In 1683 Alexander Ogstoun and George Mosman were employed in binding books for the newly formed library of the Faculty of Advocates. In the accounts for the 14th of February appears the entry 'By money peyed to Alexr Oigstoun bookbinder for binding ane parcell of the ffaculties books as per accompt order and receipt 0200.16.0 By money peyed to George Mosman bookbinder for ditto George Mosman 0219.02.00' Faculty Records 40 folio A3. The National Library still has three volumes of Gesner's Historia Animalium 1551-5, given to the Advocates Library by the two grateful bookbinders. They are inscribed 'Hunc Librum cum duobus fratribus Alexr Oigstoun, et Georgius Mosman ffacultatis juridicae Bibliopeg: peritissimi Bibliothecae faculatis predict' dono dederunt'. Unfortunately the volumes have been rebound. In 1690 he acquired the printing house of the Society of Stationers in which he had been a partner, and in November of the same year he was made Printer to the Church of Scotland in spite of the opposition of Mrs Anderson. A child of his was buried in Greyfriars Churchyard 7 May 1691. In 1694 he became a committee member of the Scots White Writing Paper Company. Captain George Mosman stationer in Edinburgh was made a Burgess of the Canongate 22 September 1704 for most generous deeds done by him to the Burgh. Died 1707. Survived by his widow who printed Acts of the General Assembly until 1711. Anne daughter of the late George Mossman bookseller married William Hardie merchant 10 February 1723. Apprentices: Alexander Gordon 7 October 1684 [reindented 20 August 1690], Burgess 5 September 1694; William Somervell 11 August 1686 [deleted by order of the Dean of Guild]; James Barclay 10 December 1690; Ninian Home 19 August 1696; Alexander Osborne 25 September 1702.
