Sir Robert Moray to The Earl of Lauderdale. Whitehall 19 January, 1671. Through the influence of Lady Dysart, Lauderdale had broken with Sir Robert Moray. This dignified letter is the only record, further than the absence of other letters between them being significant, of the difference between them. That it is from Moray to Lauderdale is a fairly certain assumption, but it is neither addressed, signed, nor endorsed. It is in response to Lauderdale's letters of 14 November and 16 December 1670. Sir Robert Moray declines "to reply upon the answeres you here give, least it might continue a Dispute which I doe not desire to intertaine with your Grace; For I ame as willing as yow can be that not only past mistakes may not stick, but that bygones may be bygones, & faire play in time to come..."; f.157.

The Archbishop states that he "can not goe along with the Bishop of Dunblain's concessions, judging them to leave nothing to the authority of a bishop but the insignificant title...".
