Work on the “Gowrie Conspiracy” of 1600: George Sprot was executed for admitting that certain letters ‘proving’ that Sir Robert Logan had conspired with the Earl of Gowrie to murder James VI in 1600 were in fact forged. Sprot himself was presumably the forger. See also Bib# 4102838/Fr# 294 in this collection.
