STRATHBLANE PARISH -- (CONTINUED.)

[Included with Walter Stewart, Provost of Dunbarton entry] NOTE. -- No Cess has been paid for this for many years, and it has not been found practical precisely to ascertain any particular Land or Subject to which the valuation can be attached. According to the best information which has been got, the Duke of Montrose appears to have been Heritable Patron of the Provostry of the Collegiate Church at Dumbarton, to which Provostry, and Patrimony thereof, the tiends of the parishes of Fintry and Strathblane belonged; and it is supposed that his Grace, in that character, received certain tiend duty from the Heritors, which was the subject of valuation in the Cess Roll, like Mar's Tiend in Saint Ninians Parish, and others in the preceding pages; and that the Provost, who was appointed by his Grace, paid the Cess therefor; -- but when, by the augmentation of the stipend of the parish, the whole tiends were given to the Minister, they were withdrawn from the Duke, who, it is presumed, then ceased to pay the Cess for what was thus taken from him. -- The probability of the explanation now given, is considerably strengthened by the fact that the whole tiends were given to the Minister by the augmentation modified in 1793, and that no Cess has been paid since that year, while for that, and a considerable number of years previously, the Cess was regularly paid by a person of the name of McLeroy, a writer in Killearn, who was understood to have received it from different persons, but he having gone abroad, although inquiry was made, no information could ever be obtained, nor any papers belonging to him recovered, which could lead to the discovery of the lands or parties liable.
