Ancient Criminal Trials in Scotland; Compiled from the Original Records and Mss, With Historical Illustrations, Illus, Vol. 3 (Classic Reprint)

(Ward, from the Castle of Edinburgh,1 which was so boldly ...)

Ward, from the Castle of Edinburgh,1 which was so boldly planned, and so successfully accomplished by John Lord Maxwell. The event is thus briefly described in the above mentioned Chronicle, where the cause of Sir James Makconeill sfailure is rightly attributed to the circumstance of his having been unable to extricate himself from his heavy irons, whereby he dislocated or broke his limb, in leaping over the wall. This breaking of ward forms one of the leading Articles of Dittay against Makconeill. (1607, Dec.) In the beginning of December, THE LORD MAXWELL, being wairded in the Caftle of Edin burgh, devifeth a play2 for the keepers, whereby it behoved them to runne out of the houfe where he lay. They lay afide their fwords ;M axwell and another gentleman who came purpoflie to affift him, with the advice of Mackoneill, take their fwords, clofle them in a houfe, come to the Caftle gate, hurt the porters, lappe the Caftle-wall at the utter-gate. Maxwell and his friend departed. Mackoneill, becaufe he had the boyes3 on his legges, wrefted his kute4 in leaping; yett he creeped to a dunghill. The crye5 rifing, he was diligentlie fought, found calling the muck upon himfelf, and was brought to the Caftle agane. This fell furth in the gloming.6 The reft of the Wairders were keeped the ftraiter. Clojburne was intifed be thame, but refufed to breake waird. The anonymous Chronicler, before quoted, thus narrates the proceedings which followed on the recapture of this refractory prisoner. Now as ye have hard befoir, Sir James Mcconeill of Kintyre, being in waird in the Caftell of Edinbroghe, was, one the 13 day of Maii (1609), brocht to the tolbuyth of Edinbrughe, and thair, befoir the Juftice, put to the tryell of ane A flyife, for findrie poyntis of Treflbun, to witt, for Slachter, wnder treft, of fum Heland-men, in his awin hous of Kintyre; as alfo, for diuerfe ffyris (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

The phraseology is carefully revised, so as to be perfectly intelligible to an English reader; and though imprinted at Edinburgh by Andro Hart, immediately after the Trial took place, it must have been revised by some person skilled in the English Law, and familiar with its technicalities and practice. The present reprint has been taken from a copy of the valuable Original Edition, in the Library of the Faculty of Advocates, Edinburgh. Colder-wood, a determined enemy to Episcopacy, has preserved the following curious memorials of these events, in his MS.
