Siege of Perth (1339)

(

)

... that a warrant was issued to pay a force to relieve the Siege of Perth two months after the garrison had surrendered this day in 1339?

Source: "In October 1339 a warrant was issued to pay the wages of 1264 men from Cumberland and Westmorland who were going to Scotland under the command of Balliol and others to raise the siege of Perth, but Perth had in fact surrendered on 17 August"

Comment: Would be good to run on 17 August, the anniversary of the end of the siege.

After rereading this, possibly this is a better wording?
