Excerpt from The Herald and Genealogist, Vol. 4 The history of the Order of Baronets has been suspended, but will shortly be resumed.

During the past year the Lyon office of arms in Scotland has been regulated by act of parliament; and in the present volume will be found all the information regarding its constitution and practice that can be desired.
