Document 3/311/7 (CDS, ii, no. 1409)
- Description
- Sir Robert Keith prays the king to give him entry to the land of Covington, which he had granted him when he came to his peace. He bought it from two sisters co-heirs, long before he was captured in the war. While he was in prison the king’s servants gave these sisters in exchange, to one, 6 marks of land in the king’s demese of Ratho, to the other, 6 marks of the fermes of the town of Lanark. Their land of Covington is only worth 13 marks 6s. 8d. so the whole profit to him is only 20s. Beyond which the king has his homage and service of a knight and the 12 marks which these sisters hold. Prays the king for the arrears.
