To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Wilson, is a Celtic word (or words) Tigh-an-Righ, which signifies in our language "King's House." The pronunciation of Tigh-an- Righ in Gaelic is very nearly as we pronounce the modern name Tyrie. Dr. Wilson, in his Gazetteer of Scotland, says the name Tyrie is supposed to be derived from a building of an ecclesiastical kind, erected about the beginning of the 11th century, the ruins of which stand near Fraserburgh, in the County of Al)erdeen, and which portion of Aberdeenshire is now known as ...the Parish of Digitized by VjOOQ IC THE TYRIES. 23 Tyrie. At this time surnames were not in use in Scotland, and I am of opinion the Gaelic language does not require surnames to designate or distinguish one from another, so I may here be allowed to conjecture an opinion of the origination of the name as a family one — viz., the first person who bore the name De Tiry (or in English of Tyrie) was owner of the lands now known as the Parish of Tyrie, and it is probable that he was also the Chancellor of Malcolm Canmore's reign, "or Maormor, a term by which we are to understand the civil ruler of a district." A Chancellor at this time was a kind of legal scribe, so called from his position at the Cancelli of the Courts of law, and he was also keeper of the King's House, as none could enter or get an audience with His Majesty until this official Chan- cellor gave an introduction, and he, the Chancellor seems to have been invested vnth judicial powers and a general superintendence over the other officers of the King and had power to grant patents, and by him Crown grants were approved and completed at this time.
