Digitized by VaOOQ IC Digitized by Google PREFACE The present volume of the Treasurer's Accounts is very different from its predecessora The days of James IV. are gone : that romantic monarch has fallen on the field at Flodden, a victim to his o\\Ti folly. He has left his kingdom crippled with the loss of many wise and valiant men, with a nobility who, now that the strong and tactful hand of their master (for James with all his faults must have been a born leader of men) was removed, were destined to fell into the most pitiful and self- destructive factions. The future King was a mere infant in arms, his mother an amorous widow with hot Tudor blood in her veins which con- tinually nullified the undoubted mental power and ability which she had and which she also inherited from her race. We see in the following pages the Regent Albany trying to do his best for a country with which he had ties of blood, but towards which he felt so little attracted that he wel- comed the day when he left it for ever for his more agreeable land of adoption. Then came the crushing and insolent domination of the Douglases, and the Accounts come to a conclusion for the present just after the escape of the young King b Digitized by VaOOQ IC xii PKEFACE. from their custody but before his character as an individual ruler has had time to develop itself. The period covered hy the volume is from 1515, two years after the Battle of Flodden, to 1531, but no Accounts have come down to us for the periods between September 1518 and June 1522, from April 1524 to August 1525, and from August 1527 to August 1529. The omission of the last period is particularly unfortunate, as we have not even an incidental allusion to the escape of the King from Falkland and the dissolution of the great Douglas combination. In all there are eleven sets of Accounts, some of them being very short, only extending over a few months. They are, it must be confessed, not nearly such interest- ing reading as those that have previously been published. They want that note of personal interest which was so characteristic of the others. There is no gay monarch meeting his young wife with a briUiant cavalcade, tilting at tournaments, building ships which were the wonder of the age, casting guns, pottering with alchemy, and at last going forth to a death the tragedy of which has rung in Scottish story for centuries. There are no doubt certain features in common in the Accounts of both the reigns. We have ample details and to spare of the dresses provided for the King, of the liveries of the Royal Household, of the pensions and allowances made to the Court officials, an4 of the buildings and repairs which Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. riii. were carried on in the Royal Palaces. But there is no one subject of outstanding interest in the present volume ; there is no Royal Marriage ; there is no shipbuilding ; there is not, even, very much sport. There are innumerable payments to messengers who were sent all over the country on all sorts of errands, summoning Parliament, poinding goods, collecting taxes and fines, appre- hending malefactors, calling out the nobles for the service of their country, or at all events of that faction which, for the time being, represented the Government of the country. Much of all this belongs to the general history of Scotland, and this has been treated so often and so well that the present editor may be excused from entering into it at any great length, more especially as this very period has been admirably dealt with in other volumes of the Lord Clerk Register's publications, by Mr. Mackay in the fourteenth and by Mr. M'Neill in the fifteenth volumes of the Exchequer Rolls, There are some matters, however, belong- ing more particularly to the domain of the Treasurer which may throw some light on the rather depressing annals of the time. Eleven Accounts altogether appearin this volume, an unusually large number considering the space of time actually covered, but some of them are for very short periods. The first is only for the seven months subsequent to 25th June 1515, tliough it did not pass the Exchequer until the Srd October Digitized by VjOOQ IC xiv. PREFACE. following. The officer who rendered it was James Hepbume; a younger son of Alexander Hepbume of Whitsome, who was a son of Andrew Hepbume, first Lord Hailes. He was rector of Parton in July 1510, and also held the living of Dairy in Galloway. In 1515 he was postulate Abbot of Dunfermline, and assumed the title, though it is doubtful if he was ever inducted. He was ap- pointed Bishop of Moray the same year on the translation of Andrew Forman to the Arch- bishopric of St. Andrews, and we find him on the 25th June occupying the position of Treasurer, He must have found the performance of the duties of that office incompatible with his other appoint- ment, as he did not hold it long, resigning in October 1516. His successor was Sir William Ogilvy of Stratherne, third son of Sir Walter Ogilvy of Boyne, and brother of Sir Walter Ogilvy of Dunlugus, whose descendants were afterwards ennobled under the title of Lord Banfi*. Although he did not hold the office very long he renders two Accounts, the first extending from January 1515-16 to the following October, and the second from the latter date to the next January. This account, however, was not rendered till the following September by Mr. James Currour in his name, so he must have either resigned or been removed from office before that date. He was succeeded by Mr. John Campbell designated of Thornton, though better known afterwards as Digitized by VjOOQIC PREFACB. XV. Campbell of Lundy, from lands in Angus which he acquired from Lord Lyle. He married Isabel, daughter of Patrick, Lord Gray, and widow of Adam Crichton of Ruthven, who fell at Flodden. John Campbell was appointed one of the first Lords of Session on the institution of the College of Justice in 1532. He is responsible for four Accounts in this volume, the first covering the period from January 1516-17 to September 1517, the second coming down to September in the following year. There is then a gap of nearly four years, the Accounts of which have not come down to us. The third Account is from June 1522 to April 1524 ; there is then another gap till August 1525, when his fourth Account begins and goes down to June 1 526. He was then removed from office, but did not die till November, 1562. From June to August 1526 is a very short Account,, rendered by William, Master of Glen- cairn. He was the eldest son of Cuthbert, second Earl of Glencairn, and the warrant of his appoint- ment is dated 25th June 1526. It bore to be for the period of four years, but his father having joined the Earl of Lennox in his attempt to free the King from the. domination of the Douglases, which resulted in Lennox's death at the battle of Linlithgow in September 1526, he became obnoxious to Angus and was deprived of his office very shortly thereafter. It was only to be expected from the circumstances of the time that a Douglas Digitized by VaOOQ IC xvi. PREFACE. should be appointed to the vacant place; and accordingly we find that Archibald Douglas of Kilspindie, known in history by the sobriquet the King bestowed on ' him, Greysteil, next received the white wand of the Treasurer. He was an uncle of the Earl of Angus, being a younger son of Archibald, fifth Earl, by his first wife, Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Lord Boyd, and held the important post of Provost of Edin- burgh. The only Account of his which has come down to us extends from the date of his appointment in October 1526 to the end of August 1527. In 1528 Angus left the King in his charge and that of his own brother George, but the latter rode over to St. Andrews on business, and the former asked leave of the King to go to Dundee for a few days, " Sum say is," Pitscottie tells us, with his usual taste for scandal, " he had an gentillwoman thair quhome he raid to wessie." The King took advantage of their absence to make his escape from Falkland, and from that date the power of the Douglases was gone. Archibald shared in the fell of his house as he had been originally raised by its influence. He was forfeited along with his nephew in September 1528 and retired to France. There is a pathetic story told of how years afterwards he returned to Scotland and tried to interview James on his return from hunting at Stirling. The King's resentment against his race was, however, implacable. With Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. xvii. averted face he passed the old man by. Douglas sank down exhausted and asked the King's attendants for a glass of water, which was refused him ; sick at heart he had to relinquish the idea of ending his days in his native country and retired again to France, where he died. No Accounts are now extant from the end of Archibald Douglass Account in 1527 till August 1529. Douglas's immediate successor was Robert Caimcross, Provost of the Collegiate Church of Corstorphine. He was appointed Abbot of Holy- rood in September 1528 ; from some suspicion, apparently, that he favoured the cause of the Douglases he was removed from his office of Treasurer in 1529, though some years afterwards, in 1537, he again held the office for a few months. He was made Bishop of Ross in 1539, and held that office together with the Abbacy of Feme till his death in November 1545. We have no Accounts of his in this volume : the next Account being that of Robert Bertoun or Barton of Over- barnton, which commences on 21st August 1529 and extends for about a year from that date. Barton was a son of John Barton, whom we have frequently met with in former Accounts, one of the famous family of sailors who did so much for the navy of James IV. There is a detailed account of him in the Preface to the Exchequer RoUs.^ He held the office of Comptroller from 1516 to 1525, ^ VoL xiv., 1^. XOÌÌÌ.-ZOÌT. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xviii PREFACE. and again in 1528. In the following year he was made Treasurer, and combined with that office the Mastership of the Mint. He was only Treasurer for a year, though he continued to serve the King very faithfully till his death in 1538. The last Account in this volume, extending from October 1 530 to September 1 531 , is that of William Stewart, of the family of Stewart of Minto, Dean of Glasgow and Provost of Lincluden, and who was about fifty years of age when he received his appointment. He had previously been parson of Lochmaben, Rector of Ayr, and a Prebendary of Glasgow. He was made Dean of the last named place in 1527, and having distinguished himself by his abilities was made Treasurer in October 1530, and at the same time got the Provostry of Lincluden. Honours, indeed, came fast upon him, for on a vacancy occurring in the diocese of Aber- deen he was elected Bishop of that See in 1532. He was employed in an embassy to England shortly after : he held the office of Treasurer for seven years and discharged its duties faithfully and efficiently. He administered the affairs of his diocese, to which he then retired, with much ability till his death on 17th April 1545. Spottiswood describes him as ''a man given to virtue, charitable to the poor, and ready to every good work." In addition to the Accounts proper, we have those relating to the taz which James raised from Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. xix. the dioceses and religious houses in Scotland for the equipment of the ships and army which he required for bringing the ever recalcitrant Isles into subjection. He aimed at ten thousand crowns, about £6000, but the clergy, by an appeal to the Pope, got this sum considerably reduced, and the total amount collected appears to have been £3457.' The Kino. It was probably on Easter Eve 1512, though the exact date is not certain, that James V. first saw light Seventeen months later his father went down in the ruin of Flodden, leaving the babe to be for years the sport of warring factions. By the end of September 1513 the infant King was hastily crowned at Stirling — ^before another year was out his mother had outraged public opinion by marrying Angus — and then began the long story of base intrigue, plot and counterplot, till all patriotic spirit seemed well nigh dead. But leaving these aside as belonging to the domain of general history, it may be interesting to note the personal details of the life of the young King as revealed to us in these Accounts. No very stirring event or romantic incident may be chronicled, but even trifling things when separated fix)m us by some centuries have a certain homely charm of their own. Digitized by VaOOQ IC XX. PREFAOR In the last volume of the Accounts there were several references to the little Prince, to his nurses and *' rokkaris" and to the clothes in which he was swathed. When the first of the Accounts in the present volume begins, he and his post- humously-born brother, the Duke of Ross, were still in the custody of their mother, but she was being summoned by Albany to give them up to a committee of four lords as their guardians. We may give full credit to real maternal instincts in Margaret when, in a dramatic scene, she dared the emissaries of the Governor from behind the bars of the portcullis of Stirling Castle, and refused to give her children up, Albany would, however, take no denial, and threatened serious force, so finding resistance useless they were surrendered. The first notice we have of the Royal children in the Accounts is in September 1515, not long after they had been taken from their mother ; it is not mentioned where they were staying, but it is not unlikely that, as was afterwards the case, they were in Edinburgh Castle. It is pleasing to think that they seem to have been well looked after in the matter of clothes. White linen shirts, and black velvet coats lined with white, scarlet " wylecoats " or overcoats, caps or " quaiffs " of old gold taffety trimmed with ruby silk ribbons, with silken belts and laces made very brave trappings for the two little boys. They were probably under the inmiediate charge of Christian Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. xxi. Wille, the King's nurse,* though the infant Duke of Ross had apparently an attendant for himself who got a black gown at the same time as the children's clothes were got.^ For some time there are very few entries relating to the King, and these vary only in relation to his clothing. On the 18th January, 1516-17, David Lindsay, "the Kingis uschare," who was afterwards to make so brilliant a name for himself in the literature of his country, gets a Martinmas fee of £20, which would seem to show that his yearly salary at this time was £40 — a figure which does not agree with that mentioned in the Exchequer Rolls, which indicate that he only got £30.^ Another interesting figure appears in the person of the " maister " or tutor of the boy King, Gavin Dunbar, afterwards Archbishop of Glasgow and Chancellor of Scotland. He gets at one time £9 to buy necessary things for the King's chauiber,*and again he receives a sum of £3 for the expense of repairing the same.* This chamber was in Edinburgh Castle, but occasionally, probably when the city was more than usually infested with the plague, the King was taken to Craigmillar or some neighbouring country resi- dence; almost immediately after the last mentioned entry, in the month of September 1517, there is a » Bxch. Rolls, xiy., 250. * P. 111. » P. 10. • P. 129. •Vol. xir,, 127;, and Preface, It. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xxii. PREFACE. charge for locks and keys and bolts for the King's chamber whilst he remained at Craigmillar, which seems to show that every care was taken to keep him in safe custody, though we may hope that he got a reasonable amount of liberty in the open air, as there is an entry for shoes and harnessings for the King's mule. He was hardly yet of an age to ride alone, but he may have been carried in a pillion on the back of a steady quadruped like that mentioned, though he may have essayed riding on mule-back on his own account when still of tender years, because in the very next summer, when he is again at Craigmillar, guarded by the gay and handsome De la Bastie with the golden hair, who looked after the safety of his Royal charge so well as to get two great locks for the gates of the Castle, we get an account of the considerable sum of nearly £4 for saddles and other harness which were " given to the King " for his mule. It is a pretty fancy, and not altogether a vain one, to imagine the brilliant French knight riding fix)m the heights of Craigmillar curbing his charger to keep pace with the boy's mule and giving him hints as to the meruxge while entertaining him with stories of tournaments and battle. The boy was certainly little over six, but his upbringing had been such as makes for early development His personal suite had been increased and he had now three " gentil women " in attendance on him and perhaps another who was called the King's Digitized by VaOOQ IC PEEFACE. xxiii Mistress : lier name was Elizabeth Douglas/ and it is difficult to know whether we should identify her with that Marion Douglas who appears in the Exchequer Rolls as the King's nurse^ and who probably succeeded the older nurse Chris- tian Wille* By 1 5 1 8 , too, David Lindsay is raised from the post of usher, which he nominally occupied up till then, and is now styled the King's Master of Household.^ It is doubtful, however, if the salary was increased along with the dignity of the title ; true, he gets a payment of £40 instead of £20, but the one may be an annual and the other was certainly a half yearly payment The King does not appear to have imbibed either from David Lindsay or any other of his preceptors much literary learning, as he is generally said to have been as a young man singularly deficient in clerkly accomplishments. But to his education and upbringing there are almost no allusions in the Accounts He seems to have been well, though by no means extravagantly, provided for in the matter of clothes, though he had apparently a little gown of cloth of gold lined with black satin when little more than four years old.* By the time we get to 1522, how- ever, his wardrobe naturally gets more extensive, and we have glimpses of the King's household which go some way to disprove the charges brought » p. 14«. • Vol. xiv., 350. » Ibid., p. Uv. * P. 160. * P. 112. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xxiv. PREFACE. against Albany by the Angus faction that he kept the King in a beggarly condition. We have the entries describing the furnishing the boy with a riding coat and other things by the Governor's own order on the departure of James from Edin- burgh to Stirling in July or August 1522,^ and there appears to have been no lack of suitable and handsome costumes appropriate to a youth of his age. He also got bows and arrows and all the saddlery that he required. His household at the time consisted of fifteen servants, besides two yeomcB of the chamber, Henry Kemp and William Spicehous ; Mawis Acheson continued to be his " lavendar " or laundress, while Jonet Douglas, the spouse of David Lindsay, got the sub- stantial payment of <£24 for sewing the King's linen. His tailor's bill for two years at this time came to ^40, that of the furrier to £20, and that of the shoemaker to a similar sum. So that, upon the whole, the young King was comfortably enough off in some things. It was not, indeed, the policy of those who held the young King in custody to do anything that would create in his mind any strong feeling antagonistic to them. On the contrary, the more he was indulged the more likely would he be to leave matters entirely in their hands. We see, therefore, as he grows older his expenses increase, and he is not confined to Edinburgh very closely. »p 193. ' Digitized by VjOOQ IC PEEFACR XXV In July 1525 he was certainly there and attended several meetings of the Parliament which was then sitting, and by which an arrangement was made as to the future custody of the King. From August to November, Angus the Archbishop of Glasgow, and others were to be responsible for him, then up till Candlemas he was to be cared for by Arran, the Bishop of Aberdeen, and others, then he passed to the charge of Argyll and the Chancellor till the 1st of May, while Lennox and the Bishop of Dunblane were to look after him for the remainder of the year till Lammaa In August the Eang's portmanteau is carried to Peebles ; probably Angus had some business in that part of the country and took James with him. The Accounts are rather confused about this period, but it would appear that James was at Dal- keith in September^ shooting, hawking, and eating pears in the garden. He was in Stirling the end of October,* but again at Dalkeith in December.' Yuletide was spent in Edinburgh, and we find in the Accounts may traces of his amusements, in the shape of money for cardplaying, saddles for his horses, chains and collars for his hounds, and bolts for his crossbow. More serious matters, however, were speedily to engage his attention : in January 1525-6 the Queen determined to make an attempt to obtain »P. 258. «P 259, • P. 253. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xxvì. PREFACE. possession of the person of her son and assembled an array of considerable force at Linlithgow, in which among other nobles were the Earls of Arran and Moray. Angus, Lennox, and Argyll with great promptitude raised a large following and marched, taking the King with them, to oppose the Queen's party. But no fighting was done : the Queen and Arran fled. The Earl of Moray having received " letters in three forms " requiring him to come to the King made his submission and accompanied him back to Edinburgh.^ Easter was spent at Stirling,* but the King was in Edinburgh by the 24th of April playing tennis and eating sweetmeats and dates like an average boy of fourteen. In May summonses were issued to certain lords and gentlemen to meet the King at Soutra and Stow, and on the 16th of that month we read of him riding ** gatwartis " to Melrose. Whether this had any- thing to do with repeatedly postponed arrange* ments for the pacification of the Borders is not certain, but it was in some way a military expedition, as spears and powder were sup- plied.* Nothing came of it apparently, as the King on the very day he set out returned to Edin- burgh in the afternoon. In June Parliament met and declared that the authority royal was now in James's own hands, to be exercised and used by ' Fraser's I>ouglas, Book II., | « P. 256. p. 223.

On Midsummer day, for instance/ we find him " casting eggs " after supper ; though in what the sport consisted is not clear, eggs being usually associated rather with Easter than Midsummer. There is another entry connected with the same sport on the 29th June 1526, when 15s. 6d. is spent on "eggis to bikkir the castell."' This points to their being used as missiles in some mimic game of war : there must have been a con- siderable collection of eggs made for the purpose, and they seem to. have been obtained in the &8hion most oonvenient at the time, and not always paid for ; a poor woman, we are told, came " gretand upon his grace," and complaining that his servants had forcibly bereffc her of the produce of her henhouse. She had to be pacified with a payment of twenty shillings/ On the 2nd of July the King was at dinner with the laird of Caldar, Sir James Sandilands, and on that day granted to him and thirteen others a remission for the cruel slaughter of James Somervile, "commitit on forethought felony."* The servants in the house got £6 in gratuities.^ 1 Acta Pari.

An expedition was now planned, whether, as most historians tell us, to put down disturbances which the unruly Armstrongs were causing on the Borders, or to make a journey to the late King's favourite place of pilgrimage, Whithorn, as seems to be indicated in the Accounts,^ is not certain. On the 18th July James, accompanied by Angus and his following, was in Peebles, and on the fol- lowing day in Melrose, from which a messenger was sent to Lord Fleming's place at Cumbernauld for a hawk. On the 28th he was in Jedburgh holding, Pitscottie tells us, a Justice ayre. Tired of his thraldom to the Douglases, James had con- trived to let some of the barons who resented their growing influence and arrogance know his state of mind. On leaving Jedburgh the Eoyal cavalcade turned homewards, but when they got to Melrose they were confronted by Scott of Buccleuch at the head of a large party of troops. An action followed, fought on Darnick Moor on the 29th July, which resulted in the defeat of Scott's forces and the death of Ker, the laird of Cesfurd. Another and more serious attempt to free the young King was made in September by the Earl of Lennox, who forfeited his life in the task : the accounts of the engagement have come down to us in minute detail the substantial truth of which there appears no reason to doubt. But we hear no tidings of it in the every-day and prosaic entries in the ^ P, 276, Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. zxix. Accounts, so it need not be entered into : it is sufficient to say that James never forgot nor forgave the conduct of the Douglases on that occasion. During the next few months we get little infor- mation about the King s doings from the Accounts. He spent the Christmas of 1526 at Dalkeith.^ On the 26th of March 1527 there is an entry which enlightens us as to the extent and expense of the Boyal kennels, for James seems to have been as ardent a lover of dogs as his father had been of hawks. There were eighteen " raches " or hounds for hunting and three greyhounds, and their keep cost eight shillings a day. In the spring or summer of this year James probably accompanied Angus in some of those Border expeditions which were frequent about this time. He had £90 given him to play at cards with " quhen he raid to the oist on the thevis,*'* and his trumpeter, Julian, got £20 for his attendance ** at divers raids,"* On the 24th June he bought a " great horse " from the King of Denmark's ambassador at a cost of £60. It is unfortunate that just at this period for two years between August 1527 and August 1529 there should be a gap in the Accounts, because it was in June 1528 that the King made his escape from Falkland to Stirling and emancipated himself from the power of the Douglases whose great family » p. 316. I • P. 818. Digitized by VaOOQ IC XXX. PREFACE. faction at once began to break up, sentence of for- feiture being passed on the Earl of Angus, George Douglas, his brother, and Archibald Douglas, their uncle, on the 5th September following. Nor do we get any hint about the raid against the Arm- strongs, which resulted in the hanging of the famous Border thief with forty-eight of his retainers. In November the King was at Dum- fries,* probably holding a Justice ayre, and he seems to have continued his journey as far as Ayr,* where he summoned Gordon of Lochinvar and Stewart of Garlics to meet him. About this period he determined to make extensive additions to and repairs in Holyrood, and in the year between August 1529 and August 1530 no less a sum than £1568 was spent in " the bigging and reparatioun of the new hous besyde the Abbay of Halyrude hous." This addition probably consisted of the north-west towers, on one of which could be traced till about 1820 the King's name, jacobvs rex scotorvm, in large gilt Boman letters. The repairs went on for some years, and in 1531 we find that the sum expended on them amounted to upwards of £1466.' We trace the King's movements at this time chiefly through the medium of the Kegister of the Great Seal. The first part of 1530 was passed between Edinburgh and Stirling, and in the later 1 p. 376; cf. Beg. Mag. 8ig., I • P. 385. 6tb NoTember, 1529. | • P. 433, Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFAGK xxxi. parts of the year charters are dated at Falkland, Perth, and Scone. One is given at Peebles in July, and several at Dundee in October ; he may have been at Elgin in November, but Christmas was spent at Stirling. In March 1530-31 he appears to have been at Dundee again. April, May, and June saw the Court at Edinburgh and Stirling alternately, from which places it went to Perth and Falkland. In August the King entertained a hunting party at Meggatland,^ for which occasion two dozen halberts were provided and a new gown and doublet of French gray.* It is curious to note that the Prioress of Haddington was one of the invited guests.' This is the last personal item of interest which we have about the King in the present volume. The Country. When the Accounts open in 1515 Scotland was very slowly recovering from the great shock of Flodden. For an admirable sketch of the state of the country at this period reference may be made to the preface to vol. xiv. of the Exchequer Bolls. Only a few of the leading incidents need be mentioned here, so far as they bear on the entries contained in this volume. Albany had been » p. 445. I » p. 44«. • p. 422. Digitized by VaOOQ IC :txxu. PREFACE. summoned from France to take up the reins of government, but unable to obey the behest at once he sent over D'Arcy de la Bastie, whom we have met with in previous volumes, and together with him came the Earl of Arran bringing with him a sorry remnant of that great fleet of which his late master had been so proud. Indeed, only two ships are here mentioned by name, the James and the Margaret, and we find them lying at Dumbarton in July 1515, £40 being expended in making docks for them there.^ Perhaps the guns with which they were furnished were taken out of them, as we read of fourteen pieces of artillery lying at the brig of Glasgow: John Drummond and his servants were despatched in the same month to mount them on carriages and to arrange for their being brought home to Edinburgh, and in October Eobin Borthwick, the Master of Artillery, one of the few notable persons who had escaped with his life from Flodden, was sent to Glasgow with the specific injunction to bring home two cannons, probably the largest pieces that were there.' Previous to this Borthwick had not been idle. In July preparations were made in the Castle of Edinburgh for the erection of a new furnace for the founding of guns, and we h^ve abundant evidence that both at this time and Mabsequently vigorous efibrts were made to supply » Pp. 16-17. 1 » P. 18 Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. xxxiii. the place of those guns which had apparently been lost in 1513* This, however, is to anticipate. It may be said that the beginning of the volume synchronises with the first arrival of Albany. Sir William Gumming of Inveralochy, the Lyon King of Arms, had been sent several times to urge his advent ; and at last Arran brought him, probably as has been mentioned above, in one of the late King's own ships, either the James or the Margaret On the 16th May 1516 the squadron touched at Ayr, and on the 18th they had arrived at Dumbarton. There was some little delay, however, before the Governor came to the capital, as he did not arrive there till the 26th, " ane Witsounday evin."* It was a difficult task which the brilliant French noble (for he was more French than Scottish, and Margaret spoke French to him when they met so that he might understand her) found he had under- taken. The Queen Dowager had, shortly after the birth of a second and posthumous son, the short- lived Duke of Boss, married the yoimg Earl of Angus, much to the indignation of the country, and the nobles were hopelessly divided amongst themselves. But Albany, notwithstanding his foreign upbringing, set himself to the work, which was not congenial to him, in a way for which he has not always got credit. He met the Parliament on 12 th July and received his appointment as * p. 18. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xxxiv. tfeEFACE. Begent, an office which he was to hold until James had attained the age of 18, or in other words till April 1530. Towards the end of the month it is not improbable that he attended some State service in St. Giles to commemorate the death of the late King, as on the 23rd of that month there is an entry of 14s. paid to Alexander Chalmer, the painter, for one hundred and forty painted coats of arms " to the obsequijs of our soverane lord King James the ferd . • . this day deliverit in Sanct Gelis Kirk." Measures were immediately taken for the recovery of sums of money owed by various persons to the Crown, and on the last day of July letters were sent from the Governor to the Lords Erskin and Fleming and Sir John Stirling of Keir " for keping of the Kingis person," from which it would appear that it was Albany's intention to commit the custody of the young monarch to these persons. Meanwhile James and his young brother were with their mother in Stirling Castle, and Albany fully understood that it was not likely he would get them into his own hands without strong measures being taken. Sunmionses were sent out for the mobilisation of an army, Edinburgh Castle was denuded of its artillery, which was taken to Stirling in eighteen carts under the charge of twelve carters, a hundred and twenty-one labourers, and nine drivers or " gadmen."^ Having succeeded in obtaining the Digitized by VjOOQ IC t&EPACR. XXXV. person of the King without actual fighting having taken place, he returned with him to Edinburgh on 14th August. Previous to this he had not been idle, and on the 10th of August had sent an officer to demand the surrender to him of the Castles of Home, Thornton, Fastcastle, Newark, Birleton, Dunglass, and Samuelston. He also stopped all the ports of the country " fra passage of clerkis or lettres without licence " ; this was probably in connection with the many ecclesiastical quarrels about vacant benefices which were going on at the time, Gavin Douglas having been tried before the Privy Council in July for purchasing from the Pope the See of Dunkeld without the King's licence, and sentenced to be put in ward. The stopping of the ports was probably to pre- vent any appeal being sent to the Pope relative to these matters. Albany certainly did not want for energy : no sooner was he in possession of the Bang's person than an army was summoned to be at Edinburgh on the 1 5th of August provided with victuals for fifteen days ; but this was subsequently counter- manded, though the lords were bidden to be ready " at an houris wamying." The Accounts, unfor- tunately, do not allow us to trace the movements of Albany at this time, but there is ample evidence to show his endeavours to get together an army which would be sufficient to support his authority Digitized by VaOOQ IC xxxvi. PREFACE. in the country. His first efforts were directed towards the pacification of the Borders and in the subjugation of the unruly Homes, whom English influence had succeeded in making enemies of the Governor. The lairds of the Merse, Lothian, and Tweeddale were summoned to be with their men at EUem, Petcok, and Duns on the last day of August, and we know that a few days after this the Governor had made himself master of Home Castle, for which iron gates had been making in Edin- burgh by his orders for some time. But we have no definite allusion to the taking of the Castle in the Accounts. We hear of a tax of the thirtieth penny being imposed for the raising of an army ; and between the 4th and 16th of September, Lyon King of Arms was sent three times to Lord Dacre, the English Warden, with communications, some of which must have been of an urgent nature, as on the last occasion he set out on his journey at five in the morning.^ On the 17th September a hundred and forty-six letters were despatched to the prelates, lords, and barons " to speed them on with their househaldis to ray lord governouris with diligens," and two days afterwards proclama- tion was made that " all fensable persons " round about Edinburgh were to come in on the last day of September with ten days' victuals. Express messengers, indeed, were busily employed at this time, and ran all over the country with letters to »P.39. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. .xxxvii. the barons, to the Queen, who was now in England, and lastly to Angus himself, who had shortly before been made a prisoner and put in the charge of Arran, but had disappeared along with his fickle jailor. He was now summoned to compear on the 16th of November. Arran was discharged of his oflSce of Sheriff of Lanark on the I6th of October, but he made his peace with Albany before another month was out. Of the siege and capture of his Castle of Hamilton, wliich took place about this time, we hear nothing definite, but probably the conveyance of two great cannons and other artillery to Glasgow on the 14th September may have had something to do with it. The date, however, is better fixed by a subsequent entry* which alludes to the passing and returning of the Governor and his army to and from Hamilton " betwix the penult day of October last inclusive to the fifth day of November thairefter." We get some side glimpses of what was going on in Scotland at this time from some of the entries, but they are mere glimpses in the pre- vailing darkness. We hear, for instance, that the Gabrid was sent to the Isles for the support of Mclan when his house was "segit" by "Schir Donald Ylis." This must refer to one of those continually recurring troubles in the Western Highlands. Argyll had in 1514 been charged with the pacification of the country : Mclan was > p. 48. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xxxviii. PJREPACE. on his side, but Sir Donald of Lochakh was a formidable opponent, and this was probably one of his attempts to oust Mclan from his lands, a task in which he ultimately succeeded. A little rejoicing took place in the shape of an illumination of the country by bonfires at the end of October when news arrived of a victory gained by the new King of France, Francis I., in Lom- bardy. The incident proves the ascendancy of the French party in Scotland at this time, for we can hardly conceive there can have been any real national feeling of jubilation at a victory won so far away, and which did not directly affect the course of affairs in Scotland at all. There was, as might be expected, much official intercourse with France at this time. De Planis, the French Am- bassador, had gone, under the escort of James Ogilvy, the Commendator of Dryburgh, to inter- view Queen Margaret and Lord Dacre in England on the 30th September ; he returned to Scotland within the following month, as a messenger was sent to seek him at Dalkeith, but apparently not finding him there succeeded in tracing him to Peebles. A few days afterwards, on the 3rd November, the same messenger is said to have borne despatches from the ambassador, who seems to have come to Edinburgh, to the Gbvemor, who was at Hamilton. Tidings from France were anxiously looked for at this period, as on the 15th November a post was sent to " the West Ferry " Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. XXXIX to enquire for letters at Frenchmen who had come there with a ship.* An embassy to France was also projected, and forty-one burghs were assessed in a tax for the expenses of the ambassadors. De Planis himself set off again to visit Dacre in the beginning of December, going by way of Dunbar and Berwick, and he had hardly departed before urgent despatches were sent after him, one on the 2nd and two on the 4th December. On the 6th yet another messenger was sent off on the same errand, the ambassador being believed to be then with the Queen at " Harbottill in Ingland." It is doubtful, however, whether by that time he had got so far, as on the 1 0th despatches were received from him from Kelso, and an immediate answer was returned.* The movements of De Planis are by no means clear, as on the 19th December there is a pa3nnent to a messenger to pass with him, Gavin Dunbar, Archdean of St. Andrews, and the laird of Balwery, Sir William Scot, to Coldingham, and thereafter to go into England to the Queen. The Governor himself sent letters to Margaret from Dunbar, where he then was, on Christmas Day, and the ambassador despatched communi- cations to the English Commissioners at Morpeth two days after in connection with a truce which was to last from 17th January to Whitsunday.' Meanwhile the preparations for the embassy pre- ' p. 49. I * Lesley, Book zix, «P. 51, Digitized by VaOOQ IC xl. PREFACE. viously alluded to were not forgotten : at the close of this Account, and at the very end of the year, urgent letters were for the third time sent out to the burghs demanding payment of the tax, "undir escheting of their gudis and tynsall of their fredomis " ; and proclamation was made that neither merchant nor mariner were to set sail without licence under the pain of forfeiting both their ships and goods.^ As to the movements of the Governor himself during the last two months of this year, we have already seen that he was at Hamilton in the beginning of November, where a messenger arrived post haste, having ridden day and night from Dunbar, with letters from the under Captain of the Castle there (Sir Anthony D'Arcy had been appointed Captain some time previously), evidently intimating that matters were not in a settled state ; the actual phrase used in the Accounts is — " anent the rasing of fyre be the Kingis rebbelis." An answer was returned on the 5th, addressed to D'Arcy at Dunbar, " or forthir quhair he culd be found," and on the 22nd Albany left Edinburgh and went to Dunbar to spend Christmas with Sir Anthony in the Castle, and he was there when the first Account closes. The Fortification of Inchgarvie. — Before pro- ceeding with the narrative of the succeeding Accounts, it is interesting to note a long series of Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. xli entries dealing with the building of a fortification in Inchgarvie. This little islet, situated between North and South Queensferry in the Forth, and which now supports the two great central spans of the Forth Bridge, was granted on 14th May 1491 to John Dundas of Dundas with power to build a castle thereon, and to levy dues on ships passing up the Forth. Dundas does not seem to have exercised his privilege : at all events the Government took the matter into their own hands, and in December 1514 a company of masons and workmen, under the charge of Captain Denniston, were sent to the place and commenced building operations.^ Opera- tions proceeded apace, and by the 20th July 1615 Albany was able to send there a gentleman, two gunners, and two servants with the view of con- sidering how best it could be adapted for a place of defence. The provisions for the men and the expenses for the work are all set down in con- siderable detail, and show that the works must have been of considerable magnitude. The religious needs of the little community were not forgotten : we read of a chaplain who read mass, and 25s. were paid for vestments and altar cloths. " The lady of Dundas " presented two boats for their use, and £60 were spent on providing sails and tackle for these. The garrison also were furnished with sheets and napery, barrels for water, wooden plates and ^'stoups," and an iron Digitized by VaOOQ IC xlii. PREFACE. spit for their kitchen. Two serpentines of five chambers each were sent from Leith, and other artillery was brought from Colston. The fortress served as a State prison, and was regularly gar- risoned : it was in Cromwell's possession in 1651, but was thereafter much neglected tiU on the appearance of Paul Jones in the Forth in 1779 a battery was once more erected. The next Account in this volume opens with a record of letters being sent out to the prelates and barons in the South for a Parliament to be held in Edinburgh on the 14th January, 1515-16, but if this Parliament ever sat no record of its pro- ceedings have come down to us. Communications proceeded between the Governor and Queen Margaret, who was at Morpeth, the English Com- missioners, and the French Ambassador. The last mentioned officer had a chaplain of the name of Sir Anthony Eynald, who seems to have been of a scientific or mechanical turn of mind, as he undertook to repair certain faults in the Boyal Mint, and received for his trouble £10.^ Albany showed the country that money he must have to carry on the government, and because seven of the burghs persistently refused to pay their share of the tax which had, as has been shown, been demanded several times, an officer was sent to apprise the goods of the bailies and to execute other pains and penalties. At the same time, if »P. 69. ' Digitized by VaOOQ IC PEEFACE. xliil any burgh were really in distress consideration was shown to it, and the tax on Selkirk, which amounted to £15, was paid out of the public treasury, because that town itself was "hereit be thevis and pestellence."^ What was the purport of the missives which were sent throughout the country by messengers riding at all hours of day and night it is impossible to know, but it is clear that Albany was deter- mined to leave no stone unturned to make his 'position in Scotland secure. In the beginning of February, 1515-16, John Bouskat alias Bukkat, "commissioner of artillery," and probably the same person who is sometimes styled Captain Jonet, got £60 for the expense of bringing certain artillery out of Dumbarton and Glasgow to Edin- burgh. At the same time Borthwick was busily engaged in his gun foundry in the Castle, John Drununond, the wright, and his men were pro- viding wood for gun stocks and wheels, and Hans, the gunner, was sent to Stirling " at post " for " hakbussis and stanis." Captain Jonet also received orders to move the artillery from Falkirk. Ptobably it was intended that they should be taken to Ola^ow, as Arran had again broken out in rebellion and had fortified the Castle of that place and others in the west country. By the mediation, however, of Beatoun, the Archbishop of Glasgow, hostilities were averted, and Arran » P. 70. d Digitized by VaOOQ IC xliv PREFACE. made his peace with the Governor on the 7th of March. On the 23rd April Albany was at St. Andrews, though from the Exchequer EoUs we learn that his household was at Falkland. He was probably qji a short journey, as there is the expense mentioned of a boat at the ferry of Port- incraig, near Tayport. From there he came south to Perth, where at the end of April we find him playing chess and dice. He was back at Falkland on the 3rd of May, but appears to have gone south again almost immediately, as he crossed the Forth at Queensferry on the 5th. From this date onwards for a considerable period the Accounts are chiefly occupied with details of expenses incurred in building and repairs at Holyrood, and with the payment of messengers going the Governor's innumerable errands to different noblemen. In August Albany paid a visit to the King, who was at that time in Stirling. A Parliament, of which no official record is extant, met at Edinburgh on the 15th September, which Lord Home, his brother William, and Ker of Farnhirst attended. They were at once indicted for treason, tried, and found guilty. Ker ulti- mately was allowed to get free, but the Homes were executed on the 8th and 9th October and their heads placed on the waUs of the Tolbooth, but there is no allusion to these doings in the Accounts. The Account rendered by Ogilvy of Stratherne, covering the three months from the middle of Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACR xlv October to the middle of January 1516-17, is but a short one, and does not contain any very out- standing item of interest, but the patient burrower into the byways of history and antiquities will not be left altogether unrewarded by its perusal. For instance, we learn that Captain Jonet's salary as " commissioner of artillery " amounted to £100 per annum, and that James Stewart, " keeper of the King's ships,'' had £276 sent him, but this was probably for the expense of paying the wages of the ships' crews and their general upkeep. There are notices of sundry repairs at Holyrood, the putting in of new glass to the window of Albany's own chamber, which it was also apparently thought expedient to protect with iron stanchions.^ The necessary work of cleaning out the drains in the kitchens is also duly recorded.' There is a payment at the end of the Account of £54 to a " crukit Danskyne man " for barley, meal, pease, and other victual purchased from him, and which shows that Scotland itself at this time was import- ing such absolutely necessary articles. In January 1516-17, when the next Account begins, Albany was at Falkland, and Lesley teUs us that he had a conference with some of the nobility at Perth, and appointed Lord Fleming to be Cham- berlain.* While at Falkland he received the pre- sent of a haunch of venison from England/ He » p. ©5. I • Lesley, Book ix. • P. «7. * P. 113 Digitized by VaOOQ IC xlvi PREFACE. returned to Holyrood by the beginning of March, for we find an entry of " plastere and burd " for his chamber, "quhen he wes sumthing seik." While at Holyrood he had a visit from the Chan- cellor, James Beaton, for whose use a room was specially furnished.^ On the 22nd of March letters were sent out to the barons in the westland and those north and south of the Forth, summoning them to Edinburgh " at the colar of cokkylljeis taking quhen the franche ambassatour com." The French embassies to Scotland were so frequent that it is difficult to say who this ambassador was, whether de Planis, to whom we have previously alluded, or Lafayette, who some years afterwards came on an embassy but who was certainly in Scotland about this time also, as letters were sent him on 11th September 1516.* The ambassador, whoever he was, seems to have been the bearer of a French Order with which the Governor was to be decorated : at least that is the most probable explanation of this incidental allusion to the " colar of cokkylljeis." Cockles formed the dis- tinguishing feature of the collars of more than one Order. The Order of the Ship, founded by King Louis of France in 1269, had a collar composed of cockle shells and double crescents alternately, and the Order of St. Michael, founded by Louis XI. in 1469 had a golden collar composed of scallops or cockles interlaced with one another and doubly * p. 114. I ' P. 84. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. xlvii banded, fastened on small chains of gold. Pen- dant from the collar was a badge containing an image of St. Michael slaying a dragon. The collar was of the weight of two hundred crowns of gold, and was ordered to be worn daily except when its owner was in the battle-field, in the privacy of his own family, or hunting, but even in such cases the badge itself was always to be worn suspended from a small gold chain or silk ribbon.* Of the investiture of Albany with this collar we have no details — indeed the fact of his having received it does not appear to be mentioned by any historian. The months previous to the first departure of Albany for France seem to have passed with but little incident. The repairs and building at Holy- rood and the Castle under the superintendence of Gi-osselles, the Governor's French Master of House- hold, went on with activity, and we have evidence of the energy with which De la Bastie was throw- ing himself into his new work as Warden of the Borders, an office to which he had been recently appointed, in an entry providing for aU " thevys and brokin men " to be removed from Tweeddale and Eskdale to their own country.* * Later, also, warnings were sent by his order to a lot of the Border clans, the Turnbulls, Eutherfords, Bells, Olivers, Littles, Drcksons, and Irvines." At last, Albany, having wrung a reluctant assent from the > Favine's Theatre of Honour, I * P. 120. p. 372. I » Pp. 122-123. Digitized by VaOOQ IC xlviii PREFACR Parliament, prepared to visit his beloved France — he is said in the Exchequer RoUs^ to have sailed on the 6th or 7th of June, but from the Treasurer's Accounts it would rather appear that his departure took place a few days earlier, as there is an entry on the 30th of May of 14s. to a boat that rowed my Lord Governor on shipboard. He sailed from Dumbarton, taking with him the eldest sons of several of the Scottish nobles as hostages, and amongst others of his suit Robert Borthwick, the gun-founder, appears, getting £20 " gratis at his departing at the vest sey."* Albany left a Com- mittee of Regency to govern during his absence, which he gave out was to be for four months only but which extended itself to as many years. He seems to have had a good and expeditious voyage, for by the middle of July the ship which had taken him to France had returned to Scotland from Brittany.' Hardly had Albany's back been turned on Scot- land than Margaret Tudor left London and crossed the Border, being received at Berwick by several of the nobles, including her husband, Angus, whose relations with her, however, were not at this time the most cordial. A few items in the Accounts mark the Queen's arrival. One of the servants of the Royal Household, Ciolin Campbell, who must have been specially allotted to her » VoL xiv., p. 292. I • P. 126, « P. I2ii. P. 125. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACR xlix service, got, in anticipation of her coming, a com- plete new livery of green satin trimmed with black velvet, together with red hose, a combina- tion of colour which must have been rather trying to the wearer. Sir Peter Crichton of Nauchton, the Keeper of the King's Wardrobe, was ordered to deliver to the Queen the clothing belonging to her, which seems to have been left in Edinburgh. She was the bearer also of a present for her son of some cloth of gold, no doubt destined in the future to make him a gay garment. The Account closes on September 1517 with a variety of payments, some of them of considerable amount. Upwards of £500 were paid to Margaret Crichton, the custumar of Edinburgh, of whose curious history there is a full account in the Exchequer Eolls ;* £300 were spent on the wages of a troop of forty spearmen, who were under the command of the valiant La Bastie ; and £50 was paid to a falconer, who was despatched to France with Albany's hawks and merlins, the latter being brought from Spott ; for their accommodation on board ship forty-two shillings were given to build a " kahowt," or small cabin or house, to protect them from the weather. The King's quarters in Edinburgh Castle were put in a state of better repair, £3 being given to Gavin Dunbar for this purpose, while £25 was spent in the providing of bedding and other furniture. This does not look as if the little King ' VoL xiv., Preface, pp. cxziìi.-cxxTÌii.

Margaret's maternal instincts prompted her when she arrived in Edinburgh to look after her son's surroundings and to place them on a better footing than they were before. Indeed, we see from the next Account, which begins in October 1517, a marked increase in the details of the King's wardrobe, and note with some surprise that his tailor's bill, such as it was, had not been paid "sen the feild of Flowdoun," so that Andrew Edgar must have been willing to give exceptionally long credit. The impression which the cowardly murder of the gallant La Bastie made on the country is reflected to a considerable extent in the Accounts. In the first place there is an entry of his death, fixing the exact date, unconnected with any item of expenditure, which is a very unusual occurrence in these Accounts — " The xvii day of September, obiit Labastye."* The tidings did not take long to reach the capital, and on the 20th of September letters were sent out to the prelates, peers, and commissioners of burghs, summoning them to compear in Edinburgh with all diligence. Arran was appointed Warden of the Marches in succes- sion to La Bastie, much to the indignation of » p. 14^. Digitized by VaOOQ IC PREFACE. U Angus, who had expected the office. The latter was peremptorily sammoned to come to Edin- burgh on 6th October, an order which he did not obey, and fresh letters requiring his appearance were despatched to him on the 19th and 21st November. A council of nobles was called for the 16th October, and on that day letters were again sent out summoning Parliament to meet on 18th February. On the 26th of December Home of Wedderburn and those who had aided him in the murder of La Bastie were served with summonses of treason, and measures were taken to secure the attendance of witnesses of the deed.* When Parliament met, sentence of forfeiture was passed on all who had been concerned in the murder, and Arran prepared to assemble a powerful force for a raid on the Merse. The army was appointed to meet him at Lauder on the 21st of March, and messengers were sent through the neighbouring counties to requisition oxen for the transport of tlie artillery. There seem to have been two raids, one lasting nine days and the other seven : probably these mean separate expe- ditions,* starting from Lauder against Home Castle in the one instance and Langton and Wedder- burn in the other. However that may be, there is a good deal of detail as to the constitution and armament of the force. Borthwick, the master gunner, who must by this time have » p. 152. Digitized by VaOOQ IC lii PREFACE returned from France, got £202 for the outfit of his artillery, and there is another pajment of £100 to the master of artillery, which probably also refers to Borthwick. The oxen from Lauder which were to draw the guns were to meet them at Soutra Edge, the transport at that place being in all hkelihood undertaken locally. The pomp and panoply of war was by no means absent : one standard was borne by David Waiche or Veitch ; that of Sir John Hamilton cost £6 8s., and must have been a handsome flag. The Eoyal standard itself, which was borne by the Hereditary Standard . bearer, the Constable of Dundee (who received £100 as his fee), cost £4 for the taffety of which it was made, 26s. 8d. for red and green silk fringes, and £8 for gold to emblazon it with, the painter getting £5 for the work of making it. There are many curious small details mentioned, which though not of any historical importance are interesting in their way. Thus we find a payment of lOd. for baiting the oxen that drew the guns to Soutra; 8s. to certain French minstrels that played one night ; 10s. to a man that had his horse hurt in the carriage of the artillery, and 2s.- for its keep for four days. The " foot bands " both of Sir John Hamilton and Captain Glen had supper one night at Soutra at the cost of 22s. 6d. and 78. respectively. We find, too, that though projectiles for the guns still kept their old name of "gunstanis" they were now made of lead, 148. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. mi being paid for the purchase of that metal for the purpose. Gunpowder was kept in leather bags, and apparently served out loose, the cartridge form of ammunition not yet having come into use. The result of the raid is a matter of history — while the castles and mansions of the Homes were given up to Arran the principal malefactors them- selves fled to England and ultimately recovered their possessions when the party of Angus became dominant in the country. Meanwhile their houses were put in charge of officers of the Government, and at the end of this Account there are pay- ments amounting to upwards of £100 to George Tait, Constable of Wedderburn, besides a consider- able quantity of victual, and £22 for gunners' wages. The raid was not accompanied by much, if any, actual fighting, but there is a curious entry of £4 paid by order of the Lords of Council to Henry Wardlaw of Kilbaberton apparently as compensation for the death of one of his men, " quhilk wes slayne under the grete gwn at the raid of Weddirbum." * There is nowahiatus in the Accounts, which do not recommence till the 5th of June 1522, thus leaving nearly four years unaccounted for. We thus have no reference to any of the stirring events which took place within that period : nothing about the great struggle for supremacy which took place between the rival factions of Arran and Angus, > p. 164. Digitized by VaOOQ IC Uv PREFACE. and which' ended in the street fight of "Cleanse the Causeway," resulting in the overthrow of the former. Margaret and Angus soon became at daggers drawn, and the former, incensed at her husband's neglect and his indifference to her charms, was determined to have a divorce from him. In this, however, she did not carry her brother Henry with her, Angus being essential in the English interests; Margaret herself was drawn to the other side and turned to Albany for assist- ance. She wrote him a letter with her own hand entreating his return to Scotland, and ultimately he was prevailed upon to agree to her wishes. He left France and arrived in Scotland on the 19th November 1521, disembarking at the Gareloch and proceeding from there to Edinburgh, which he entered on 3rd December accompanied by the Queen. Angus and his brother George retired to France, indeed they were probably outlawed, and Gavin Douglas sought refuge in London, where he died the following year. Albany again resumed the Eegency, and a warm correspondence ensued with Henry Vlil., who was very angry at seeing the French influence once more paramount hi Scotland. He went so far as to send a few English ships to the Forth, which did some damage, but were before long obliged to return without having accomplished anything of importance. Albany was determined to do everything in his power to Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Iv put the country in a position to defy her Southern enemies, and pages of the Accounts dealing with the summer of 1622 are taken up with entries relating to the holding of wappenshaws and the summoning of a Parliament which was to meet on the 18th of July. Henry having by means of an army under the Earl of Shrewsbury invaded the districts of Merse and Teviotdale, it was deter- mined to raise a force which would put a stop to such invasions. A summons was accordingly sent out commandnig the lieges to meet the Governor on Boslin moor, and Albany advanced at the head of a well-equipped force said to have consisted of eighty thousand men, having as his objective the town of Carlisle. Having got as far as Annan he entered into communication with the English Warden, Dacre, and through the politic representa- tions of that able statesman he was induced to disband his forces without a blow having been struck. Nothing of all this, however, appears in the Accounts, which go on with their rather monotonous tale of summonses and messengers. They deal with many local disputes, important and interesting no doubt in their day, but to most of which we have not now the clue. After a stay of eleven months in Scotland Albany left for France on 26th October 1522, and he was hardly gone when Henry sent a herald to treat for peace and to try to undermine Albany's influence. The latter expostulated against this Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ivi PREFACE proceeding on the part of the English King, and letters arrived from him to George Douglas and to Lord Dacre on the 12th November.^ Henry, find- ing his plans frustrated, prepared to assume hos- tilities, and his intentions must have been known in Scotland long before they were put into effect. In the beginning of April 1523 proclamation was made throughout the southern counties that all men should be prepared to take the field whenever the beacons were lit, showing that the English were advancing.^ A Parliament was summoned for the 13th of May, and on the 17th letters were sent throughout the country " for assembling the haill power of the realme," showing that' matters were considered serious. On the 7th of June intimation was sent to the Chancellor that the Englishmen were gathering fast, and to Arran that they were actually entering the country." On 19th June a summons was issued for the army to assemble at Deridounlaws, the exact locality of which is uncertain, on the 23rd of that month. This seems very short notice for the assembling of such an array, and it does not seem to have been carried out. On the 5th of July intimation was sent to the religious houses and to the sheriffs of the counties advising them to pro- vide oxen and twenty days' provisions on ten days' warning. On the 16th July a curious step * p. 206. I * ^- 2'*- • P. 211. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ivii was taken : not content with taking every human means to ensure the safety of the kingdom, the Government resolved to invoke the aid of religion, and accordingly orders were sent to the Bishops that they should hold " general processions" within their dioceses '" for the weillfare of the realme, prosperite of our soverane lord, and sure hayme- cuming of my lord governour." ' But the prelates within the sheriffdom of Edinburgli were not to be content with this professional display of their zeal for the welfare of the country. They were, in addition, to send their oxen to the park at Stirling, there to remain at pasture until required 4 at the same time all persons were strictly prohibited from selling weapons to Englishmen or to import them across the Border. In the beginning of August further measures were taken for the expected hos- tilities. Oxen and horses were requisitioned for transport purposes, some ships in Leith were arrested and searched for tallow, with which it was believed they were laden, and persons were warned to come to the army bringing with them thirty days' victual. The rendezvous was ap- pointed to be on the 22nd September at Threip- land, the upland moor country lying between Stow and Lauder, presumably near what is now called Threipwood. Energetic and bold though the Scots had been in thus equipping a formidable force, they soon 1 p. 216. Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ivui PREFACE. found that the. English commander, the Earl of Surrey, was at the head of too strong an army to enable them to give him battle in earnest. They had to content themselves with harassing him in every possible way, and they did so with such effect as to extort the admiration of that leader himself for their prowess. But their numbers were too few. Surrey was at the head of ten thousand troops.* He was able to penetrate as far as Jedburgh, which was stormed and given up to flames. Further they did not get. The sack of Jedburgh took place on the 24th September 1523, either on that very day, according to most authorities, or on the 20th of the month, as is distinctly stated in the Accounts.* Albany arrived at Dumbarton bringing with him a certain amount of men and guns from the King of France. On the 25th letters were received from him in Edin- burgh announcing his arrival. It is worthy of note that among the first things that was done on the receipt of the tidings was to send " Clarence, Inglisman," by which designation we may under- stand Clarenceux Herald, along with the Scottish Pursuivant Carrick, to Dumbarton, indicating that even at this stage, when active hostilities were being carried on on the Border, diplomatic negotia- tions were not suspended between the two countries. The two heralds reached the end of their journey > Loalie says twenty thousand. I * P. 223, Digitized by VaOOQ IC PREFACE. lix in safety, and on the Ist October, in Dumbarton, Carrick receives the sum of twenty-eight shillings for the safe conveyance of Qarenceux to Lord Maxwell, the Warden of the West Marches. Whatever pacific negotiations may have been in progress they did not deter Albany from entering in his turn on the offensive. He had brought . forces with him from France, and he considered himself bound to employ them. He had also com- mand of a certain amount of money, and this he used with some efiect among the Scottish nobles, though it is clear they were not enthusiastic about an invasion of England however willing they might be to defend their own country within its confines. Matters, however, were pushed on apace. Measures were taken in the beginning of October to gather in men, transport, and provisions.^ Lord Tester's chaplain received orders to employ the people in his district in the mending of the roads, so that the artillery might have easy passage. The burghs of Linlithgow, Stirling, Haddington, Perth, Dundee, St. Andrews, and other places, were called upon to provide tents for the force, which was summoned to meet in Douglasdale on the 18th of October.* Proclamation was made that every man taking part in the expedition was to wear a St. Andrew Cross in white, both in front and on the back of his dress, and all communica- ^Fìp. 225-226. 1 > Lesley, Book ix. e Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ix PEEFACK tion with the English was prohibited on pain of death.^ Discipline was to be strictly enforced, and no looting on the way allowed. If any of the soldiery " reft or tuke ony stuff be the gait cum- mand to the oist or at thare returning thae suld ansuer thairfore of thare aune gudis." ^ The malt- men of Leith and the Canongate were ordered to have a sufficient quantity of ale ready for the camp, and the ferrymen of Leith, Kinghorn, and Queensferry were forbidden to charge more than the usual dues of passage to the many persons who were flocking to the Governor's standard. Notwithstanding what Lesley says about the rendezvous being at Douglasdale on the 18th October, Albany did not leave Edinburgh till the 22nd, and then proceeded towards Newark ; and it was not till some days after that that the army was finally got together. So late as the 27th we find the inhabitants of the districts about Dalkeith, Soutra, and Jedburgh charged to have corn ready to sell to the forces at the rate of 10s. the boll, and 8d. the thraive for fodder. As the sheaf was at the same time valued at 2d., it would seem that there were not more than four sheaves in the thraive. On the 28th October the fisher folk of Musselburgh, Gullane, North Berwick, and Dunbar were requisitioned to send fish to the camp, and boats containing bread, ale, fish, butter and cheese were arranged to be sent front St. Andrews and ' V. 227. 1 » A Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ixì Dundee.^ The camp at this time was at Eyemouth, but it was soon broken up and an advance made into England, siege being laid to Wark Castle. An assault was made about the 4th of November, the brunt of which was borne by the French auxiliaries, supported by the artillery. The Scot- tish troops themselves, however, showed no great heart for the contest. The assault failed, the weather became bad, and the rivers got so swollen that the retreat of the army was threatened to be cut off. In these circumstances Albany withdrew his forces, and the large army which had been collected with so much preparation was allowed to disperse. They left about three hun- dred men dead in England, chiefly Frenchmen, and though detached parties may have made some successful forays on their own account, the result of the expedition as a whole was disappointing in the extreme. No details of the fighting and the storming of Wark Castle are to be gathered from the Accounts. The last date referred to when the army was in the field is the 2nd November, when an answer to a letter from the Earl of Surrey was despatched to him. We next pick up the sequence of events on the 9th of that month when summonses were sent out for a Parliament to meet on the 17th. As might be expected, the proceedings were not characterised by much cordiality : mutual recrim- ^ p. 231. Digitized by VjOOQ IC Ixii PREFACE. inations were thrown about, the dismissal of the French troops was insisted on, a loan of £40,000 which Albany asked was positively refused him, and his other demand for leave once more to go to France was only granted on condition that if he .did not return by the 31st August the league with France and his own regency were to be considered at an end. Albany also stipulated that Gonzelles, or as he is styled in the Accounts, Groselez, should have the appointment of Treasurer during his absence. While this was agreed to, it was evidently with no good grace, and as a matter of fact the Frenchman never appears to have intro- mitted in any serious way with the funds of the country ; no Account was ever given up by him : the only mention of him in connection with money is in April 1524, just before Albany's final departure, when it is mentioned that £1923 was delivered to him " the tyme of my lord Gover- nouris last remanying in France,"^ but whether this means that the payment was made to him during the absence of Albany and before his return in September 1523, or whether it was Government money which was put into his hands as Treasurer at the time when the Governor left in 1524, is not clear. On the 25th April the Account closes with notes of the customary official fees. We miss sixteen months before the next Account, which is again given up by Campbell of » P, 237. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PEEFACB. ixiii Lundy, opens. It is dated on the 25th August 1525. ' In the interval had taken place the Erec- tion of the King and the formal declaration of the termination of the Eegency of Albany. Angus arrived in Scotland once more, and steadily set himself to the consolidation of his power and the supremacy of the great Douglas faction. Early in 1525 arrangements were come to whereby the Government was entrusted to a Secret Council and the custody of the King committed to a certain succession of persons, as has previously been detailed. The year 1526 saw Margaret divorced from Angus and married to Henry Stewart, after- wards Lord Methven, and the power of Angus fairly in the ascendant. In June, Campbell of Lundy ceased to be Treasurer, but his successor in office, the Master of Glencaime, continues the Accounts for a few months. It cannot be said that they at this time contain much of general interest : we have no allusion to the attempted release of the King by Scott of Buccleuch in July, nor, indeed, is it likely that such an incident would find its way into the Accounts. They contain, however, more tidings of the King's movements than at any previous period in this reign, but these have been already alluded to. Household expenses, clothing and liveries for the household are the principal items dealt with in the various entries. Again the curtain falls on the Accounts for the space of two years. When they are re-opened on Digitized by VjOOQ IC Ixiv PREFACE. 29th August 1529 the political conditions of Scot- land were much changed. Angus had attained to the very pinnacle of power, and had been suddenly dashed from it by the escape of the King in June 1528. The great party of the Douglases was broken up, and their lands were forfeited by a Parliament which sat in the September following the King's escape. To get possession of these was not, however, such an easy task, and James had to submit to failure of his endeavours to take the castles of Douglas, Coldstream, and TantaUon. At last, however, Angus was driven out of Scotland by the aid of Argyll, and took refuge in England. A pacification between England and Scotland to endure for five years was ratified on the 14th December 1528, immediately after which the King took measures to bring the unruly Border land into a state of subjection. Many of the barons and leading men in that country were arrested and imprisoned, and the King himself at the head of a large force made an expedition which resulted in the hanging of Johnnie Arm- strong of Gilnockie, the famous Border chief and raider, with about fifty of his followers. This took place in the summer of 1529, certainly some time before August : at this time also rebellions in the Orkneys and the Western Isles were success- fully put down. The Accounts here and there reflect the strong measures which were being taken against thieves. On the 30th of May 1580 Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACR Ixv 30s. was given to a messenger for bringing a thief from the Warden, Lord Maxwell.^ Two " Scottis theifis " were brought in from the laird of Sandi- lands in June, and the " lokman," or executioner, of Edinburgh got 14s. for going to linUthgow in August to hang certain thieves. It is interesting at this time to catch a glimpse of Lady Glamis, who was within the next few years to suffer death on a charge of conspiracy against the King's life. On the 18th of February, 1529-30, there is an entry which tells us that she was then summoned by a messenger, but why this was done is not stated. Her husband had died on the 8th of August 1528, and within four months of her husband's death she was summoned, together with other persons, to answer to a charge of having given assistance to Angus in convocating the King's liegetf against their Sovereign. Li September 1529 she had obtained a letter of licence to pass to parts beyond the sea, but it is evident that she did not cease her political intrigues on behalf of the Douglases, for which she must have been summoned at the date above mentioned. Some time afterwards her goods and estates were forfeited, and in July 1531 Gavin Hamilton got a gift of their escheat.^ Into her subsequent career this is not the time to enter. » p. 379. • Tytler, iv..

The last Account in the present volume is given up by William Stewart, the Dean of Glasgow and Provost of Lincluden, and includes the space of not quite a year from 2nd October 1530 to 6th September 1531. Prom the very commencement of it we see that the King is now growing up and taking an interest in manly pursuits and the government of his kingdom. Not only do the wardrobe accounts betoken a decided increase in the amount of clothing purchased for the King, but amongst them we find a goodly quantity of arms both for war and sport. In October and December 1530 he gets bows from an English bowyer ;* the Scots never excelled either in the manufacture or the practice of the weapon. A dozen of tilting spears are purchased in January, 1530-31.* In the spring of 1530 there are many purchases of swords of all descriptions — '* armyng swords " and " half lang swords" ; so many of these were provided that it is probable they were destined as presents ; indeed, in one case we are told that a " twa handit swerde " was given to the master cook, a somewhat strange gift for such an official, and David Crichton was the recipient of another weapon of less formidable dimensions. It is curious to note the prices of these weapons — six arming swords cost 68. 8d. each, a very moderate sum, while four others of the saine description cost 10s. each ; the " half lang " swords cost 30s., » p. 407. I • p. 411. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACl?. Ixvli and the two-handed one the same amount, while the one given to Crichton cost a pound, as in all probability it had some ornamental workmanship on it. It must, indeed, have l>een a common practice for the King to give presents of swords to his friends, as William Smeberd, the armourer, was paid £41 7s. for these weapons " gevhi away be his Grace to sindry personis."* Five rapiers costing a pound each were provided for His Majesty's use in April : these new fashioned weapons had only just come in, and mark the period when the use of defensive armour was beginning to go out, as their light blades without an edge would have been of no use when employed against a steel-clad opponent. Perhaps they were meant more for ornament than for real use ; at all events they were richly decorated, and the blades seem to have been interchangeable, as there is an entry of "a pare of hiltis to the Kingis rapper," which cost twenty shillings, implying that a good deal of fine work must have been expended on them.* A steel bonnet enriched with gold was provided as a head piece, and perhaps some of the eleven ostrich feathers which were purchased at a cost of eleven shillings — a cheap price considering that such articles must have been somewhat rare then — ^may have been fast,ened on to it. Gloves at 32s. look rather dear, but they may have been gloves of plate, or, more likely, skin richly em- » p. 417. I • P. 422. Digitized by VjOOQ IC Ixviii PREFACE. broidered with silk. A '' targate " of gold, costing no less than £40, may have been an ornament to be worn in a velvet bonnet, but it was an enormous price for such an article, far exceeding that paid in former Accounts, and one cannot help thinking that the clerk who made out the Account must have put £40 for 408. The general prices of James's jewellery, however, are far in advance of his father's. Adam Stewart provided him with a chain and a tablet for £40, and there was another chain which cost £64 19s. "by the fassoun," which indicates that this did not include the payment to the craftsman for making it.^ The wardrobe, stable, and kennel accounts are all interesting at this period, as showing the gradual development of the King from a boy sorely kept in check by the tyranny of his relatives to a young man of eighteen freed from restraint and determined to take an active part in the life of his country. Some of the payments by precept of the King . to sundry persons at this time are worthy of note. Erskine of Halton, the King's Secretary, received the large sum of £966 as the expenses of an embassy to Eome, an expedition which is not alluded to by the generaUty of historians. John Ballentyne gets £30 " for translating of the crony- kill." This ecclesiastic, who has made a name for himself in Scottish literature, held a small post in »P. 423. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ixix the Eoyal Household as "Clerk of the Comptis " ; these were probably the Household Accounts, and not those of the Treasurer, which were under the charge of the clerk to the Treasurer. The latter was in a better position, drawing an annual salary of £13 6s. 8d, while the former, if he is to be identified with that " Johne Bannatyne " whose name appears at the end of this Account,* only got £4. He was employed by the King, who was no classical scholar, to make a translation of Hector Boece's history, which had been published in Paris in 1526, and he was now engaged in this task. This seems to be the first payment which was made to him, but others will be met with in future Accounts. James was not wanting in con- sideration for his mother, notwithstanding her very erratic conduct, as we find £300 was paid to her during the currency of this Account. Among other payments to individuals may be mentioned one of £30 to his doctor, Arbuthnot, when lying ill. He was a fairly well paid practitioner, for we find him some time before receiving £240 in fees,^ and in this Account he again receives £391.* The King's personal expenses, apart from his clothing and payments to particular persons, are, unfortunately, not given in detail Had they been they would have enabled us to form a valuable estimate of his character, and would have thrown » p. 449. I « P. 439. »P. 329. Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ixx PEEPACE. much light on his daily life. All that we are told is that for " small expenses " he received within the year from October 1530 to September 1531 the sum of £1 868, besides other payments amount- ing to £85, which seems a very handsome allow- ance for petty cash. Tliere are various items relating to the good rule of the realm, and the determination of the King to put down crime of a serious nature may be incidentally mentioned. On the 27th March 1531 letters were sent to the Earls of Argyll and Montrose and Lord Erskine to come to Edinburgh " for justifying of the lard of TuUyallane." ^ This refers to a particularly atrocious murder committed by Blacater of TuUiallan, assisted by a priest named Lothian, on Sir James Inglis, the abbot of Culross. Both of them suffered the extreme penalty of the law, Lothian having first been " degraded " from his ecclesiastical position — this the Bishops of St. Andrews and Brechin were sum- moned to do. The feature which bulks most largely in the concluding pages of this volume is undoubtedly the measures which were taken with regard to the Isles in 1531. In the summer of 1629 there had been much disturbance there. The Clandonald of Isla, assisted by the Macleans, had made a descent in force upon the lands of Argyll, and retaliations had taken place. The matter grew 'P. 443. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PEEFACE. Ixxi serious, and Sir John Campbell of Calder, Argyll's brother, asked help from the Government to assist him in putting down the insurrection. It was inconvenient to provide men at the season of the year, as it was just harvest time, but a certain amount of artillery and ammunition was sent.^ At the same time a herald was sent to Alexander of Isla with instructions to treat with him for his submission. The negotiations, however, proved unavailing, and Argyll was instructed to proceed against the rebels without delay. Nothing, how- ever, was done till the spring of the next year, 1530, when preparations were made for an expedi- tion, of which, however, we hear nothing in the Accounts. They had the effect of bringing in a certain number of submissions to the King, but matters still continued unsatisfactory, and in the meantime the Earl of Argyll died. In November 1530 it was determined that the King should pro- ceed in person to the Isles the next spring at the head of an army, and preparations were imme- diately made for this purpose. The sinews of war were to be supplied by the clergy and the burghs, and towards the end of this volume we have a detailed account of the tax levied for this purpose. After deducting expenses the total sum collected was £3457. This amount was not all collected at once, but was spread over three terms. Preparations were begun to be made for the 1 pp. 372-373. Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ixxii PREFACE. expedition on the 18th December 1530, when letters for men and ships were sent out to various places in the country. Similar letters were issued on the 19th and 31st of the following month, and on the 1st of May. By this time tidings of these preparations had reached the Isles, and some of the leading insurgents thought it was time to make their peace with the King. Alexander of Isla and Maclean of Dowart both hastened to make their submission. When negotiations were first opened is not precisely stated, but they were con- ducted not through Argyll but by means of a mes- senger direct to the Government. This messenger is stated by Gregory^ to have been "a worthy burgess of Ayr," but he is called in the Accounts " David Blare, pursuivant." For bringing the isles- men's communications and carrying back the answer of the Lords of Council he gets £10,* and he had another journey from Edinburgh a little later, for which he received £6. The result was that the two chiefs above mentioned came per- sonally to the King and tendered their submission, which was received upon conditions.' So liberal and loyal, indeed, were the offers of Alexander of Isla that the King, suspecting that Archibald, fourth Earl of Argyll, was fighting more for his own aggrandisement than for the Bang's sovereignty, ^ History of the Western High- lands, 140. »P,468. ' These conditions will be found in detail in Gregory's History nt «up. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ixxiii received him into high favour, and deprived Argyll of his oflGice. This, however, did not hap- pen till a period shortly after the time at which the present Accounts close, and must be dealt with in a future volume. Meanwhile it is necessary to consider what was done with regard to the pro- jected expedition of 1531. After the submission of the chiefs, to which reference has been made, it was felt that the back of the rebellion was broken and that it was not so formidable as to require the personal presence of the King with the expedition. Its leadership was therefore entrusted to Argyll and James, Earl of Moray, the natural brother of the King. The outfit of the fleet was proceeded with, and there is a detailed account of the provisions and liquor supplied to them.^ How many ships were collected is not stated, but the expense of the hire of a ship may be learnt from one of the entries, which informs us that four boats belonging to Anstruther and Urail each got £36 for one month's duty; this probably included the wages of the mariners, but food would be provided for them by the Govern- ment. These, however, must have been small vessels, for of two others which were also hired one got £225 and the other £360 for a two months' commission. There seems to have been some special difficulty about these Anstruther and Crail boats. They were originally requisitioned on the » Pp. 469-462, Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ixxiv PREFACE. 9 th of May, but owing to the changed aspect of affairs it was probably found that they were unne- cessary. At all events it is certain that for some reason or another they did not take part in the expedition. Meanwhile their hire had actually been paid, and the authorities naturally thought that the services not having been rendered the money should be repaid. Accordingly, on the 17th of August, a messenger was sent to the towns above mentioned " to charge certane botemen to refound to the thesaurar money tane for the wage of thare botis quhilk suld have passit in the Ilis and servit not tharefor." But it was evidently difficult to get those Fifeshire sea folk to refund money which they either had in their pockets or had spent, and on the 3rd September a pursuivant was sent with the same demand. Whether the Treasurer ever saw his money again we are not informed. The ships seem to have been provided with a sufficient quantity of artillery. "The laird of Galston" gets £100 for "certane munytiouns" purchased by him in France, and £140 additional for their carriage and his care of them : and £260 were spent altogether in the purchase of gun- powder, though it does not seem that all these supplies were actually taken to the Isles, as we find both the powder, most of which had been purchased from Dutchmen, and the supplies which had come fron^ France being carried up from Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ixxv Leith to Edinburgh Castle.^ That artillery was taken to the Isles is certain, as Hans, the gunner, and a Frenchman called Laurence were sent in charge of it, and twelve "hakbutis" are men- tioned as forming part of the armament of the fleet.* In expectation of the King himself accompanying the ships to the west, preparations had been made for his accommodation. The master of works began to build a '* cahute," or cabin, for him on the " oureloft,** or poop, of one of the vessels. The Accounts close with a curious entry of a sum of £3524 for silver plate for the King ; but though it is found under the heading of the furnishing of the ships, it is hardly conceivable that James would buy such a handsome dinner service when on board a vessel. Not only would it have been very much in the way, but it would have formed a constant source of temptation both to the crew of the vessel itself and to the enemies with whom they might expect to be engaged when they reached their destination. The list of articles is curious, and they were purchased from Nicholas Cannavett, evidently a Frenchman, who is described as " comptroUar of Dunbar." There were three dozen silver plates " of sindry sortis," two dozen " dischis," two silver chandeliers, and three high chandeliers silviergilt, a salt fat of silvergilt, with a cover, three round and two square *P. 461. I «P. 459. Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ixxvi PREFACE. " trunscheouris," or ashets, as distinguished from eating plates — these were all silver gilt, and ap- parently had a ** salt fat in ane newk of the samyn," that is, perhaps, a hollowed cavity in the rim of the ashet in which salt was put ; a silver gilt cup completes the list, which forms a very handsome inventory of dinner table plate. KoYAL Palaces and Castles. There seems to have been a good deal of building and repairs on the Eoyal residences during the time with which the present volume deals. The Palace of Holyrood House had for years been more or less in the hands of masons ; but for some years previous to the battle of Flodden not much had been done in the way of erecting new buildings. On the 12th November 1505, Walter Neilson, the master mason, was paid the last instal- ment of two hundred merks for completing the tower at Holyrood House.^ Where this tower was exactly situated is now a matter of doubt ; the oldest portion of the present building is the north- west tower, which is the one built, or at least completed, during the reign of James V. But James IV. undoubtedly inhabited the part which he built, and his eldest son was born there. The probability is that James IV. began the tower and finished it to a certain height, building at the ' Treaaurers' Aocounts, vol. iii., p. 86. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ixxvii same time a range of low buildings immediately to the south. Whatever may have actually taken place, workmen were again engaged on the Palace within two years after Flodden, and as they were then putting in windows under the superintendence of a Frenchman named John Belloun, the building itself must have been already erected. Indeed, from the entries in the first of the present Accounts it would rather appear that the operations undertaken at this time were not so much of the nature of new buildings as the reparation of old ones, preparatory to making the place a comfort- able residence in view of the arrival of the new governor. The gardens were put in order and the Palace itself pointed and to some extent at least re-slated.^ A new "turnpike" stair was being built in May 1516, Master Thomas Hamilton, probably the ancestor of the Haddington Family, supplying some material.' Later in the same year there were some repairs made on the two kitchens, and "the Squyaris stair" was taken down and another put up. During the following years we meet with entries relating to sundry small repairs done on the Palace, but in 1523 a considerable sum was spent on it, chiefly in the erection of new stables.' We have another set of accounts for repairs, none of them of very great importance, in 1527.* In the years 1529-30, however, the expenses con- » p. 16. I » Pp. 219-221. «P. 78. I * Pp. 326-327. Digitized by VaOOQ IC Ixxviii PREFACE. iiected with Holyrood rise to large figures, no less a sum than £1568 having been spent on the '' bigging and reparatioun of the new hous besyde the abbay " ; though why " hors mete " should be included under the head of '' uther reparationis " is difficult to say ; and in the following year again a similar large sum of £1466 was provided for the same buildings. The details of all this expendi- ture are not given, but it is possible they may be found in the Accounts of the Masters of Work which exist at present in H.M. Register House. Throughout the Accounts may be noticed many entries relating to the repair of the Castles of Edinburgh and Stirling and the Palace of Falk- land. The first named especially came in for a large share of attention, as it had to be made habitable for the young King who was practically held in captivity there. In 1617 large repairs were made on David's Tower, a tall and strong fortress which had been erected by David 11. in the fourteenth century on the north side of the Castle. It had evidently got into a state of much disrepair, as we read of joists having fallen down and new chimneys having to be built.^ It is singular how we do not hear of more repairs on this tower at a later date, as it is said that on All Saints* Day 1525 it was struck by lightning, and the apartments of the Queen mother set fire to, Margaret herself barely escaping with her life. » pp. 120, 121. Digitized by VjOOQ IC PREFACE. Ixxix There are also several entries relating to Stirling Castle and Falkland, but none of them call for special remark. I have once again to express my sense of obliga- tion to Dr. Maitland Thomson and the Rev. John Anderson for much valuable assistance in the preparation of this volume. Mr. Joseph Davidson, of the Advocates' Library, is, as before, responsible for the Index, a work involving much care, while Mr. Mackenzie, my assistant, has laboured most patiently in the task of transcription, which in the case of some of these accounts was rendered more difficult than usual owing to the rather delapidated condition in which the page» of the books are.
