General Notes:
"SIR WALTER, who was one of the hostages for the ransom of King James I., and as such was in England from the beginning of 1424 till at all events Michaelmas 1425. He was knighted in absence at the coronation of
James I. at Scone 21 May 1423. On 24 January 1429-30 he had, along with other Scottish Oommissioners, a safeconduct to meet the English at Hawdenstank for the redress of complaints. He appears as Lord High Treasurer on 5 July 1438.6 He is generally stated to have been created a Peer of Parliament, but this is very doubtful, and it is more probable that it was his son who was the first Peer. He died before 10 May 1447, when his son John, Lord Haliburton, refers to him as deceased."
