( h ) By his son, Walter Scott, who, in 1 734, became of Harden and Highebester, he was great-grandfather of Hugh Scott, to whom, in 1835, the Barony of Polwarth [S.] Was allowed. ( c ) F. Townsend [Coll. lop.et Gen., vol vii, pp. 142-144] states that the person named by Dug-lale as his wife, was the wife of his son, adding, u I am sorry I cauuot furnish a wife to supply the place of the lady whom I have transferred to his sou." C) " The Barony of Tateshall was a Barony by tenure and ranks among the oldest. The earliest writ of summons is (1295) 23 lid. 1„ but it is not therefore to be concluded that they were not Peers of Pari, before that time ; the notorious defect of Parliamentary records forbids such a conclusion. The Baron, to whom the first writ issued, had been more than 29 years at the head of the family." [Coll. Top et Gen., vol. vii, itt. supra] (°) See vol. i, p. iii, note " b," sub " Ap Adam " as to the invalidity of this summons. ( f ) See " Nicolas," pp. 701-809, for an account of this letter. F. Townsend [Cull. Tap. el Gen., vol. vii, ut supra] considers his description as " Dominus de Bokeliani ' in this letter to be " remarkable," inasmuch as each Baron therein " appears to describe himself by the title of his Barony," and this Robert " held Tateshale and other lands per Baroniam intcjram, holding Bukeuham per servitium Pincerwx," 2 A
