Note 715 — Chapter II · SUMMARY.
Reading edition
Oliver Sinclair was not a young favorite, but an old attached servant of the Crown. We find his name as a gentleman of the bedchamber when James V. was an infant. That he was a cotemporary of Sir David Lindsay will be allowed by those who have read the State Papers, where he is represented as employed in matters of the highest trust in Queen Margaret’s stormy regency.
