[An agreement is formed, whereby] Robert Avenel and Gervase his heir have quitclaimed in perpetuity that 4 marks which the monks of Melrose were wont to render annually in rent for their lands of Eskdale (DMF). The abbot and convent have granted faithfully to Robert and Gervase his heir the aforesaid pittance in perpetuity owed four times a year, on these days: the day on which Robert himself relinquished the secular life, the day on which Sir Robert dies, the sixth day after Christmas, in commemoration of the soul of Lady Sybilla, Robert’s wife, and the day of Gervase’s death. On these days, there will be a commemoration and absolution of their souls in perpetuity.
