The Charter of Liberties was issued by Henry I upon his ascension to the throne in 1100, addressing abuses of royal power, such as over-taxation of the barons, the abuse of vacant sees, and the practices of simony and pluralism. It was generally ignored by monarchs until 1213, when Langton, the Archbishop of Canterbury, reminded the nobles that their liberties had been guaranteed a century before. In the face of such unified opposition King John opened negotiations and the Magna Carta was signed two years later.

[Anon., British, n.d., c.1820s.]
Lithographic copy of a charter granted by King Malcolm III of Scotland; broadside, hand colouring to crest, sheet 370 x 265mm. 14½ x 10½". Handling creases; bodycolour a little smudged. Glued onto a scrap album page, with tissue guard.
The single page grant of land to one of his Barons by the king of Scotland was apparently discovered c.1799 in an old oak chest in the church at Dumbarton, central Scotland. A very unusual piece of Scottish historical ephemera. Macbeth (immortalised by Shakespeare) murdered Duncan to claim the Scottish throne for himself. Malcolm eldest son of Duncan was installed as ruler of Perth and Fife by a combined army of English, Norse and lowland Scots. In 1057 Macbeth was killed by Malcolm in battle at Lumphanan in Mar, Aberdeenshire. This tale was reported in "the Mirror" of literature, amusement, and instruction, in 1839.

A half-length portrait of Scottish landowner Francis Wemyss Charteris (1723-1808), second son of James, 5th Earl of Wemyss. His elder brother David, Lord Elcho, should have become 6th Earl in 1756, but had been attainted for his part in the Jacobite Rising of 1745. On David's death in 1787, without a legitimate heir, Francis claimed the title of 7th Earl of Wemyss, but it was not until 1826 that his grandson obtained a reversal of the attainder.
