PREFACE. THE inscriptions contained in this volume were copied in intervals of leisure by Mr. John Smith, messenger, Royal Bank, with an enthusiasm and care worthy of all commendation. They have since been compared with the tombstones, brought up to date, and any accidental errors rectified. Mr. Smith is also responsible for the Index. The present volume deals only with that portion of the burying ground lying more immediately round the church, and extending up the " knowe " to the south west. The latter part is the most ancient portion of the churchyard, and has probably been a place of interment for more than a thousand years, as we know there has been a church on the present site from very early times. That part of the accompanying plan which contains the numbers referring to the different " lairs" shows exactly the area dealt with in the following pages. The oldest part is, as has been said, the " knowe" ; at the end of the sixteenth century it was in a very neglected condition, " nowt, horse and scheipe " grazed unrestrained upon it, but in 1597 the wall surrounding it was repaired. Nothing more seems to have been done till 1701, when the ground proving too small for the requirements of the parish, an addition was made by taking in some land to the west, up to the present entrance on that side. Eighty-six years afterwards a further addition was effected by which the ground to the north and east of the church, then a marsh extending to the shore of the Nor' Loch, was drained and to a certain extent filled with earth. The churchyard was further enlarged in 1814 by a narrow strip to the north being taken in, and again in 1831 and 1834 by the inclusion of a large area of ground to the south-east of the church. The inscriptions in this newest portion (only half of which appears on the plan) are not included in the present volume, but it is to be hoped that they will be copied later. Of the usefulness, from the point of view of family history and genealogy, of a work like this, there can be no doubt. Had the task been undertaken a hundred years ago or so it would have been still more important, because hundreds of inscriptions which would then have been perfectly legible must have totally

itself is being renewed and repaired owing to its decay ; this after a short existence of twenty years.

Here lie many members of the best and oldest families in Scotland; some of the ancient nobility and many more of the untitled Scottish lairds ; one of the latter, Henry Nisbet of Dean, has one of the oldest and most interesting burying places of any in a vault below the church itself (No. 376). But many better known and more brilliant names occur. Of divines there are those of two ministers of St. Cuthbert's who stand out pre-eminent amongst their compeers, Robert Pont and "Dainty Davie" Williamson ; Principal Lee, the " Archdeacon Meadows" of the Book Hunter, is interred in the " ministers' knowe," though never an incumbent of the parish; Dr. David Dickson has a noble monument to his memory on the west side of the church, a work difficult to excel in its combination of dignity and simplicity ; Dr. Macknight, famous in his day as the author of a Harmony of the Gospels, and James Alexander Haldane, who, though pro- fessionally a sailor, is chiefly known as an enthusiastic worker and preacher of evangelical religion, may also be mentioned. Of lawyers there is, as might be expected, no lack ; Lords Alva, Henderland, Murray, Handasyde and Ardmillan are all worthy representatives of the Scottish Bench, while lesser lights of the law are innumerable. In medicine, perhaps the most eminent ex- ponents who are buried here are Dr. John Abercrombie, the author of a work on the " Intellectual Powers " which went through many editions, and a physican in great practice in his day, and Andrew Combe, physiologist and phrenologist, who was a learned and successful practitioner, and who must not be confounded in connection with phrenology with his more extreme brother George. Amongst authors and scholars one transcendant name stands out conspicuous, that of De Quincey, whose modest tomb is still an object of pilgrimage to many. Susan Ferrier, the authoress of Marriage, Inheritance and other stories not yet forgotten, Mark Napier, the gallant champion of Montrose, and whose keen and witty controversial writings on historical and genealogical matters may still be read with interest and amuse- ment, James Pillans, the erudite professor whose scholastic career in Edinburgh extended from 1810 to 1863, all these, with other writers of now forgotten works, are interred in this old burying ground. Art is not largely represented ; the name of Sir Henry Raeburn occurs as the owner of a burial ground, but he is actually buried in the adjoining cemetery attached to St. John's. William B. Johnstone, R.S.A., whom some yet alive may remember

vi Preface.

as the first official keeper of the National Gallery, lies here, and he is not the only Academician. Hieronymus, or Jeremy Stabalini, a quaint Italian musician whose features are commemorated by John Kay in his Portraits, had a stone erected to his memory in 1815. Such is a slight record of some of the more distinguished names to be found in the following pages. But the inscriptions touch life, and especially Edinburgh life, on all points, and can hardly fail to be of interest to the explorers of the records of the past. The churchyard is kept in good order, but it is evident that epitaphs and tombstones are perishing year by year from causes over which the superintending body has no control. It is hoped that the representatives of those who lie in this ancient place of sepulture will see that the monuments of their ancestors are not allowed to moulder to decay. J. B. P.

An accomplished scholar and theologian, sound in doctrine, earnest in exhortation, in labours unwearied : acute in argument, expert in business, affectionate, generous, affable and accessible to all. Taking an active part in every Christian and benevolent enterprise, he possessed in a high degree the public confidence and esteem, and was beloved by each family of his flock as their councillor and comforter, their faithful and familiar friend.
