The town of Elgin found to have the right of presenting the Reader or Precentor, having a gift from the Crown of a fund for maintaining a master of a music school, who was to be bound also to officiate as Reader or Precentor and Session-clerk, with long though disputed succession; but notwithstanding thereof the Kirk-Session was found to have the nomination of their own clerk; and the town likewise found to have the nomination of the beadles.
