RUTHERGLEN LORE Story of an Eight Hundred Year - Old Royal Burgh TOLD BY W. ROSS SHEARER 1126 1926 PRINTED Under the auspices of the Ru'glonians' Society BY ALEXANDER GARDNER, PAISLEY 1922 RUTHERGLEN LORE CO •< o o . — *£733w 0 fD CO o w< to p • h-J en c O ~"J £ <<: ocn P o •—a JO t^- H !3 h-' I ^ to re I i 09 CO LONDON SIMPKIN, MARSHALL, HAMILTON, KENT & Co., LTD. PRINTED IIV ALEXANDER GARDNER, PAISLEY To The Memory of THESE TWAIN (5.H.14. :: £<#.#. 1917 FOREWORD BY Pitiacus of Mitylene we are advised to " Seize time by the forelock." In view, therefore, of the approaching- Octo-Centenary (1926) of our Royal Burgh's foundation, we venture to hope these Ruther- glen Lore gleanings will at least be found informative, and so inspire those who may trouble to peruse them with a desire to foster the Patriotism and Citizenship they bespeak, which is the surest safeguard against the violation of those rights and privileges so long and so happily enjoyed as a free and independent community. Many changes have taken place since the Rev. David Ure wrote his History of Ridherglen and East Kilbride (1793), but up to the present no attempt has been made to bring that book up to date. Why Rutherglen should lack the attentions of a common chronicler for so extended a period seems to us a standing reproach on the avowed perspicacity of her citizens ; hence, our attempt to deal with Burghal affairs can hardly be considered premature. Besides, the reader is reminded that our aim, first and vii. FOREWORD last, is neither historical nor antiquarian research, but rather an humble endeavour to piece together a few scattered fragments of local knowledge, and to express in simple and homely language the feelings that animate us in regard to the ever-changing aspect of our birth-place, of which (with the exception of one or two landmarks) only Memory's tablet and a few photographic reproductions evidence the former existence. & *fe*Mfr&m VIII. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS FOR invaluable assistance revising proofs, the author desires to tender his sincere thanks to Mr. JAMES Y. MACKIE, teacher of shorthand, and also to Mr. GEO.

" —Rutherglen Reformer, 23rd March, 1919. RUTHERGLEN LORE INTRODUCTION "East or west, name's aye best."—Proverb. |EADER, if you are a native of Rutherglen, you will be able the more surely to plumb the depth of the writer's desire as expressed in the query on the foregoing page. But there are others besides himself who have a warm corner in their hearts for the " Auld Burgh," and for his own and their sakes he pleads that someone will gather the scattered fragments of its story and weave them together, that Ruglonians at home and abroad may ponder at will on the dear glad days beyond recall. For the past ten years at least, the present writer has constantly hoped for such a consummation; he went out of his way to invite several able authorities to give the subject of Rutherglen sympathetic consideration. After that lapse of time, one writer only has deemed it worth while to break the silence with a brochure of fifty odd pages.

Mack Horton Professor Daniel C. O’Neill Professor Anne-Lise François Summer 2018 © 2018 Matthew Stanhope Mewhinney All Rights Reserved Abstract The Lyric Forms of the Literati Mind: Yosa Buson, Ema Saikō, Masaoka Shiki and Natsume Sōseki by Matthew Stanhope Mewhinney Doctor of Philosophy in Japanese Language University of California, Berkeley Professor Alan Tansman, Chair This dissertation examines the transformation of lyric thinking in Japanese literati (bunjin) culture from the eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. I examine four poet- painters associated with the Japanese literati tradition in the Edo (1603-1867) and Meiji (1867- 1912) periods: Yosa Buson (1716-83), Ema Saikō (1787-1861), Masaoka Shiki (1867-1902) and Natsume Sōseki (1867-1916). Each artist fashions a lyric subjectivity constituted by the kinds of blending found in literati painting and poetry. I argue that each artist’s thoughts and feelings emerge in the tensions generated in the process of blending forms, genres, and the ideas (aesthetic, philosophical, social, cultural, and historical) that they carry with them.

    Carnwath (Stage 1) Local Community Led Plan Carnwath Local Carnwath Community Led Plan Community 2006 Carnwath Action Plan Carnwath is one of 4 Communities which has been selected to take part in the preparation of a Community Led Plan for the future of their town/village. It is a new and exciting way for communities to become more involved in the Community Planning Process and to heighten awareness of the partners and processes involved in Community Planning. It is one of 15 pilot demonstration projects across Scotland, each of which is testing new ways of involving local people in Community Planning - a process through which local authorities and the main public sector agencies work together to establish a bottom-up approach to plan, prioritise, and deliver better public services with the involvement and assistance of local communities. This Local Community Action Plan is a result of an initiative by Communities Scotland, and is also supported by South Lanarkshire Rural Partnership Leader+. The project presents an opportunity for local residents to: become involved and contribute to the preparation of a community focused local plan better understand, participate in, and influence the Statutory Community Planning process make known their priorities for the town support Carnwath to organise and take forward some local initiatives by itself. The Plan itself is a tool through which the community of Carnwath can enter into dialogue with providers of services, and examine how improvements might be made. Moreover, it identifies a range of actions which the community itself can undertake through co-ordinated voluntary action. At the heart of this process is an understanding that - in the light of public sector finances becoming ever more tightly focused - the community which will flourish will have a clear and realistic idea of it’s future, a commitment to helping itself, and a spirit of local responsibility.
