Description
These are the damages done to the house of Coldstream by the noble prince the king of England and Scotland, on the Wednesday next after the Annunciation of the Virgin, the year of grace 1296, by loyal and faithful persons sworn and examined in the presence of Sir John, the king’s treasurer, and brother Walter, his companion, and others of the king’s council, viz.: by Walter, master of the same house, brothers Adam, Alan, Alan, Robert, Alan, and Adam, brothers of the same house, who say, upon their verdict that they sustained damage on the same day aforesaid, through the coming of the king, viz., 48 quarters of wheat, price of each quarter five shillings, and of rye 40 quarters, price of each quarter four shillings, and of barley and malt 56 quarters, price of each quarter five shillings, and of oats 80 quarters, price of each quarter two shillings. The amount of the corn, 50 pounds. Also of ewes, four hundred and fourscore and seventeen, with as many lambs, price of each sheep with the lamb, eight pennies; and 100 sheep, price of each sheep eight pennies; of eleven score hogs, price of each six pennies, and of oxen and cows seven score and nine, price of each three shillings, and of young beasts 40, price of each eighteen pennies; and of pigs 64, price of each ten pennies; and of work horse 24, price of each five shillings. The amount of beasts, 62 pounds 15 shillings. Also, let it be remembered that the orchard of Coldstream used to be worth yearly in common years 100 shillings, not counting the consumption of the house; and since the king cannot estimate the destruction of the said orchard, let it be left to the arrangement of the king’s council. By the destruction of houses within the court and without, of carts, ploughs, and timber, 100 shillings. The sum total, 117 pounds fifteen shillings; of which the house has received 15 quarters of wheat, and fifteen quarters of beans, and 16 quarters of malt, by the hand of Peter the clerk; and by the hand of the treasurer six pounds in money. Price of each quarter of wheat, ten shillings. Price of each quarter of beans, seven shillings eight pennies. Price of each quarter of malt, seven shillings. Sir Hugh of Cressingham, treasurer of Scotland, shall cause to be delivered to them 700 sheep, to arrive from the county of Atholl, which Sir Robert Cameron, sheriff of Atholl, has caused to be delivered to him, price of each eight pennies; and sixteen oxen, price of each three pennies, of the forty oxen which he caused also to come from the same county, and the other 24 oxen are delivered to the king’s larder. The amount of the money, and of the price of the wheat, beans, malt, oxen, and sheep above-mentioned, 50 pounds, eleven shillings, eight pennies, which amount Sir Hugh is bound to restore and pay in the wardrobe. And that sum deducted from the above-mentioned sum total, the sum which is due to them is 67 pounds, three shillings, four pennies.
