Document 2/7/100 (Inchaff. Chrs., no. 119)
- Description
- Robert, bishop of Glasgow, states that in compassion for the plunderings, burning, and innumerable afflictions which the abbot and convent of Inchaffray had suffered through war, and desirous of relieving, so far as he could, their poverty and low estate, grants to them power to convert to their use, on the resignation or death of the rector, the church of Balfron (STL) in his diocese, the patronage of which church Sir Thomas of Cremanan, knight, had charitably granted them. Every defect, if there were any, in Sir Thomas’s grant he supplies out of the plenitude of his ordinary power. He reserves the episcopal and archidiaconal rights, and states that the monastery need not appoint a vicar, but may cause the church to be served by a simple secular chaplain, or by one of their own canons.
