Berwickshire

But strong as was the claim of Argyll to the confidence of the exiled Scots, there was a faction among them which regarded him with no friendly feeling, and which wished to make use of his name and influence without entrusting to him any real power.

The chief of this faction was a lowland gentleman who had been implicated in the Whig plot, and had with difficulty eluded the vengeance of the court, Sir Patrick Hume of Polwarth in Berwickshire.

Great doubt has been thrown on his integrity, but without sufficient reason.

It must, however, be admitted that he injured his cause by perverseness as much as he could have done by treachery.

His mother, who her son says was, quote, a woman of singular merit, end quote, and for whom he always entertained the warmest affection, was a daughter of Sir David Falconer, president of the court session.

The paternal estate was Nine Wells, on the northern bank of the White Adder, in the parish of Chernside, in Berwickshire.

The old plain mansion, of which a picture is preserved in the Chambers Book of Days, was situated on an elevation overlooking the river as it flowed to join the Tweed, and from the declivity in front issued a number of springs which gave the place its name.

Living was plain and tastes were simple, but the Scottish gentry at the time embraced many men of exceptional intelligence and culture, and the library which David found at Nine Wells showed that his father must have belonged to that cultural class.

Some scholars, indeed, had had their eyes opened, but even highly cultured persons in the lay world read the Bhagavad Gita with enthusiastic admiration, but quite uncritically.

Much as I sympathize with Margaret Noble, Sister Nivedita, Jane Hay of St. Abb's, Berwickshire, N.B., and Rose R. Anthon, I cannot desire that their excessive love for the Gita should find followers.

I have it on the best authority that the apparent superiority of the Indian scriptures to those of the Christian world influenced Margaret Noble to become Sister Nivedita.

A great result from a comparatively small cause.
