_Scologlandis and Scologi._--In the _Collections of the Shires of
Aberdeen and Banff_, published by the Spalding Club, and under the
heading "Ellon," p. 310., there is given an
"Inquisicio facta super terris Ecclesie de Ellon. A.D. 1387,"
in which occur several times the two words _Scologlandis_ and _Scologi_.
Neither of these words are found in Ducange; the nearest approach to
either being _Scolanda_, which is considered to be equivalent to _Scrut
landa_, namely, lands the revenue of which is to be applied to the
providing of church vestments. I should be much obliged by any of your
correspondents favouring me with their opinion as to the meaning of
_Scologlandis_ and _Scologi_, which are used in the "Inquisicio" as
follows:
"... Qui jurati deposuerunt quod terre Ecclesiastice de Ellon que
dicuntur le _Scologlandis_....
"... Item quod heres cujuslibet _Scologi_ defuncti intrare
consuevit hereditatem suam."
