Other broad lands he owns in Ayrshire, but these I will not now touch; but the lands in Lanark, both his own fief and that of the Forbeses, I, as Warden of Scotland, hereby declare forfeit and confiscated, and bestow them upon my good friend, Sir Archie Forbes.

Sir John Grahame, do you proceed tomorrow with five hundred men and take possession of the hold of the Kerrs.

Sir Allan Kerr is still at Stirling, and will not be there to defend it.

Like enough the vassals will make no resistance, but will gladly accept the change of masters.

The Kerrs have the reputation of being hard lords, and their vassals cannot like being forced to fight against the cause of their country.
The hired men-at-arms may resist, but you will know how to make short work of these.
