[28] The following reading of the arms on this monument is kindly supplied by Mr. W. Rae MacDonald:—On the recessed tomb of Bishop Cardeny in the nave there are several coats of arms. These, so far as they are legible, are—In centre of arch a small shield, quarterly 1st and 4th, a fess chequé (of two rows of panes only) between three open crowns, for Stewart and the Lordship of Garrioch; 2nd and 3rd, a bend between six crosses potent fitchée, for Mar; the 3rd quarter is defaced, but no doubt was the same as the 2nd. These arms appear on the seal of Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar in right of his wife, Isabell Douglas (see Laing’s Seals, Vol. I., No. 796). There is a shield at each end of the arch label; that on the east side is defaced; the west one bears two chevronells engrailed, and has a mitre above it, for Bishop Cardeny. On the pedestal there are four shields, supported by angels under arched canopies, the shields being separated by five figures of ecclesiastics with folded hands, and standing on pedestals. These four shields bear—(1) Three pallets, for Atholl; (2) two chevronells, for Strathearn (?); (3) defaced, but probably same as first; (4) faint traces of two chevronells.
[29] Inscription on tomb of the “Wolf of Badenoch”:—“Hic jacet Alexander Senescalus, filius Roberti Regis Scotorum et Elizabeth More, Dominus de Buchan et Dns de Badenoch, qui obit vigessimo quarto die Julii.” The words in italics have been restored, and there is a mistake in the date, as Alexander Stewart died 20th February 1394.—Monuments and Monumental Inscriptions in Scotland, by Rev. Charles Rogers, LL. D., &c., for Grampian Club, 2 vols., 1871 and 1872.

[241] Since this description was written the foundations of the side walls have been excavated by the Duke of Hamilton, and from these operations it has been discovered that the church was originally of Norman construction. The foundations of a south-west doorway have been laid bare, and show that it has had nook-shafts with Norman bases. A north door, opposite the above, has also been discovered.
