He ,died of con- Digiti ized by Google STREETS AND NEUKS O' KILLIE 213 sumption in 1788, at the age of thirty, to the great grief of Burns, who, in sending his epitaph to Mrs Dunlop, coupled Muir and Highland Mary together as the dearest of the friends he had lost. " What man could esteem or what woman could love, Was he who lies under this sod ; If such Thou refusest admission above, Then whom wilt Thou favour, Good God ? " The tower is all that is left of the old Laigh Kirk, in which the famo...us *' Ordination " was performed. One Sunday in 1801, when Dr Mackinlay was preaching, the cry was raised that the building was about to fall. A panic fright ensued. Women and children were trampled to death, and many people were maimed for life. It was one of those unaccount- able unfounded panics of which history presents so many examples; but no service was held in the old church after its occurrence. The present Low Church was built in 1802. The ministers of Kilmarnock figure so pro- minently in Burns's poems, and the positions they occupied are as a rule so obscurely indicated, that a few simple statements respecting them may be admissible.
