1 The appointment of Sandilands as Civilist, 1st April, 1640, drew from Spalding the commentary - 'Strange to sie ane man admittit to teiche lawis who was never out of the countrie studdeing and lerning the lawis.'
When the silver keys of the city were presented to King Charles II. on his arrival in Aberdeen in 1650, Sandilands had the honour, in the name of the community, to deliver an eloquent Latin oration. The King was so favourably impressed that he is said to have afterwards named Sandilands as a Senator of the College of Justice, but death prevented its acceptance."
