_The "Temple Lands" in Scotland._--I am anxious to learn some particulars

of these lands. I recollect of reading, some time ago, that the

superiorities of them had been acquired by John B. Gracie, Esq., W. S.

Edinburgh; but whether by purchase or otherwise, I did not ascertain. Mr.

Gracie died some four or five years ago. Perhaps some correspondent will

favour me with some information on the subject. In the Justice Street

of Aberdeen, there is a tenement of houses called Mauchlan or Mauchline

Tower Court, which is said to have belonged to the order. In the charters

of this property, themselves very ancient, reference is made to another,

of about the earliest date at which the order began to acquire property

in Scotland.
