SCOTTISH SUPPLICATIONS TO ROME
and Smalham (^15 sterling), howsoever void, to monastery of
Dryburg (£260 sterling).
Confimatio
Item: Lately John de Nudre, esquire (armiger), and Isabella his wife,
Dunkeld diocese, granted and donated from land of Cambo, said
diocese, to abbot and convent of St Colme’s Inch, said diocese, 10
marks Scots and other goods for a mass daily (diebus singulis)
throughout the year in perpetuity for the souls of said John and
Isabella, their parents, progenitors and benefactors to be celebrated
by said abbot and convent as is more fully contained in a certain
contract. But the abbot and convent doubt validity of the above and
fear that they may be molested by heirs and successors of John and
Isabella, therefore James king of Scots in person of said abbot and
convent supplicates that Pope would ratify above donation of 10
marks by apostolic authority.
Fiat ut petitur pro omnibus tribus et committatur. O.

Dispensatio Matrimonialis
William de Lawedre, layman, burgess of Edynburgh, St Andrews
diocese, and Agnes Rode, daughter of late John Rode of Edynburgh,
desire to be joined in matrimony in face of Holy Mother Church,
but because of spiritual relationship arising from the fact that Robert
de Lawedre, father of William, was godfather of Agnes, they cannot
fulfil their desire without apostolic dispensation. It is supplicated
that Pope would dispense them to contract matrimony per verba
legitime de presenti in face of the church and to remain in the same
notwithstanding above impediment, declaring offspring to be bom
legitimate.
Fiat ut petitur. O.
Item: David K[e]nedy, layman, and Margaret de Gordon, mulier,
Glasgow diocese, desire as above but require apostolic dispensation
because of impediment of consanguinity, in that they are related in
second and third degrees of consanguinity, and also from the fact
