righte reckoning of Yeares and Ages of the World,' and dedicated to Alexander Seton, then President of the Court of Session, and afterwards first Earl of Dunferm- line. Pont was the first to congratulate James VI. on his accession to the English throne. He died in 1606, at the age of eighty-one. He had a son, Timothy, a distinguished mathematician and geographer, who be- came minister of Dunnet. There is now a fine open country before the traveller, with the rising ground on the right crested b...y the Dow Craig and the pine-woods of Brankston Grange — standing out from which, on its platform of green- sward, is the mansion of that designation on the estate of West Grange (John J. Dalgleish, Esq.). Pro- ceeding downhill, through a pretty bit of woodland, Bogside station, on the Stirling and Dunfermline rail- way, is passed. Enclosed within a wood at a little distance from the road, on the south side, is a tolerably complete British camp. On the opposite side to the north, at the western extremity of the pine-woods, will be seen the Hartshaw Mill, now the property of Lord Abercromby, and formerly that of the Stewarts of Rosyth, who were saddled, during the civil wars of the seven- teenth century, for their Royalist proclivities, with the burden of supplying timber from their lands of Hartshaw for the rebuilding of the houses in Dollar and Muckhart parishes which had been destroyed by Montrose's army.
