Copies of Sir Thomas Dick Lauder’s letters to Sir Walter Scott, along with the originals of the latter’s replies, are bound up with the copy of the _Vestiarium_ made by Sir Thomas in 1828-9, referred to on page 45. The volume, now in possession of Miss Dick Lauder, daughter of Sir Thomas, also contains the cleverly executed water-colours by Charles Edward Stuart referred to in the above letter and the quaint illustrations by Sir Thomas Dick Lauder subsequently referred to.] [Footnote 87: This, it will be remembered, was the copy which belonged to John Ross, the old sword-player.] [Footnote 88: _i.e._, the Douay MS.] [Footnote 89: The words within brackets do not occur in Sir Thomas’s letter to Sir Walter.
