the note corresponds with the addition or removal dates of Councillors
on the schedule. |
|

formar
privileges Have purged out of there number John
late
Bailie of Maybole and Thomas McKie Wright in Maybole and

Robt.
Alexr. Merts. in Maybole In place of those purged to be
Councillors. |
|
1723, January 8
It does not appear in the minute in whose place Paterson was
admitted;
indeed there does not seem to have been any vacancy. |
|
1724, May 14
The reason for purging Smith is by the Minute attributed to
their
ordinary custom to change two yearly and therefore they
think
proper to change one this year. |
|
1724, December 30
Note. Paterson’s admission is now explained by the expulsion of
McMurtrie.
The previous notice of his election must have been
an
error in the record. |
|
1726, December 31
Note. Appointed in the room of one awaiting whose name is not
mentioned. |
|
1743, October 18
It does not appear that any person was nominated to supply
the
vacancy occasioned by Campbell being put out. |
|
1743, October 22
Note. Fletcher was voted in place of William on 30 December 1724
and
it does not appear by the minute when he was purged out,
probably
he was one of the three mentioned in the minute of 15 October 1742. |
|
1750, January 5
6 November 1766 Elected a Bailie |
|
1751, September 28
It is not said in whose place Thomas Kennedy came in. |
|
1760, October 8
The minute does not say the
cause of Nimmo and Ronald’s removal, but
only that McCarrie and Niven were elected in their place.
Mr.
Niven elected a Bailie in October 1770 |
|
1770, October
It is not said in whose place these Gentlemen were appointed.
Their
nomination seems to be a post facto being in different ink
altho
the same hand. Probably over a Glass. |
|
1771, December 6
James Fergusson Writer in Maybole appointed Town Clerk in roome
of Claud Hamilton deceased.
See minute of that date. |
|
1772, July 31

to
Coaches and Carriages as they pass and repass along the
street
it was ordered to be removed. |
|
1775, October 19
Note. When Robert Smith writer was introduced as a Councillor is
not
shown in the Minute. He however died as one.
|
|
1776, October 12
Note. There is no other authority for placing this man as a
Councillor
than that he signs the Minute of 5 February 1776, and
in
the minute of 12 Oct. 1776 is designed as such.
|
|
1781, October 24
In regard that the Council is not full but the Minute does not
mention
the number awaiting or the names.
|
|
1785, October 29
In regard that there is many of the old Councillors deceased
and
thereby a vacancy of Councillors.
|
|
1792, March 19
In consequence that the numbers of Councillors are greatly
diminished.
(and same date ref. McLeonan
and Niven) Not being fifteen besides
the Bailies and Treasurer Elected 1 Novr. 1793 but
placed
here by mistake.
|
|
1792, November 3
Admitted in consequence of the death of several of the
Councillors
whose names are not mentioned 26 October 1773. At
this
Election no leat was sent to the Earl of Cassillis as
formerky

|
|
1796, October 21
