43. t ^id, p. 40. REHEARSAL OF EVENTS. 39 Mr. John Alexander was probably that "Doctor Alex- ander " whose " friend " is said to have composed the " Re- hearsal." The designation of "Doctor" may have been granted him by one of the colleges at Aberdeen in tribute to his professional learning. Along with others of the name at Aberdeen, he was related to the family of Alexander of Menstry, which produced the celebrated poet and statesman, Sir William Alexander, Earl of Stirling, On the 8th August,... 1672, Alexander Alexander, bailie in Aberdeen, was admitted an honorary burgess of Stirling;* of that town, the Earl of Stirling, and his sons,t were honorary burgesses, while several members of his family traded in the place. To the connexion subsisting between the author of the '^Rehearsal" and " Doctor Alexander," we doubtless owe the information, sup- plied by our chronicler, and which is not to be found else- where, that two sons of the Earl of Stirling accompanied John Gordon, Lord Aboyne, when in 1639 he sailed into the roads at Aberdeen with three ships of war to resist the upholders of the Covenant Though the Earl of Stirling was much attached to the king, and had secretly aided the intro- duction of episcopacy in the Scottish Church, he was un- desirous of openly breaking with the Presbyterians, and hence was careful to conceal that his sons were actually in arms for their discomfiture.
