9472Edinburgh; 19 August 1802. 4to 3 pp. Bifolium. Very good on lightly-aged paper. Minimal damage has been caused to the second leaf affecting two or three unimportant words of text by the breaking of the red wax seal. Addressed by Guthrie 'To Charles Sharpe of Hoddam Esqr Hoddam Castle Provenance Grand Master for Dumfries Shire'. Small circular red ink postmark. Docketed. Guthrie's letter in a secretarial hand but signed and with an initialed postscript by him covers the two centre pages.

'The funds of the Grand Lodge are at present very much Exhausted by the liberal supplies they have been induced to afford to Indigent Brethren for these three years past'. He also mentions the laying of 'the foundation Stone of the new Jail at Dumfries'. He cites the minutes in support of a demand that Sharpe 'enforce a strict compliance'. The recto of the first sheet carries a list of fifteen numbered lodges headed 'Dumfries Shire Charles Sharpe Esqr P. G. M.' giving the dates of 'last payment.' and 'last Certificate'. At the foot of the page is quotation of a six-line resolution by the Grand Lodge 'of 2d May last' regarding arrears. Edinburgh; 19 August 1802. unknown

12560Scotland and England; 1796 and 1797. The background to the collection is simply stated. On the death of the 15th Earl of Glencairn in 1796 the title became dormant. It was claimed by Fergusson praised by Boswell but dismissed by Johnson as 'a vile Whig' and derided by Burns as 'aith-detesting chaste Kilkerran' as heir of the line of the 10th Earl. Fergusson's claim was opposed by Sir Walter Montgomery Cunningham of Corshill as presumed heir male along with Lady Henriet Don sister of the 15th Earl and wife of Sir Alexander Don of Newton Don Roxburghshire. On 14 July 1797 the House of Lords Committee of Privileges chaired by the Lord Chancellor Lord Rosslyn took a view unfavourable to all the claimants and adjudged that while Sir Adam Fergusson had shown himself to be the heir-general of the 10th Earl he had not made out his right to the title. All six items in manuscript and the collection in fair condition on aged and dusty paper with occasional wear to extremities. ONE. 'The Humble Petition of Sir Adam Fergusson of Kilkerran Baronet.' 2pp. foolscap 8vo. Dated 'Ad: Fergusson. Whitehall 21st. Novr. 1796.' Noting that Fergusson's claim to 'the Title & Dignity of Earl Glencairn of & Ld.

Note: Wikipedia "On the death of the fifteenth earl in 1796 there existing no original Letters Patent of the creation nor a given remainder in the various confirmations in title of previous earls the title became dormantThe earldom was claimed by Sir Adam Fergusson of Kilkerran Bt. as heir of line of Alexander 10th Earl of Glencairn and was opposed by Sir Walter Montgomery Cunningham of Corshill Bt. as presumed heir male along with Lady Henriet Don sister of the last earl and wife of Sir Alexander Don of Newton Don Roxburghshire. The House of Lords Committee of Privileges on 14 July 1797 chaired by the Lord Chancellor Lord Rosslyn in deciding the claim of the first-named took a view unfavourable to all the claimants and adjudged that while Sir Adam Fergusson had shown himself to be the heir-general of Alexander 10th Earl of Glencairn who died in 1670 he had not made out his right to the title.
