Love Letters Between Lady Susan Hay and Lord James Ramsay 1835

Thanks are due in particular to Fran Woodrow of the John Gray Centre not only for providing the editor with electronic copies of the original letters and generously supplying transcriptions she had previously made of some of them, but also for writing the introduction. IV Editing he letters have been presented in a standardised format. Headers provide Tthe name of the sender and of the recipient, and a number by which each letter can be identified. The salutations and valedictions have been reproduced as they appear in the originals, but the dates when the letters were sent have been standardised and placed immediately after the headers. Due to the time it took for letters from England to reach Scotland, Lord James Ramsay had already sent Lady Susan Hay three before she joined the correspondence. This time lapse, and the fact that thereafter they started writing to each other on a more or less daily basis, makes it impossible to arrange the letters sensibly in order of reply. They have instead been arranged chronologically, with the number of the reply (where it can be identified) added to the notes appended to each letter. -

Kingussie Shinty's Famous Five
Shinty In the Highlands of Scotland it is customary for persons to amuse themselves, in the winter season, with a game which they call ‘shinty’…In the struggles between contending players, many hard blows are given, and frequently a shin is broken, or by a rarer chance some more serious accident may occur. The writer witnessed a The Dell, home of Kingussie match, in which one of the players, having gained possession of the ball, contrived Camanachd Club and scene to run a mile with it in his hand, pursued by both his own, and the adverse party, until of many great victories. In 1893, shinty’s Camanachd he reached the appointed limit, when his victory was admitted. Many of the Highland Association was formed when the 33 farmers join with eagerness in the sport, and the laird frequently encourages by his recognised clubs playing at that time presence this amusement of his labourers and tenants. met in the Victoria Hall, Kingussie The Game of Shinty, from the Penny Magazine, 1835 and drew up the rules of the modern game. However shinty had already been played in some form around the Highlands for centuries. Kingussie Camanachd Club is arguably the most successful team in the history of the sport. They have won the Camanachd Cup on 22 occasions (including seven consecutive wins between 1997 and 2003) and were league champions on 20 consecutive The Game of Shinty – illustration in the Penny Magazine, 1835. occasions between 1986 and 2005. The 1896 Camanachd Cup victory was the beginning of a very successful spell for Kingussie. -
