National Covenant. Copy signed, once before and once after the addition of the Glasgow Determination, by the provost, bailies, and councillors of the burgh of Peebles, but also by burgesses of Jedburgh., 1638, 1639.
Scope and Contents
Three of the covenants, Adv.MSS.20.6.14, 20.6.15, and 20.6.19, were probably signed in Edinburgh. The remaining four were all subscribed locally; in each case, the local signatures are preceded by the signatures, presumably written in beforehand in Edinburgh, of various noblemen, lairds, burgesses, and ministers of the Tables. Those dated 1638 lack the Glasgow Determination; those dated 1639 include it.
