The Finance Director of the City of London is still called the Chamberlain, while New York City had such a chamberlain, who managed city accounts, until the early 20th century.

    Holders of the office of Lord Chamberlain of Scotland are known from about 1124. It was ranked by King Malcolm as the third great Officer of State, called Camerarius Domini Regis, and had a salary of £200 per annum allotted to him. He anciently collected the revenues of the Crown, at least before Scotland had a Treasurer, of which office there is no vestige of until the restoration of King James I when he disbursed the money necessary for the maintenance of the King's Household.

    The Great Chamberlain had jurisdiction for judging of all crimes committed within burgh, and of the crime of forestalling; and was in effect Justice-General over the burghs, and held Chamberlain-ayrs every year for that purpose; the form whereof is set down in Iter Camerarii, the Chamberlain-ayr. He was a supreme judge and his Decrees could not be questioned by any inferior judicatory. His sentences were to be put into execution by the baillies of burghs. He also settled the prices of provisions within burghs, and the fees of the workmen in the Mint.

    On My Side Of The Street

    by: Chamberlain

    I could make you want me with one hand tied behind my back. I could tear the stars down in mid-June, wrap them up for you in a paper bag. When things go wrong, I'll throw you a key. When it gets hard to breathe, come see me on my side of the street.
    I thought I saw you on Tuesday, ah well, I think I see you all the time. After all we've been through, I can't believe we're still alive. When the world locks you out, I'll throw you a key. This time you want to kill. We'll make time stand still on my side of the street.
