‘Excerpts from an "Inventary of Writs in the Charter house of Hamilton” Vol 2ᵈ. ...` in the hand of James Chalmers.

Fair copy of `Diplomatum veterum collectio`, being Richard Augustine Hay`s transcripts of charters and other formal documents contained in cartularies of mediaeval Scottish religious houses and the archives of the city of Edinburgh.
The copy was probably begun in 1696 (the date quoted on the title page) and not completed until 1701 or later (34.1.10(iii), folio 294 verso), made apparently by a copyist from the transcripts made by Hay when he was in Scotland between 1686 and 1689.
Hutton transcripts. A collection of transcripts of the cartularies of Aberdeen Cathedral (Adv.MS.20.3.1) and Newbattle Abbey (Adv.MS.20.3.3) and of charters and other formal documents, many of which are extracts from other cartularies, of and concerning several of the medieval dioceses and religious houses of Scotland.
Most of these transcripts and extracts, which were made between circa 1794 and circa 1824, are in the hand of Lieutenant-General G H Hutton: most of the rest are in the same hand as Adv.MS.9A.1.4. Many of the transcripts were made from originals and copies in possession of William Maule of Panmure, who was created Baron Panmure in 1831: many of the rest were copied from documents in possession of Thomas Thomson and at the Scottish Record Office, General Register House.
