Earls of Mar were to this day entitled to be Earls of Cariooh also ; but I am more inclined to suspect the designation in question to be a loose and careless one, arising from Ciarioch having been an Earldom in the hands of the Earl of Huntingdon. In any case there is a difficulty in accounting for ' Garioch ' as the title of a Lordship of Parliament or understanding when it could have been conferred. The Treasurer Earl and all his successors have been constantly designed Baron (or Lord) Garioch, as well as Erskine in Crown charters as well as writs by them, on the footing that this title was a Lordship of Pari, and they appear as 1 Lord Garioch ' in the Lyon rejristcr of the 17th century. I am inclined to think the title of ' Lord Erskine,' always used by the EarlB of Mar, belongs of right to the heir general, not to Lord M. and K. [i.e., the Earl of Mar and Kellie] the proof one way or another is probably in the Mar charter chest, to which I have no access ; but there is a separate title of 1 Lord Erskine of Dirleton ' (sometimes called Lord Dhieton) conferred on the 1st and belonging now to the present Earl of Kellie." ( a ) The Castle of Glen Garnock ("still stately in ruin") from which the title is taken is described in the Scottish Journal, torn. ii. p. 89. It is on a ridge over hanging the water of Garnock.
