( e ) The Editor is much indebted to Mr. M. J. Shaw-Stewart, for his careful revision of this article. (I) "The dignity of Lord Maxwell appears to be as ancient, as the introduction of Lords of Bail, into the Pari, of Scotland, and the Baron of Maxwell and Caerlaverock was probably one of the Barons on whom the honour of a Lord of 1'itrl. was first con- ferred. Herbert, the 1st. Lord Maxwell, witnessed ill Pari, the charter creating James Hamilton a Beer, on 3 July 1115, and he and four other Peers were specially described us Lords of Parliament."
