Pope Innocent IV writes to the bishop of Glasgow, his church being a special daughter of the Roman Church with no intermediary, that at the instance of Pope Urban, his predecessor, he grants to him and his clerics especially that they may be brought to trial or examination outside the kingdom of Scotland by the letters of no one, unless at the apostolic see for those troubles which they are not able to terminate suitably in the kingdom, except if a legate a latere might have been delayed in a neighbouring province. He also establishes in perpetuity whatever liberties, immunities or special indulgences were indulged to him or his church by his predecessors.
