at £437.12s. [Shillings] ; but it would appear from the Collector's Book, both before and after that date, that the first, as Lord Kilsyth, was rated only at £686.17s [Shillings] 6d. [pennies] , and the other at £486.17s. [Shillings], under the name of Earl of Wigton. In the disjunction 1786, this Cess Book, and not the disjunction 1755, seems to have been the rule, by which means there is £49.5s.

Note- An increase here of 6d [pennies] in consequence if the disjunction in 1753, being made upon a cumulo of £1336. 15s [Shillings] 8d [Pennies] in place of £1336.15s [Shillings] 2d [Pennies]
