Adam Otterburn
Adam Otterburn of Auldhame and Reidhall (died 6 July 1548) was a Scottish lawyer and diplomat. He was king's advocate to James V of Scotland and secretary to Mary of Guise and Regent Arran.
==Servant to James V==
Adam Otterburn was an important servant of the Scottish monarchy in law and diplomacy. He drew up charges of treason against the Douglases and their associates on 13 July 1529. Adam was one of the Scottish commissioners who met English diplomats at Berwick-upon-Tweed on 8 November 1529. This meeting discussed the possible restoration of the Earl of Angus, which Henry VIII might use as leverage to decide James's choice of bride. A five-year truce was concluded and the Douglases were to go into English exile.〔Cameron, Jamie, ''James V'', Tuckwell (1998), 27, 60–64.〕 In May 1532 he was of the first 15 Senators of Justice.〔Thomas, Andrea, ''Princelie Majestie'', John Donald (2005), 14–15.〕 While in England he was knighted by James V as Sir Adam Otterburn of Redhall on 16 February 1534.〔Hay, Denys ed., ''Letters of James V'', HMSO (1954), 253.〕 Redhall, his other estate, is within Edinburgh near Longstone.
Adam signed a border peace treaty in London on 11 May 1534.〔Cameron (1998), 117.〕 After the English reformation, in 1536, Henry VIII requested a meeting with James V, and Otterburn was sent to London to discuss Henry's motives.〔Cameron (1998), 287.〕 He was in London during the arrest and conviction of Ann Boleyn.〔''Diurnal of Occurents'', (Edinburgh 1833) 20, 23〕 In April 1537 Otterburn and other courtiers joked with the English messenger Henry Ray about English Friars now refugees in Scotland.〔''State Papers Henry VIII'', vol. 5 part 4, (1836), 75〕
In June 1538 he wrote a French speech welcoming Mary of Guise to Edinburgh.〔''Extracts from the Records of the Burgh of Edinburgh'', 1528–1557, Scottish Burgh Record Society, (1871)〕 In August 1538 he was imprisoned in Dumbarton Castle and next year deprived of office and fined £1000 for communicating with the forfeited Earl of Angus.〔''State Papers Henry VIII'', vol.5 part IV cont. (1836), p.141: Findlay, John (2004)〕 After the death of James V, Otterburn received a gift of crossbows and armour.〔Harrison, John, Kirkdale Archaeology/Historic Scotland (2008), 6, 45.〕
