| He had sasine of the lands of Ryvel in 1438. He also had two charters under the Great Seal of these lands and others, dated January 1449 and April 1452; in the latter of which, failing Sir Charles and heirs-male of his body, the destination is to the heirs nominated in an entail made by Archibald, Earl of Douglas, to the late Sir Thomas Murray, Knight. Sir Charles was amongst the eight knights who accompanied William, eighth Earl of Douglas, to Rome in the year 1450, but soon afterwards his attachment to that family must have cooled. There is no record of his having supported them at Arkinholm, and in 1457 he appears as one of the commissioners of the peace with England. Two years later he was appointed Warden of the West Marches.6 | ||
