Manuscripta juridica

Formularium - Scottish Styles 'I, A.B., ... grant me to have borrowed and received' (mainly judicial, with explanations of pertinent procedural practice).

Not foliated. Closely related to the work in MS Edinburgh, NR Scotland, GD45/26/66, pag. 1-143, but less anglicised, and with many Latin texts. Again no author, no title, but space was left on the first page, probably for an ornate title to be filled in at a later time. Mainly written by only one scribe, but change of hands on fol. 52. No dates and no parties' names caught my eye. Yet, the fact that the second scrivener (= fol. 52 ss.) took his first style from a document of King William and Queen Mary shows that he must have worked after 1688
