Abstract
| - With reference to the grant by King Robert Bruce of the Sheriffdom of Cromarty, two forms of which were printed on pp. 328 f., it has been pointed out in a letter printed in the Glasgow Herald of 8 May that one of the two had been printed, with a facsimile, in the National Manuscripts of Scotland, part ii. no. 21, and also in Fraser's Earls of Cromartie, ii. 446. The writer, Mr. W. 11. Mackenzie, considers that the chief interest of the deeds lies in their being a grant of a royal burgh by the king to a vassal. On p. 380 tho last line should be transferred to the foot of p. 381.
