Linlithgow, and he seems to have held the other half of Strathbrock from Keith of Inverugy. He had attained the rank of Knight before 1440, when he is so styled as a witness to royal charters, and when he and Sir William Crichton of that Ilk, afterwards Chancellor, granted what may be called mutual entails of certain lands.
