PORTER, 7 PRINCES ST., CAVENDISH SQUARE The Annals of Scottish Natural History No. 21] 1897 [JANUARY THE LATE PROFESSOR THOMAS KING. THOMAS KING was born on the I4th April 1834, at Yardfoot, Lochwinnoch, Renfrewshire, a farm which was owned and occupied by his father. He received his early education in a small school in the village of Glenhead. He was destined to be a teacher, and in 1855, after the sale of his birthplace, and the removal of the family to Glasgow, he entered the Normal Training College of the Free Church of Scotland. The early bent of his mind revealed itself in his attendance on the class of Botany in that Institution. In 1862 he was appointed teacher of English in the Garnet Bank Academy, where, in addition to the ordinary subjects, he taught an advanced class of Botany. The work of the session, however, proved too much for his strength, which had never been robust, and he was obliged to relinquish the position.

  • Read Book Glenapp Castle : a Scottish Intrigue
    GLENAPP CASTLE : A SCOTTISH INTRIGUE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Rosenberg Tina Rosenberg | 252 pages | 12 Jan 2010 | iUniverse | 9781440197123 | English | Bloomington IN, United States Glenapp Castle : A Scottish Intrigue PDF Book Just outside the wee village of Ballantrae, Scotland, lies Glenapp Castle, an abandoned manor with a tragic and mysterious past. Spring and early Autumn are the best compromise between good weather and missing the summer crowds. Gallery Grid. For me this area did not look like the image I had in my mind of Scotland. Guests staying at the castle can enjoy a range of country sports from shooting, high pheasant and partridge shooting, deer stalking as well as salmon fishing on the River Stinchar, or trout fishing on a nearby loch. Mini House: The Enchanted Castle. Four- poster beds and fireplaces allow guests to unwind, whilst looking out onto the calming waters surrounding the Scottish Isles. Maybe I am a bit more critical because we were blown away by the Michelin starred meal we had at Glenapp 8 years ago. The panoramic sea-views across to Ailsa Craig, the Isle of Arran and, on a good day, the coast of Ireland makes waking up in these premier second-floor rooms an absolute pleasure. Beef, lamb, and pork are farmed only 17 miles from the castle. Surrounding the hotel are acres of well-manicured gardens, a small lake and woodlands. When Eva and Andrew Campbell buy the fire-ravaged castle and its thirty-acre estate on a whim with plans to create an exquisite hotel by the sea, they dismiss warnings of ghostly spirits inhabiting their new home.
