Marriage Notes:
"He (Robert Duguid) was afterwards, however, contracted in marriage with Marjory Gordon, as then held, incompetently ; but the king, James VI., feeling some indulgence towards him on account of his extreme youth (minime etatis existens), was induced to pass a remission and dispensation in his favour 29th July 1589, wherein, after pardoning the offence in a criminal view, he dispenses with the material objection arising from the survivance of Janet Forbes, his former spouse, and specially declares the marriage he was now to solemnise to be adeo fidele in omnibus respectibbus ac si eandem (Marjory Gordon) in primam uxorem duxisset; that is, to be as binding as if Marjory Gordon was his first wife. The grant, moreover, has an express legitimation of future issue, to the same effect and as fully as if they had been born of the said Robert's first wife."
