Alexr Mccay: Shorthand for "Alexander McCay" (or McKay).
one pound 3/11: Refers to the pre-decimal currency system (pounds, shillings, and pence). This amounts to 1 pound, 3 shillings, and 11 pence (£1 3s 11d).
Wm Galt: The signature appears to be "Wm" (William) followed by the surname "Galt", finished with a decorative flourish underneath.
