As an inducement to attract settlers, the proprietors promised to grant the land outright to the tenant at the end of the fourteen years, subject only to the payment of an annual quitrenter. By offering such incentives, the proprietors created a social position, the quitrenter, that did not exist in Northeastern Scotland. Nonetheless, the creation of quitrenters would require fourteen years’ residence in the colony and thus posed no immediate threat to the proprietary plan.",
