He was al school at Dunsgre, in Lanarkshire, about nine miles from Lanark; his mother's friends came from Niebiken, in the parish of Carnwaith; he was bred a shoemaker at Linton, on the Dumfries road, about three miles from Cair Mnir; be first entered into the army in a regiment of dragoons called the Glasgow Grays (not the present Scots Grays); after this he served in the 70th regiment; that he was about twelve or thirteen years old at the battle of Sheriff Muir; was at the battle of Malplaquet; remembers Queen Anne, and has seen the Duke of Marlborough ia England; he recollects Lord Stair calling upon his father, who was a farmer, and left the estate of Cair Muir, in consequence of Lawson, of Cair Muir, throwing three farms into one for sheep." The remains of the old man were interred in Boughton Church-yard, attended by a numerous assemblage of both old and young persons; and one common sentiment of regret seemed to per vade all classes, at the last farewell of their old friend, who was universally beloved.
