, they carried her off to Gedeworth
in Scotland, and detained her there for a day and night, till she was
rescued by Master John de Pampingham her uncle, and other friends.
But she dared not return to England for fear of Eoger and the others,
until she and her friends agreed with one William son of Ealph, chief
forester of Eedesdale, for 10/., to conduct her safely through his lord's
territory to England. When they had reached Hyrdbotil, Walter de
Swethoppe caused them to be attached by the constable of the castle,
to find two pledges to answer in the court of Hyrdbotil why she had
entered his lord's liberty vi et armis in contempt. And as she did
not appear there to answer to the trespass, her pledges were amerced
in 10/., which she paid. She claims damages of 200/.
The defendants plead that they should not answer, as she appealed
them of a felony in the county for said trespass, of which they were
acquitted; and being asked if they had anything to say to quash the
present accusation ? said No, but referred to the records, where it
appeared that she appealed them of an almost similar trespass, on
Sunday next after the Assumption of the Blessed Mary, place and
year aforesaid, when they were accused of robbing her of a horse, a
44 CALENDAR OF DOCUMENTS
Edward I. saddle, a robe of ' bleuetto,' value 405. ; but she deserted the appeal
before the justices, when solemuly called, wherefore that appeal is
1278-79. dismissed, and she and her pledges in amercement. In the present
Jan. 20. case, the Court decides that Eoger and the others except Walter, are
convicted as without defence and are sent to gaol. And Dyonisia
y recovers damages taxed at [ ]. The aforesaid Walter being
asked for his defence, put himself on the country.
A jury from both sides of Coket, find that when Dyonisia was
returning from Newcastle where she had been in a plea before Master
Eoger de Seton, the aforesaid parties met her and her uncle Master
Jolm Pampisham on Mildeburne moss, and vi et armis abducted her
at Illesale, in the liberty of Redesdale, and carried her to Gedeworthe
to compel her to marry Kichard, till she was rescued by her friends.
That after her abduction her said uncle went to Walter de Swethoppe
and told him what had happened, asking amends. And he dis-
avowed the trespass and said he would see amends made, if shewn
how. Wherefore the jury acquit him of instigation or counsel. As
to his attaching her at Hyrbotil, and the loss of the lOZ., they find
that she was rescued at Gedeworthe in Scotland, and being under the
K. of Scotland's peace, appealed the above Eoger and others in his
court, by judgment of which they were acquitted. But Walter for
attaching her and taking the 10/. is committed to gaol, and she re-
covers damages taxed at [ ].
[Here the record ends, but in the duplicate roll of John de Metyng-
ham, it appears that the defendants made a fine of 20 marks for
the plaintiff's damages, and for the trespass 100s.]

widow of Eobert de Eos, are in the K.'s gift, and not yet married ;
except one of the heirs of Thomas de Pontechope, whom Eustace de
Gurlay married without leave of Eoger de Coyners, her guardian on
the K.'s behalf. Alienora de Balliol is marriageable, and her lauds
are worth 100 marks yearly. And Isabella de Merley is married, by
what warrant is unknown. The sheriff ordered to present her ; her
land is worth 100/. yearly.
jf Purprestures. Three carucates of land in England were occu-
pied in the time of William, King of Scotland, grandfather of Alexander
now King, near Carham, by Bernard de Haudene and Aymer his sou,
which should belong to the Prior of Kirkeham by grant of Walter le
Schek [Espec ?], Eobert de Eos's ancestor. It is worth 20s. yearly.

fellows, in his castle of Prudhoe and at Hyrbotel, and giving him
letters of conduct and protection, and appointing one Alexander of

victed of larceny, and to one William of Inhou a robber ; (9) and for
having de novo taken ' Thourtol' within his liberty from the K.'s men;

Jan. 20. was any such, he renounces it for himself and his heirs in jycrpetuum ;

Simon of Krokedale, he was acquitted by a jury and died at the K.'s
peace ; as to Eoben of Stanhus, he was indicted and arrested in his
liberty for simple larceny, and he let him go on pledges till his gaol
delivery ; and as he escaped, he took 12 marks from his pledges ; as
to Eanulph the vicar of Alnetone's nephew, he trespassed in his forest
and was attached at his court, and not appearing, his bailiffs took
money from his pledges. And as he is not culpable of the trespasses
charged, he places himself on the country, saving to himself benefit
from the time of K. H[enry], when these things were done.
A jury from both sides of Coket, both of those who were jurors
before the aforesaid G[eoffry] and P[hilip], and of those now chosen

Eichard Ker and the rest say that the custom of the country is
after the ninth hour of day on All Saints' day, it is an open time,
and lawful for anyone to feed his avers in unfenced meadows, and
they came after that hour and fed the avers along with those of John
then in the meadow. John says they came before the said hour.
The jury find that the said Eichard and others, except one,
forcibly rescued the avers, and beat and evil-entreated one John Horn, v
and one Wytyug Godessun, John's men, and also that the meadow
is his separable pasture, and not common. They confine Eichard

1279. Bartholomew Prat claims 10/. of rent [in Haluton ?] against
[m. 1,] William de Swyneburne, wherein Reginald Prat his grandfather,
whose heir he is, was seised. They agree by leave of court and
William gives the plaintiff 40 marks.
[m. 1, The jury inquires if John Cumyn senior, brother of John Cumyn
dorso.] junior, John de Teket [and seven other persons], disseised John
Cumyn junior of his freehold in Thornetou juxta Symunde-
burn. John de Teket says after the death of Sir John Cumyn,
father of these brothers, he as the K. of Scotland's bailiff and
escheator in Tyndale, took the same with Sir John's other lands, in
the K.'s hand, and afterwards delivered them under the K.'s writ to
John Cumyn senior, his son and heir, who took, and is in, seisin.
John Cumyn junior is a minor. Agreed between the brothers that
John Cumyn senior gives the younger John 20/. of land in the
manor of Thorutone in tenancy till the latter is 21 years of age.
He also will pay him 200 marks at Thorntone, in four equal sums at
Pentecost next, Martinmas thereafter, and at Pentecost and Martin-
mas of the succeeding year. Which 200 marks by consent of Sirs
John Cumyn senior and Robert de Rosse, shall be kept by Sir James
de Byrun for the younger brother's use, with the issues of the land,
till his majority ; when Sir James shall answer for both money and
issues to Sirs John Cumyn senior and Robert de Rosse or their heirs,
and on failure, may be distrained on his lands in England and
Scotland. On the younger brother attaining majority, and discharg-
ing his elder brother of all claims on their father's lands, he shall be
enfeoffed in the 20/. land in Thornetone, to be held by him and the
heirs of his body for the quarter of a knight's fee. If he refuses, he
shall forfeit his right, and the writings in neutral hands shall be
delivered to the elder brother with the money aforesaid ; saving
only two charters given to John Cumyn junior by his father con-
cerning Thornetone manor, which shall be delivered to himself. If
the younger die in minority without heir of his body, Robert Cumyn
his uterine brother, shall have the lands and money above provided on
the same conditions in omnibus. If Robert die without heir of his body,
the 20/. land shall revert to John Cumyn senior and his heirs. And
the 200 marks shall go to Robert's next friends and executors. John
Cumyn senior shall be bound also to pay Alicia, Robert's sister, if then
unmarried, for her marriage, the value of the said 20/. of land, viz., for
each markland 10 marks, on her discharging him of all claim on her
brother Robert's lands. If Alicia is married at Robert's death the
said John or his heirs shall not be bound to pay her any sum.

old demesne, says that his ancestors held the same, ' for time beyond
' memory,' of the K. of Scotland's ancestors by service of being his
foresters in Tyndale forest ; and thus he claims by said tenure only,
and does not wish to implead the K., but leaves the matter to him,
and asks his special grace therein. This ylea referred to the K. and
his Council accordingly.
The Prior of Hexham answers to the K. of Scots in a plea why in
disinheritance of that K. and injury of his liberty and regality of
Tyndale, he impleaded Robert and Alan de "Veteripont the K.'s men,
before the K. of England's justices itinerant in Cumberland and
Westmoreland, and still impleads them before that K.'s justices in
York, for trespasses in Tyndale, as the K. of Scotland never refused
the Prior a writ from his chancery according to English law ;
whereby Thomas de Fisburne the K.'s procurator asserts he is
damaged to the extent of 1000/. The Prior admits the fact, but says
when the K. of England's writ was obtained, the manor of
Aldenestone where the trespass occurred was in the K. of England's
hand, and thus he could have no remedy otherwise, and offers to
prove this by the record and rolls of the latter's justices, at his own
peril. Is granted a day for this on the morrow of Epiphany, when
he appears and fails to produce his evidence, as the English justices
had remitted the matter to the K. of England, who had signified his
pleasure to the K. of Scots ; wherefore the Prior averred it was
unnecessary for him to produce any enrolment. The procurator of
the K. of Scots asks judgment as the Prior has failed to testify the
Court. [Some words lost.]

they put him in prison, where he still is, and will remain till the

Scotland] obligatory letter. Wherefore he beseeches the K. most
urgently for the service done by his late father to the K.'s father,
to aid him, as he knows for truth, he will never recover his money or
his liberty otherwise. Implores the K., for Jesus Christ's sake, to
come to his assistance, as he has neither hope, nor aid, nor succour
elsewhere. [No place or date.] [Tower Miscellaneous Bolls, A^o. *f ^.]

him, and having taken him with his feet tied under the belly of a
sumpter horse into Scotland, robbed him of his goods, and at the end
of eight days severely wounded him and left him for dead about mid-
night in the forest of Selkirk. Meanwhile, Beatrix de Witfeld and her
son Eobert cousins of said malefactors, forcibly entered his church of
Witfeld, have hitherto kept possession of the same, and are wasting
its fruits. Wherefore the Bishop of Durham excommunicated Beatrix
and Eobert by name. Under which they have obstinately remained for
fourteen years and more. And as the said church is in Tindale within
the K. of Scotland's liberty, and these malefactors are cousins of
William Eraser, his Chancellor, the rector can get no justice of
them. Nor does that King wish them justified by the secular
arm, though the K. of England has sent him letters and mandates.
These things are public and notorious among the clergy and
people through the whole diocese of Durham.

Edward I. [The document, very methodically arranged year by year with
— — marginal dates, begins with 904, the latest marginal date being 1221,
1291. though it closes with two documents of later date, viz., the obligation
lilay 20. by Alexander 11. and his magnates to keep the peace concluded with
Henry TIL at York in 1237, in presence of the Cardinal Legate Otto,
and the letter by Alexander and his nobles to Pope Innocent [IV.]'
subjecting themselves to papal censure by the hands of any suffragan
of Canterbury if they violate their oaths. These are Nos. 1654, 1655,
of Vol. I. of the present Calendar, and are not earlier in date than
A.D. 1244.]
[Extracts.]
1069 : — Cumbria now consists of the bishoprics of Carlisle, Glas-
gow, and Whitherne, and moreover, from the bishopric of Carlisle as
far as the river Dunde, &c. [Doon ?].
1138 : — K. David wasted and occupied almost all Northumbria,
and seized Cumbria, Carlisle, New Castle, and other towns excepting
Bamburgh, when Stephen compelled him to return to his own land,
and followed him to Roxburgh. But in summer David again crossed
the Tees, when the English met him at Cuton more, and fuught the
battle called ' Standard,' with great slaughter of the Scots and many
prisoners.
1152: — Henry the Earl, his son, died at Carlisle on the ides of June.
1153 : — K. David, beyond all his ancestors the most noble founder
of monasteries, died at Carlisle, 9th of the ides of June. While his
body was borne to Dunfermline, the Scottish sea smoothed its waves,
but when it left the beach they began to swell again,
1158 : — Henry II. led his army to Toulouse, On his return he
knighted Malcolm K. of Scotland at Tours (Turonis). This Henry
took Carlisle from Malcolm.
1174: — William K. of Scotland besieged Carlisle, but was man-
fully repulsed by the citizens. Soon after, he was taken prisoner at
Alnwick on the ides of July, verifying as it seemed, the prophecy of
Merlin, ' that a curb forged in the heart of Brittany shall be put in
his jaws,' meaning by this, Richmond Castle, held by the Armorican
princes, where he was imprisoned.
1201 : — The Scottish magnates swore fealty to Alexander, son of
K. William, John, Cardinal legate from Pope Innocent [III.] held
a Council at Perth in Scotland.
1216 : — John K, of Eucland died while war was rising all around.
Alexander, K. of Scots, besieged Carlisle, and the citizens deli-
vered it to to him as John had done them much harm. Shortly after
he gained the town and citadel by force. [The extracts close with the
marriage of Alexander II. to Johanna of England about midsummer

This instrument differs in several points from the Great Koll. The
names of the Competitors and their order vary, and the narrative is much

There is also a curious miscalculation in the day of the month. The day
on which the submission of the Competitors was executed, is said in that
document to have been Tuesday next after the Ascension, which, according
to the calculations in Sir Harris Nicolas and Mr Bond's works, was
Tuesday the 5th of June, Ascension Day this year falling on Thursday 31st

John the King's grandfather — after him William his son and heir, who
dying childless the right descended to Eobert his brother. From him to
Gilbert as his son and heir ; and from Gilbert to another Gilbert as his
son and heir ; and from him to his son and heir the plaintiff. Eobert
and Christiana say that K. John by charter gave the vills of Gamelsby
and Glassanby to Odard de Hodalmia (who was the grandfather of
Christiana his heiress), for his homage and service, and paying 2 marks
yearly for cornage^ and produce the charter. Henry rejoins that K.
John had nothing in the manor of Glassanby but a ward, wherefore
they cannot disguise the business by the K.'s charter. The charter
being viewed in court, which attests the gift, Henry is told he must
sue the King if he sees fit. [m. 26.]

The attestation by Andrew son of the late William de Tang,
clerk of the diocese of York and apostolic notary, certifies, that he
was present during the execution of the several instruments of
homage and fealty, duly executed by the varions persons and
communities named, to which their several seals are appended,
and has recorded them ' de verbo in verbum ' with his own hand
on these thirty-five jjieces of parchment sewn together, and after
collating them carefully with Sir Robert de Osbaldewyk chap-
lain, and Thomas de Welleburne clerk, has made certain specified
corrections, and verified the whole both at the * sutures ' and at
the end by his accustomed notarial sign. [ni. 35.] [Tower Mis.

Edward L Written in a large text hand and in very fine condition, with the excep-
tion of the first two membranes, which are frayed and defaced at one side.
-.nnc Each homage begins with an elegant capital letter. There are two other
copies ; one. No. 88, is understood to be that from which Prynne made his
extracts ; the other, No. 90, originally consisting of 41 membranes, accord-
ing to the notarial certificate (though one has been since lost), has been the
most ornamented, and possibly the principal. It has been, however, more
damaged than the other two. All are in the same handwriting.

Edward T. his allies, and the condition as to exchange of prisoners. He refuses to
include John de Balliol whom the French envoys call ' IC. of Scots ' or
1298. his p8ople, in the truce, because before the first truce and ever since,' the
-Tune 6-15. land of Scotland was and is in his property and possession, and he is
seised of the homages and fealties of the prelates, earl's, barons
knights, and other nobles, and the entire communities and in'habitants
of said land ; nor were they named, as the other allies of France were
in the proposals for a truce. If Sir John de Balliol casually made
an alliance with the K. of France, which is not admitted, he had no
power to do so, as he was in homage to the K. of England. ' Therefore
as kings and princes should above all others keep faith, loyalty and
truth, the K. begs that no aid be given to the Scots. And'especially as
some Scottish knights and others his liegemen and of his household
who before and after the time of truce were in his service with banners'
displayed, against the K. of France, and have since deserted him he
requests that no help or countenance be given them, under the threat
that negotiations will be broken off. To shew the strength of his ca,se
four public instruments are here recited at length (in Latin) -—(n'
The homage of John de Balliol K. of Scotland, dated Newcastle 2fifb

Edwakd I. of France would observe the truce in all points. The latter afterwards
assigned Sunday eight days after the Sunday following, viz., loth
1298. June, at Chateau Thierry (Castrum Terricum), for the English envoys'
hearino- his deliverance or response to their propositions ; and they
havinc^ requested restitution of their original letters, Master Eobert
informed them, these should be delivered on the day of conference.
On said day, viz., 17th of the kalends of July, the English envoys arriv-
ino- at Chateau Thierry as appointed, and finding the K, of France not
there but at the monastery of Consiac in the diocese of Soissons, at
three leagues' distance, followed him there ; when in presence of his
Council, he announced to them by Master Eobert, that he would
observe the truce in all points. But touching the question of the
Scots, he would send his own envoys with his response. In reply to
the English envoys' requests for restoration of their letters and
delivery of prisoners, the K. replied that the former was granted,
and as to the latter, he should reply by his own envoys. Done at
Consiac before Sir Charles count of Aujou brother of the K of France
[and others].

Edwaed T. presented the K.'s letters to the Pope without delay, as commanded.
Next day the Popei sent for him, and said he had read with much
[1300 ?] pleasure the K.'s courteous and plain statement of his right to Scot-
land, ' which had done his heart good.' The writer replied that the
K. so trusted in his Holiness's justice that he wished him to know
his right in all points. The Pope then made friar William de
Geynesboregbe again rehearse the matter before him ; and said theK.
did well to trust to him, as now he could save the lordship of Scotland
to the English Crown. He farther told him openly before many
that the K. was the crowned head he loved most (' qe vous f ustes le
homme dumond qe portast coroune qil plus ama ') ; and if the letters
told truth as he believed, no man could oust the K. from the
Seignory of Scotland. As some thought there was in the papal
registers information important to the K., he got friar William de
Geynesboregbe, who is more ' prive ' about the court than himself, to
procure him a sight of these, and has found in three places valuable
matter. So soon as he had it in writing he had it sealed ; and then
showed the Cardinals what he had found, who all said it was enough,
as to-raorrow would witness. He will send transcripts to the K,
but retains the sealed letter, which he dare not trust to a soul for
fear of loss. The Pope had remarked his long stay, and he replied
he was at his pleasure. The Pope said the K.'s affairs could not
be furthered till he had laid them before a Consistory — that the writer
had seen how he often could not attend to business for weakness, and
recommended him to return home, leaving friar William de Geynes-
boregbe to represent the K. Norman French.

1223. The writer [the constable of Berwick ?], informs the K. that
as the 200/. ordered before his departure, did not reach him till 28th
August, a mutiny arose on the 30th among the foot crossbowmen
and archers in the garrison, joined by some of the men-at-arms of
Sir Rauf le fiz Michiel who was with them in Gascony, and is their
leader and ' mestre abettour ' in all riots. Though they swore if any
man-at-arms approached the 'palys,' they would kill his horse and
cut off his head, he armed and mounted his people and rode up the
great street, which they were blocking to prevent the guard being
mounted. When they saw him, they let him pass, but molested his
people vilely on returning. He placed two men-at-arms at each
post, and consulted Sir Walter de Teye, who said he could not blame
the mutineers, for when the Earls of England were in the town, they
had only got 3 days' pay, and were now a month in arrear. So the
writer and his people remained on guard at the 'palis ' all night, and
before sunrise Sir John de Seytone came with 4 ' vallettes ' to his
aid. That morning he caused Sir Walter to proclaim that all the
men-at-arms and others should meet them at St Nicholas's church.
And there, in presence of Sir Peres de Maulee, Sir Robert his
brother, and Sir Walter, he asked each gentleman by name, knight or
esquire, if he would mount guard. All replied that they would
willingly, and that they had no concern in the mutiny of the foot,
which they disavowed. Whereon the latter took counsel and agreed
to mount guard till Friday thereafter, and if they got no money, then
they would leave the town. That day the 200/. arrived, and on
Thursday morning he counted it before the sheriff of Ncrthimber-

to the garrison of Berwick and none other, in terms of his own letter
from the K. saying ' We send you 200/. for your garrison ; ' and as
the Roxburgh and Jede worth men were not in Berwick, they should
not have a penny of what was sent for him and his men. The
writer replied that the K. always treated Roxburgh, Jeddeworth, and
Berwick as one, and shewed his letters of this year Sir Walter
replied that the K. had done ill in sending him such express letters,
he being only a lay man, and begs the K, to send him nothing unless
it distinctly shews what he is to do. The writer has suffered evil
and annoyance through want of this, for in place of Sir Walter
getting only 14/. 14s., he has taken 36/. from him, whereby he has
nothing to pay his own people. He has written about this to the
Bishop, and has received a reply this Tuesday, a transcript of which
he encloses. As to William de la Chambre's white pied horse,
valued at 10 marks, he knows not whether it was lost in the K.'s
service, or given, or sold. Written at Berwick, 14th September.

Scots who were in Galloway had retreated towards Nithsdale, and
this Sunday last past were at ' les Kellys,' and would be on Monday
after at Glencarn, but whither from thence they would ' draw,' he
did not certify him. Whereon he sent the news at once to all the K.'s
garrisons, that they should be careful of the K.'s ordinances and
honour as lately commanded, by God's aid. He ought to have his
money from one day to another, and will inform the K. of what
news he hears. His spy told him that these Scots heard that ' my
lord your son ' was on pilgrimage to St Ninian (Rineyan), and they
removed the image [of the saiut(?)] to New Abbey, and on the next
morning they hoped to find it, and it had gone back to St Ninian !

Edward I. betweeu himself, the sheriff of Eoxburgh and Sir Richard his brother,
and Sir Alexander de Balliol, that they should attack at three points
[1301.] the moor of Alkirk, in which some robbers infesting the county of
Eoxburgh had taken refuge. While he and his foresters were on their
march, he found them in a house, whence they fled for a wood, but he
took them all, dead or alive. Eeturning to the house of the resetter,
he took the goods and avers there and drove them off. The sheriff of
Eoxburgh met him mid- way and demanded them, As he wished to
avoid strife he gave up the beasts, but kept the prisoners till he
knew the K.'s will. The foresters pray the K. for the goods of the
resetter, as others have what they can gain on the enemy.
Eecommends the K. to grant this, as they have aided him loyally
and will be encouraged to do so again. Written at Melros, 23rd

Circa 1227. Eobert Hastang' to the K. Under an agreement between
Sept. 23. Sir Hugh de Audeleye, himself, and his brother, for pursuing robbers
and malefactors in the county of Eoxburgh, they attacked a wood
which was one of their greatest retreats in the country, and while Sir
Hugh and his foresters were coming to meet himself and his brother,
the former came on 12 most notorious thieves who had been indicted
before the writer, took them all, dead or alive, except one who
escaped, and carried the survivors and the stolen cattle they had,
out of the county to his own bailliary. When challenged by the
writer to deliver the thieves to Eoxburgh castle and the cattle as the
K.'s escheat, he gave up a part of the ' bestial' and carried the thieves
and the rest of it, either to the prison of Berwick or Baumburgh, he
does not know which. Asks the K. whether Sir Hugli or himself is
to have thera, as the former claims them and their ransom as
prisoners of war, under the K.'s grant of what he can gain upon the
enemy ; whereas they are common and notorious thieves, and have
made such riot in the county that the people told him they expected
him to clear them out. Their names are Henry del Hepe, Thomas
le filz Margarete, and one John del Hepe, and others. Begs the K.
to write to Sir Hugh to return them to Eoxburgh prison, or he will

bought ' cordes ' and iron, and despatched the vessel ' this Friday,'

got ready for the K. after arriving at Berwick. He has delivered
to Sir Hugh de Audeley to strengthen the Forest, 10 men-at-arms
and 100 foot from Berwick, 10 men-at-arms and 20 foot from
Eoxburgh ; and as Sir Thomas de Grey is no longer at Ayr with
Earl Patrick, as he learns, he has told him to stay with his 'quart' with
Sir Hugh, who has now in all 50 men-at-arms, with 6 from the sheriff
of Peebles. He has also spoken with the sheriff of Eoxburgh, the

the other and also the country. Sir Alexander de Balliol tells him
1301. whenever the enemy issue from Galloway, he will know two days
before, and will warn theK. by two or three messengers of what road
they take, and so will the others. He has divided 200^. of the fine
made by Newcastle for the fifteenth, among the garrisons of Berwick,
Eoxburgh, Gedeworth, and the Forest, to his best judgment, for their
15 days' wages. Hopes to be with the K. this Tuesday, and
would have come sooner, but for the late arrival of the money, on
which the whole force of the Forest depended. He has not seen the
sheriff of Peebles, who neither came nor sent an excuse, but he has
told the other knights to give him the K.'s commands. If he himself
had not come, all the garrisons on this side would have been scattered
for want. The K.'s money from Exchequer came to Berwick on
St Michael's eve at vespers, but not so much as he expected and
should have had. This money he will bring with him. He has
informed Sir John de Drokenesford as to the K.'s provisions at
Berwick, i.e., how much has come from each county, and its con-
dition, and charged him to collect as much as he can everywhere,
' for your business in Scotland depends much on " vivres." ' Has
appointed Alexander le Convers to aid therein. He had ordered the
sheriff of Northumberland to send him 12 carpenters and 12
' maszons ' to Berwick whom he might forward to the K. But has
not yet got one. Written at Eoxburgh, the last day of September, in

and all the knights, people, men, and others of Kil and Conighame,
who are at his peace. They inform him that on Tuesday, 3rd
October, the Scots were in Carrick before the castle of Turnebyrs,
with 400 men-at-arms and ' petail ' enough, to damage it as much as
they could ; and within these eight days wished to attack Ayr castle
and injure the country at the K.'s peace. Wherefore they beg the
K. to send succours quickly, for the Scots are in such force that they
and the other loyalists there cannot withstand them. They have
heard nothing from Earl Patrick, to whom they understand the K.
has given the keeping of the country ; at which they wonder much.

said Nicholas holds that burgage which was Ealph Phelipe's in
Briggate street of Berwick, by extent made by the English burgesses
of said town, viz., 4 marks per annum ; also a vacant place on ' le
Nesse' which was the Bishop of Moray's, by same extent, 3s. per

which was Henry of Stirling's on 'le Nesse,' extended ut supra
at 2 marks per annum ; and know of no more held by him. They
say that these 40 acres between the town and the fosse were held
in the late King Alexander's time by divers burgesses of Berwick
freely without any reddendum., as pertinent of their burgages, and
when said burgh was founded they were given to the burgesses to
build, if any wished to do so, and there are streets in said ground

other place within or without their town where they can have a

acres, whereon all the burgesses both small and great have common
pasture in open time by use and wont, and they are divided in small

seised before the war, of lands then taken in the K.'s hand, and not
to hinder (forbarrer) the writ of mortancestre concerning the death
of people 30 or 40 years ago, and the people of these parts dislike

The Treasurer having been given to understand that when Hugh
de Cressingham left Berwick to go to Stirling castle, all his goods
were left at Berwick with Eobert Heron rector of Forde, and Hugh
de Eoubiri, and immediately after his death at Stirling, 400 marks of
the K.'s money were sent by them to Werkworth castle and delivered
to William de Toggesdene the constable, and also 48/. in a pouch, as
to which last there is a dispute between Eobert and Hugh, William
was therefore ordered to appear at York before the Barons on the
morrow of Michaelmas. On which day he appeared, and stated on
oath that about 8 days after Hugh's death at Stirling, Hugh de
Eoubiri with his grooms only, brought two ' bulgia ' covered with
hide, and a coffer for harness sealed and locked, and asked him to
keep them ; wherein it was estimated there were 300/., but the
witness was informed by others there were 400/. They seemed to be
of great weight, for William his son carried them from the great
chamber of the castle to an adjoining closet ; where they remained
for 8 days, till Hugh de Eoubiri and his grooms came and took them
away, whither he knew not, but believed it was to Durham. The
Treasurer and Barons wishing to be better informed, resolved that
Eobert and Hugh should appear before them at York, the former on
Thursday before S. Edmund K. and martyr's day [19th November],
the latter on the morrow of St Clement [24th November], and writs
for important business were accordingly issued. Eobert, sworn and
examined, said he was appointed to keep the K.'s coket at Berwick-

Edward I. on-Tweed, and received from the issues thereof 281/. For fear of
the Scots who had begun to rise against the K., and had killed the
1304. sheriff of Lanark, he, with Hugh de Eoubiri's advice, put the money
in two leather bags and two pouches, and sent them to Werkeworth
castle about the F. of the Assumption of the B. Mary [August 15]
before Hugh de Cressinghara's death ; and there in person delivered
them to Hugh de Roubiri, who placed them in the treasury of the
castle under safe custody of William de Toggesden the constable.
After Cressingham's death, on Wednesday after the Nativity of the
Virgin following, he (Robert) returned to Scotland in company of the
barons who went in aid of the K. to put down the Scots, and received
at Durham from Hugh the foresaid bags and money, whereof he
delivered 100/. to Walter de Agmondesham for the K.'s affairs, and
retained another 100/. till the Treasurer arrived, when he paid this
sum at York by tallies. As to the remaining 81/., he says he has
had none of it since. Asked if any of Hugh de Cressingham's
money or goods came into his hands ? says No. Asked if any such
came to Hugh de Eoubiri's hands ? says, That he has heard that
Cressingham had goods at the vill of Oerde which he held in lease,
and Hugh de Roubiri drove them off after his death, how much he
knows not. Asked if he brought or deposited any coti'er at Werke-
worth or saw Hugh de Roubiri do so ? says No. Hugh de Roubiri
appeared on his day, and deponed on oath that about the Gule of
August in the year of Cressingham's death, at Robert Heron's
request, he received from him in Werkeworth castle, two leather bags
containing he believed 200/. or 300/., but knew not the exact sum,
and likewise a pouch of canvas (or two) tied together by a strap,
containing he understood about 35 marks. Immediately after
Cressingham's death, for fear of the Scots, he carried the two leather
bags and money to Durham castle, and afterwards delivered them to
Robert when demanded. The two canvas pouches and money, with
some jewels of his own, he stowed inside of a sack of his own wool
at Werkeworth castle, and never saw the wool, silver, or jewels
again ; for the wool was sold, and the valuables and money removed by
the keepers of the castle, and Robert fitz Roger's men, when he came
there. Asked if he or Robert Heron brought a coffer for harness to
Werkeworth before or after Cressingham's death and delivered it to
be kept there ? said No. Asked if any of Cressingham's other goods
reached his hands ? says No ; but he himself delivered 40s. to one
William de Stafford, Cressingham's bailiff in Scotland, to buy oxen
for him, and the bailiff gave him to understand that 6 oxen were
thus bought and lent to Cressingham at his manor of Orde ; after
whose death he took them away by the bailiffs order. That these
were not Cressingham's property, unless in loan. [^Exchequer, Q. B.

"Walter de Limdy, knights ; Master Malcolm de Gatemilk, Thomas
Skayre, John de Ambercrumby, Simon de Horok, Walter de Loghy,
and Robert de Horok, jurors; who find that Alexander K. of Scotland
father of the late K. Alexander, gave to Richard de Beaumont
Isabella's ancestor, and his heirs, the barony of Crail (Caral) with its
pertinents, by charter, wherein was contained a right of fishing or
toll of 8d. from each last of herrings ; and as some bailiffs wished to
reckon salt herrings, to the merchants' damage, they made a fine to
assess the quantity of tonnage in each ship by estimate of good men,
which is now called ' Caan.' The said Richard pledged the manor
to Walter then Steward of Scotland, who advanced him money for
his journey to the Holy Land, and enjoyed the ' Caan ' peacefully
while he held the barony. After Richard and Walter's death, the
barony fell into the late K. Alexander's hand, and was recovered
from him by Walter's executors till the end of the lease. They say
' expressly ' that K. Alexander father of the late King retained no
part of said ' Caan.' The barony then remained in the late K.
Alexander's hands for his life, as no sufficient heir appeared. John
de Balliol then K., gave the barony and pertinents to Isabella as
heir of Richard. One Theobald, Isabella's bailiff, leased the ' Caan '
to Sir John de Cambhou for a term, who paid the rent for a year,
wliereon the said John K. of Scotland at the suggestion of some who
said that it belonged to him, took possession of the ' Caan ' at
Candlemas 1295-96, drew the issues, and besides, at Easter following
took the whole barony of Crail in his hands on account of the war,
while Isabella for same reason sent no one to claim her ' Caan' ; and
so K. John remained in possession till K. Edward recovered Scotland,

had been lately taken prisoner forcibly against his will by William
leWaleys; that he escaped once from William for 2 leagues, but
was followed and brought back by some armed accomplices of
William's, who was firmly resolved to kill him for his flight ; that
he escaped another time from said William for 3 leagues or more and
was again brought back a prisoner by force with the greatest violence
and hardly avoided death at William's hands, had not some accom-
plices of William entreated for him ; whereon he was told if he
tried to get away a third time he should lose his life. Thus it
appears he remained with William through fear of death and not of
his own will. The Earl, Sir Malcolm, and some of the others append

why he concealed the said confederacy with Eobert de Bras on the

forgotten that league, and therefore did not mention it. (4) Being

[1307.] 1926. To some high official. The writer gives him the news of his
May 15. neighbourhood. He hears that Sir Eobert de Brus never had the
good will of his own followers or the people at large or even half of
them so much with him as now ; and it now first appears that he has
right, and God is openly for him, as he has destroyed all the K.'s
power both among the English and the Scots, and the English force
is in retreat to its own country not to return. And they firmly
believe by the encouragement of the false preacliers who come from
the host that Sir Eobert de Bruys will now have his will. And
these preachers are such as have been attached before the Guardian
and the justices as abettors of war, and are at present freed on
mainprise and carry themselves worse than before, boasting in their
malice and deceiving the people thus by their false ' prechement.' Eor
he believes assuredly, as he hears from Sir Eenaud de Chien, Sir
Doncan de Ferendrauth, and Sir Gilbert de Glenkerni, and others
who watch the peace both beyond and on this side of the Mountains,
that if Sir Eobert de Bruys can escape any way ' saun drey tes,' or
towards the parts of Eos (Eoos), he will find them all ready at his
will more entirely than ever, unless the K. will be pleased to send
more men-at-arms to these parts ; for there are many people living
well and loyally at his faith provided the English are in power,
otherwise they see that they must be at the enemies' will through
default of the K. and his Council, as they say. And it would be a
deadly sin to leave them so without protection among enemies.
And may it please God to keep the K.'s life, for ' when we lose
him, which God forbid ' (say they openly), all must be on one side,
or they must die or leave the country with all those who love
the K., if other counsel and aid be not sent them. For these
preachers have told them that they have found a prophecy of Merlin,
how after the death of ' le Eoi Coueytous ' the Scottish people and
the Bretons shall league together, and have the sovereign hand and
their will, and live together in accord till the end of the world. Begs
his correspondent's pleasure in this and all other matters ; and God
keep him. Written at Forfar, 15th May. Noi^man French. [Chan-
