| He was a typical border leader, who took an active part in the feud between the Maxwells and the Murrays, 1480-87, and in other incidents of the time. He obtained a charter dated 1482, and confirmed 1485, from Alexander, Duke of Albany, of the lands of Drumcreiff, and half the lands of Wyseby, the last of which are part of the scene of the battle of Kirtle Water (1484) to which Sir Adam's brother led his followers.4 | ||
