They also ask for the provisions which should accompany the faculties. The petition was discussed at PF meeting on 30 June 1659, but the notes showing the decision on f. 85v are illegible. The petition is unsigned and undated.

Date discussed 1659-06-30

Additional comments

This petition was probably written by the procurator of the Scottish mission, William Ballentyne, since the handwriting is the same as that of other letters written by him.
