Document 5/7/0 (CDS, ii, no. 569)

Description
Brian fitz Alan represents that the king lately appointed Master William of Dumfries chancellor of Scotland; but no order has as yet come to any of the Guardians to deliver, or Master William to receive, the seal, up to Monday before St Valentine’s Day, whereby justice is delayed. He begs the king’s commands forthwith, for many letters have come from the English chancery to the chancellor of Scotland and the delay causes great damage.
