_Smith's Vitæ Eruditissimorum et Illustrium Virorum._--In his _Life of Sir
Peter Young_ he quotes _Ex Ephemeride Cl. V.D. Petri Junii_, but does not
say where it was preserved. This (so-called) _Ephemeris_ was written by Sir
Peter in his later years, partly perhaps from memory, partly from notes,
and, as might be expected, is not free from errors of date which admit of
correction from other sources. Smith, following Camden, places Easter
Seatown, Young's chief residence, in Lothian, whereas it is in Forfarshire,
about a mile from Arbroath, and was part of the property of the great Abbey
to which that town belonged. Is it known whether this _Ephemeris_ is
extant? and, if so, where?
