Excerpt from Wilson's Tales of the Borders and of Scotland, Vol. 2: Historical, Traditionary, and Imaginative I am wretchedly uncertain in my dates, but it must have been some time late in the reign of Queen Anne, that a fishing yawl, after vainly labouring for hours to enter the bay of Cromarty, during a strong gale from the west, was forced, at nightfall, to relinquish the attempt, and take shelter m the Cova Green. The crew consisted of but two persons - an old fisherman and his son. Both had been throroughly drenched by the spray, and chilled by the piercing wind, which. Accompanied by thick snow showers.

Excerpt from Wilson's Tales of the Borders, and of Scotland, Vol. 2: Historical, Traditionary, and Imaginative With a Glossary Wilson's tales of the borders, And of Scotland. The wife or the Wuddy. "There was a criminal in a cart Agoing to be hanged - Reprieve to him was granted; The crowd and cart did stand, To see if he would marry a wife, Or, otherwise, choose to die! 'Oh, why should I torment my life?' The victim did reply; 'The bargain's bad in every part - But a wife's the worst! - drive on the cart.'" Honest sir John Falstaff talketh of "minions of the moon;" and, truth to tell, two or three hundred years ago, nowhere was such an order of knighthood more prevalent than upon the Borders. Not only did the Scottish and English borderers make their forays across the Tweed and the ideal line, but rival chieftains, though of the same nation, considered themselves at liberty to make inroads upon the property of each other. The laws of meum and tuum they were unable to comprehend. Theirs was the strong man's world, and with them might was right. But to proceed with our story. About the beginning of the seventeenth century, one of the boldest knights upon the Borders was William Scott, the young laird of Harder.
