[70] While passing through the press, we observe that Mr. P. Macgregor
Chalmers, in his recent very interesting work, _A Scots Mediæval
Architect_, states that he can prove that these figures illustrate the
seven ages of man. This interpretation is ingenious, and we should be
glad if the proof was made more convincing. Mr. Chalmers is of opinion
that the rood screen is of the time of Bishop Blackadder; but the
work is considerably superior to that of the adjoining altars, which
are certainly by that bishop. It is altogether of finer design and
execution than the work of about 1500. The pinnacles have some analogy
with those of the Dean’s seat in the chapter house.

[87] It has, however, been suggested that, as the parish was anciently
very large, and included Kincardine, possibly the old parish church,
which is about a mile off in the country, was used for the landward
district, while that of the abbey was the parish church of the town.

[101] “A Boar’s head, and on a chief indented 3 mullets, which are
probably the arms of James Hasmall, who was abbot of the monastery at
this time.”--_Descriptive Catalogue of Ancient Scottish Seals_, by
Henry Laing, No. 1090. Laing gives no authority for this supposition;
while in the Workman MSS. the same arms are assigned to Schewall of
that Ilk. Edward Schewall was abbot in 1526 and 1528. When he died is
not known. So that it is quite as likely that the arms on the sixth
shield are those of Abbot Schewall as that they refer to Abbot Hasmall.
