[1] Wallace wrote that King James had told Sophie of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, Anne's mother, of Barnbarroch's good service and the voyage in his little ship.
He had heard that the dowry money would not be spent, "broikin", which displeased many, this was a reference to controversy between Chancellor Maitland and the Earl Marischal and his kinsman William Keith of Delny.
[2] Wallace also wrote that he had given Barnbarroch's good wishes to Gert or Gerhard Rantzau (d. 1627), Captain of Kronborg, Henrik Ramel or Ramelius, and Richard Wedderburn who had a house at Helsingør.
Rantzau had written to Barnbarroch in August 1588 mentioning Andrew Keith, Lord Dingwall and Failford's brother John Wallace as his kinsman.
