Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Principal Cairns
I desire specially to mention my father, the Rev. David Cairns, the last surviving member of the household at Dunglass, who has taken a constant interest in the pro gress of the book, and has supplied me with many reminiscences and suggestions. To my brother the Rev. D. S. Cairns, Ayton, I am indebted for most valuable help in regard to many points, especially that dealt with at the close of Chapter VI. And I also owe much to the suggestions of my friends the Rev. P. Wilson and the Rev. R. Glaister. For help in revising the proofs I have to thank the Rev. J. M. Connor and my brother the Rev. W. T. Cairns.
