Other note

'A. L.' compiled a series of sermons principally by Robert Meldrum (c. 1653-1699) in the 1680s (see The Melford Hall Manuscript, British Library, Egerton MS 3884). It is conjectured by the Sotheby's cataloguer that 'A. L.' may have been a secretary or other highly literate member of the Tweeddale household in East Lothian, Scotland.
