Note. — We have not included in our Bibliography the " Crockat MS." so often
quoted by Stenhouse. We have failed to find any trace of it, and
consequently cannot verify its contents.
The " Straloch," the " Blaikie," and the " Leyden " have proved
equally unattainable, but in each case we have seen trustworthy trans-
cripts of at least a portion of the contents.
It would be very desirable to ascertain where these MSS. (if still in
existence) can be found.
In quoting from Authorities, the original spelling has in all cases
been retained.
