[117] Appendix to an answer to the Protestation for Prelates, in Dr M‘Crie’s Collection of Pamphlets, certified by Archibald Jhonston, the Clerk, compared with List in Stevenson’s History, and corrected by the original Commissions. It appears from the original Commissions still extant, and indorsed in the handwriting of Mr Archibald Jhonston, the Clerk, as “produced and approven 24 November 1638,” that three Elders from Dumfriesshire, are omitted in this Roll—viz., John Kennedie of Halleaths, bailie of Lochmaben, Walter Millar, clerk of Annan, and William Grierson, bailie of Sanquhar. The number of Members whose commissions were sustained, amounted at least to 140 Ministers and 100 Ruling Elders.
