On the death of Earl of Lauderdale, Sheriff principal, Mr Linn and Mr Sandiland, Deputies, petitioned the Court to authorize them to continue in their offices till the King name another, which we granted as we had done in the case of Renfrew on Earl of Eglinton's death, and I believe also in Caithness on Ulbster's death, and Earl of Bread-albane being abroad. Vide Fountainhall's Copy Acts of Sederunt, 16th February 1561.
