| King David II granted, 15 March 1357-58, the barony of Terregles in Nithsdale to Sir John Heryz, Margaret his wife, and their heirs. Herries had charters of the same barony, 17 October 1364, and of the lands of Kirkgunzeon in Galloway, 12 June 1367 ; and on 6 June 1366 the lands of Terregles were erected into a regality for him and the lawful heirs-male of his body. Sir John Herys, no doubt the same person, was a witness to the ratification of the treaty for the ransom of David II in October 1357, attended a Parliament at Scone 26 October 1359, and had English safe-conducts in 1365 when returning from Flanders to Scotland ; in 1372 to go into Annandale (then in the hands of the English) with his son John, his tenants, and cattle ; and in February 1381-82 to go on pilgrimage to Canterbury with eight horsemen in his train.2 | ||
