Description
Brother John, abbot of Newbattle, and the convent of the same place, by the consent and assent of their whole convent, have resigned and quitclaimed to William Bisset, his knight and heir, or his assignees, the whole demand and whole claim which applies to them or was able to apply in that land which belonged to Resum son of Robert in the tenement of Mertoun (BWK) with all its rights and pertinents. It is to be held and had by William and his heirs and assignees in perpetuity. The monks recognize this resignation and quitclaim of the land and acknowledge that they made it on the account of the need of their monastery because Sir William and his heirs or assignees will render to them forty shillings of sterling at the feast of St James the apostle every year in perpetuity for the resignation and quitclaim. And if happens that the monks go against the present resignation and quitclaim, they wish and grant that specified penalties will be occur. [damaged]
