Notizen zu dieser Person

3rd Lord Hailes; 1st Earl of Bothwell; September 10, 1488, appointed Great Admiral of Scotlandf of Berwick on 15th June 1480. He succeeded his grandfather as 2nd Lord Hailes shortly after December 1482. He was one of the Conservators of a truce with England, 20th September 1484. He was one of the leaders of the Confederate Lords who rebelled against Kg. James III and he led the van against the royal array at the battle of Sauchieburn on 14th June 1488. Robert Birrel (1532-1605), writing in his diary which was printed in Dalyell's "Fragments of Scottish History", seems to have believed that he was one of those responsible for the murder of Kg. James after that battle. Under the new reign he rose to great power and held many offices. He became Master of the Kg.'s Household, custodian of Edinburgh castle and Sheriff-Principal of Edinburgh and Haddington. He was appointed Great Admiral of the kingdom, for life, on the 10th September, 1488. On 17th October 1488 he was belted Earl of Bothwell, in full Parliament, following the forfeiture of John Ramsay. Other appointments abound and it is not necessary to list them all here. He was one of the plenipotentiaries sent to conclude the treaty for the marriage of Kg. James IV with Princess Margaret Tudor of England in October 1501 and he stood proxy for the Kg. at the ceremony of betrothal on 25th January 1502.
