PREFACE.
That the want' of an " AYRSHmE Directory " lias
long been felt in Law-Courts, Banks, Public Oinces —
among Factors, Professional Gentlemen, xlgents, Inn-
keepers, Mercbants, and Dealers througbout the
County — as well as by Strangers, and Professional and
Mercantile Houses in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Liverpool,
London, and other Cities having intercourse with Ayr-
shire, has been already fully proved by the numerous
Subscribers to this Publication.
Its compilation has been attended with much more
labour and expense than those unacquainted with its
details might suppose — the Lists for the Forty- six
Parishes having been prepared, and at a later date
revised, in each Parish.
The Parishes are arranged alphabetically.
PREFACE.
The diiSculties attending a first attempt at present-
ing so very full a List of the Inhabitants of a whole
County, are pleaded in excuse of any inaccuracies
that may be discovered.
The indication of the Voters, though attempted care-
fully, had better, perhaps, in the present edition have
been omitted, as the Official Registers from which they
are taken have never since the passing of the Reform
Bill been purged of " dead," and "absent"; while at
the date when consulted, this year's Electors had not
been added.
Prefixed to the Directory are Fifty-eight pages of
County Statistics, Interest Tables, and other informa-
tion valuable for reference; and Seventy pages of
Advertisements are annexed.

and so on, increasing 2d. per oz.
There is no limit to the weight of paid letters, but unpaid,
letters must not exceed 4 oz., unless for the public departments,
and no inland letter must exceed 24 inches in length.
Stamps may be used to pay the postage on foreign, colonial,
and ship-letters, as well as on inland letters, but, in using stamps
care must be taken that a sufficient number are put on the letter
to cover the postage, as inland letters insufficiently stamped
are charged double the deficiency ; and those for abroad are
liable to be detained, where the prepayment is compulsory, or
sent forward charged with the deficiency. Letters must either
be paid wholly in stamps or in money.
Stamps should be placed on the right hand corner of the
letter, and care must be taken to see that they adhere.
Redirected Lettkrs are liable to new rates of postage,
but though the new postage should not be paid on the reposting
of the letter, it will be charged only the prepaid rate on de-
livery.
Late Letters, posted at the provincial offices, must be paid
by attaching the requisite number of postage stamps tor the
postage as well as for the late letter fee, and are in time if put
into the Late Letter Box 15 miuutes after the closing of the box,
with an additional penny stamp affixed, and with three addi-
XXV
tional stamps they are in time till 10 minutes before the despatch
of each mail.
Letters, when once posted, cannot be given back upon any
pretence whatever, but must be forwarded to the person to
whom they are addressed.
Letters containing articles of a perishable or dangerous
nature will be detained as soon as discovered.
Letters to warm climates should be wafered, not sealed, as the
wax is liable to be melted, to the injury of the other letters.
Money Orders. — An order from any one Post-office on any
other, for any sum not exceeding £2, may be obtained for 3d.,
and for a sura between that and £5, for dd. A money order
must be presented for payment before the end of the second
calendar month after that in which it was issued, otherwise a
new order will be necessary, for which a second commission
must be paid ; and if not presented before the end of the
twelfth month, the money will not be paid at all.
Registration. — Any letter can be registered on payment
of a registration fee of 6d. The postage must be prepaid in
stamps, except the letter is going abroad, when it may be pre-
paid in money or stamps, but the registration fee of 6d. is in
all cases to be paid in money. Registered letters to France are
charged double the French rate of postage, in addition to the
6 d registration fee ; and to Prussia, an additional charge of 3d
is made; letters to other foreign countries and the colonies
cannot be registered farther than the port of despatch. Regis-
tered letters must be posted half an hour before the time of the
box closing for other letters.
NEWSPAPERS.
Stamped British newspapers, after being sanctioned by the
Postmaster-General, pass free from one place to any other place
in Great Britain. But when addressed to a person residing
within the delivery of the post-town where it is posted. Id is
charged on each paper. British and colonial newspapers pass
free to and from the colonies by the mail packets — the privi-
lege includes papers to and from the East Indies by the South-
ampton packets ; and if sent by the Monthly Closed Mails,
via Prance, they are charged 3d, and must be prepaid. When
the conveyance is by private ship, the postage is Id. Foreign
newspapers received in Britain, and British newspapers sent to
foreign countries, are liable to a postage of 2d, unless there be a
reciprocity treaty with the foreign Post-office, when they pass
free. The exemption, however, is only total in the case of
Post-office conveyances. The following are the countries to
which newspapers are forwarded free ; Altona, Brazil, Bremen,
XXVI
Bolivia, Buenos Ayres, Columbia, Cuxhaven, Denmark, Equa*

cannot be reposted, after having been read, with a new address,
under penalty of full postage charged as a letter ; but if the
person to whom they are originally addressed has removed or
left the place, they can, if not read, be re-directed, and for-
warded without additional charge. All newspapers must be
without covers, or in covers open at the sides, and any mark or
writing is allowed to be put on newspapers (passing from place to
place in the United Kingdom, but not to the colonies or foreign
parts), if a penny label stamp is affixed either on the cover or
outside of the newspaper ; but no writing is permitted, other

ty of it being charged the full letter rate of postage. The
name and address of the newsvender who may forward the
paper, is however allowed to be printed upon the cover with-
out it being charged. It is recommended that the address be

newspaper. All newspapers sent out of the kingdom must be

charged double those rates. N'.B. The privilege as to the co-
lonies does not embrace the Mediterranean packet conveyance

have no enclosures or writing other than the address. In
papers passing inland, prepayment is optional. Petitions and

AYESHIRE
Ayrshire is in extent 56 miles in length, by 26 in breadth,
containing 1600 square miles, divided into 46 Parishes. The
Population in 1831 was 145,055 ; in 1841, 164,356 ; and in
1851, 189,210. The Parliamentary Constituency is about 4,300,
being the largest in Scotland. It is divided into three dis-
tricts— Bailiaries, vphose separate jurisdictions were annulled,
by statute, in 1748 — Cuninghame, north ; Kyle, in the centre ;
and Carrick, south. Renfrewshire bounds Ayrshire on the
north, from Largs to Loudoun Parishes : the Counties of
Lanark and Dumfries on the east, from Loudoun to the
southernmost point of the Parish of New Cumnock : the
Stewartry of Kirkcubright thence on the south to the S.E. point
of Colmonell : and Wigtownshire on the south to the sea. The
west side of Ayrshire, which forms a crescent, about 75 miles
long, is bounded by the Firth of Clyde. Irvine Water separates
Cuninghame from Kyle ; and the River Doon Kyle from Carrick.
Ayrshire, which among the Counties of Scotland ranks next to
Aberdeenshire in population, has acquired no small portion of its'
widely-spread fame as the land of Bruce, Wallace, and Burns.
Of late years, it has risen greatly in importance, from the rapid
increase of its manufactures and shipping, its improvements in
agriculture, and the valuable fields of iron and lead, with
which in addition to coal and lime, it abounds. The num-
ber of contested elections in Ayrshire, since 1832, has also
been a mean of bringing it from time to time under the eye of the
nation. It is made prominent every five years by the Caledonian
Hunt at Ayr ; annually by the Western Meeting at Ayr,
in September or October ; and by the Eglinton Park Meetings
at Irvine. Perhaps in this enumeration we ought not to omit
mention of the Eglinton Tournament in September, 1839, which
we can well believe attracted thousands of strangers to Ayrshire
who otherwise might never have made the pilgrimage. The
formation of the Glasgow and Ayrshire Railway has also exercis-
ed a powerful influence in giving prominence to Ayrshire ; and
now that the Glasgow, Dumfries, & Carlisle Railway is opened,
a communication from the South is established, the importance
of which is daily becoming more appreciated, while the traffic
at the Port of Ayr, and other harbours along the coast, will be
vastly increased, as they afford ready outlets for the inexhaus-
tible mineral resourses of the rich districts through which it i»
proposed that the projected line shall pass.

AYR.
Ayr, the County Town, and a Royal Burgh, obtained its Charter
from William the Lion, about the year 1206. The River Ayr
divides it from Newton and Wallacetown. Ayr proper con-
tains only about 10,000 inhabitants; but, in speaking of its Popu-
lation it is generally taken in conjunction with Newton and
Wallacetown, shewing an aggregate of about 22,000. In the
Charter of erection the name of the Town, derived evidently
from that of the River, is written Ar, with a dash through the
r — indicating the true orthography Are. The corruption of
introducing i first occurs in the records of the neighbouring
Burgh of Prestwick, where the word is written Aire. In the
old records of the burgh of Ayr, we find, for several years, Ayre,
latterly superseded by Aire. In the iSth Century the e was
dropped, and in process of time the i gave place to y, and the
present spelling Ayr is now almost universal. Partaking more
of the Professional than Commercial character — with a Seminary
long famed for the Education of youth — a fine climate — situate
in a bay, said to be second only to that of Naples — a beautiful
Sea beach — moderate rents — excellent Hotels — famous for its
Races — the returning Parliamentary Burgh of the District — a
Circuit Station of the Justiciary Court — a Synod and Presby-
tery Seat — with every grade of Society from the peer to the
peasant, within its bounds — and with the Scenery in its neigh-
bourhood, immortalized by Burns — it has for a great many
years been a favourite resort for families, and individuals having
the charge of youth; for Invalids ; for Gentlemen of the Naval
1
and Military Professions ; for natives who have amassed wealth
abroad, and for others who have been fortunate enough to be
able to retire from business at home. If Ayr had attractions
of old, these have been greatly increased of late. Indeed, we
may safely assert, that no town in Scotland, of the same extent,
has, within the last few years, undergone so much improvement
in every respect. Elegant and costly public and private Build-
ings have been erected in the Town — the Vicinity has been
studded with handsome villas — the improvement of the Harbour
has been attended with a great increase of Shipping — we have
one Carpet Manufactory, where employment is given to. about
200 of the Operative classes — the Town and neighbourhood are
well lighted with gas by two Companies — one spirited Company
has supplied the Town with water — and another has erected
Public Baths — and the Glasgow and Ayrshire Hallway has
brought us, if we may use the expression, within a couple of
hours of the Western Metropolis, while the South- Western line
has regularly opened up a communication from Ayr, by Dum-
fries, to England, of which we have only yet begun to experience
the advantage.
THE RIVER AYR AND " THE TWA BRIGS."
Arrived at the Railway Station at Ayr, the object nearest the
Traveller, is the River Ayr, about thirty miles long, the source
of which is on the border of the County, at the eastern extremity
of the parish of Muirkirk. Its course, after it leaves the hills,
is remarkable for richness and variety of scenery. It abounds
with trout, and yielded salmon plentifully, till the erection, in
1700, of a high dam-dyke at the Town's Mills obstructed their
passage up the river. About fifty yards from the Station, is
the New Bridge, and about 200 yards up the river the " Auld
Brig," which boasted it would be in existence when its more
modern neighbour was "a cairn o' stanes" : and very nearly,
had the taunt proved true ; as the New Bridge having be-
come too narrow for the convenience of the Public, the Com-
missioners obtained an Act of Parliament to widen it, which
was accordingly done in 1840. This Bridge was built in 1778,
and cost about £4000. The old bridge was built in the reign
of Alexander III (1249-1285), by Isobel Lowe and her sister,
two maiden ladies, who, tradition states, spent their fortunes on
the undertaking. In this they are said to have been actuated
by the philanthropic desire to prevent the loss of life to the
inhabitants occasionally sustained from crossing by a ford about
200 yards up the river.
town's buildings — OLD AND NEW;
Fronting the visiter, as he crosses the bridge to Ayr, is Sand-
gate Street, in the centre of which, till 1825, stood the Town's
Buildings, consisting of Council Room, Jail, and Steeple. At
the date above mentioned they were removed to allow the inhS"
bitants the use of the street, at its full width ; and at the corner
site near the Malt Cross other buildings more elegant and com-
modious were erected, with a Steeple the highest we believe in
Scotland, being about 226 feet. The buildings, which are in
the Grecian style, and of the composite order, were designed by
Mr Hamilton, architect, Edinburgh, were founded on 28tll
March, 1828, and cost about £10,000. Though the situation is
low, the spire can be seen for many miles around Ayr. The
public rooms consist of a spacious News Room, well furnished
with newspapers and periodicals, a Ball Eoom, 47| feet long by
26^ broad, and ante-rooms to each, so constructed that the whole
can be thrown into one suite of apartments. The Spire, which
is a great ornament to the town, was struck by lightning in
the winter of 1835, which dislodged two stones near its summit,
but fortunately did no farther damage. The injured spot was
repaired in the following summer. The bell in the spire, weight
22 cwt., which is remarkable for its fine tone, is heard at a
great distance.
WELLINGTON SQUARE, AND COUNTY BUILDINGS.
Wellington Square, which usually attracts the attention of
strangers, is of modern formation. The houses, in many in-
stances, are occupied by the proprietors, and where otherwise,
rents range from £40 to £70. The feu paid to the town is 3s.
per fall on the South side, and 6s. on the North. The North-
west side of the Square is formed by the County Buildings,
These are the most extensive buildings in Ayrshire ; containing
Court-house, County Hall, or Assembly Room, and commodious
chambers for officials connected with the Law Courts and Burgh.
There are in the County Hall portraits of the late Earl of
Eglinton, Lord-Lieutenant of the County, in the costume of
Colonel of the Lowland Eencibles ; of his Lordship's brother-
in-law, the late John Hamilton of Sundrura (grandfather of the
present proprietor of Sundrum), and for forty years Convener
of the County ; and of the late venerable Earl of Glasgow,
Lord-Lieutenant of Ayrshire. In the rear, enclosed by a high
wall, is the Prison, where the new system of discipline has been
very successfully introduced. The buildings were finished in
1822, and cost upwards of £30,000 ; and they are now being
enlarged by an extensive addition to the Prison.
WALLACE TOWER.
This Gothic building on High Street, seen from a considera-
ble distance, from the summit of which a fine view is obtained,
was finished in 1832. It was designed by Mr. Hamilton, and
cost about £1400. It stands on the site of an old tower, taken
down in 1830, of which the public records bear no account, but
which has always been associated with the name of Sir William
lii
Wallace. A statue of the renowned chief, cut by Thorn, the
famed sculptor of " Tam o' Shanter and Souter Johnny," occu-
pies a niche in front of the new edifice. The Scottish patriot is
represented, not in warlike attitude, but in a thoughtful mood,
as if musing on the wrongs of his country. The attitude and
outline have been censured by some critics, and praised by
others; but the workmanship has, at all hands, been held to
be exquisite. The cost of the statue was 120 guineas, and the
money was subscribed in a fortnight, chiefly through the exer-
tions of Mr Auld, Doonbrae Cottage (Thorn's chief patron). A
figure of less pretension and rather dwarfish, cut by Mr Reid
of Glasgow, was placed in a niche in the gable of the corner
house, east end of Newmarket Street, in 1810, by Henry Cowan,
Esq. Mr Cowan put up this statue to replace an old repre-
sentation of the head of Wallace in the same situation, which
had fallen into decay. This effigy was originally erected there
to commemorate the sheltering of Wallace from his enemies
under that roof.
THE FORT, ST. JOHN'S CHURCH, &C.
Passing from Wellington Square towards the river, the visiter
casts his eye upon an old Tower to his left, in a pasture-
field of 18 acres. The Tower is a venerable relict of the Burgh
or Parish Church, founded in the twelfth century, and dedicated
to St. John the Baptist. The church itself was built in the
form of a cross ; and, at the eastern end of the transept, had an
elegant and richly-ornamented Gothic window. In 1560, it fell
into the hands of the Reformed Clergy, of whom was the Rev.
John Welsh, of much respected memory, son-in-law of John
Knox, the Reformer. In 1652 Oliver Cromwell, coveting the
situation of the ground around the Church, protected on the
north-west by the river Doon, which then (as elsewhere ex-
plained) flowed close past it, and on the south-west by the sea,
which has since greatly receded — took possession of it, turning
the church into an armoury, and erecting around it a strong
fortified citadel. The ground plan is in the form of a hexagon,
but the figures are irregular. The main bastion, occupying the
north-eastern angle, close upon the harbour, and next the town,
has a commanding position, and is supposed to occupy the site
of the ancient palace and castle of Ayr, built by William the
Lion. The tower had originally two triangular gables, which
the St. John's Lodge of Freemasons in Ayr removed, substitu-
ting the present turrets. This spacious enclosure belongs to
the Marquis of Ailsa, and of late years has been advertised for
sale. Some public spirited individuals have suggested the idea
of purchasing it, and laying it out as public walks and gardens
to ornament the town, and afford a place of recreation and
amusement for the inhabitants ; and it has been thought that
. liii
the expense of its cultivation might be defrayed by the sale of
annual tickets for families, and by a small charge for admission
to Promenades, Soirees, and Musical Entertainments, in the
summer evenings.
BURGH OR PARISH CHURCH OF AYR.
Cromwell, though not very ceremonious in the acquisition of
St. John's Church and grounds, made some compensation to the
Burgh in money (£160), which aided in the erection of the
present Old Church of Ayr, on the site of the Franciscan monas-
tery, founded by the Bishop of St. Andrews ; the only trace of
which, at the present day, is in the name of a spring called the
Friars' Well, which issues from the wall of the Old Church-
yard, into the river Ayr. The galleries, and for the most part
the seats of the Old Church, are those placed in it when origin-
ally erected in 1654 ; but it has been recently repaired, heated
with water pipes, lighted with gas, and made otherwise very
comfortable. The floor is yet, however, below the level of the
graves outside.
Ayr has been a collegiate charge since the days of Queen
Mary ; and on its junction with Alloway, about the end of the
17 th century, the stipend, £32, was divided equally between
the two ministers of Ayr. The stipend of the first charge, held
by the Rev. Dr. x\uld, is 8| chalders, half meal and half here,
and one chalder for Communion Elements, with the half of the
£32 from Allowav, already mentioned, and the half of the
interest of £1,000 bequeathed to the two Ayr ministers, by John
Fergusson, Esq., of Doonholm. To this charge is also attached
a handsome manse with glebe, situate in the suburLs, on the
Dalmellington road.
NEW CHURCH.
The church of the second charge — a modern building, is
situate close to the entrance to the Fort. The Rev. Alexander
Cuthill, minister of the second charge, accepted as his assistant
and successor, the Rev. \Tilliam Shaw, formerly in Bonhill,
whose emoluments are secured by arrangement entered into
between tlie Rev. Mr Cuthill and the Patrons, the Magistrates,
and Kirk Session. The stipend of the second minister consists
partly of the old stipend of the second charge— of a sum from
the Exchequer — of an allowance from the Magistrates for extra
service — of the half of the interest of Mr Fergusson's donation
of £1,000, and of £46 13s 4d in lieu of a manse and glebe.
MONASTERIES.
Besides the Monastery already alluded to, of the Order of
St. Francis, or Grey Friars, founded by the inhabitants of Ayr,
in 1472, on the site of which the Old Church of Ayr stands, there
was, in the same vicinity, near Mill Street, a Monastery of Do-
llT
aainicans^or Black Friars, the first of that order established in
Scotland, founded by the Bishop of St. Andrews, in 1230. The
charter granted by Alexander II. was dated at Forfar, in 1242,
and confirmed by Robert Bruce at Girvan, in the 33d year of
his reign. The ruins of both these religious establishments have
BOW disappeared.
MALT CROSS.
The Malt Cross of Ayr, where all proclamations were made^
stood opposite Dr. Whiteside's property, where New-Bridge
Street meets High Street. It was removed when the New
Bridge was built in 1778. Coins of Charles II., found at ita
base, indicate its having been erected during his reign. Here
Maggie Osburne, " the Ayrshire Witch " — a young woman said
to have possessed considerable personal charms, and some pro-
perty, and who lived in that house, now No. 76, High Street,
aearly opposite the Fish Cross, suffered about the end of the 16th
century. Being eccentric, she was suspected to be in league
with Satan — chiefly in reference to having built her house in a
very expeditious manner — and was tried, condemned, and
burned at the Stake, on a mound at the west end of the Town's
Low Green. This, fortunately, was the last scene of the kind
witnessed in Scotland. In England the penal statutes against
witchcraft were not abrogated by the legislature till the middle
of the 18th century, about the year 1752 ; and it is a singular
coincidence, that the last victim in England was also a female,,
named " Osbourne ;" an aged pauper, who was killed by a mob
in Staffordshire, in 1750. Her husband narrowly escaped with
his life. Barrington estimates the number of persons put tO'
death in England on the charge of witchcraft, at 30,000 !
HARBOUR OF AYR.
The Harbour of Ayr, like all others formed at the mouths of
rivers, is not easily kept deep, from the alluvial matter brought
down during the floods, and deposited at its bar. This draw-back
has been, in great part, removed within the last few years, by
walls on either side, a breakwater thrown across the north side of
the river, and the operations of a Steam Dredge,andDivingBel],
The chief woi'ks at the Harbour are Messrs Sloan and Gemmell's
Patent Slip ;;nd Building Yard, on the north side, and Mr
Paton's Patent Saw Mills, Bone Mill, and Stone Sawing Ap-
paratus, &c., on the south. A very suitable new Light'iouse
has lately been erected, on the North side of the river, which,
from its height and the brilliancy of its gas-lights, affords a
certain guide to mariners. From the point of the South Pier,
there is a fine view of the Bay of Ayr, stretching from the
Kyles of Bute to the Heads of Ayr ; and in very clear weather
the north-east coast of Ireland may be discerned.

NEWTON AND WALLACETOWN
Are divided from the town of Ayr proper, by the river Ayr.
The latest burgh charters of Newton bear date 1595 and 1600,
but refer to older charters that have not been preserved. Tra-
dition assigns the original charter to the year 1315, as having
been then granted by King Robert the Bruce. The land was
originally divided equally amoog 48 freemen (10 or 12 acres
each), subject to periodical allotment every ele\en, and later,
every seven years ; but, in January 1829, the holdings were de-
clared by agreement to be 999 years, so as to encourage the
improvement of the land. Newton has a jurisdiction separate
from that of Ayr.
Wallacetown, though a quoad sacra parish, is in the parish
of St. Evox. It is not embraced within the jurisdiction of either
Ayr or Newton, and has no local magistrates or police. A large
proportion of the population are coal miners or weavers. Inde-
pendent of its anomalous position, its buildings have been
much improved of late, particularly fronting the river Ayr.
THE PARISH OF ST. EVOX,
Which includes Wallacetown, lies NE. of Ayr. Population—
In 1831, 5348 ; 1841, 6055 ; 1851, 7146. Increase since 1831,
1798. JExtent— The parish contains 5000 acres, and is five
miles long, and three broad. Boundaries— It is bounded on the
south by the river Ayr ; and on the east, north, and west, by
the parishes of Tarbolton, Monkton, and Newton. Character-
la 1831, the agricultural population was 1071, Wallacetown
and Content containing 4277 souls. The inhabitants of the two
latter places, and of Whitletts, belong chiefly to the poorer class
of Irish settlers, and are employed as colliers, labourers, and
weavers by Glasgow and Paisley houses. There are also a num=
Iviii
"ber of artisans, carters, publicans, and shop-keepers, with an
undue proportion of strangers frona Ireland, who keep lodging-
houses, or have means of subsistence equally precarious. Hus-
bandry is in a flourishing state, and the land is in possession of
an intelligent and industrious tenantry. There are several ex-
cellent freestone quarries in the parish. Markets, ^c. — Ayr
serves as a convenient market town, whose Fairs are common
to Newton and St. Evox parishes.

IRVINE.
f Irvine— Town distant 12 miles from Ayr, and 7 miles from Kilmarnock.!
Irvine, which is a Eoyal Burgh, lies 3 miles from Kilwinning,
which bounds it on the west ; 7 miles north-west of Kilmarnock ;
and 12 miles north of Ayr. Boundaries — On the east and south-
east it is divided from the parish of Dreghorn by the river
Annick ; on the west it is bounded by the Garnock, which di-
vides it from Kilwinning ; on the south by the river Irvine,
which separates it from Dundonald parish ; and on the north
by the parish of Stewarton. Extent — The land in the parish
of Irvine extends to 2914 acres of arable, and 3673 acres of
wood. The parish is upwards of 4 miles in length, and where
its width is greatest it is nearly two miles broad. Population —
In 1831, 5200; 1841,5214; 1851, 5665. Increase since 1831,
465. Character — Agriculture is prosecuted in the parish, and
upwards of a hundred of the population, male and female, are
engaged in the cultivation of the soil. The townspeople, in-
cluding the inhabitants of Fullarton (which is joined with Ir-
vine in the Parliamentary Burgh), are chiefly employed in
handloom weaving — the work being supplied to a great extent
by Glasgow and Paisley houses. The females are principally
occupied in hand-sewing. Many of the inhabitants of Irvine are
people who have retired from business, or from the naval and
military services. Being the capital of a rich agricultural dis-
trict, and itself the most ancient of the Western ports, it is the
seat of considerable business. The Academy has earned a well
merited celebrity as an educational institution, and the teachers
are, to a certain extent, salaried from the funds of the burgh.
This forms one of the inducements for respectable families from
a distance settling down in the locality. Markets, Sfc. — The fol-
io wing fairs are held in Irvine: — January, horses, 1st Wednes-
day; May, cattle, 1st Tuesday; July, horses and cattle, Wed-
nesday before Ayr ; August, lint and wool, 3d Monday — horses,
Wednesday after.

KILIVIARNOCK.
(Kilmarnock — distant 12 miles from Ayr.)
Kilmarnock is situated on the banks of the water of the same;
name, a short distance above its union with the river Irvine.
It is the most populous and most rapidly-increasing town in
Ayrshire. The name is derived from St. Mernock or Mar-
nock, who lived about the beginning of the fourth century,
but of whom nothing is known. It does not appear in
public documents till the fourteenth century, when it is
mentioned in connexion with the Boyds of Dean : and even then
Kilmarnock appears to have been a place of little note, the
name being applied apparently to a tract of land rather than to
a particular place. In fact, Kilmarnock was a mere hamlet in
the days of James VI., its people entirely dependent upon their
feudal superiors — the lords of the neighbouring Dean Castle.
The favourable situation of the town, and the rich resources of
the district, combined to increase its importance. In 1591,
James YL constituted Kilmarnock a free burgh of barony,
Charles IL confirming the constitution in 1672, In earlier
times the population were principally employed in manufactur-
ing " braid bonnets " and " cowls." This trade flourished till the
middle of the eighteenth century, when the weaving of carpets
became the chief business of the place. Tlie trades of the town
at this time received several accessions, and the busy village
became busier than ever. The extinction of the feudal domi-
nation of the Boyds, by whom the burgh had been kept in
subjection, and its sources of wealth contracted ; the forma-
tion of good roads ; and the Union, produced a vast and
acceptable change. The opening of the present century saw
m&ny improvements effected in Kilmarnock. Calico printing
was introduced, Handloom weaving assumed a more promi-
nent position among the local trades. Greater facilities of
conveyance did much to extend the general business of the
town. A tramway was formed to the seaport of Troon — the first
of the kind constructed in Scotland ; new buildings were erected;
the streets, formerly narrow, were widened — famed for their irre-
gularity in former days, they were made more uniform — and
otherwise ext^ended and improved. The breadth of the town
scarcely corresponds with its length ; nevertheless it has a fine
appearance, favoured by its position in a fertile basin, shel-
tered by softlj'^-ascending uplands. Kilmarnock claims to be
the commercial capital of the county, and is to Ayr what Glas-
gow is to Edinburgh — the one the seat of fashion, learning, and
law; the other the busy scene of manufactures and commer-
KILMARNOCK. 231
cial traffic. Kilmarnock and its trade have steadily increased
of late years. In 1840 it was connected by railway with
Glasgow, Paisley, and the harbours on tiie West coast.
Daring the last ten years, we have witnessed the Iron Way
intersecting the entire district — passing up, the fertile valley
of the Irvine, studded with busy villages ; prosecuting its
course to the classic braes of the Ayr and Lugar ; penetrating
the rich mineral districts around Cumnock and Muirkirk ; sup-
planting the antiquated tramway to Troon ; extending the
Glasgow and South- Western to Carlisle; and thus making
Kilmarnock one of the chief links in the chain connecting
the West Country with England. Kilmarnock is improving,
too, in he.r educational, musical, and literary institutions.
Population of Kilmarnock in 1792—6776
1831—18,093
1841—19,956
1851—21,281
This burgh, with Rutherglen, Port-Glasgow, and Dumbar-
ton, returns one member to Parliament. Kilmarnock is the
returning Burgh.

Craufurd, John Reginald Houison (c), yr. of Craufurdland
R I CC ARTO N.
[Riecartoa village— distant 11 miles from Ayr, and 1 mile from Kilmarnock.]
EicoARTON is divided from the town of Kilmarnock by the
rirer Irvine. Population— In 1831, 2499; 1841, 3226; 1851,
4582. Increase since 1831, 2083. Extent— The length of the
parish, from east to west, is about 8 miles, and its greatest
breadth about 3 miles. Boundaries — It is bounded on the north
b> the river Irvine, which separates it from Kilmarnock ; on
the south by Craigie, Mauchline, and Galston ; on the east by
Galston ; and on the west by Symington and Dundonald.
Character— In 1831, with a population of 2499, 193 males were
engaged in agriculture, and 283 in handicrafts and in retail
trade. The parish is rich in coal, and to the opening of new pits
and iron-works may be attributed the increase in the population.
The Caprington coal is in great repute for household use.
There are two villages besides Eiccarton in the parish — viz,,
Hurlford and Sornhill. The recently-established ironworks of
the Portland Company at Hurlford employ a great number of
the town population. Markets, ^c. — Kilmarnock is an excel-
lent market for the agricultural produce of the parish.

IMPROVED DRESSING CASES,
With STERLING SILVER FITTINGS, Manufactured
ON THE Premises, 28 Buchanan Street, Glasgow,
FRO^ FIVE TO FIFTY GUINEAS EACH.
THE abundant encouragement awarded to S. WOOLFIELD in
the manufacture of Silver Fitted Dressing Cases has induced
him to augment his Stock to an extent quite unsurpassed, except
in a few of the West End shops of London, (where extravagant
prices are necessarily exacted.) Established as a Maker of these
articles for nearly half a century, his reputation has not been
gained without warrant, for each successive year has exhibited
the improvement which naturally comes from enlarged experi-
ence and stability of position, and his Dressing Cases are now
as perfect specimens of their class as it is within the power of
human industry to accomplish. Their distinguishing charac-
teristic is great strength and solidity — not designed for mere
appearance, but for practical utility and lasting durability. As
travelling necessaries they are incontestibly superior to all
others, the fittings being so arranged and classified that any de-
sired article is immediately available, while they are furnished
to an extent that meets every possible exigency. An additional
recommendation is their impregnable locks, and improved mor-
ticed partitions, aff'ording protection and security from break-
age ; and all springs and intricate mechanism are carefully
avoided, being always liable to damage by change of climate, &c.
In the all important matter of price, S. Woolfield's Dressing
Cases, being economically manufactured in his own Workshops,
will naturally suggest a condition both favourable to excellence
and cheapness. For M ARRI AG E PRESENTS especially, they
are an elegant and becoming gift ; the great variety always in
Stock affording almost unlimited choice at all prices, from Five
to Fifty Guineas.
^*^ Dressing Cases, Writing Desks, and Work Boxes rtf-
paired, new lined, modernized, and made useful, at very moderate
prices.
In addition to the very superior assortment of DRESSING
CASES, WORK-BOXES, WRITING-DESKS, WORK-TA-
BLES, TEA-CHESTS, and BAGATELLE BOARDS, manu-
actured on his own Premises, S. Woolfield imports largely
from the great Continental manufactories every meritorious
production in BOHEMIAN GLASS ORNAMENTS, ITALIAN
ALABASTER, FRENCH CHINA and CLOCKS, BERLIN
IRON and BROISZES ; and his Stock of PAPIER MA CHE
and GENERAL FANCY GOODS is at all times unsurpassed
out of ths metropolis.

your Pills have removed.

induced to purchase a box of your Pills for the Head, which, I
am happy to inform you, cured me of the most miserable mel-
ancholy feelings, which I had endured for eight or nine years.
I feel now quite another man ; but, least I should have a return
of it, I would thank you to send me two boxes, that I may be
prepared should I be again attacked. You are quite at liberty
to use this humble testimony, if of any service, in any way
you think proper, as I feel grateful for the service you have

Proprietors of Horses, these Balls are particularly
recommended in all cases of swelled legs, cracked heels,
loss of appetite, and vital energy; for Coughs, Colds,
Fever, or Inflammation, they are the best Medicine
that can be exhibited. Moreover, their operation,
though effectual, is so mild that they require no alter-
ation of diet; and if given with a bran mash on
Saturday night, will not interfere with the ensuing
week's regular work.

The Constitution Balls are strongly recommended
by many highly respectable gentlemen [see Testimoni-
als), for Cows and Oxen, as a most valuable medicine
in cases of Hove or Blown, Scouring or turning out
to grass, or from bad food, Gargate, Hide Bound, Loss
of Appetite, Staring Coat, Distemper, Epidemic, or
Influenza. Bullocks fat much faster by occasionally
giving a Ball.

THESE TABLETS are as convenient and efficacious a remedy
as can be employed for the removal of coughs. During the last
fifteen years they have enjoyed a rapidly increasing sale, so that
they now possess a wide celebrity. To those who are afflicted
jvith Difficulty of Breathing, or a redundancy of phlegm, they
give speedy relief, by promoting free expectoration. For
Aged Persons, they are almost indispensable ; and no one, whose
lungs are in the least degree susceptible of cold, ought to be
vithout them. They give immediate and permanent relief in
cases of cough, and where there is no physical disorganization,
will speedily effect a cure.
AFFECTIONS OF THE THKOAT.
Many persons suffer much from irritation, caused in the
mucous membrane of the trachea and air cells of the lungs by
the inhaling of foggy, cold, or damp atmospheres. These mem-
branes are far more tender and sensitive in some persons than
in others. Hence, under certain variations from heat, cold, or
on the approach of even a slight change in the outward air, a
tickling, distressing cough, and difficult respiration are sure to
ensue ; and, if neglected, too often prove fatal, To any person
so affected, WQOLLEY'S PECTORAL CANDY, taken for a
short time, will prove of eminent service, by strengthening the
lungs to resist the effect of sudden changes, by blunting the

which produces that distressing effort familiarly called coughing.

HOAESENESS.
This unpleasant, painful, and dintressing result of catching
cold, may, at any time, be removed by taking a few tablets of
Woolley's Pectoral Candy. Hence, singers and public
epeakers will find them of singular advantage.
ASTHMA.
This distressing disease of the lungs may be greatly mitigated
in its effects by Woolley's Pectoral Candy, while in most
cases complete and permanent cures are (very often quickly)
produced. In cases of moist Asthma, this candy will at once
prevent that soreness which is the result of constant expectora-
tion ; and in dry or nervous Asthma, it promotes that degree of
expectoration by which the painful coughing may be greatly
prevented.
TO THE PUBLIC IN GENERAL.
But few persons are aware of the very great importance of
checking a cough in its first stage. That which in the beginning
would yield to a mild remedy, if neglected, soon preys upon
the lungs ; acrid humours increase, and powerful medicines tail
to relieve the cough. Here the value of the Pectoral Candy is
most apparent. By the use of a few of these convenient tablets,
a check is at once given to the progress of the disease. Th©
irritation being allayed by their soothing, sedative, and healing
influence, and free expectoration being promoted, the various
membranes speedily resume their usual tone, and those fatal
diseases, of which a slight cough is but too often the forerunner,
may be averted. No one ought to be without a remedy that is
at once convenient, agreeable, and efficacious, but at the same
time perfectly innocent. Another important principle in this
candy is, that it may be taken without any fear of disordering
the stomach ; on the contrary, it operates as a tonic, and greatly
strengthens the digestive organs.

Referring to their " Holdfast Safes" (See List No. 3, page 3,

lishing the following report, addressed to their Agents, of a
night's unsuccessful labour of robbers to obtain the valuable
contents of their Safe, in the use of a large sugar-house in Glas-
gow : —
Messrs. David Boyd & Co.
Gentlemen, — Our Milners' Safe was attempted to be broken
open last night ; but, notwithstanding the great and persever-
ing violence with which the robbers have worked at the door
and back of the Safe (both of which are beaten in and cut
through the outer plates in numerous places), the lock and bolts
remained true, and saved the contents. You may send us
another Milners' Holdfast Safe, No. 6.

In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests
which Milners' Safes have been exposed to — every descrii^tion of

burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the

bers. Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Safes in use amongst
the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses in Great Britain —
the class best able to appreciate their value — numerous cases
of severe trial in accidental Fires have occurred, from which
Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in
which they are of opinion that no other Safe than their own
would have preserved its contents unburnt.
Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Spar-
ling-street, Liverpool ; a strong and fierce Fire ; Safe most
severely burnt outside ; contents unsinged.
Fire at Messrs. J. & W. Walkers', the extensive builders,
Birkenhead : buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in
them, including the contents of large Iron Safe and Drawers,
standing beside Milners' : the contents of Milners' uninjured,
and in use now.
Fire at Messrs. Garniss & Co.'s, Park-lane ; a very strong
Fire ; again the contents of Milners' Safe the only things saved
on the premises.
Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth ; a very extensive
and destructive Fire ; a large Iron Safe, covered with brick-
work, with double Iron doors, burnt out ; Milners' entirely pre-
serving its contents.
Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow ; a great number of Safes and
Closets burnt out : no books saved throughout the buildings
excepting Messrs. S. K. & Thomas Brown's, in Milners' Safe.

MILNERS' " HOLDFAST " and FIRE-RESTSTING
SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safeguards in the
world against fire, robbery, and fraud : 20,000 of them keep
the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of Liverpool,
Manchester, Glasgow, &c., who know their superiority to any
others. Five of them have brought their contents unscathed
out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow alone this year, where-
in scores of other Safes have been burnt out. Twenty-five
offices were burnt out in Lincoln's-innin January, in one alone
of which the title-deeds of thirty large landed estates were
burnt, which would all have been preserved in Milners' Safes.

Sir, — I think it a duty I owe to yourself and the public, to
inform you of the great benefit 1 have derived from your Pec-

the last seven years, and, although I have had the very best
medical advice, could obtain no permanent relief until I fortun-
ately tried ycur Candy; and, after taking two small boxes, I
find myself free from cough. You have my permission to give
publicity to this statement.

Dear Sir, — Mrs Chiseman, of Garden Street, Brompton, has
been cured of a cough of four years' standing, ! y taking one
box of your Pectoral Candy, and is desirous of expressing her
gratitude, in order that others, similarly afflicted, may obtain
the same benefit. Please send me three dozen of the large
boxes for her brother to take out to the Mauritius with him
next week. I can also add my testimony, that, from the many
cases I have seen of its decided eificacy, I am persuaded it
stands unrivalled as a general Cough medicine.

Sir, — It gives me much pleasure to be able to certify to the
goodness of your valuable Pectoral Candy, for the great relief
it has given to my wife. Having seen your advertisement in
the " Kent Herald," I was fortunate enough to get a box of the
candy ; and, although my wife has been troubled with a cough
these four or five years, with a tightness on the chest, and, at
times, she was hardly able to breathe, strange, but true to say,
your first box relieved her ; and I, as well as my wife, return
you our thanks for your valuable medicine.

Candy. It has effected, in my case, a cure of an Asthma and
Cough, which have been a heavy trouble to me for the last
thirty years ; for it settled on my lungs when I was recovering
from the Measles when a child, and I never thought to get rid
of it, having tried every remedy that could be heard of, and
being reduced to despair. But, thanks to your wonderful
Candy, I am now restored, and give you my deepest gratitude,
I remain, Sir, yours respectfully,

cough and difBculty of breathing. In this distressing state I
was recommended to try Woolley's Pectoral Candy, the first
box of which gave me great relief, the second box completely
cured me. I have recommended them to many of ray friends
who were similarly afflicted, who have all received the greatest
relief from them.

^This Society was established in the year 1815, upon the principle of Mutual
Vontribution, and thus belongs to that class of Life Assurance Institutions
which is now almost universally admitted to be the best, and which is at all
events the most popular.
The objection usually urged against a Society founded upon this principle is
the risk attendant on its failure, from an unexpected mortality amongst the
Members, in an early period of its existence. No such objection, however, can
apply to a Society which has been in existence upwards of 35 years — having rea-
lised and accumulated a CAPIT'iL oi upwards of TWO MILLIONS, and
possessing upwards of 6000 Members.
This Society has been more than usually successful in its opei-ations, and there
are few establishments of the kind in the kingdom which surpass it in the num-
ber and extent of its transactions— the amount of Assuranc8S passed dur-
ing the last twelve years, having, on an average, exceeded Half
a Million per annum.
The benefits of the Society are open to all classes of the community. Policies
are issued for sums varying in amount from £50 to £5000.
The affairs of the Society are carefully scrutinised and examined, and its
Funds and Liabilities are valued at stated intervals of seven years ; the Profits
ascertained at these leriodical investigations are divided, and appropriated for
the benefit of the Assured — not less than one-third being set aside as a Guarantee
Fund, to maintain the stability of the Institution, and the remainder being
divided amongst the Members entitled to participate in them.
The sum set aside as a Guarantee Fund at last period of investigation— -Slab
December, 1845~was £204 807 : 7 : 2, and the sum divided amongst the Members
was £614,422 : 1 : 6. The share of the profits falling to each Member may Ire
applied by him in any of the following ways :— It may be taken as an addition
to the original sum assured ; or it may be surrendered for its present value in
cash ; or this value may be applied towards th reduction of the futur©
Premiums.

From the above Table, it will be seen that in the case of a party who joined
this Society in any year from 1815 to 1819 inclusive, dying after payment of the
Premium due in the year 1850, his representatives would receive for each £1000
insured the sum of £1990 7s. 5d., or
A Bonus of very nearly lOO per cent:
And in the same proportion whatever the amount of Assurance.
In like manner, in the case of a party insured in the year 1830, dying after
payment of the Premium due in 1850, his representatives would receive in the
ratio of £1472 8s. lid. for each £1000 insured, or
A Bonus of upwards of 4-7 per cent»
Additions to Policies may either be allowed to remain incorporated with the
original Assurance, or their value may be received in present cash, or applied
towards the reduction of the future Annual Premiums^

ASSURANCE A DUTY.
It may be felt by many, that, admitting this duty in full, their income is
nevertheless insufficient to enable them to spare even the pmall sum necessary
as an annual premium for Life Assurance. The necessities of the present are
in their case so great, that they do not see how they can afford it. We be-
lieve there can be no obstacle which is apt to appear more real than this,
where an income is at all limited ; and yet it is easy to show that no obstacle
could be more ideal. It will be readily acknowledged by everybody who has
an income at all, that there must be some who have smaller incomes. Say,
for instance, that a man has £400 per annum ; he cannot doubt that there
are some who have only £350. Now, if the.<e persons live on £350, why may
not he do so too, sparing the odd £50 as a premium for Life Assurance ? In
like manner, he who has £200 may live as men do who have only £175, antl
devote the remaining £25 to have a sum assured ujjon his life. And so on.
It may require an effort to accomplish this ; but is not tiie object worthy of
an effort 1 And can any man be held as honest, or any w^y good, who will
not make such an effort, rather than be always liable to the risk of leaving
in beggar J' the beings whom he most cherished on earih, and for whose sup-
port he alone is responsible ? — Chambers^ Infurmation fur the People.

AT A MODERATE PREMIUM.
The Assured are at the sametime specially exempt
from personal liability.
The Premiums are about a fourtli lower tlian
in tlie other Mutual Offices — so tliat tlie same Pre-
mium wliicli at age 30^ is charged in tliem for an
Assurance of £1000^ will secure a Policy, in this
Office, for £1230.
The Whole Profits are divisible among the
Assured, on a new and equitable principle, pecu-
liarly favourable to good lives.
That principle is, that the surplus should be re-
served for those Members whose Premiums, with
accumulated interest, amount to the sums in their
Policies, instead of being frittered away among
Policies of short duration, on which there is a loss,
and not a profit, to the common fund.
The share of profit may be applied in addition
to the Policies, or in diminution, or extinction, of
the future Premiums, at the option of the Assured.

The Business of this Association embraces Assurances
on Lives and Survivorships, for the whole term of life or f )r
limited periods; Annuities, Endowments, and generally every
description of risk contingent on the duration of human life.
Progress of the Business.
The Board of Directors in Scotland refer with much
gratification to the increasing prosperity of the Association, and
to the large amount of business transacted during the past year,
as affording unquestionable evidences of public favour and
confidence.
The new Assurances effected during the year 1850, consid-
erably exceeded the sum of Two Hundred Thousand Pounds^
producing in New Premiums upwards of Nine Thousand
Pounds ; the Animal Income during the same period, exclusive
of Annuity Purchase Money, amounted to Eifty-two Thou-
sand Three Hundred Pounds, the Funds Invested to upwards
of a Quarter of a Million, and the Subsisting Assurances to
One Million One Hundred and Eighty Thousand Pounds.
THE POLICIES
of the Association are effectually secured by a protecting
Capital of One Million Sterling, fully subscribed by a numer-
ous and wealthy body of Proprietors, and thus present a most
advantageous mode of Investment for Family Provision, with
entire exemption from responsibility.
THE PREMIUMS
may be paid Yearly, Half "Yearly, Quarterly, for a limited term
of Years, or in a Single Payment— at the option of the Assured.

THE PROFITS
are divided at each Investigation, according to an approved and
equitable system of division, whereby substantial justice is
secured to all the Assured, without any unfair preference being
given to the earlier Entrants, either by an indefinite postpone-
ment of the period of Investigation — by drawing back at each
Division to the date of the Original Assurance — or by any other
modification of the Tontine principle, as opposed to that of pure
Life Assurance, whereby the Interests of new Entrants are ex<-
posed to an unequal and disadvantageous competition with
those of the older Members. The Bonus Additions vest imme-
diately on declaration ; and they may be appropriated in any
of the following wavs : —
/. As a PERMANENT ADDITION to the Sum Assured
by the Policy.
II. In Reduction of the FUTURE PREMIUMS payahk
under the Policy.
III. By an Immediate CASH PAYMENT of the present
value of the Bonus,
Intending Assurers are particularly requested to observe
that they have thus placed within their own choice every possible
mode of appropriating the Bonus Additions declared upon their
Policies, in the way which they may consider most suitable to
their own views and circumstances.
THE FIRST INVESTIGATION
took place at Christmas 1846, when a Reversionary Bonus of
Two PER Cent.per Annum, vesting immediately on declaration,
was added to all Policies entitled to participate in the Division.

HALF-CREDIT PREMIUMS.
Persons who may find it inconvenient to pay the full Annual
Premium at first, may effect Assurances for the Whole Term
of Life on the Half-Credit Scale, whereby one half of the
Annual Premiums may remain unpaid for Three, Five, or Seven
years ; — the arrears being either paid up at the end of the
period, or allowed to remain as a permanent debt against the

Policy, in the option of the Assured. Such Policies receive
the full advantage of Bonus Additions on the Whole Sum Assured^
the value of whicl), when declared, may, if desired, be applied
towards extinction of the arrears of premium. They also afford
this important adv.intage, — that Assurances may thus be
effected at an earlier age, and consequently at a much lower
rate of Premium, than if postponed until the party is enabled
to pay the full amou it of the Annual Premium.

ought to be conducted ; and, amongst the numerous Life In-
surance Offices now competing for the public favour, very few,
comparatively, have attained such a period of endurance. The
Edinburgh Life Assurance Company has been successfully con-
ducted for upwards of Twenty-seven Years, being the best
guarantee that all the advantages hitherto given to the Assured,
will be continued to present and future Entrants.
By a Policy with this Company, the highest benefits that
can be obtained from adopting Life Assurance as a Family Pro-
vision, are secured to the Assured without liability.
Nine-tenths of the Whole Profits are Septennially divided
among the Assured on the Participation Scale ; a larger pro-
portion than can ever be safely divided by simple Mutual
Assurance Societies, in which at least one-third must always be
laid aside to form a guarantee.
The benefits of Insurance on the Participation Plan are ex-
hibited in the Company's Bonus Declarations in 1835, 1842, and
1849 — the total Bonus in two instances exceeding the sura
originally insured ; others in proportion. See Prospectus, to
be had gratis, on application.

SURRENDER OF BONUS FOR VALUE IN CASH.
According to this method, if the person assured does
not wish the sum in his policy increased, he may sur-
render the Bonus, and take its value in cash ; that is^
instead of the amount being' paid with the sum assured
at death, such a sum will not be given as the Directors
may consider equivalent to it in present value.
Example. -^In. the case of the policy of £1000 opened
before 15th November 1825, for instance, as quoted
above, assuming the party to have assured at the
age «of 35, and to be novv 60 last birth-day, the
sum of £463, 7s. 9d. would be given for a surren^
der of the Bonus of £873, while the policy will
continue to receive its share of profits, at future
investigations, as if the surrender had not taken
place.

Extract of a Letter from Mr. William Barton, Apothecaries' Sail, Camp-

" Gentlemen,— I may here mention that your Wafers give great satisfac^
tion ; one case in particular :— An old gentleman, who for years has been afflic-
ted with Asthma, and seldom had a quiet night's rest, had used very many
proprietary medicines, as well as medical prescriptions, but all were of no use.
Since he began to use Locock's Wafers, he feels himself quite well again. He
sleeps well at night, and is quite refreshed in the morning.
