Description
Excerpt from The Manuscripts of J. J. Hope Johnstone, Esq. Of Annandale, Vol. 9
The first part of the present Report, Nos. 1 to 101, deals with some of the family charters properly so called, but much more with a series of miscellaneous writs in the form of manrents, contracts, assurances of bodily safety, personal obligations, and others. These are selected from a number of similar writs as the best examples of their class, and, though they record no incidents of great moment, they are valuable as exhibiting the inner history of Border life under the Wardens of the Marches.
