Gudeman was usually applied to a class of small proprietors who held, not from the crown, but from a vassal. Scott, in his notes to the "Lady of the Lake," relates the following: An adventure which had nearly cost the monarch his life, is said to have taken place at the village of Cramond, near Edinburgh, where he had rendered his addresses acceptable to a pretty girl of the lower rank.

Scott, in his notes to the "Lady of the Lake," relates the following: An adventure which had nearly cost the monarch that he had saved his monarch's life, and that he was to be gratified with a crown charter of the lands of Brachead, under the service of presenting a sewer, basin and towel for the king to wash his hands, when he should happen to pass the bridge of Cramond. The Howlesons of Brachead, whose representatives still possess the property, hold it upon the tenure represented, and this service was performed by W.
