It is here proper to remark that, in the excellent preface to the Spalding Club edition of ' Gordon's Description of Both Touns of Aber- deen,' written by Mr. Sheriff Innes, it is mentioned that the engraving, accompanying that volume, of the ancient seals of the burgh, is from impressions of a brass seal and counter-seal in the possession of Mr. Walter Duthie, W.S.
