Note 19 — SIR THOMAS URQUHART
Reading edition
Works, p. 263. The editor of the Book of Bon Accord gives a lower estimate of Dr Guild's character: he says that his works are of no literary merit, and that he got fame by his wealth and ostentatious liberality. He was minister of King-Edward before he went to Aberdeen; and his widow, Catharine Rolland, founded a bursary at the university for young men belonging to that parish.
