OF SCOTLAND was not included, as it had ceased to be in the family. It was not-, strictly speaking, fienditary, excepting from 1625 to 1628 ; but it was virtually so, having been held by the 2nd' down to the 8th Karl inclusive. In 1561, in the confirmation thereof to the 5th Earl, the moving cause is said to be that the office had been held and the duties well discharged by the grantee's father and grandfather ; and iu the charter of 1625 it is stated that the predecessors of the Earl had for ayes past exercised this office.
