It has been accepted for inclusion in Louisiana Law Review by an authorized editor of LSU Law Digital Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. THE SCOTTISH BAR: THE EVOLUTION OF THE FACULTY OF ADVOCATES IN ITS HISTORICAL SOCIAL SETTING Nan Wilson* Although the expression "advocate" is used in early Scottish statutes such as the Act of 1424, c. 45, which provided for legal aid to the indigent, the Faculty of Advocates as such dates from 1532 when the Court of Session was constituted as a College of Justice. Before this time, though friends of litigants could appear as unpaid amateurs, there had, of course, been professional lawyers, lay and ecclesiastical, variously described as "fore- speakers," procurators and prolocutors. The functions of advo- cate and solicitor had not yet been differentiated, though the notary had been for historical reasons. The law teacher was then essentially an ecclesiastic. As early as 1455, a distinctive costume (a green tabard) for pleaders was prescribed by Act of Parliament.' Between 1496 and 1501, at least a dozen pleaders can be identified as in extensive practice before the highest courts, and procurators appeared regularly in the Sheriff Courts.2 The position of notary also flourished in Scotland as on the Continent, though from 1469 the King asserted the exclusive right to appoint candidates for that branch of legal practice.

    SCOTTISH CALVINISM: A DARK, REPRESSIVE FORCE? 00NALD MACLEOD, PRINCIPAL, FREE CHURCH COLLEGE, EDINBURGH INTRODUCTION 'Scottish Calvinism has been a dark, repressive force.' The thesis is a common one; almost, indeed, an axiom. Few seem to realise, however, that the thesis cannot be true without its corollary: the Scots are a repressed people, lacking the confidence to express themselves and living in fear of their sixteenth-century Super Ego. The corollary, in turn, immediately faces a paradox. Scotland has never been frightened to criticise Calvinism. This is particularly true of our national literature. John Knox has been the object of relentless opprobrium, the Covenanters have been pilloried as epitomes of bigotry and intolerance, Thomas Boston portrayed as a moron, the Seceders as kill­ joys and Wee Frees as antinomian Thought Police. The phenomenon is unparalleled in the literature of any other part of the United Kingdom. There has been no comparable English assault on Anglicanism. Nor has there been a similar Irish critique of Catholicism. Scotland has been unique in the ferocity with which its literature has turned on its religion. The Kirk's brood may have been rebellious. They have certainly not been repressed. DETRACTORS The most influential detractor was, of course, Waiter Scott, whose heroic, well-rounded Cavaliers and Jacobites contrast vividly with his narrow, bigoted Presbyterians and Covenanters. But Scott was not the first. Robert Burns had already set the agenda. In Holy Willie 's Prayer, for example, he stereotypes and lampoons the 'typical' Calvinist elder, famed only for his polemical cant, tippling orthodoxy and blind hypocrisy. His God, Sends ane to heaven an' ten to hell A' for thy glory! And no for ony gude or ill they've done afore thee.

    The Bass Rock. OAviO J l««,oi~, AT lf<<.M fJXA\ ^^ fiSli - t —____ k« . CHAPTER I. GENERAL DESCRIPTION. HE rocky islands that dot the shores of the Forth have been picturesquely described by Sir Walter Scott in " Marmion " as " emeralds chased in gold." They have also been described as " bleak islets." Both these seemingly contradictory descriptions are true according as the sky is bright and sunny or, as so often happens in our northern climate, cloudy and1 overcast. Of these islands those known as the greater *' emeralds " are Inchkeith, Inchcolme, May Island, and the Bass. The lesser " emeralds " being Cramond, Inch- garvie, Fidra, Eyebroughty, and Craig Leith. Over nearly all these islands there clings a halo of romance and legend. With Inchkeith we associate a gallant chieftain, of the name of Keith, who in one of the« invasions of the Danes slew their leader, and received the island as a reward from a grateful King. 4 THE BASS ROCK. Inchcolme takes us back to the time of the Britons when the Druids are said to have here practised the mysteries of their religion. It was here, too, that David I., having sought refuge in a storm, was enter- tained by the hermit, and afterwards in gratitude founded a monastery, the ruins of which form at the present day a picturesque feature of the island. The May Island in early Christian times was dedi- cated to religious uses, and here a colony of monks under the saintly Adrian were massacred by the Danes. The beautifully shaped Fidra has also its historical associations, having had a monastic establishment in con- nection with the Abbey at North Berwick, and also a castle called Tarbert, which at one time belonged to the Lauders of the Bass.
