075 | This was the only other religious institution excepting the Cathedral, in ancient times, at Old Aberdeen. It was founded by Bishop Elphinston, in Consequence of a bull from Pope Alexander VI. dated 1st March 1497. The Church which was dedicated to St Mary ad-nives, and situated on the South extremity of the City, was designed for the devotional exercises of the parishioners, after the erection of the Cathedral had been completed for divine Service. In the year 1499 the Bishop annexed the Church and the Vicarage to the College, then recently instituted, and, in the year 1503, he, with consent of the Rector and Chaplain of St Peter's Hospital, allocated to the Rector of the Church, who was the Dean of the chapter, a Manse, and a glebe, from the Hospital in its close vicinity. After the Reformation, the Church, with the Paronage and Vicarage, was granted by King James VI. to King's College, and confirmed by an Act of Parliament in the year 1617. The only part which remains of the ecclesiastical foundation is the cemetery, used as a place of sepulture by some of the Roman Catholic families of Aberdeen |

Transcriber's notes
There is no separate text for Burial Ground. The word "Cemetery" in the last sentence is underlined in red. Does this suggest that the collector has meant his text to apply to the two places names?
