  • Notes 
    • His wife [Margaret Laidlaw Hogg] must not be overlooked. She was always of interest to the people of Galt, as well as to visitors to the town, because of her relation to James Hogg, the poet of the Yarrow the famous Ettrick Shepherd who occupies no mean place in the " Noctes Ambrosianae " of Christopher North. She was James Hogg s niece, and, no doubt, did not forget that fact, but notwithstanding that she was very modest, very quiet and very contented. Composure dwelt upon her face, and peace reigned in her heart Her life was spent amid the sanctities of the home, ministering to her husband and children. Sustained by the precious Truth she had learned early in her youth, she passed the time of her sojourn here in fear. And when the end came to them it was only a few hours apart fellow-travellers in life, in death they were not divided.
