No less careful was he in ornamenting his own church of Ellon to which he brought a screen, paintings, and sculptures equal with that of the Blessed Mother and Virgin at Kinloss, which I spoke of a little earlier. He restored also the great altar there with a wooden frontal where he placed a statue of St Anne . . .

Nec minus accuratus fuit in ornanda ecclesia sua ab Ellone, cui parem tabulam pictoria et statuaria arte deauratum cum illa Beatae Matris et Virginis apud Kynlos, de qua paulo ante sumus locuti, contulit. Restituit quoque illic majus altare tabulato ubi et divae Annae statuam collocavit {. . .}
