Manuscripta juridica

Ius proprium Scotiae - Practicks (general digest of law, alphabetical) 'Abbas' - 'Universities' .

The author ceased working in 1667 at the latest. An act of Parliament of 1663 is mentioned in the entry 'University', and it became obsolete in 1667. I have compared the present MS to text samples gathered from MS Aberdeen, UL, 2367: all samples matched the present MS
