075 | [Continued] (P. 29) No.16 Chantry of Saint Peter. This Chantry was founded by Thomas Blindsele, burgess of Aberdeen, who, by a charter, dated the 20th February, 1455, granted and confirmed, to the chaplain of the altar, in perpetuity, an annuity of ten merks, arising from various tenements in the town, and from crofts of land near it, for the support of the establishment of the church, and for celebrating his obit, an annuity of £0.13.4 arising from a tenement in the Castlegate. ----- No.17 Chantry of Saint Ninian, the Confessor. Alexander Irvine of Drum founded this chantry, of which he was lay patron, in the year 1456, and granted to the altar and to the chaplain a perpetual annuity of ten merks to be levied from his lands of Park of Drum, and Bodaracht. ----- (P. 30) No.18 Chantry of Saint Duthac and Saint Brigide. This appears to have been an ancient chantry, and was originally founded by the alderman, baillies, and community of Aberdeen, but the period remains unknown. William Sherar, provost of Aberdeen, by a charter in Mortmain, dated 31st July 1466 granted and confirmed to God, the blessed Virgin Mary, to Saints Duthac and Brigide the Virgin, and to the chaplain of the altar, for celebrating masses for the souls of himself, of his wife, of his parents, brothers, sisters, and benefactors, a tenement in the Shiprow, and perpetual annuities, arising from certain tenements and crofts in the town amounting to £2.5.10. ----- |
