gouernour in place of Androw Murray This Archembald Douglas reysing a mighttie armie of Scottishmen entred with the same into the bordures of Englande so to withdrawe king Edward from the siege of Barwike to defende hys owne landes from brennyng and spoiling But king Edwarde aduertised hereof deuised an other shift for immediatly sending a messenger vnto sir Alexander Seiton captain of the towne he certified him playnly that onlesse hee rendred the town forthwith into his hands both his sonnes whiche hee had with him the one as hostage and the other as prysoner shoulde bee without further delay hanged vpō a gybet there in sight afore his owne face Sir Alexander Seiton herevnto aunswered that as yet the terme of the truce was not expired and therfore desyred the King eyther to obserue the couenauntes or else to deliuer the pledges that he mighte be at his aduauntage But King Edward as saith the Scottish chronicle immediately caused a payre of gallows to bee reysed afore the towne and bothe the sonnes of the sayde syr Alexander to be led thyther to suffer on the same without further respite Sir Alexander Seiton beholdyng that pityfull sighte and weying with himselfe that

trayterously deliuered into the enimies hande that from thenceforth they shoulde be infamed for euer and as for the death of their sonnes it was not to bee accompted a losse for by this kynde of death they shuld win immortall name and leaue to their parentes the high honoure and renoume of faythfull and loyall subiectes Agayne they were yong ynough to begette and bryng 〈◊〉 the newe chyldren where

towne of Barwike from further danger of the enimies force Yet were there sundrie prudent counsellors in the Scottishe armie that for diuers respectes aduised him in no wise to fight with the enemies at that present considering the huge number of practised souldiours whiche they had amongest them and the wante of skilfull warrioures on his syde hauing fewe wyth hym saue young menne and suche as

specially in this place the rather bicause he agreeth with Richard Southwel Robert Auesburie and other of our English writers concerning this yeere in whiche this battell was fought but where the same Boetius sayth that it was fought on Magdalen day Richarde Southwell Robert Auesburie Thomas Wall ▪ and diuers other affirme that it was foughte the xix of Iuly being Saint Margarets turn But now to proceede The place where this battell was striken called Halidown hill Immediately vppon this ouerthrowe of the Scottish power Alexander Seyton and Patrick Dunbar captaynes of Barwicke The towne of Barwike yeelded to King Edward on S. Margarets day as R. Southwell hath despayring of all support yeelded the towne to King Edward with condition to haue their liues and goodes saued and to become subiects vnto King Edward Herevpon when they had receyued their othes Patricke Dunbar was commaunded by K.

downe when he sawe he was not able to defend it against the English power comming towards hym King Edwarde hauing thus accomplished hys desyre returned backe into Englande leauing behynde hym wyth the Ballyoll Richard Talbot manye greate Lordes of Englande amongest whom as chiefe was Rycharde Talbot that vsyng the aduice and councell of them hee might rule the Realme of Scotlande as should he thought expedient Edwarde Ballyoll herevppon wente thorough all the boundes of Scotlande placing garnysons of Englishmen in moste part of all the strengthes and castels of the realme Al the fortresses of Scotlād in the Balliols landes fiue only except for he had them al at his commandement fiue of them onely excepted whyche were kepte by suche Scottishmen as woulde not renounce their allegiance promised to king Dauid For Dounbryton was kepte by Malcolme Flemmyng of Cummirnalde Lochlevyn by Alane of Vepount The Castell of Kyldrummy by Christine Bruce And Vrquharte by Roberte Lawder The uyle of Lowdoun a strong thyng of so small a compasse was in the keeping of one Iohn Thomson These Capitaines would by no meanes neyther yeeld themselues nor their fortresses to Edward Ballyol but defend them to the vtterance for the behoofe of their soueraine Lord and maister king Dauid The Popes ambassadours not regarded In the meane tyme Philip king of Fraunce laboured to the Pope that he mighte by his authoritie cause the Englishmen to surceasse from further vexing the Scottes by their cruell inuasions made into their countrey But when the Popes ambassadours came aboute this matter into Englande they were so little regarded that they could not get licence to declare y e message so were they glad to returne without dooing any thing in the matter whereabout they were sent A parliamente a Perth Shortlye after was a Parliamente called at Perthe where Edwarde Ballyoll was confirmed Kyng of Scotlande a greate number of the nobles promising there by solemne othes neuer to moue anye rebellion agaynste him in tymes to come In the meane tyme rose great alter●…ation betwixt Henry Beaumont ●●yfe betwixt Mowbray and Beaumount and Alexander Moubraye for certaine landes in Buchquhane Henry Beaumount claymed those lands by the right of his wyfe that was daughter to the sayd Alexander but the Mowbraye claymed them as heire to his brother After long contention Mowbray hadde the landes adiudged to him by sentence of the Ballyoll by reason wherof Dauid Cumyn Earle of Athole and Richarde Talbot fauouring the cause of Henry Beaumont began to practise suche conspiracies against the Ballyoll that to auoyde further daunger he was glad to repeale the former sentence by him gyuen on the behalfe of Alexander Mowbraye and by newe sentence adiudged the landes vnto Henry Beaumounte for that as was alledged he had maryed the inheritour therof Thus thoroughe puissaunce of the parties the truthe in decydyng of the Controuersye myghte not haue place and also the Ballyoll constrayned to haue the one of them to hys enimyes Not long after this Edward Ballyol came to Rainfrewe and there receyuyng the people into his obeysaunce The castels of Rothsay and Dunnone deliuered to the Ballyoll hadde the keyes of the castell of Rothsaye and Dunnone broughte vnto hym by sir Alane Lyle Sheriffe of Bute Thus didde the Ballyoll encrease in puissaunce by suche confluence of people as daylye submitted them selues vnto hym and hee enryched them liberally wyth landes and goodes still as they came vnto him therby to winne their good willes He soughte by all meanes possible to haue gotten Roberte Stewarde into hys handes Robert Stewarde as the persone whome hee knewe to haue moste ryghte next vnto kyng Dauid to the Crowne of Scotlande but thorough the dyligent forsyghte of hys friendes Thys Roberte Stewarde beeyng aboute the age of fyfteene yeares was conueyed to the castell of Dunbreton where hee was ioyefully receyued by Malcolme Flemyng the Captais The Ballyoll beeyng sore offended that suche Castelles as were kepte by his enimies were so greate an impedimente to hys enterprises by succouring and relieuyng hys aduersaryes to maynteyne warres agaynst him he got togyther an armye Lochleuyn besieged and the nexte yeare layde siege vnto the Castell of Lochlevyn But perceyuyng that thys Castell myghte not bee wonne without long siege he appoynted Syr Iohn Striuelyng to continue the siege wyth a greate power of menne vntill the Castel were yeelded There were lefte also with him Michaell Hereot Dauid Wemis and Richarde Maleville with diuers other These capitaines aduising the place and syte of the Castell lodged themselues within the Churcheyarde of Sainte Serf●… beside Kinrosse makyng Bastyles and other defenses within the same for their more safegarde Within the Castell were two valyant captaynes to defende it Alane Vepont Iames Lamby captains of Lochleuyn the one named Alane Vepount and Iames Lamby Citesins of Saint Androwes The enimies assayd al the means that might be deuised to haue wonne this castel but al was in vayne At length they deuised a subtill sleight wherby to compasse their intent on this wyse They wente aboute to damme vp the mouth of the ryuer where it issueth out of the Loche wyth earth A deuyse to drowne the castell trees and stones that the water beyng so kepte in might ryse to such an heighte that it shoulde ouerflowe the Castell and so drowne all the people wythin it and to cause the Loche to swell more speedyly they tourned the course of dyuers ryuers and brookes in the countrey thereaboutes and broughte them into the same loche It chaunced at the same tyme that sir Iohn Striuelyng capitayne of the siege with a great parte of the armie went vnto Donfermling for deuotion sake to visite the shrine of Saint Margaret sometyme Queene of Scotlande Whereof Alane Vepount then capitayne of the Castell hauyng vnderstanding about midnight prepared three boates and takyng certayn souldiours with hym rowed foorth to the heade of the damme or water and there with such engines as he had deuysed for the purpose assayed to boate thorough and make a hole in the banke or rampier that kepte vp the water which when they had brought to passe they returned quickely agayne to the castell The water hauing once gotten an issue within a whyle ware the hole so large that entryng with more violence it finally brake downe the banke rushed foorth with such an huge stream that it bare downe all afore it drowning vp the bastils and tentes of them that lay at siege there The bastiles and tentes of them that laye at siege drowned and carryed the same with men and all downe into the deepe sea they were so sodenly taken ere they could make any shift to escape Alane Vepount whē the water was fallen to the olde marke issued forth of the castel and setting vpon those that had escaped the daunger of the water slew part of them and put the remnant to flyght Iohn Striuelyng hearing the
