RELATIVE TO THE AFFAIRS OF PRINCE CHARLES EDWARD STUART BY THE REV. ROBERT FORBES, A.M. BISHOP OF ROSS AND CAITHNESS 1746-1775 Edited from his Manuscript, with a Preface by HENRY PAT ON, M.A. PREFATORY NOTE It was originally intended to add to the third volume of the Lyon in Mourning, as a key to the work, an Itinerary and Map showing the Prince’s movements day by day from the date of his landing in Scotland to his departure in September 1746. This Itinerary, which has been prepared by Mr. W. B. Blaikie from many sources, printed and manuscript, confirming or correcting the data of the Lyon, and indicating the move- ments of the Government armies as well as of the Jacobites, has so far exceeded the length at first contemplated, that it has been thought well to issue it separately along with the Map as a supplement to volume iii. This supplementary issue will therefore be treated as belonging to volume iii., and will be due to subscribers for the year 1895-96.

Edwin Muir, Scott and Scotland Irvine Welsh’s debut novel Trainspotting (1993) became famous and fash- ionable with the Miramax Films release in 1996.

[RGE, 2009] 2 St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral, Glasgow, Heritage Project The Rev. Andrew Macdonald, 1757-90. Incumbent at Glasgow, 1777-87. In 1791 were printed at London for John Murray, No. 32, Fleet Street, The Miscellaneous Works of A. M‘Donald; including the tragedy of Vimonda, and other productions, which have appeared under the signature of Matthew Bramble, Esq. with various other compositions by the same author. This volume contains all that I have seen of the poetical labours of a departed friend. Little did I expect that one day it should fall to my lot to give some account of the life and writings of Andrew M‘Donald, but such is the uncertainty of human existence. Of the life and writings of Mr M‘Donald little hitherto has been communicated to the world; and what I have been able to procure respecting him more properly belongs to the earlier part of his life, than that in which he was known to the public - as a literary character, and which certainly more immediately relates to the subject to which these pages are devoted.
