LAST of all follow the KNIGHTS TEMPLARS This Order was instituted by Pope Gelasius about the year of our Lord 1120.

Kinnaird of Rossie Sir John Wachop of Nidrie Sir Gerge Monro of Culkairn Lieutenant General Thomas Dalyell The Supreme Court of Judicature about the Property of the Subject is called the Colledge of Justice or the Session which was anciently an ambulatory Court but was settled as it now is by King James the Fifth Anno Christi 1532. to consist of fourteen who are called Senatours of the Colledge of Justice or Lords of Councill and Session and a President to whom are added the Lord Chancellour and four extraordinary Lords who are of the chief Nobility The extraordinary Lords have no Salary and are not obliged to attendance but when they come they have a Vote This Court sits from the first of June till the last of July and from the first of November till Christmas-Eve and from the first of January till the last of February they sit from 9 a clock in the Morning till 12 all the days of the Week except Sunday and Monday There is an Outer House and an Inner In the Outer there is a Bench where one of the Senatours sits a Week and all of them except the President have their turns in it who hears all Causes originally and where the Case is clear he gives Sentence But if it be difficult or if either party desires it he reports it to the rest of the Senatours who either send out their Answer by him or if it be very intricate and the parties or either of them desire it do appoint it to be heard before themselves This is a Court of great dispatch But besides the Judge on the Bench there is a Side-Bar to which one of the Judges comes out weekly by turns as in the former and receives and answers all Petitions and Bills The Inner House where all the rest of the Senatours sit is a Court of great State and Order The Senatours sit in a semicircle in Robes under them sit their Clerks who write the most material heads of all that is pleaded at the Bar where the Pleadings are long and very learned When the Senatours have after all the parties are removed reconsidered their Arguments they give their Sentence and the major Vote carries it Their final Sentence determines the business there lying no Appeal from them onely the Parliament as the Supreme Court may review and repeal their Sentence and they are called Decreets from the Latin Decreta Senatours of the Colledge of Justice Sir James Dalrymple of Stair President Sir John Nubet of Dirleton Sir Thomas Wallace of Craigie

Castlehill Sir Richard Maitland of Pitrichie Sir David Balfour of Forret Sir Thomas Murray Sir James Fowlis of Sir David Falconar of Newton The Law of Scotland is made up of the Municipal and Civil Laws The Municipal consists either of Acts of Parliaments or of the Customes and Practicks of the Colledge of Justice which are held of no less force then Acts of Parliament and where neither of these contradicts the Civil Law the Roman Law is of force This makes our Lawyers generally great Civilians for they goe either to Leiden Poictiers or Bourges and study the Civil Law in which some are learned to a high degree The Law of Scotland is easie and regular by reason of our Registers which are so full that Titles are much more easily cleared here then can be done where those Registers are not which may appear from the following Instances No man can have a Right to any Estate but by his being seised of it which is done by the delivery of Earth and Stone upon which an Instrument is formed called a Sasine and this must be registred within 60 days otherwise it is of no force by which means all secret Conveyances are cut off for if no Sasine be passed upon them or if these be not put in the publick Registers which every one may search the Conveyance is of no force All Bonds have a Clause in them for inserting them in the publick Registers and they being registred without any farther action by a charge of six days the Debitor must make payment otherwise Writs called Letters of Horning Caption and Poynding are given out by the first of which the party is under Outlawry and Rebellion and forfeits to the King his personal Estate and if he continues a year under it the Life-rent of his real Estate in which the Creditor is to be preferred for his interest the rest goes into the Exchequer By the Letters of Caption the party is seised on and put in prison nor is his House a place of security but may be searched for him By the Letters of Poynding the Debitor's Goods may be distrained where-ever they can be found A third Instance to which I shall adde no more is that any

About the time of the Reformation the Universitie was almost brought to desolation and had been ruined had not King James the Sixth in his Minority restored it by his Royal Bounty and munificence He confirmed all its Privileges and bestowed upon it the Tithes of the Church of Govan Anno 1577. Afterwards he ratified all the former Acts made in favour of the Universitie and made some new Donations Anno 1617. King Charles the First did ratifie all the old Privileges and bestowed money for repairing the Fabrick King Charles the Second by the advice of the Estates of Parliament gave also money for the same purpose Bishop William Turnbull by whose procurement the Pope's Bull was obtained was very liberal to the Colledge bestowing upon it both Lands and Revenues and so were several of the Bishops and Archbishops who succeeded him The Citie of Glasgow were also Benefactours to the Colledge The Ground on which the Colledge stands with a Field adjacent thereunto was the donation of James Lord Hamilton Since the Reformation sundry private men have given considerable summs of money towards the maintenance of poor Scholars or Bursars as William Struthers Zachary Boyd Thomas Crawford Ministers Others have bestowed money for repairing the Fabrick as Alexander Boyd Matthew Wilson Ministers James Law Archbishop of Glasgow was very bountifull to the Colledge for he much augmented the Revenues thereof and bestowed many choice Books which are in the Library William Earl of Dundonald Anno 1672. gave about 1000 pounds sterling towards the maintenance of Bursars John Snell hath of late bestowed 6000 Marks Scotish for enriching the Library and adorning the Fabrick The Archbishops of Glasgow are perpetual Chancellours of the Universitie The Rectour is chosen once every year David Cadyow Canon of Glasgow was the first Rectour and William Elphingston Official of Glasgow afterwards Bishop of Aberdene was the first Dean of Facultie Principals 1454.

Matthew's Gospel on the Psalms and the Epistles to the Romans and Hebrews also a Book of Practical Divinitie called Therapeutica Sacra which he wrote in Latin Robert Bailie Professour of Divinity and afterwards Principal a learned and modest man though he published some very violent Writings yet those flowed rather from the instigation of other persons then his own inclinations He has left a great evidence of his Diligence and Learning in his Opus Chronologicum Alexander Nubet and James Ferguson two Ministers much esteemed were bred in this University they wrote each of them Commentaries on some of the Epistles George Hutchinson was also bred here who was accounted one of the greatest Preachers of the Presbyterian party and was a Learned man he wrote on the Twelve Minor Prophets on Job and on the Gospel of Saint John He died Anno 1674.

are clearly and onely in the Crown But to these other great Additions have been made in the two Parliaments held since His MAJESTIE' 's Restauration For whereas the Supremacy in Ecclesiastical affairs was always in the Crown since the Reformation yet in the Reign of King James the Sixth the Power of the General Assembly was raised very high by Law which was the chief foundation of the late Troubles it being pretended that it was contrary to Law for the King to introduce any thing into the Church without the consent of a General Assembly It was therefore enacted in Parliament That the External Government and Polity of the Church was wholly in the King's power and that his Orders sent to the Privy Council and published by them about all Ecclesiastical matters Meetings and Persons were to be obeyed by the Subjects any Law or Practice to the contrary notwithstanding So that in all matters that relate to the Chuch-Government the King's Power is absolute The Second Point is about the Militia By the ancient Laws of Scotland all the King's Subjects were to assist him in his Wars Upon which a great enlargement of the King's Prerogative was grafted of late by two Acts of Parliament the Kingdom of Scotland offering to the King to raise and arm Twenty thoussand Foot and Two thousand Horse and to furnish them with forty days Provision to march into any of His Majestie 's Dominions of Scotland England or Ireland for suppressing any Foreign Invasion Intestine Trouble or Insurrection or for any other Service wherein His Majestie 's Honour Authority or Greatness may be concerned And these Forces by another Act are to give due Obedience to all such Directions as they shall receive from His Majestie 's Privie Council A Third Point is the Ordering and disposing of Trade with Forein Nations and the laying of Restraints and Impositions upon Forein imported Commodities which is declared a Prerogative of the Crown With these Sacred Rights is the Crown of Scotland cloathed The King's Revenue consisted anciently most in the Crown-Lands which could not be alienated but by Act of Parliament and in the Wards and Marriages of the Vassals of the Crown But most of these have been of late years given away and most of the Tenures of Lands are changed although there has been no general Law for taking away the Wards The Revenue is now raised out of the Customes and the Excise The last is given to this King for life but the former is in the Crown for ever The rest is raised out of what remains of the Crown-Lands and the Wards The Persons nearest in bloud to the King are first all the Issue of King James and King Charles which are so well known to every one that they need not be repeated Next to them are all that are descended from the Daughter of King James the Second since whom till the Queen of Bohemia no Collateral Branch sprung from the Royal Family of whom any Issue remains who was married to James Lord Hamilton and had issue first James created Earl of Arran whose Son was the Duke of Chastelberault from whom by two Sons and two Daughters are descended the Families of Hamilton and Abercorn and the Families of Huntly and Launderdail And by an Act of Parliament signed by all the Three Estates the Original whereof is yet extant in the Reign of Queen Mary the Duke of Chastelberault's Family is declared next the Queen and her Issue the rightfull Heir of the Crown The Sister of King James the Third bare likewise to the Lord Hamilton a Daughter married to the Earl of Lennox from whom descended the Family of Lennox There is no other Branch of the Royal Family since it was in the Line of the Stewarts except the Earl of Cassils his Family whose Ancestour the Lord Kennedy married King James the First 's Sister from which Mariage that Family is descended And so much of the Royal Family The Chief and Supreme Court is the High Court of Parliament which is made up of Three Estates The First is the Ecclesiastical that of old consisted of the Bishops and Mitered Abbots but since the Reformation consists onely of Archbishops and Bishops The Second Estate is the Nobility who were anciently divided into the Greater Barons and the Lesser for every man that holds Lands of the Crown with a Privilege of holding a Court much like the Lord of a Manour in England is called a Baron and all were obliged to appear personally in Parliament for Proxies were never allowed by the Law of Scotland and give the King Counsel This proved a very heavy burthen to the small Barons upon which they desired to be excused from their attendance in Parliament and this was granted to them as a favour in King James the First 's reign And though by that Act they might have sent two or three or more to represent them from every Shire yet they made no use of that for above 150 years but King James the Sixth to balance the Nobility got them restored to that Right so that ever since there are two sent from every Shire who are Commissioners for the Shires The Third Estate is the Burroughs every one of which chuseth one Commissioner onely the City of Edinburgh as the Metropolis chuseth two The Parliament is summoned by Proclamation made at the Head-Burrough of every Shire 40 days before they meet upon which the Shires and Burroughs meet about their Elections Every man that holds Lands of the Crown that in the Rolls of the Taxation the ancient Name of Subsidies or Assessments are valued at 40 shillings Scotish mony of Taxation to the King which will be in real value about Ten pounds Sterling a year is an Electour and may be Elected so he be rightly vested in the Land or according to the Scotish terms infeoft and seised and be not at the King's Horn that is under an Outlawry The Electours subscribe the Commissions they give and so their Commissioner is returned and if there be cross Elections the Parliament is the onely Judge In the Burroughs the Common-Council of the Town makes the Election When the day comes in which the Parliament is to be held the Regalia the Crown Sceptre and the Sword of State which are kept in the Castle of Edinburgh are brought down in State to the King's Palace and are to be carried by three of the ancientest Earls that are upon the place bare-headed before the King or His Commissioner In the great Court before the King's Palace all the Members of Parliament do mount on Horseback with Foot-cloaths c. The Burgesses ride first the Commissioners of the Shires next then the Lords Viscounts and Earls in their Robes the last of whom do carry the

Cromwell whereas the Authour sent over to the Printer a Dedication of his Book to His most Sacred Majestie at that time Prince of Wales and the Copy of that Dedication written with his own hand is yet in the custody of his Son the Reverend James Gordon Parson of Rothinay Thus much I thought fit to say in vindication of that worthy Gentleman who was one of the most learned persons of the Age he lived it Dempster in his Apparatus to the Scotish History has promised a great many things to the World which he never performed some have thought that he onely amused people by the undertaking he mentions in that Book Others believe that he knew of a great many Scotish Manuscripts beyond the Seas which were carried thither by Monks and Friers at the Reformation In most Religious houses there was a Chronicle written of the times divers of which I have seen that yet remain in Scotland some written in rithme English and Latine some in prose but there cannot be much made out of them they being full of Legends and Idle stories There are besides very considerable Manuscripts in Scotland that relate to private Families but give an account of several publick Transactions as the History of the Families of the Drummonds the Gordons c. But for a publick History of the Kingdom there is little more to be expected of past times then what hath been already published for as when Edward the First conquered Scotland he carried the Records and Registers of that Kingdom with him to London so in the late Invasion Cromwell thought it a very valuable pledge of the Scotish Nation to send up to the Tower of London all the publick Records Rolls and Registers of the Kingdom which lay there till His MAJESTY's happy Restauration after which by the KING's Orders they were sent down by Sea to be laid up in the Castle of Edinburgh but the Ship that was loaded with them was cast away near the Holy Island So they were all irrecoverably sunk and lost Therefore we must rely upon the credit of our ancient Historians since there are no means left to correct them by A compleat Catalogue of the BISHOPS and ARCHBISHOPS succeeding each other in their several SEES Bishops in SCOTLAND before its division into Dioceses 277. 1.
