Digitized by Microsoft® Digitized by Microsoft® THE PREFACE. For illustrating the early trade of Scotland, there are brought together in this volume our oldest extant Ledger or merchant's account-book, and the earliest complete Tariff of Customs. The book of accounts of Andrew Halyburton has Haiyburton's been in the General Eegister House at Edinburgh for a long time. It is found in the Inventories of the House made up in 1701, where it is placed under the head of ' Promiscuous Account Books,' and described as 'a large and very old book, of what nature unknown.' But on the copy of that inventory made in 1727, a modern hand has added the dates— '3 Aug. 1493 to 1503,' which sufficiently identify our Ledger. It is a thick folio of 16 by 11^ inches, in its The took original dark leather binding, the back strengthened with bands and parchment thongs, very much in the style of modern account-books. The boards are covered with stamps and tooling of the binder's art ; but I cannot say whether usual or appro- priate to the mercantile account-book of Flanders of that age. Dragons and wyverns may be local I Digitized by Microsoft® xviii THE PEEFACE. heraldic badges, or merely the readiest tools at the workman's hand, while the two-headed eagle, crowned, marked everywhere the dignity of Imperial Germany. Eound the edges of the binding runs a pretty scroll of foliage, not unworthy of imitation, and which is represented at the top of this Preface. The Ledger contains about 300 leaves — of which only 261 written upon — of a stout cotton paper, 15 by 11 inches, with the J- I water-mark so frequent in the ^ ***J Netherlands; but the common ^ Sr : account of which — that it is the r^ ^^ initial, and put for the name, of I PhUip the Good, Duke of Bur- ^AV gundy — is not very satisfactory. \t \j When I first examined the book, V in investigating the history of our early trade, some twenty-five years ago, I found in it two or three scraps of written paper, some of Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. xix them attached to the leaves of the ledger by coarse and much verdigrised pins. One piece of thick brown paper seems to have Fragments IP 1 1 • 1 f f 1 • IT T contained in stood lor a blottmg-leaf, for the writer had not used the ledger. the French fashion of drjring his writing with sand or dust. This blotting-leaf also has a water-mark, which may give some light to students of that manufacture. The other scraps of writing, now all unattached, consist of such memorandums and ephemeral docu- ments as are to be looked for. We find, for instance, a letter addressed to the owner of the book, by a correspondent, Philip Gualterotti, of Bruges. It is in French, and with the license of spelling in which French writers then indulged, while there is a quaint turn of expression which may, perhaps, be thought to mark the Italian original of the writer, no doubt one of those merchants and bankers of Venice or of Lombardy, drawn by the growing trade to settle in the great emporium of the Netherlands.

He is a careless scribe, satisfied if his letters accounting. indicate what he means. In spelling, he mixes a little Flemish and Dutch with his native Scotch. The numeration both of goods and of money is for the most part in the modern or Arabic numerals. But these were only a late acquisition of the writer, who uses them very rudely, and often reverts to the Koman i., v., x. Each account is solemnly pre- ceded by the name of ' Jhesus,' a practice not un- common amongst writers of lay as weU as church books.

It is here that we usually close the long interval between the Eoman world, and this our modem Europe, denominated the Middle Ages. The con- quest of Granada, which rendered Spain a Christian kingdom ; the annexation of the last great fief of the French crown, Brittany, which made France an entire and absolute monarchy ; the pubhc peace of Germany ; the invasion of Naples by Charles viil., which revealed the weakness of Italy, while it com- municated her arts and manners to the Cisalpine nations ; the discovery of two worlds by Columbus and Vasco de Gama, all belong to this decade.'^ In the decade so full of European interest, Flanders was the very centre of it.

Setting the burghers against the nobles, and the nobles against the cities, de- basing the coin, insulting customary and chartered privileges, he had almost stamped out the freedom of the freest people in Europe, and much injured their trade, when, in 1493, he succeeded to the Imperial throne, and handed over the Netherlands to his son PhUip the Fair, who at seventeen years of age received the homage of these Provinces. It was a gloomy prospect for the free provinces, when, in 1496, Philip married Joanna, daughter of Frederick and Isabella ; from which marriage, in 1501, was born Charles v., inheriting the double power of his parents, with greater abilities, and aU Freedom and ■^ _ ^ ° _ trade in danger, their hatred of freedom, whether in politics or reli- M ""' ^^*™" guished. gious opinions.

Our own Scotland in that time enjoyed one of Scotland under 1 . /. . T ™ . T /> James iv. its brief periods of quiet and of national prosperity. Notwithstanding the little episode of Perkin War- beck, James iv. kept on good terms with England, and at length seemed to ' take a bond of Fate,' by his marriage with Margaret Tudor. Under the most accomplished of the Stuart princes, the coun- try made progress which showed itself in enlightened legislation, in learning and literature, as well as in commercial activity. It was in the beginning of Digitized by Microsoft® xxvi THE PEEFACE. this period that Bishop Elphinstone founded the University beside his flourishing commercial burgh of Aberdeen. It was scarcely past the end of it, that our first printing-press was set up, and the wonderful efi'orts were made in printing, which, like those of Aldus and the Italian masters, throw later work into the shade.

It is a good old Scotch name,^ and many of that surname bore the Christian name of Andrew ; but whether our Flanders merchant was of the Halyburtons of that ilk, of Dirleton in Lothian, or of the family of Pitcur in Angus, I cannot deter- mine. I can teU nothing of him and his life and actions, except what is told in the leaves now printed; and the personal acquaintance derived from that source is wonderfully scanty. Whether of gentle birth or no, his relatives and connexions seem to have been of his own rank in life, merchant-burgesses of Scotch towns.^ 1 The name of Halyburton gave (25-6) ; but her son was Sandy — Or, on a bend Azure, three Mosman (27).

From the earliest times, to follow trade was no degradation of the Scotch gentleman. The noble with us, when he sought to better his .fortunes by commerce, was not required to give up his sword in the face of his brother nobles — ^to be reclaimed when he had renounced the gainful call- ing. I suppose we inherited from our Teutonic fathers some of the feeling which made' so curious a mixture of soldier and trader, merchant-seaman and pirate, in the old rovers of the North — the same spirit that survived in ' Cnut the opulent ' of Ber- wick, of the thirteenth century, and among the munificent citizens of Roxburghe, while it was still a city. From our earliest records, burghs and bur- gesses were held in respect and honour, and their trade encouraged and protected. They throve under such institutions, and in a country so poor as Scot- land the trading element was soon powerful and influential. Here, however, and I believe in England also, the in Scotland union of trade was only an accident of nobility, entered the 1A1 1 Ti landed class. Our rich burgesses of Edinburgh and Aberdeen did not found houses taking pride in their trading origin, and continuing their ancestral trade and their coimexion with their parent city. That which took place in Venice and Genoa — perhaps on account of the narrow territory at the disposal of the mer- chant princes — and in the cities of the Netherlands, Digitized by Microsoft® xxviii THE PEEPACE. from the early predominance of an outside aris- tocracy who held the land — was not rendered neces- sary in Britain, The younger son of a landed man with us found occupation in trade, without severing his ties of birth and family ; and he was prepared to revert readily to rural life, whether a succession opened to him, or prosperous trade enabled him to 'conquer' some wild territory, to be cultivated by money and taste acquired in his commerce with more favoured countries. The names of our early bur- gesses, and such memorials as remain of their history, prove many to have been of good families, often noble. Foreigners from the Netherlands are found in high honour in Aberdeen in the fourteenth century, and many charter-chests of our own landed families show accessions of wealth and treasures of foreign art and luxury that must have come from the young merchant adventurers of the house. But when these Scotch gentlemen had realized the mode- rate fortune which in those days enabled them to become ' landed men,' they found no impediment to their reception among their brother lairds, and left the burgh behind them, only perhaps keeping up a neighbourly friendship, which made the Bannermans and Menzieses so often Provosts of Aberdeen, the Charters's of Perth, and the Prestons of Edinburgk Many landed In Commercial communities so connected with Sorigi^ to the landed gentry, it was an easy thing for any trade. burgcss, cven of pure burgess blood and rearing, to pass, when fortune smiled on his merchandise, into Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. xxix the landed class, to become laird and 'baron;' and many Scotch landed families of high standing, and now quite unaware of it, owe their origin to suc- cessful trade.

They were often equal in education. They had the same freedom, — for nobility never in Britain conferred the odious privilege of exemption from public taxes. They intermarried without dis- paragement.^ We had the old Teutonic traditions of birth and gentry, but the * sullen line of demar- cation,'^ which in other countries of Europe sepa- rated the two orders as effectually as the caste of Bengal, was unknown here ; and so it has come to pass that, in all the convulsions of a much disturbed society, in the constant strife of opinions, in the civil wars of religion and political faction, we have escaped the greatest of national evils — the separa- tion and opposition of orders, the deadly war of the rich against the poor, the educated against the ignorant.

To us, it has been known in modern times chiefly in connexion with the miserable expedition to Walcheren in 1809. But in the time of our account-book, it was a place bf great trade ; and for a century after, was one of the chief trading ports of the Nether- lands. Lodovico Gruicciardini,^ writing in the middle of the sixteenth century, praises its admirable situa- tion, its two ports, Ramua and Sclusa ; its two canals, one lately made, broad and deep and straight, by which great ships of more than 200 tons can pass and repass from Eamua to Middle- burgh to the great profit and pleasure of the inhabi- tants.

Thus, for the decade of our book, and for the half century following, the trade and manufacture of the world, circled round and centred in the busy hive of Antwerp and the Low Countries. I have thought that the enumeration of commo- dities, tedious and oft-repeated as they are, helped to show this. If I could give even an approxi- mate statement of the quantity and v^lue of these commodities, my purpose would be served. But this, which must have been difficult at first, is impossible after the lapse of time and the change in the value of money. The author, whom I have been following, estimates the value of the imports Vake of im- from Italy into Antwerp alone, at the average of^""^^' three millions of crowns {scudi) yearly. The Ehine wine alone from Germany, estimated EWne wine, at forty thousand casks, at thirty-six crowns the cask, comes to a million and a half of crowns. More than a million and a half crowns are esti- mated as the value of the annual importation from the North. Digitized by Microsoft® xlii THE PEEFACE.

Spain, hc says, used to send to Bruges more than forty thousand sacks of wool, but having, of laite years, begun to make much more cloth at home, she does not send at this present time (1560) more than twenty-five thousand, which, estimated at twenty-five crowns the sack, amount to six hun- dred and twenty thousand crowns.

Its two great fairs; that of Whitsuntide, and the other of St. Eemigius, called also the Fair of St. Balbo, each of which fairs lasts for six weeks, and which were no doubt, in his day, the greatest mercantile assemblages in Europe. (2.) The second cause I wUl give in his own words. The movement which has made this city so great, rich, and famous, _ began about the year 1503-4, when the Portuguese having, a little before, with marvellous and stupen- dous navigation and appliances, taken possession of Calicut, and made an agreement with its king, began to bring the spices and the drugs of India into Portugal (a voyage of sixteen thousand miles, ^ This ■writer, without the saga- chants.

It was in 1556 that trade.

Now, these spices and drugs used before to go by way of the Ked Sea to Beyrout and Alexandria, and thence were carried by the Venetians to Venice, and through all Italy, through France, through G-ermany, and aU the proviaces of Christendom. Our author teUs us that the Fuggers and Welzers, and other German merchants, soon took up the trade brought by the Portuguese to Antwerp, but the people of Germany, ignorant of this new voyage of the Portuguese, were much astonished at first, and doubted the genuine- ness of the' commodities. This change brought much of the trade that had formerly centred ia Bruges to Antwerp, and with it came many of the honoured trading houses of Spain, and first the Gualterotti, the Buonvisi, and the SpiaoU, all houses of great following and very large trade. Scotch trade. I cannot bring facts to contradict the rather con- temptuous account of Scotch trade given by the Florentine. Our country was poor in soU and cli- mate ; and internal dissension and continual jealousy or strife with England withdrew the care, industry, and capital that should have developed her products as well as her trade. Of such trade as there was, Halyburton seems to have had his share, and the position which he occupied as Conservator of the privileges of his nation, marks him as a leading Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. xlv" mercliant, and probably the ckief of the Factors of the Scotch Staple. In a collection like the present, intended chiefly for illustrating the early trade of Scotland, I may be permitted to look back to the commencement of it, without pretending to give more than an outline of what our records afford. Almost as early as we can trace any settled government or ci\dlisation in Scotland, we have proofs of the esteem in which commercial industry and enterprise were held among us. We may think Ailred's praise of the saintly King in the time of David exaggerated, as well as his picture of Scot- land under his dominion — ' no longer the beggar from other countries, but of her abundance relieving the wants^of neighbours — adorned with castles and cities, her ports filled with foreign merchandise and the riches of distant nations.' Yet the historian was a contemporary and eye-witness, and some traits of the King's manner of life which drop from his pen accidentally, serve to prove, more than his poetical description, the prosperity of trade and David's consideration for merchants.-' ^ Eulogium Davidis, by Ailred, seed-time and harvest, at other Abbot of Rievaux.

I must not be held to limit the commencement of EUe of the burghs. trade to the foundation of burghs; but commerce and all moveiable property were very precarious ia Scot- land till David gave them security, by encouraging and directing the spirit of combination that distin- guishes our race, and furnishing the material safe- guard of the King's castle and its garrison, as well as the moral, support of the law for trade and traders. He protected his burghers— and encouraged them to protect themselves — not only against robbers and pirates from without, but against the upland man, the marauding baron, or the lawless leader of catherans, who was but too ready to turn from his everlasting war with his fierce neighbours of the glen to pillage or ' som ' upon the peaceful men of trade, whom fortune seemed to have put in his hands as sheep to be shorn, till the great legislator came to their aid.

We had. our. little ' Hanse' of Scotch traders long before the same phrase was adopted for the great European union of the Hanse Towns ;^ but the burghal spirit was awake over all Europe in those centuries, and it produced a freemasonry in feeling, and a uni- formity even in forms of self-government, from Barcelona and Leon to Inverness and Novgorod. The spirit was most active perhaps in Italy and Spain, but the consuls and prudhommes in Southern France, the maires and Schevins in the Langue d'oil, the schout and schepens of the Low Country cities, and many another name of magistrature, hardly differ in essentials from our own alderman, provost, bailies, and councillors. Unfortunately, the form and show of burghal usages, in most countries, sur- vived the free institutions, which made them re- spectable.^ Our country has been more fortunate. ^ King William the Lion (who reigned 1165-1214) granted to the northern burghs of Scotland ' ut habeant Uberum ansum suum.' The same King grants privileges to burghs, ' Siout consuetudo et assisa fuit tempore Regis David avi mei,' — not as David made the law, but as he found it. 2 Augustin Thierry, the most zealous lover of the Tiers Etat, tells us how, after all their great power and independence were gone, the French towns still clung to the shadow of burghal government. A letter of Racine I cannot resist quoting after him. It is written from Uzfes, in Provence, in 1664, when the system of Richelieu, followed out by Louis xiv., had extinguish- ed burghal independence : — ' De quoi voulez vous que je vous en- tretienne ?

I think the Mne of demarcation between the mer- chant burgess and the craftsman or mechanic, though not impassable, was broader than that which sepa- rated the merchant from the landed man. The burghal institutions, however, were suited to their time. It was much to have a steady centre for security of life, property, trade, manufacture, against a turbulent, lawless population without, and with that protection, vigorous and still gaining strength, trade continued to thrive. Fordun's continuator, the Abbot of Inchcolme — Trade under the dweUing on the fatal event, the death of Alexander Alexanders. III., which had befallen just a century before his own birth,^ relates the good King's care in adminis- tering justice through his dominions ; his war against idle beggars and the extravagant retinues of nobles, and finally his protection of merchants and merchandise. Trade had been impeded and the kingdom impoverished, he says, by the depreda-^ tions of pirates, the losses by shipwreck and arrest- ments used on slight ground. Unluckily the historian, never very logical or consecutive, does not describe the remedial measures adopted. But he assures us that, within a year after they were used, ships of diverse regions came to this country laden with various merchandise, to be exchanged for our own produce. And so it was provided, ' Bower relates the date of The good King fell from his horse his birth at Haddington, 1385. 19th March 1285.

By which means within few years the kingdom abounded in all goods as weU in victuals as money, cattle and sheep, merchandises and trades, so that many from the east, and from the west, and from the ends of the earth, came to witness the justice, the policy, the power and wisdom of the King. This praise, borrowed from Solomon, is supported by one statement which may have been true. Jus- tice, says Bower, was so weU administered through the land, that Lombards of great wealth {et ditis- simi Lumbardi) came in numbers and offered to the King to build for themselves royal cities {regales civitates) at such places as the fine road- stead of St. Margaret's Hope, or the Isle of Cramond, provided they had certain privileges granted them — ^for they too relied on the protection of exclusive privileges.^ Their petition did not please some of the estates, but Bower intimates that it would have been successful, if the wise and good King had not died so suddenly.

Foreign trade and traders were encouraged, and Scotch merchants began to trust to their own ships. The King was a sador in a small way himself, and spent his short leisure of latter life in cruising with a mimic fleet on the firths and inland seas of the west coast. Under David ii. and the early Stewarts, Scotland relapsed into anarchy, and trade almost expired.

The trade between Flanders and Scotland, of im- memorial antiquity/ was not of old restricted to any one port or staple. In the beginning of the fifteenth century, Bruges was the recognised Staple of the Scotch tirade in the Netherlands, as it still was the grand emporium where many currents of commerce intersected and centred. In 1444, in consequence of the marriage of Mary of Scotland to Wolfred, Lord of Camp Vere (to whom she brought the Earldom of Buchan), the Staple was changed to his State ; and although the Lords of Camp Vere did not descend from that 1 All circumstances lead us to believe that Flanders was the first nation of the continent to carry on a trade with Scotland. The shortness of the voyage, the activity and enterprise of the Netherland merchant, the con- venience, almost necessity, for the weavers of Flanders to draw their raw material from its nearest place of growth, would leave no doubt on the subject, were it not for a curious statement, occurring in an unsuspected quarter. It ap- pears that the city of Limoges, so well known for its beautiful manu- facture of enamel, possesses a manuscript concerning its anti- quities, which contains the follow- ing statement : — The old records of the country tell us that, at the end of the tenth century, Vene- tians trading with merchandise from the East, and shunning the passage of Gibraltar, came to settle at Limoges, established a Vene- tian bourse there, and brought thither on mules and waggons their spices and other goods, which they had landed at the mouths of the Rhone. These Venetians dwelt long at Limoges, and from thence, as from a centre, sent their merchandise ' to Bochelle, Brittany, England, Scotland, and Ireland.' I quote from M. VioUet- le-Duc {Architecture, voL i. p. 137), whose statement of facts is not to be questioned, and here he quotes his authority carefully, which, however, I have not thought it necessary to refer to. If the ' old records' quoted do mention the settlement of the Venetian colony at Lunoges, which I have no in- terest to question, I am satisfied that, in enumerating our islands amongst the countries to which they pushed their trading adven- tures, they wanted merely to ex- press places incredibly distant, and known only through the mist of fable.

Iv marriage, the Staple continued there until 1539, when it was removed to Antwerp, and two years later to Middleburgh ; but it soon returned to Camp Vere, and it remained, with short interruptions, at that port down to the French Eevolution ; so that the Conservator of Scotch privileges, who was a con- Conservator of sul, only with more defined powers, and with an ex- leges. tensive jurisdiction over Scotch subjects and in aU disputes between Scotsmen, was commonly called the Conservator of Camp Vere.^ We must not expect to know much of the trading Haiyburton's 1,/. ij_j_i 111 1 correspondentB. correspondents oi a merchant three hundred and fifty years ago, yet some of Haiyburton's correspon- dents are known to us.

Ivii We probably owe to his care one of the best copies of tbe Scotichronicon of Fordun and Bower, that in the Edinburgh University Library, which bears to be written by Magnus Macculloch, the Archbishop's amanuensis.^ To say that he was an irregular liver, a churchman regardless of his vows, is but what can be said of aU the great beneficed churchmen of that time (except Elphinstone). The two young men committed to Halyburton's charge in 1493, for whose clothes and personal expenses he charges his right reverend correspondent, were, without much doubt, sons of the Archbishop, though only one bears his name. I believe nothing is known of their after life. The bishop's name was of good account in the north. In 1495, he is thinking of death (not too soon, for he had worn the mitre seventeen years, and he died next year) , and he gives a commission to his old friend for a tomb or monument,^ which, after the most approved fashion of the time, was to be made and ornamented at Bruges. The next Archbishop of St. Andrews was also a Archbishop correspondent of Halyburton. This was James, the King's brother, and who appears in our book only as Duke of Eoss, — the young prince immortalized by The Archbishop was owner in Scotland.

Buggiero finds the Scotch thirty thousand conducted by their King's son. There he saw the banner of Scotland, the mighty Kou with two unicorns for its supporters. The prince was there encamped, the most beauti- ful, the most graceful, the most virtuous and powerful; his title was the Duke of Ross, — ' Non 6 un si bello in tante altre persone ; Natnra il fece, e poi ruppe la stampa ; Non e in cui tal virtii, tal grazia luca, tal possanza ; ed 6 di Eoscia duca.'— (Stanza 84.)

We have no information of objects of art or luxury which the Prince Bishop brought from Italy. From Flanders he was supplied with signets of gold and sUver, as well as the long oval seal of his bishopric. One charge, that for a messenger bearing ' white rose letters to my Lady,' points to his connexion with the widowed Duchess of Burgundy and her faction, the supporters of Per- kin Warbeck, claiming to represent the white rose of York.^ The Duke, like his predecessor in the archbishopric, chose to have his monument made in Bruges, and he showed some care for its appearance, since he allowed a charge of seven crowns for its design. The whole monument was costly, and, in- deed, all the Duke's expenses were on a princely scale. He was pleased with his bankers, and made a present to one of them, Cornelius Altonitz, of six silver goblets, weighing forty-eight, ounces, for the ' gentrys he did to my Lord in the laying out of his money.'

The bishop's remittances are made in wool, perhaps from his estate of Birss (but it is in no great quantity, for the Episcopal property was evil neigh- bour'd), lasts of salmon and barrels of trout from the Dee and Don, with some little money. These funds are employed first in large remit- tances of ducats to Eome — that drain of church- men — through the bank of De Altonitz. But the bishop was then engaged in his great undertak- ing, his University buildings, and I suppose it is for that he required a supply of carts and wheel- barrows (for which an Aberdonian would not now think of sending to Flanders), and a quantity of gunpowder, which he might find necessary iu quarry- ing the granite for his college. There is the cus- tomary supply of clothes, and although there is no wine this year, there are spices and comfits for the bishop's table; for Elphiastone was no ascetic; There are church vessels, a ' counterfeit chalice,' and two chalices (of silver) double over-gilt, each in its case. Lastly, there is a payment for repairs and a new case to the bishop's horloge. There was then no watchmaker in Aberdeen, but we are not told which of the towns of the Low Countries pro- duced the clever .artist, if, indeed, Halyburton did not send the watch to Paris to be mended. The Arch* I mention the account of the Archdeacon of St. Andrews. ' Andrews, partly because it gives some information of our iatercourse with the Continent. It appears that the great churchman and his neighbour, the Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. Lei Abbot of St. Cobne's Inch, took their horses when they sailed for Flanders, which implies more stowage than we are prepared to expect in the trading craft of those days. The Archdeacon paid for his horses' freight three pounds. But the churchman did not go to the inn at Bruges ; he and his servants found accommodation in Halyburton's house, and the Conservator scruples not to send in his biU for the expense. Perhaps Halyburton had no house of his own at Bruges, and having hired a house for their joint accommodation, allowed the Archdeacon to pay his share of the rent. The Archdeacon, like other churchmen, had to send ducats to Eome. For his own purse he preferred Utrecht guldens. Like aU Scotchmen, he made his remittances in wool, hides, salmon, trouts. He took the value back in claret wine, embroidering sUk, gold thread, perhaps for church ornaments, clothes and black hats for himself, pieces of fustian, a frontal to an altar, of red say embroidered, table-cloths, towelling, ser- viettes. Dunfermline had not yet learnt to manu- facture her beautiful napery. For his church he took a chalice ; but the Arch- deacon was economical, and only the cup was of sUver double over-gilt, the stand was copper. An- other chalice was aU of silver double over-gilt, and weighed seventeen ounces. The Archdeacon required ten dozen of 'rasit wark,' which I take to be a dinner-service of pewter. The plate he bought was only three pieces, weighing Digitized by Microsoft® Ixii THE PEEFACE. seven marks, and costing fifteen pounds. The Con- servator made him a present of a great pot for festival hospitahty, but his correspondent required other pots and pans of the good Yetlin manufacture, still so well known. He had seen the neatness of Belgian housekeeping, and he took over a thousand tiles for his chamber floor at St. Andrews, which required a mat twenty feet long and as broad. It seems as if all the Scotch world must procure their monuments in Bruges. The Archdeacon was not provident enough to bespeak his own tomb, but he commissioned two monuments, ' throwis,' which were sent to Scotland, one for my Lady Eoss, the other for Sir A. Scott. I believe that the twenty-four pillars of brass, which appear in his account, weigh- ing five hundred and ninety-two pounds, were con- nected with these monuments, perhaps part and parcel of them. Finally, the Archdeacon having a kindness for John of WeUs, instructed his friend Halyburton to give him, at the next Yule after his departure, a gown of Ypres black, lined with say, a doublet of black camlet, a hat, a bonnet, a pair of hose; in short, a handsome suit for Christmas, at the respectable cost of £3, 14s.

Among the Edinburgh burghers, one stands out prominently, Walter Chepman. The very etymology Walter Chep- of his name shows him to be of a merchant famdy, and he wrote himself merchant burgess of Edin- burgh. He sent a few sacks of wool and skins (some of them rotten !) and got back a piece of velvet with a little kist to pack it in, and that is aU the commodity that we trace in 1496 to the hands of Walter Chepman, to be exposed for sale in the little shop with its fore-stair opening on the Southgate of Edinburgh. But there was room there and spirit in the owner First Scotch for a mighty undertaking. A little while after his ^ dealing with Halyburton for such small wares, Chepman and his partner Myllar set up their print- ing press in that little shop ; and the works of that press are still the admiration and envy of printers.

There are in that volume works of Dunbar and of Chaucer, tales of chivalry and romance, poems of the broad- est and most homely humour, joined to excellent moral poems, old ballads, and among them an antique version of Eobin Hood. It is worth stopping to remark what channels of thought and fields of literature are opened up by these productions of one press, almost in one year, to a people hitherto ignorant of printing. The reader is introduced to the great romance of Western Chris- tendom, the epic of King Arthiir and the Knights of his Eound Table ; to poems serious or sati- rical, the foundations of a fine part of our National Hterature. It was a great boon to make the Scotch student acquainted with the genius of Chaucer ; but per- haps even greater, to scatter over Scotland the charming mythology of Robin Hood. The Advocate's Library volume is unique, and of the reprint, done under the care of Mr. D. Laing, only a few copies escaped from a fire at the bookbinder's. Mr. Laing has collected, with re- verent care, all that is known of Walter Chepman, but I think has hardly done justice to the beauty of his typography. It is perhaps more conspicuous in the Breviary of Aberdeen, which issued from the same press a few years later, and which has saved from obli- vion a rich treasure of the legends of our early Church. The re- print of the Breviary for the Bannatyne Club, is a master- piece of the printer's art. Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. Ixv the unmanufactured produce of the country. The Highlands and Borders still produced their staple of "wool, hides, and skins, in small quantities, notwith- standing the unsettled state of Scotland, inse- curity of property from other causes, and especially the inveterate plundering propensities of a large part of their population. The flocks and herds suf- fered more by the insecure state of the country than the wUd animals, and the furs of marten and weasel continued plentiful in Guicciardini's time. Of wool we find varieties named, some by the Wool, ii3 market title, as ' bona lana,' white, brown, midd- ling wool, Closter ; and others from their place of growth or sale, as Galloway, Aberdeen's wool, New- castle wool. Newbottle wool must mean the clip of the Lanarkshire moors, where the Abbey had its great pastures. 'Forest wool' was from Ettrick, Yarrow and Tweed, and the other glens included in the district so commonly called ' the Forest,' that the name became synonymous with the sheriflfdom of Selkirk. Lambs' wool and Tyd wool were sold separately, but all in small quantities.'^ And this leads me to inquire why the exports should Cause of so have been on so small a scale ? Why considerable signments. merchants should have made consignments so trifling -in value, and never great ones ? I believe the true answer to be, that the proper produce of a pastoral country, its flocks and its herds, had been destroyed or reduced to the smallest amount by the chronic ' In the Index, under the word Wool, the varieties are enumerated.

At an earher period, before the fatal feud that separated England from Scotland, the southern Highlands and Border hUls, chiefly in the hands of monastic landlords, were known for large quantities of fine wool, which had an esta- blished character in the foreign market, and its name at least was known to Halyburton and his correspondents. Whether at that time — in the time of peace and good role that extended from David to the War of the Succession — the great central and northern Highlands were equally pro- ductive, I cannot pretend to say.^ The produce of that extensive Highland district was evidently very small in the time of Bishop Elphinstone and Haly- burton, and it cannot have increased much during the following century, perhaps it might be safe to say for two centuries. In records and private charter-chests, we can trace pretty clearly the manner of rural occupation which produced such results ; but we have perhaps the fullest and best evidence concerning the whole The rental of matter in a rental of the great lordship of Huntly, or rather of the whole possessions of the noble family of Gordon, in the year 1600.

Ixvii The possessions — farms, we should call them now, are generally let to several tenants in joint occu- pancy, each contributing his share to the labour, and his proportion of the rent. A very common size of farm is two ploughgates let to eight joint tenants, each holding two oxgangs, and contributing two oxen and labour to the common ploughs (of eight oxen each). The payments, like the labour, were in common, Kent, mail, and consisted of, first, a very small sum of money- rent called 'mail,' or ' sUver-maU;' and, secondly, of certain bolls of oatmeal and here, universally known as 'ferme.' The money is of course Scots money, then reduced almost to its lowest degrada- tion, and the solid part of the rent is ' ferme,' producing, on a barony of moderate extent, such a quantity of oatmeal and here fit for malting, as to require distinct barns for holding the lord's share. Besides the mail and the ferme there was a pay- Customs. ment of ' customs,' including a considerable variety of commodities in small quantities, such commo- dities as were devoted to the present use of the lord's kitchen, or his house. These are often a mart or beast to be killed at Martiimaas, two or three wedders or muttons, as many lambs, grice or young pigs, geese, capons, poultry, chickens, eggs, and almost universally the ancient tax of a ' reek hen,' or a hen for every fire house. There was a very little tallow, sometimes distinguished as ' brew tal- low,' paid from the parish ale-house, a little butter. Digitized by Microsoft® Ixviii THE PEEFACE. and rarely cheese. Besides these commodities for the kitchen, in the ' customs' of the low-country farms is often included a few ells of ' cloth/ not made of the native wool, but linen cloth of three-quarters broad for my lady's napery-chest, made of home- grown lint, or, failing the linen, a commutation of ten shiQings an ell. It is observable that in this Rental there is no difierence in the measure of extent nor in the kind of rent between the Highland and the low-country farm. In the wilds of Badenoch and Lochaber, the measure of the possession is in ploughgates, and the payment of rent uniformly in ferme meal and bere, just as in the low country of Enzie and Strathbogie.'' While the rents are paid ' in kind,' and represent the produce of the land, in all that vast estate, reaching from sea to sea, across a country now closely pas- tured by sheep or cattle, there is no payment of wool or woollen cloth, nor of hides or skins, nor any of sheep or cattle, beyond the occasional mart or wedder for the lord's own table. At that period, it is evident that there were no cattle or sheep reared in large herds and droves to seek their food on the hills ; nothing but the petty flock of sheep or herd of a few cows, stiU found in 1 The Cabrach, a lofty moor- sively.

It continued to be produced only in such quantities as we see it in Halyburton's con- signments; and Money was a name, and no reality in trade. In neither of these can there have been much revival when James vi., only five years before his accession to the English throne, thought to enrich the country by acts for compelling merchants to import bullion ; and tried to foster a sickly infancy of home manufacture by ordinances for ' restraining and retaining within this realme of aU the woU which grows within the same, and that craftismen stran- gearis be brocht hame within this countrey for worke- ing of the said woU within the same, for the commoun wele andprofi'eit thairof in tyme cumming.'^ In Halyburton's time, and, I may say, for two no actual centuries afterwards, the Scotch laird estimated his ™™^y' income in bolls of meal and malt ; and the surplus, after maintaining his family and a large following of dependants, was turned to account in Leith and Aberdeen, sometimes even in Newcastle (speaking of the east coast), and returned in the comforts and luxuries that come next in importance to food. 1 Rental of the Lordship of jeot.

Alexander Eeid, Alderman and Alexander Chalmer each gave a barrel of salmon ; Alexander Menzies a barrel of salmon and a hundred of lentrinware ; Eobert Blindsele gave a barrel of salmon and eighteen shillings of money ; others gave barrels of grilse, a quarter of a hundred lambskins, a dozen futfeU. Many bestowed lentrin- ware, but a still larger number subscribed salmon and grilse. Richard Wricht, not being rich in world's goods, subscribed labores pro octo diebus, and William Wricht the same. Those who gave money did not for the most part go beyond five shillings. Andrew Litster gave 'ane cow.' Another burgess subscribed a piece of lead ; but small quan- tities of sheepskins and lambsldns were the most usual contributions after the fish of the river.^ Fish forexpoit. The Only fish exported in Halyburton's time were salmon, with the varieties of grilse and trout, the 1 Aberdeen Burgh Records, p. 48. — Spalding Club. Digitized by Microsoft® THE TEEFACE. Ixxi produce of the rivers. No sea fish was yet taken and cured in sufficient quantity for export, not even herring, or rather the produce of our seas still went to reward the enterprise and skill of the Dutch fishers. Another commodity, the prodvice of our rivers, was of old in great esteem. As early as the twelfth century Scotch pearls were coveted by Pearls. princes and great churchmen,^ and they were still in demand in Halyburton's time, who gave a corre- spondent two pounds in English groats to buy pearls in Scotland.^ Later I have not met with them as objects of trade, untU almost our own time, when the taste seems to have revived. I suppose the de- mand becoming great at any time produces such a slaughter of the pearl-bearing mussel, mature or not, that it takes a considerable time to repair the damage, and during that interval the Scotch pearl is not brought to market and is forgotten.^ A little cloth of a cheap quality sent to Haly- Cioth mami- burton and sold in Antwerp ;* a pack of cloth sold Scotland. 1 Nicholas, evidently a great churclimaD, ■writing to Eadmer, a monk of Canterbury elected to the see of St. Andrews, a letter full of wise counsel, concludes with a request to procure for him some pearls of good water, and a few 'Unions' (great pearls like onions), the largest to be had, of such at least four. If, writes Nicholas, you cannot get them otherwise, ask them as a gift from the King [of Soots, Alexander i.], who in this commodity is richer than any man, — in hoc re omnium hominum ditissimus est. The elec- tion of Eadmer, who was never confirmed (owing to a zeal for the superiority of Canterbury which King Alexander i. would not give into), fixes the time of this letter to A.D. 1120. — Wharton, Anglia Sacra, ii. p. 236. 2 P. 189. ^ I remember a man tried for some offence at the Circuit Court at Inverness, who had described himself in his ' declaration ' as pearl-fisher in Spey. ^ P. 89.

Alum, and a few other materials for the dyer, may have been used in connexion with no higher manufacture. Imports into In retum for these raw commodities or simple manufactures, Scotland imported in those days nearly everything of consumption beyond the bare necessaries of existence. But means were small, and the traders were mere retail dealers. Every package put up by Halyburton for his trading correspondents, shows their commerce to have been something hke that of a ' merchant,' as the little dealer is still called in a Scotch country town. He packed in the same bale a piece of canvas, of fustian, or buckram, a small quantity of fine cloth, 'Eyssells' or 'Ypres,' some linens for the table, and lawn, hoUand, cambrics, for dress, pieces of silk, velvet, satin, damask, taffety, ribbons, sewing silk, and silk for embroidery, gold and silver leaf, gold and silver thread, a small packet of pins, not stuck in a paper as now but in a cloth, and a belt to the ' prins,' which I venture to read a ' sheath' for knitting needles.

In the satins and cramoisies and vel- vets, damasks and taffeties, even in the Ryssells and Ypres cloth,^ we probably have only the state dress of our great-grandfathers and grandmothers, at a time when dress was a more important concern than it is at present, when the apparel of both sexes was not only held to indicate the position of the wearer, but was a family treasure handed down for genera- tions.

Ladies' oocupa- The Considerable proportion of work materials, canvas, silks, gold and silver thread, point to the occupation of ladies at a time when the tailor was still the only dressmaker, for women as well as men. Ladies had not the resource of making or superin- tending their own dresses, and being, with rare exceptions, unprovided with out-door amusements, and altogether innocent of literature, what remained to them was a more than German devotion to the kitchen and confection-room, the napery- chest, and the never-ending labours or joys of the tapestry or embroidery frame.

As yet whisky was not, and although small- beer was the drink of the commons, and a mightier ale satisfied the good burghers and lairds, which the highest class sometimes condescended to share, yet French and Southern wines were the drink of the upper orders. My Lord of Holyrood, Abbot Eobert Bellenden, famous for his charity scattered amongst ' poor householders and indigent people,' and his munificent benefactions to his church, lived sump- tuously in his own household, but got his wine cheaper than even -in our days. For three pun- cheons of wine bought in Middleburgh, he had to pay only £7, 16s., and he actually got two pun- cheons of claret for £1 each.^ Another correspon- dent, Andrew Moubray, younger, who may have dealt in wine, among other commodities, buys two tuns of Gascony claret for £4 a tun, and two butts of Malmesey (Malvoisie), which cost together £12, 13s. 6d., but in both cases the wine was bought in 1 p. 99.

But Art did at last follow in the path of commerce ; and a century after Haly- burton had exchanged the wool of Scotland for the luxuries of the Netherlands, our first Scotch painter went from Aberdeen to learn his art at the feet of Eubens.-^ We know that at a time before Halyburton's Hangings and period, the walls of rooms unplastered, were hung "^^^ ^' with cloth, which also covered the doors. In the apartments of greater houses, these hangings were from the looms of Arras, and we find in Halybur- ton's accounts that this beautiful manufacture was also used for bed-hangings.^ Carpets for the floor were not yet invented. Straw and rushes in the public-rooms did their duty, but benches and settles had coverings which also came from Arras and the Netherlands. A few measures of wheat were imported from the Com.

The history of the connexion of Scotland with the Netherlands is really the history of Scotch trade. As I have endeavoured to show, two countries so circumstanced, inhabited by kindred people, each affording so much that was wanted by the other, could not fail to be drawn together.

The next contribution to the history of Scotch trade, included in this volume, is the Tariff or Table Taiifi' of of Eates of Custom, and Valuation of Merchandises, "^ ""'^' settled by Royal' Warrant, in 1612. It was chosen as the most complete of tliose Customs tables, which seem to have originated in a very practical Conven- tion of the Estates, held at Dundee in May 1597. When it was printed it was believed also to be the earliest extant, but since it has gone through the press another table has been discovered, nearer the date of that Convention at Dundee, settled indeed EaiHei- Taiie of 1597. in the same year, 1597, which, though not so com- plete as that here printed, affords some additional light by its variations, and a few of these will be found at the end of this Preface. When I bring these forward as early tariffs, I only mean that they represent the earliest attempts to collect and value all articles of export and import liable in custom. It would be a great mistake to suppose these the first authoritative Customs tables, for in truth there are perhaps no older documents of a public nature than some of the rude and little Digitized by Microsoft® Ixxxviii THE PEEFACE. discriminating lists of duties on imports and exports Such Tallies that are found in our ancient law manuscripts.

It is diflBcult in those very early lists to distinguish between the great or King's custom and the harbour dues or petty customs in which the burgh had an interest, nor is it now of much importance ; for no labour bestowed on estimating the change in the value of money can make the information these old tables afford as to rates and prices of any value. What interests us now is to ascertain the commo- dities themselves, the articles of commerce in that early time. The most authentic materials for that purpose are collected in the first volume of the folio edition of the Acts of Parliament of Scotland. Such rude tables as are there printed, modified by the changes of many ages, and subject to the contiimal fluctuation of the value of money, must have been used as the warrants for collecting customs down to about the time at which we are now arrived. Mny 1597. The Convention of Estates at Dundee set them- selves in good earnest, and according to their lights, to regulate and improve the Eevenue. Among other 1 Acta Pari. Scot. vol. i. and Preface.

This part of their ordi- nance was at once complied with, and probably that ABC was used as the rule of custom taxation for a few years. But it was soon found to be defective ; some of the rates were too high, others too low, and a number of commodities were altogether omitted.^ To remedy these defects, the tariff of 1612, now printed, was framed, and it seems to have been the authoritative warrant for customs through aU that disturbed time down to the Eestoration, It is certainly very carefully formed, although we Tariff of 1612. may regret that it appears intended to contain and exhaust all articles of possible commerce.

For instance, the very first entry of articles for Export is the same commodity which stands at the head of the Imports ; the only difference is that Aires (oars) on being transported out of the kingdom are to pay five pound the hundred, while they are set down amongst Imports at a duty of twenty pounds. So Brazil, a dye-wood, Cables, a foreign manu- facture, and other foreign commodities entered in the list of Scotch exports, show that many of these duties are rather transit dues than common customs of export. Suggestive as is this large catalogue of the arti- cles of commerce of two and a half centuries ago, one thing is particularly striking, — the dispropor- tionate importance and room allowed to the head of ' Drugs.'

Customs table of 1612 is certainly very remarkable, in consequence of its extent and variety, and is calculated to give to the medical profession and others a higher estimate of the " cunning and mystery" of the art of the apothecary and physician in Scotland two and a-half centuries ago, than we Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. xci can derive from any other source with which I am acquainted. In the list — so very ably read and glossed by Professor Maclagan — there are named above 220 diflferent medicinal and chemical sub- stances. Of these about a fourth are still retained in the last British Pharmacopoeia of 1864. ' At the date of the Table of Customs, a great battle, begun in the previous century, was still waging in the European schools of physic between the two opposite sects of the Galenists and Chem- ists. The former declared stoutly and long for all the old internal medicines mentioned in the Greek works of Galen, and hence almost entirely for drugs derived from the vegetable and animal kingdoms. The Chemists again fought for the administration internally of metallic and chemical remedies, as antimony, mercur}', etc., various salts, and distilled waters, oUs, and extracts. It is interesting to observe among the medicines imported into Scotland in 1612, a goodly sprinkling of medicinal metals and salts. For, only three years previously, or in 1609, the strife between the Galenists and Chemists was stiU so fierce on the Continent, that M. Besnier, a Parisian physician, was expelled from the Faculty of Medicine for administering antimony to a patient, the Supreme Council of Paris having totally pro- scribed its use some fifty years before. ' This drug tariff possesses additional interest when we couple it with the fact, that, at its date, the practice of physicians in Scotland was still Digitized by Microsoft® xcii THE PEEFACE. commingled with many superstitious practices and beliefs, as with faith in the King's touch for the cure of scrofula (Charles ii. touched 92,000 such patients, and his " Ohirurgion," John Browne, tells us the marvels produced by the royal finger were only doubted by " Ill-affected men and Dissenters") ; in the efficacy of charm-stones, like the Lee Penny (for the purchase of which, in the reign of Charles I., the magistrates of Newcastle offered to forfeit £6000) ; and in the healing power of holy wells, amulets, relics, phylacteries, abracadabras, etc. As late as the middle of the last century the Edinburgh College of Physicians published in their Pharma- copoeia a formula for the Decoctum ad Ictericos, — a compound which, like some used in other diseases, acted according to the old doctrine of Signatures ; that is to say, the patient was yellow, and this yellow mixture was given with the hope of curing him of his yellowness. ' Ample as the catalogue is, however, it would be wrong to suppose that the list of drugs imported in 1612 contains a fuU enumeration of all the medi- cines employed by the Scottish Leeches and Medi- ciners of those days. They used in addition various " simples" that could be obtained at home, and did not require to be imported. In the first Scottish Pharmacopoeia, pubHshed by the Edinburgh Royal College of Physicians in 1699,^ there is an enumera- 1 Though this is the oldest an- earlier shop-list of drugs was pub- thoriaed Scotch Pharmacopoeia, an lished in 1625. It is a very Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. XCUl tion of the whole Materia Medica of that day. In this list are some strange native " simples," and still stranger " compounds." For instance, among the list of remedies obtainable from the animal kingdom to be got at home, and used in ointments, lotions, potions, etc., are " Lumbrici terrestres," " Millepedae," " Ci- cadae," " Formicae," " Limaces," " Bufo," " Eanae," ' Hirundines " as well as " Hirudines," the " Fel Catuli, Perdicis et Tauri," the " Sanguis Columbae, Hirci et Leporis," some thirteen " Stercora," and among them " Stercus Anserinum, Ovile, Equi non castrati, Vaccinum, Humanum," etc. ; the " Testes Equi et Galli," the " Secundina Humana," and dis- tilled preparations from the dead human subject,-^ as the spirit, volatile salt, and oil from the " Cranium Hominis violentei morte extincti." Another " simple," laid down in the first Edinburgh Pharmacopoeia as required to be furnished and ready in all proper apothecaries' shops, namely the " Urina pueri impu- beris," could be pro^T-ded, of course, by any young curious, and, I believe, a rare thin quarto volume, from the press of Edward Raban, printed at Aberdeen. It is entitled ' Pbar- maco-Pinax, or a Table and Taxe of the Pryoea of all vsuall Medi- caments, simple and composed, contayned in D. Gordon's Apo- tbecarie and Cbymicall Shop with- in Mr. Robert Parquhar's high lodging in New Aberdene.' 1 The first Edinburgh Pharma- copoeia contains another human product as a drug — and one neces- sarily an imported drug — (it is, indeed, mentioned in the Table of 1612) — viz., Egyptian mummy (Mumia), the best samples of which, observed Dr. Alston iu his 'Lectui'es on Materia Medica in the' University^ of Edinburgh' (London 1770), ' are rare in Europe and costly.' They are, he adds, ' said to dissolve coagulated blood, and are commended for the vertigo, apoplexy, palsy, epilepsy, con- vulsive and hysteric disorders, con- tusions, gangrenes, pleurisies, etc' Digitized by Microsoft® xciv THE PEEFACE. apprentice belonging to these establishments. This ingredient, or at least the "Urina Juvenis sani," enters into the composition of the " Aqua Styptica" of this Pharmacopoeia of 1699. In it also we have various other very complicated and very strange compounds, — as a " Pulvis ad Partum," containing a quantity of dried " Testiculorum Caballinorum ;" a plaster made by boiling together live frogs, " Ranae vivae," earthworms, etc., etc. ' If we only possessed the list of medicines im- ported into Scotland in 1612, and which was drawn out some eighty years before the appearance of the first Edinburgh Pharmacopoeia, we should now per- haps entertain more respect for the Scottish physi- cians and drugs of the seventeenth century. But the home supplies of drugs mentioned in the official Edinburgh Pharmacopoeia of 1699 are awkwardly detractive, and rather revolting.'

In 1609, the king lets, for the yearly rent of 115,000 marks, the whole customs, inward and out- ward, together with the whole old and new imposts of the wines ; reserving the right given by sundry Acts of Parliament to noblemen, barons and free- holders, of sending out of the realm their own merchandise and goods grown on their own ground, and to bring in necessary commodities for furnish- ing their households free of custom. I think this exemption was not ancient with us in Scotland. How far it was operative I do not find the means of ascertaining.^ The next minute information of the state of trade in Scotland, is derived from some accounts stiU preserved of the payments to the Customers at the tiane, Johne Aruot burgess of Edinburgh, Andro Woode of Largo, Thomas Fleming, Wm. Barclay of Innergellie, James Eiddell in Leyth — as Cautioners. 1 This bad privilege was not likely to get into desuetude, like other Scotch laws ; but I do not find when it was put an end to. If Cromwell abated the nuisance, that might account for the uni- versal encouragement of smuggling after his time by aU classes, but notably by the gentry, aggrieved by the withdrawsil of their privi- lege. On the north-east coast, especially in Morayshire, for a century after the Restoration, everybody in town and country used brandy and foreign goods, all duty free ; and the best gentry lent their stables and their ser- vants and horses to help the • free trader.'

Imperfect as these are, they throw some light oh the manufactures, as well as on the exports and im- ports of our burghs. oustomsat The flrst shipment from Aberdeen is on 2d May. 1617. ' The bark of Alexander Eamsay for Flanders was charged with custom upon plaiding (11,380 eUs), in packs, pacquets, and rolls, and 2700 woolskius. Another bark of Aberdeen, called the 'Margaret,' master, under God, Kobert Fiddes, bound for Flan- ders, was charged for 2800 eUs of plaiding, and 300 woolskins. The 'Bon Accord,' Patrick Findlay, master, sailed from Aberdeen to Flanders, with 10,300 ells of plaiding, and 400 woolskins. In the same year two little barks took cargoes amounting to 8000 lambskins, and 2500 ells of plaiding, to Danskyn. On the 9 th of August, the ' Greiffhound,' a bark of Aberdeen, was loaded for Dieppe, with 21 lasts 2 barrels salmon. On the next day, the ' Bless- ing,' a bark of Leith, sailed from Aberdeen for Dieppe, with 18 lasts 9 barrels of salmon. On the 13th of August, the ' Blessing,' a bark of Dundee, sailed from Aberdeen to Dieppe, with 29 lasts 10 barrels of salmon. On the penult of October, the bark of Aberdeen, the ' Star,' took 2 lasts 6 barrels of Aber- deen salmon, 15 lasts and 18 barrels of Spey fish, along with 100 ells of plaiding, and 10 dakers of goatskins, and 2 dakers of wild leather, or deer skins. These seem to be all the goods shipped from Aberdeen in the year 1617, for which either custom Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. xcvii was taken or bullion was to be returned. I think all the ships are Scotch. I cannot account for all the salmon going to Dieppe. No account of that year's imports at Aberdeen is preserved. None of these imperfect accounts of Customs North. jiotice any ports to the north of Aberdeen. This may be simply accidental. There certainly was always some small traffic between Flanders and the Moray Firth, but perhaps the customs were not very regularly or easily levied in that northern region, which deprives us of the only light which we might have on the subject.

Cloth, hardware, gloves, English cloth and cottons, with rabbit and other common furs, are sent to Stockholm and the Baltic. Scotch salmon---it is brought under cocquet from Dundee, Banff, Elgin, but chiefly, and in the largest quantity, from Aberdeen — is acceptable everywhere. Her- rings, whether white or red, are shipped only in very small quantities. The export to Ireland, (one cargo goes direct to Londonderry) is wheat, flour, malt, meal, and salt. London is the only English port to which cargoes are consigned from Leith ; and London and Flanders fairly divide the export trade. Perhaps the most remarkable thing of the account is the almost entire absence of jvool. Even the few sacks of Halyburton's days are there no longer, and one is led almost to believe that the Scotch Act of Parliament for retaining and manu- facturing it at home had taken some effect.'' A subsequent part of the same account gives us imports by at least a partial view of the Imports of the year. It is titled, 'Inward fra London,' and states the duties of the ' London wares,' brought by land to Edinburgh. These are chiefly, London cloth, cam- lets, bais, carsayes, Yorkshire cloth, calzico, silk, and passments, meaning embroidery, and a great many productions of the loom, with names which ^ 1597, noticed above.

It had not yet occurred that Scotland should treat England as other than a foreign country, England doubtless reciprocating the feehng. Free trade X fcw years later, when the Government of Scot- under Crom- •' well. land as well as of England had fallen into the hands of Cromwell, the barriers at Carlisle and Berwick, the odious duties which made England and Scotland foreign to each other, were swept away. ' Freedom of trade between the two coun- tries was established by the ordinance or constitu- tion of 12th April 1654, in the fullest terms, and without one of the qualifications, which in subse- quent projects for communicating trade privileges to the Scots, were so perseveringly and pertina- ciously retained, untU the whole was at last wrung from the reluctant gripe of English trade mono- polists.'^ The author whose words I quote, tells us, it was during the few years of prosperity that fol- lowed this emancipation of trade, that ' many of our commercial cities arose.

London cloth, or any sort of fine broad woollen cloth, pays ten ' shillings the ell ; Yorkshire or any sort of coarse broad cloth, four shillings ; English, Irish, and all other sorts of wool, are charged indis- criminately at a duty of £1 the hundredweight ; 'Mum-beer' is charged 18s. the barrel, and all other beer £2, 8s. the barrel at import. There is no pre- ference for English ale, which is not even mentioned, while Scotland seems to have exported some of home manufacture. Popular feeling The inconvenience of such an exclusive system of against free . . . - trade. customs, between two countries joined under one government, must have been very apparent ; but I think it was seen and admitted by the Government sooner than by the people. Successive ministries were desirous of removing the barrier which kept the two nations jealously separate. A commission Repeated fail- was appointed in 1657-8 to treat of mutual freedom duties between of trade between England and Scotland, and failed, tries. chiefly perhaps through the ignorant jealousy of the Scotch burghs, and from a natural resentment at their exclusion from trade with the English colonies. of ten hides, wet or dry, 6s. 8d. ; 4s. the piece.

Even after the Eevolution, a new commission had lesg. no better fortune. It is well known through what obstacles, and The Union, especially against what popular discontent, the Union was at length carried in 1707. The mutual dislike of the nations was still strong, and the Scotch aversion to any measure proposed by Eng- land was only overcome by the wholesome necessity of escaping the rigour of the Navigation laws, and of breaking through the exclusive monopoly of the English Colonial trade. It was some time before the good effects of the Progress of Union were felt in the trade of Scotland ; and even Union. down to our own day there existed some ground to complain of restrictions on manufactures and excise duties unequally applied in the two countries ; but these were trifling grievances, serving only to mark the general well-being. After the political storms of the last century had passed over, and since the only mischievous remains of our feudal system were swept away by the Act aboHshing Heritable Juris- 20 Geo. 11. diction, Scotland has had no real cause of complaint. ^ d ^743. Her commerce, dating almost from that last legis- lative measure, has gone on increasing, and the country, relieved from the old fetters, has sprung forward in industry and enterprise, in wealth and cultivation, with a rapidity which I believe to be unequalled.

I am much obliged to Lord Dunfermline for an introduction to Mr. Ward, H.M. Charg^ d'Affaires at the Hague, who was good enough to procure me information, as well as to offer me introductions that would have been invaluable if I had been able to prosecute my inquiries in Holland. Mr. Dasent, to whom the world stiU looks, for a version of the Orkney saga, kept me right as to the relations of his friends the Vikings with our Scotch court. My brother Professors and friends, Sir James Y. Simpson and Dr. Douglas Maclagan, took pity upon me in my attempts to explain the long list of drugs which forms so curious a part of the tariff of 1612 ; I have enriched the pages of this Preface with Professor Simpson's observations ; and the supple- ment to the Glossary, under the title ' Drugs,' wiU be more valued, when I state that I owe it to Pro- fessor Maclagan's active friendship. The eminence of those gentlemen in that department of science gives their exposition of the old pharmacopoeia an authority which it would have wanted coming fromme. Mr. Small, librarian to the University, has assisted me during the whole progress of the work, besides taking charge of the first transcript. Other friends have helped me, of whose friend- Digitized by Microsoft® THE PEEFACE. cxi ship any man might be proud, but I beg leave to thank them without naming them. I would avoid the accusation of vanity, and the appearance of throwing upon others a responsibility which should rest upon myself. He who suggested the work, and who assisted and counselled me tUl the text was printed, is gone beyond the reach of my thanks. I must not let the first of a series of Scotch Eecord Publications go out iuto the world without the name of Joseph Eobert- son; but this is not the place for expressing the debt which I and all historical inquirers and the country owe to him. StiU less can I venture here to speak of the affectionate regard with which his friends cherish his memory. C. INNES.
