Abstract

When a chapel was endowed by a patron, the chapel was required to sing mass for their benefactors and this manuscript contains a list of these obituaries, most likely from Moray. There is also a list of Scottish and Irish Saints.

 

Meeting notes for June 9, 1856 are appended. At this meeting a letter regarding the preservation of a Pictish symbol stone at Keillor.
