For a change, this scroll with very excellent period text is not by me, it was for me:

To all those who shall see or hear these present letters, Rowen Cloteworthy, otherwise called Brigantia Principal Herald of the East, sends greetings and all humble recommendation. It is a right and just thing that persons offering service both exemplary and lengthy be rewarded for their merits by renown and in all places with great honour. Therefore I, with the drawing of this charter, by the right of my office, and with the full knowledge and blessing of the Crown, in recognition of long-pursued efforts on behalf of the College and of heraldry, do hereby name, appoint, and endow Alys Mackyntoich with the style of Herald Extraordinaire and furthermore charge that the aforesaid consult the Laurel College of Arms with the intent to register a title suitable for this new station. In witness whereof I, Brigantia Principal Herald above named, have signed with my hand and sealed with my seal these presents, made and given the 23rd day of June, Anno Societatis XLVII, in the Court of Their Majesties Kenric and Avelina, in Their Barony of the Bridge at the Known World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium.

Words by Rowen Brigantia, in the style of a grant of Arms to John Alfrey, 1459/60
