dedication text (summary) dedication text (verbatim)A small silver monstrance with relics, gifted by Master Alexander Simpson, once rector of Monymusk, weighing one pound. Two coverings for the gospels . . . from which there is lacking an image. Item two reliquaries of precious metal, once gilded, in which the relics of some saints were conserved but at present due to lack of care they are handed over to oblivion, but believe they were relics of great authority.
