[Stewart, Sir James]. An Accompt of Scotlands Grievances by Reason of the D. of Lauderdales Ministrie, Humbly Tendred to his Sacred Majesty, [?Edinburgh, 1675], 52pp., title creased, B2 with short repaired tear, a few lower corners torn away, light soiling, bookplates, 19th c. green half morocco, lightly rubbed, small 4to. One of several anonymous undated editions. Sir James Stewart (1635-1713), a devout Covenanter here attacks Lauderdale`s administration of Scotland, accusing him of corruption of the mint and coinage, and that monopolies of salt and brandy-wine with the tax on imported tobacco put money into private pockets instead of public coffers. Charles II ordered the privy council to apprehend Stewart on charges of treason and sedition, but escaped arrest and lived under the alias Lawson in England. Provenance: bookplate of antiquary Robert Pitcairn, with his manuscript note: `This copy of a very curious & rare Scottish tract formed part of a vol. collected by Mylne of Balquharg (No. 32) & was purchased by me along with sev[eral] other similar tracts`. Wing S5532A. (1)
