Notes

1 JT: Though some letter forms are visible, enough to identify Scribal profile 87, the text is largely too faded to read. It appears to run from lines 8–22. The Andersons (The Chronicle of Melrose, p. liii) note ‘pencil additions to this annal are now illegible’.
2 JT: This reading is taken from the Andersons, The Chronicle of Melrose, p. liii. They note: ‘A line below this is quite illegible. The note appears to refer to the marriage of Alexander in 1282: see the memorandum at the bottom of [f. 11v]’.
was substituted in Ireland Dom John, the cellarer of Glenluce. ¶John de Brienne, the lord king of Jerusalem, came to England, in order to speak at London with the king of England and the magnates over difficult matters. ¶Isabel, daughter of King William (of good memory), and sister of Alexander the king of Scotland, returned from the custody of the king of England, still unmarried.
