Reading edition
Dr M‘Crie has the following note in the Memoirs of George Brysson, p. 281:—“The following extract,” from Memoirs of a Mrs Goodal, the wife of a mechanic, MS. in the Advocates’ Library, “supplies the date of the communion at East Nisbet—‘I must make mention of three communion-dayes the Lord trysted me with in Scotland. The first was at East Nisbet in the year 1678, in the spring of the year,’ &c., at the very time when the Highlanders were ravaging the west.”
