• Occupations:
• His father had some success in the setting up of a bond of friendship with the families of Cunninghames, Campbells, Montgomeries, Boyds, and Wallaces, which was in effect a form of arbitration to avoid and/or adjudicate on disputes between the families. James, however, did not support the work of his father. The Cunninghame-Montgomerie feud was renewed in the form of local skirmishes and the bloody battle was in full flood with the murder of Hugh, 4th Earl of Eglinton at Stewarton. Although denying all knowledge of the affair, James never quite shook off suspicion until he took legal action to counter the charges which were laid against him and others. These charges reached the Scottish Parliament, and while litigation dragged on, many of the Cunninghames and Montgomeries were killed or fled the country. In the end James was exonerated and agreed to friendly negotiations with the Montgomeries. It was James who commissioned the erection of a sculptured mural in that part of the Parish Church known as the Glencairn Aisle..
