PREFACE.

THE ancient Muniments of the Abbacy of Melros have been for a long time preserved in the archives of the Earls of Morton. Like the title-deeds of other Church property, they seem to have come into the hands of the Crown at the general annexation of Church lands in 1560 a.

When the Abbacy was granted to James Douglas in 1568, it is probable that the title-deeds were transferred to him; and it would appear, that on his complete resignation of that benefice in 1608, the more ancient investitures were not given up to the Crown. Whether they passed along with the lands, in virtue of the Commendator's first resignation in 1604, (N. 610,) in favour of his father, or, having remained with James Douglas, came ultimately with his other possessions to the noble family of Morton, on the failure of his descendants, cannot now perhaps be ascertained.
