Note - These two parcels of Land are stated to be parts of that part of Newton disjoined 5th Nov. 1765, as possessed by Robert Cummings, at £85.0.6¼ and by James Morrison, at £60.10.10¼ [total] £145.11.4½

[page 11]
Note - A loss of 8¾d. seems to be sustained upon the foregoing disjunctions. Upon the 20th December, 1798, the following disjunction appears to be made upon the petition of John Dallas of North Newton.

That part of the Barony of Newton belonging to Mr Dallas.........£12.6.6
The remainder of the said Barony, belonging to Lord Dundas £630.12.3
Amounting to ............£642.19.0

In these proceedings the disjunction of Lord Dundas' part of Newton, made 5th November, 1765, have not been taken notice of, the cumulo standing in the Collector's book having been made the rule; and as it is not specified from what parcel the valuation above disjoined to Mr Dallas has been taken, it has not been found practicable to apply it to any of the parcels disjoined in 1765, and therefore, although the £630 12s [shillings] 3d [pennies to Lord Dundas, and the £12 6s. [shillings]9d. [pennies] to Mr Dallas, have both been continued in the Collector's book, and no notice taken of the disjunction in 1765,it has been considered as more correct to insert the latter in the text, and to make theformer the subject of a Note.
