Scott sat to Sir Francis Chantrey in 1820, and it is this original bust which is at Abbotsford. Only one duplicate was made (for Apsley House). Chantrey sculptured a _second_ bust in 1828 (acquired by Sir Robert Peel), having in the meantime presented Scott with the bust of 1820, which bears an inscription to that effect on the back. A large octagonal glass table in the fine bay contains the following gabions: Napoleon's blotter and gold bee-clasps. Found in his carriage after Waterloo. The blotter contains a small packet of Napoleon's hair. Napoleon's pen-case and sealing-wax. Left on the writing-table at the Palace of the Elysée Bourbon, in his flight from Paris, 1815 Presented by Lady Hampden, 1829. A tricoloured cockade. Brought from France in 1815. Soldier's Memorandum-book. Found at Waterloo. See 'Paul's Letters,' p. 199. Piece of oat-cake. Found in a dead Highlander's pocket on the field of Culloden the day of the battle. Given to Scott by Robert Chambers. Queen Mary's seal. Base engraved with a crowned shield, bearing the Scottish lion and initials 'M.R.' A piece of Queen Mary's dress. Prince Charlie's quaigh. With mirror bottom, 'that he who quaffed might keep his eye on the dirk hand of his companion.' Often used by Scott. Presented, in 1825, by Mrs. Stewart of Stenton. Lock of Prince Charlie's hair. Rob Roy's purse. Of brown leather; much worn. Presented by Joseph Train, 1818, a few days after the publication of 'Rob Roy.' Helen MacGregor's brooch. A six-pointed star, with a thistle and two leaves between. 'I confess, for my own part,' says Scott, 'that I looked long and curiously upon the brooch that belonged to Rob Roy's wife. I was thinking more of the wife than of the dauntless outlaw; of the woman who reproached her husband upon his deathbed for exhibiting some signs of contrition for his past misdeeds, exhorting him to die as he had lived, "like a man."' Flora MacDonald's pocket-book. Presented by Alexander Campbell, Leith, 1825. Flora, it would appear, had intended this as a present to the Rev. Martin Martin, a minister in the Isle of Skye, but he having died, it never reached its destination. The initials 'M. M.' have been wrought on the outside. Lock of Nelson's hair. Lock of Wellington's hair. 'As to the Duke of Wellington, my faith is constant that there is no other man living who can work out the salvation of this country. He is such a man as Europe has not seen since Julius Caesar,'--Scott to Lockhart. Robert Burns's tumbler. With some verses scratched thereon. Scott and Burns met only once, in 1786. Toadstone amulet. 'It was sovereign for protecting new-born children and their mothers from the power of the fairies,' says Scott. Joanna Baillie's purse. Netted in thick red silk by the poetess, and presented to Scott in 1812 (see Lockhart, vol. iii., p. 387). Box made of the pulley of the 'Maiden.'
