Confirmation of the bishop of the chapel of St James. William, bishop of St Andrews, confirms to God, St Mary, the church of Holy Trinity of Dunfermline, and the abbot and monks, the chapel on the north part of Queensferry, the patronage of which was granted to the monks by the king. The charter is dated at St Andrews on the Wednesday, the feast of that holy apostle, in 1323.
