- Description
- W[illiam] and R[obert], bishops of St Andrews and Glasgow, Duncan, earl of Fife, Alexander Comyn of Buchan, constable and justiciar of Scotia, John Comyn and James Stewart of Scotland, Guardians of the realm of Scotland by common council, write to Henry, abbot of Arbroath, Robert Cameron of Baledgarno, David de Betun, knights, and Master Ralph of Dundee, noting that they have established to them all, by inquiry of faithful men of the kingdom that a certain pasture pertains to the land of Scrin, which is called Salmanmore, in the tenement of Panmure (ANG), as it was on the day which their lord, King Alexander, died. And if the position of Christina de Maule may be changed, they ask that the addressees return justice to the same Christina for the pasture which she had on the day which the said king died. They thus command and instruct all the men of the realm to whom these letters shall come that they may answer to the abbot, Robert, David and Master Ralph, or two of them, during the month of the feast of St Michael next.
