Scope and Contents

From the File:

Of the bulls, numbers 1-2, 4-7, 11-13, 17-23, and 25 concern the Bishopric and/or the Church of St Andrews; numbers 3, 8, 10, and 14 Dunfermline Abbey; number 9 the ransom of David II; number 15 the erection of the Collegiate Church of Seton; and numbers 24 and 26 appointments to the benefices of Cruden and Largo. Number 16 is a petition for indulgences on behalf of Henry Lauder, advocate of Mary Queen of Scots. The majority are of the thirteenth century.

A more detailed description is placed with the documents.

Since so many of the documents relate to Fife, it may have been Sir James Balfour who gathered them together and had them pasted into the volume in which they were originally kept.
