a Scotch clergyman, was minister at Auchterderran in 1599. He was one of the fifty-four ministers who signed the protestation in behalf of the liberties of the Kirk in 1617, and appeared before the Court of High Commission in 1620, for not keeping holy-days, and not administering the communion according to the Perth form, but owing to sickness he was excused. He died in 1642. See Fasti Eccles. Scoticanae, 2, 521, 522.
