dedication text (summary) dedication text (verbatim)Walter of Strathenry, lord of Strathenry, relates that as controversy has frequently arisen with regard to the obligation to pay yearly to the abbot and convent of Inchcolm a thousand eels, two swine, and a cow, for the land of Strathenry, this payment had been changed to a payment of 38 s, which is now outstanding for seven years. He now grants an additional 2 s annually etc
Universis Sancte matris ecclesie filiis presentes litteras inspecturis Walterus de Strathanry dominus eiusdem eternam in domino Salutem. Noveritis quod cum predecessores mei tenerentur religiosis viris abbati et conventui Insule Sancti Columbe in mille anguillis duobus porcis et una vacca eisdem annuatim solvendis pro terra de Strathenry {. . .} Quos quidem triginta octo solidos per septem annos integros ad summam tresdecim librarum et sex solidorum attingentes Ego Walterus de Strathanry predictus predictis abbati et conventui pro predicta terra mea me fateor non solvisse. Volens igitur Deo et eisdem satisfacere dedi et concessi et hac presenti carta mea pro me et heredibus meis imperpetuum confirmavi duos solidos argenti pro salute anime mee predecessorum et heredum meorum in augmentationem dicte annue pensionis {. . .}
