1814 Scottish marriage
« on: Saturday 27 February 10 21:55 GMT (UK) »
I have a few queries on the image. 
1) The date is indexed as 29 Nov 1814, and certainly the marriage above this one has that date; but what does it actually say before David Watson?
2) What are the words between "Pollokshaws" and "for three days"?
3) Their son's birth record gives his mother's name as Taggart, not Haggard.  Am I safe to assume that the marriage record is right?
Godden in East Sussex, mainly Hastings area.
Richards in Lea, Gloucestershire, then London.
Williamson in Leith, Vickers in Nottingham.
Webb in Bildeston and Colchester.
Wesbroom in Kirby le Soken.
Ellington in Harwich.
Park, Palmer, Segar and Peartree in Kersey.

The first words are "Eodem die" meaning on the same day in Latin.

"both in Pollokshaws were booked for proclm for three dyas" meaning booked for the proclamations to be read (like the English banns) for three days.

Taggart/Haggard - case of hard hearing??

Many thanks.
I did think it might be Latin, but my O Level was too long ago to remember what "same day" was  ;D
