  • SIR DANIEL MACNEE. by the Eev. Walter C. Smith, D.D
    24 August 1882, at the comparatively early age of sixty-four. He had been in failing health for about two years, but it was only a week before he died that he became seriously ill. His funeral took place in Warriston Cemetery on the 29th of August, and was attended by a large concourse of attached relatives and friends. Dr. Eobertson is survived by two sisters, with one of whom he resided, while the other is the wife of Mr. John Gillespie, "Writer to the Signet, and Secretary to the Eoyal Company of Archers. His youngest brother, Alexander, a promising artillery officer, was one of the many victims of the Indian Mutiny of 1857. Since the above was prepared, the writer has received a letter from one of Dr. Eobertson's medical compeers (Dr. George Bell) in reply to an application on the subject of his chess-playing, in which he says :—" Dr. Eobertson was no ordinary chess-player ; he understood the game, and practised it with judgment and skilL I know this, for the ' chequered field' was our favourite meeting-place during many years. Always pleasant there as elsewhere, Edinburgh does not know what a rare son she has lost. Though undemon- strative, the Eoyal Society had few such members as William Eobertson." SIR DANIEL MACNEE. By the Eev. Walter C. Smith, D.D. Daniel Macnee's life, like that of most hard workers, was not a very eventful one. Its chief incidents were its productions, and these were nowise startling, but rather such as might have been looked for—fruits of patient labour, and proofs of quiet growth.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE NOT FOR BROADCAST OR PUBLICATION BEFORE 00:01, FRIDAY 15 MAY 2015 NEW HI-TECH MOBILE BRANCH SERVICE TO BE PILOTED IN PERTH Bank of Scotland is piloting a new hi-tech mobile branch service in Perth where customers will be able to use an on-board tablet to service their accounts. Launching 18 May 2015, the van will follow the existing route, with some small changes to stopping times. The new mobile branch will use the satellite technology to provide a wi-fi connection, enabling customers to use the on-board tablet to access their internet banking*. For those customers not fully up to speed on digital banking or the internet, staff will be more than happy to introduce them to the online alternatives available for completing their banking. The van also has a new eye-catching white exterior instead of the traditional all-blue, and the interior has been redesigned with a welcoming, open plan arrangement which incorporates a new area for meetings. Bank of Scotland’s mobile branch service had modest beginnings in 1963 when two vans were introduced in Bathgate and Haddington. By the middle of 1964 a further four mobile banking units were in action. There was even a floating mobile banking service for a time, introduced for Kirkwall on board the m.v. Orcadia, one of the passenger and cargo boats which served the North Isles of Orkney. More mobile units were introduced in Scotland throughout the 1960s and early 1970s. Today, Bank of Scotland operates a fleet of seven vehicles covering the Lerwick, Gairloch, Portree, Oban, Brodick, Perth and Aberdeenshire areas.
