Notes
Barrow included this charter, which was partially quoted in James Dalrymple's 1705 work, as a document in RRS, i, but only as a 'lost act' in Charters of David I. As a general rule, I have taken a liberal stance on the inclusion of charters for which only some of the text and witnesses survive, and for that reason, I have given this document an entry. [-MHH]
