Being records of the Incorporation of Weavers. "The Records of the Incorporation have had a varied fate, some of the earliest having survived while the history of the middle age of the craft is a complete blank. It has always been believed that the Incorporation owes it existence to a gift or seal of cause by the Town Council of Glasgow in 1528"
