(Abstract.)
Colin Cambell makes it known to all men that by a solemn oath he
has bound himself to Gilbert of Glastrod to act for the said Gilbert
within the sheriffdom of Argyll in his just affairs during the time
granted to him by the said Gilbert. And in the event of any dispute
arising between any of his kinsfolk and the said Gilbert to aid the said
Gilbert against such kinsman or kinswoman at the sight of arbiters
named by the said Gilbert, and to give up the office or bailiary granted
to him when the said Gilbert shall so desire. And for the due observance
of these undertakings his father Gillespy Cambell, Lord of Lochore, is
cautioner.

1 The church of St. Mund in Cowall, situated at Kilmun on the Holy
Loch, was made into a collegiate foundation in 1442 by Colin's son Duncan
na-Adh. According to tradition his eldest son Celestine was buried there, and
it has certainly been the burial-place of the House of Argyll ever since. The
whole subject is dealt with by the Duke of Argyll in The Scottish Historical
Review, vol. x. pp. 29 et seq.
2 The festival of SS. Simon (Zelotes) and Jude falls on October 28.
