  • A Family Century in the Alpine Club
    A family century in the Alpine Club Janet Adam Smith Oanet Carleton) The family in question is my own, but the title would have fitted several others. There is a line of Slingsbys and Youngs which goes back to 1880, with Len Young and J osselin Young bringing it up to the present. There is a line of Hopkinsons and Chorleys which goes back to 1887, just a year after mine (you'll see I've cheated just a bit). These depend, as my family line does, on in-laws or collaterals. The most striking instance I have found, thanks to my team of devoted researchers, is the Pilkington line: Charles Pilkington, elected 1872, died 1918; his son Edward, elected 1911, died a few years ago; his younger brother Dennis, elected 1927, and still with us today: 3 Pilkingtons, in only 2 generations, covering 109 years of membership! Clearly there is more research to be done, and as climbing often descends in the female line, change of surname may obscure continuity. My own family record goes like this: My father, George Adam Smith, was elected to the Alpine Club in 1886; he died in 1942. By then his son-in-law, my husband Michael Roberts, was a member: from 1936 to his death in 1948. I was elected to the Ladies' Alpine Club in 1946, and as we are now merged, that counts for continuity. George Adam Smith's granddaughter, Clare Thomson, was elected to the LAC in 1953, and her husband, Jan Graaff, to the AC in the same year.

  • Innes Smith Collection
    Innes Smith Collection University of Sheffield Library. Special Collections and Archives Ref: Special Collection Title: Innes Smith Collection Scope: Books on the history of medicine, many of medical biography, dating from the 16th to the early 20th centuries Dates: 1548-1932 Extent: 330 vols. Name of creator: Robert William Innes Smith Administrative / biographical history: Robert William Innes Smith (1872-1933) was a graduate in medicine of Edinburgh University and a general practitioner for thirty three years in the Brightside district of Sheffield. His strong interest in medical history and art brought him some acclaim, and his study of English-speaking students of medicine at the University of Leyden, published in 1932, is regarded as a model of its kind. Locally in Sheffield Innes Smith was highly respected as both medical man and scholar: his pioneer work in the organisation of ambulance services and first-aid stations in the larger steel works made him many friends. On Innes Smith’s death part of his large collection of books and portraits was acquired for the University. The original library is listed in a family inventory: Catalogue of the library of R.W. Innes-Smith. There were at that time some 600 volumes, but some items were sold at auction or to booksellers. The residue of the book collection in this University Library numbers 305, ranging in date from the early 16th century to the early 20th, all bearing the somewhat macabre Innes Smith bookplate. There is a strong bias towards medical biography. For details of the Portraits see under Innes Smith Medical Portrait Collection.

  • Journal of Scottish Thought John Laird
    Journal of Scottish Thought Volume 6 John Laird: A Scots Professor General Editor: Cairns Craig This edition edited by Cairns Craig. ‘Introduction © Cairns Craig The Journal of Scottish Thought is a peer reviewed, open access journal published annually by the Research Institute of Irish and Scottish Studies at the University of Aberdeen. Correspondence should be addressed to The Journal of Scottish Thought, 19 College Bounds, University of Aberdeen, AB24 3UG. Printed and bound by CPI Group (UK) Ltd, Croydon, CR0 4YY. Published by the Research Institute of Irish and Scottish Studies University of Aberdeen 2018 ISSN 1755 9928 Introduction John Laird was Regius Professor of Moral Philosophy at the University of Aberdeen from 1922 till 1946, during which time he published fourteen individual books ranging across almost all aspects of philosophy, as can be gathered from some of their titles: The Idea of the Soul (1924), The Idea of Value (1929), Morals and Western Religion (1931), An Enquiry into Moral Notions (1935), Mind and Deity (1941). He also addressed the history of philosophy in books such as Hume’s Philosophy of Human Nature (1932) and Theism and Cosmology (1940), as well as issues of contemporary debate in Modern Problems in Philosophy (1928). Even if he was never thought of as one of the leading philosophers of his generation, his career charts many of the key developments of modern philosophy, from the ‘new realism’ that he took up from G. E. Moore and Bertrand Russell in the aftermath of World War I – his A Study in Realism appeared in 1920 – to the consequences of contemporary particle physics for our understanding of determinism and free will, as he explored in his posthumously published On Human Freedom which appeared in 1947.

  • The War Memorial of the Faculty of Advocates 1914
    THE WAR MEMORIAL OF THE FACULTY OF ADVOCATES 1914-1918 ALASTAIR K SHEPHERD WS 1 INTRODUCTION In 1914 the young – and not so young – men of Scotland joined the military in droves, and the Advocates were no exception. For many of them, part time military service had been a significant part of their leisure time; indeed the vast majority of the men in this publication had served in uniform before 1914. Some of them, like Robert Burns Begg KC, or Archibald Jones, had served in the Boer War. Others, like Jim Henderson-Hamilton, had joined a local territorial battalion, possibly for social or work reasons as much as military ones. The average age of the Advocates who were killed in the war was well over the national average, at 37. Some were positive veterans, like James Ferguson, Senior, at 60, although he did not actually die on active service. However the 56 year old James Clark was killed leading his men in a charge. At the other end of the spectrum were young men like 24 year old George Buchanan Smith. In the Nineteenth Century, many Advocates had been sons of landed gentry, and certainly many on the war memorial fit that description. However, the occupations of their fathers were, by 1914, more varied; salvage engineers, rubber manufacturers, and shipbuilders rub shoulders with coconut plantation owners and thread manufacturers. Many came from legal backgrounds; indeed eight of the twenty two had Advocates, Writers to the Signet, and Sheriffs as fathers. All were well educated, some in traditional Scottish High schools, others in Scottish or English private schools.

  • Henry Drummond FRSE
    11 Henry Drummond F.R.S.E., F.G.S. (1851-1897) J. B. Paterson Henry Drummond died in Tunbridge Wells on 1 lth March 1897 at the age of 46, after a short progressively incapacitating illness, later diagnosed as a malignant growth of the bones. The funeral was held in Stirling on 15th March. Professor George Adam Smith wrote: On that day, or upon one of the Sundays either side of it, services were held in many towns of the kingdom; also in Princeton University, at Ottowa, at Adelaide, at Singapore, and I know not where else . there was hardly a country on earth where he was not being mourned.1 Drummond was appointed lecturer in Natural Science in the Free Church College Glasgow in 1877, elected to the chair of Professor of Natural Science in 1884 and held office until March 1895, when the onset of his illness made it clear that he could no longer continue. He was remembered as a man of many talents, not only in the field of science, but also as an evangelist with the ability to speak and write in a simple direct style with vivid illustrations from daily life. Many of his comments and insights are still relevant, although the only work of his still in print is the well known address The Greatest Thing in the World.2 The centenary of his death has already been marked in Scotland by a Cen­ tenary Symposium held at New College, Edinburgh, on 14th March 1997, co­ ordinated by Eric L. Motley, an American student at the University of St Andrews.
