{74} We shall see that reformers like Lord James and Glencairn seem, at this moment, to have sided with Mary of Guise.

{87a} Wodrow Miscellany, vol. i.

{87b} Here the “Historie of the Estate” is corroborated by the Treasurer’s Accounts, recording payment to Rothesay Herald.  He is summoning George Lovell, David Ferguson (a preacher, later minister of Dunfermline), and others unnamed to appear at Edinburgh on July 28, to answer for “wrongous using and wresting of the Scriptures, disputing upon erroneous opinions, and eating flesh in Lent,” and at other times forbidden by Acts of Parliament (M’Crie, 359, note G).  Nothing is here said about riotous iconoclasm, but Lovell had been at the hanging of an image of St. Francis as early as 1543, and in many such godly exercises, or was accused of these acts of zeal.

{87c} “Historie of the Estate of Scotland,” Wodrow Miscellany, i. 53-55.

{88a} Knox, i. 301.

{88b} Knox appears (he is very vague) to date Calder’s petition after Willock’s second visit, which the “Historie of the Estate of Scotland” places in October 1558.  Dr. M’Crie accepts that date, but finds that Knox places Calder’s petition before the burning of Myln, in April 1559.  Dr. M’Crie suggests that perhaps Calder petitioned twice, but deems Knox in the right.  As the Reformer contradicts himself, unless there were two Calder petitions (i. 301, i. 307), he must have made an oversight.
