Does anyone happen to have access to a digital copy of the Treasurer Accounts of Scotland Volume 12 (1566-1574)? 🙏🏼🤞🏼
I can only get up to Volume 10 AND the physical copy was missing in the library 😔
Was tempted to wander the floors looking to see who had it since it's reference only but I refrained
