New Macer for the Lyon Court

The Lord Lyon has appointed Mr Roderick Macpherson, Messenger-at-Arms, of Rutherford and Macpherson, Messengers-at-Arms, Glasgow, as his Macer. It is thought that this is the first time a macer has been appointed from the West of Scotland. Mr Macpherson is a doughty defender of the traditional rights and privileges of the Messengers-at-arms as can be read here.
