"The Precept of Sasine is directed to Archibald Irvine of Whitestone, who, on 21st January 1602, granted an obligation to infeft his kinsman, Alexander Irvine, fiar of Drum, in the lands of Whitestone (Aberdeen Sasines, vol. ii.). His daughter, Christian, married William Strachan of Tillifroskie, to whose third son, William, he granted a charter of the lands of Whitestone. On 26th September 1604, Archibald Irvine became bound in 500 merks, that Strachan of Tillyfroskie would not slay salmon in forbidden time upon the waters of Dee or Don with any kind of engine (Reg. of Privy Council, vii.,p. 569)."
