From the English Wikipedia page on Lord High Treasurer of Scotland:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treasurer_of_Scotland
The Treasurer was a senior post in the pre-Union government of Scotland, the Privy Council of Scotland.
The full title of the post was Lord High Treasurer, Comptroller, Collector-General and Treasurer of the New Augmentation, formed as it was from the amalgamation of four earlier offices. Of these, the Treasurer and Comptroller had originated in 1425 when the Chamberlain's financial functions were transferred to them.[1]
