present and future that the intention of Katerina de Striuelyn, daughter and one
of the heirs of the late John de Striuelyn, knight, of Glenesk, that in my pure
maidenhood with this charter I have given Alexander de Lyndesay, son of lord
David de Lyndesay, knight, Lord of Crawford, all [lit. ‘the whole and each
piece’] of my lands, rents and my possessions with their appurtenances which I

charter’s donation and granting is correct in all its points and in the
agreements with the manners and circumstances of his men, and is (correct in)
its execution in every way. We approve all and we ratify it on behalf of
ourselves and our heirs. With the good of our service, we have anticipated
placing the testimony of our present charter into execution; and we have
anticipated our seal to be placed on it. His witnesses venerable fathers in
