———MONTROSEthe Montrose and Arbroath railway. The site <strong>of</strong> theto\m is a peninsula jutting southwards, bounded ou theE by the sea, and on the S and W by the waters <strong>of</strong> theSouth Esk. Except for the low sand-bank along theedge <strong>of</strong> the links, the ground is almost entirely level.To the W <strong>of</strong> the town the river expands into a broadtidal loch known as the Montrose Basin and measuring2 miles by 1 j mile. At high water the whole area iscovered, but at low water by far the greater portionbecomes an unsightly expanse <strong>of</strong> mud. As the channelto the NE <strong>of</strong> the town is only from 115 to 130 yardswide, the tidal current sets up and down with greatswiftness—<strong>of</strong>ten from 6 to 8 miles an hour; but thisrush <strong>of</strong> water is beneficial, as its force clears <strong>of</strong>f depositsfrom the town, and prevents the formation <strong>of</strong> any considerablebar across the mouth <strong>of</strong> the river. In 1670,by running a dyke from near the Forthill along thebank <strong>of</strong> the South Esk towards Dun, an attempt wasmade to drain and add to that estate some 2000 acres,but the bulwark — known as the 'Drainer's dike'had hardly been completed when it was breached anddestroyed by a violent storm, traditionally said to havebeen raised by Meggie Cowie, one <strong>of</strong> the last localwitches. A small portion <strong>of</strong> the area has, within the lastfive years, been reclaimed by the Montrose and Arbroathrailway company. The basin is frequented by wildgeese, ducks, and other aquatic birds. Although complaints<strong>of</strong> damp sometimes arise, neither the flatness <strong>of</strong>the site nor the large expanse <strong>of</strong> water around seem tohave an injurious effect on the health <strong>of</strong> the inhabitants.The almost insular situation makes the climate verymild ; and the basin at high water adds materially tothe beauty <strong>of</strong> the neighbourhood.History. — The origin <strong>of</strong> the name <strong>of</strong> Montrose hasgiven rise to many conjectures Mons Eosarum, theFrench Mons-trois ('three hills '), the British ManUrrose(' the mouth <strong>of</strong> the stream '), the Gaelic Mon-ross {' thepromontory hiU '), Moin-ross ('the promontory <strong>of</strong> themoss'), and Meadh-an-ross ('the field or plain <strong>of</strong> themoss '), have all been brought forward, but the mostlikely seems to be that at the beginning <strong>of</strong> the article,which connects the name first with Old Montrose andso with Montrose, and seems also to account for thetradition (certainly unfounded), that the town at firststood at the former place. According to Boece theoriginal name <strong>of</strong> the town was Celurca, but this seemsrather to have been a contiguous place, as both Montroseand Salork are mentioned in a charter in the time <strong>of</strong>Malcolm IV., and again in the time <strong>of</strong> William theLyon. All trace <strong>of</strong> the latter is now gone, but it waspossibly higher up the basin than Montrose. Of theorigin <strong>of</strong> the town nothing is known, but it has a highanti(]uity, for as early as the 10th century, when theDanes found the estuary a convenient anchorage, therewas, according to Boece, a town here, and in 980 theinhabitants were massacred by a band <strong>of</strong> these searovers.In the 12th century, under Malcolm IV., wefind that mills and saltpans had been established, andhis successor, William the Lyon, lived in the castlefrom time to time between 1178 and 1198. In 1244 thetown was burned, and at that time it seems to have beenone <strong>of</strong> the considerable places <strong>of</strong> the kingdom. When itobtained burghal privileges is not known, but probablyin the time <strong>of</strong> David I. At any rate, burgesses <strong>of</strong>Montrose are mentioned in 1261-62, and in 1296 twelveburgesses went to Berwick, and in presence <strong>of</strong> Edward I.took the oath <strong>of</strong> allegiance on behalf <strong>of</strong> themselves andthe burgh. Edward himself was in Montrose the sameyear, from the 7th till the 12th July, when he lived atthe castle which then stood on the Forthill. Accordingto Wyntoun, Blind Harry, and Balfour, it was here thatJohn Baliol ' did render quietly the realme <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>as he that had done amis.'' This John the Ealiol, on purposHe tuk and browcht hym til Munr09,And in the castell <strong>of</strong> tliat town,That then was famous in renown,This John the Baliol dj'spoyled heOi all his robys <strong>of</strong> ryaltie.'MONTROSEBut this is a mistake, for, though the ceremony tookplace while Edward was here, the scene was at Stracathro,whither Edward went for the purpose, returningthe same day. The castle was captured by Wallace inthe following year, and seems to have been completelydestroyed, for there is no more word <strong>of</strong> it.* Wallacelanded here on his return from France :* Eaith Forth and Tay thai left and passyt byOn the north cost [gud] Guthre was thar jjy.In Munross hawyn thai brocht hj'm to the land; *and, according to Froissart, Montrose was the portwhence Lord James Douglas, at the head <strong>of</strong> a brilliantretinue, embarked in the spring <strong>of</strong> 13.30 to fulfil the lastcharge <strong>of</strong> King Robert Bruce to carry his heart to Jerusalemand deposit it in the holy sepulchre. This, however,is against the testimony <strong>of</strong> the Scottish historians,particularly Barbour, who says Douglas sailed fromBerwick. In the rolls <strong>of</strong> the parliament, held in Edinburghin 1357 to arrange the ransom <strong>of</strong> David II.,'Montrose occupies the central position among the royalburghs, eight preceding and eight following it, andwould therefore appear to have, at that period, attainedconsiderable consequence. Subsequently, inthe same year, John Clark, one <strong>of</strong> the magistrates, wasamong those who became hostages for the payment <strong>of</strong>the ransom. In 1369, David himself visited the town ;and when the truce made between France and Englandin 1379 was renewed in 1383, with the stipulation that<strong>Scotland</strong> should be included if that country wished, aband<strong>of</strong> thirty distinguished French knights, who came to <strong>Scotland</strong>in the hope <strong>of</strong> the war going on, landed at Montroseand passed S by Perth to Edinburgh. During the 15thcentury the inhabitants had a bitter feud against theErskines <strong>of</strong> Dun, seemingly on account <strong>of</strong> oppressionendured at their hands, but this was changed by thewell-known laird who figured among the Ketormers, andwho possessed great influence in the town, and establishedthere a school where the Greek language wastaught for the first time in <strong>Scotland</strong> by Pierre deMarsiliers, who had been brought by Dun from Francein 1534. In 1548 the English fleet, which was sailingalong the coast doing whatever mischief was possible,made a night attack, but the landing parties were, aftera stiff struggle, beaten back by the inhabitants withErskine at their head. Influenced, no doubt, by sucha leader, and probably also prepared for the reception <strong>of</strong>the new views by their trading intercourse with theContinent, and particularly with Holland, the peopleearly embraced the doctrines set forth by the Reformers.The spread <strong>of</strong> these must have been greatly aided by theteaching <strong>of</strong> George Wishart, who seems to have beenfirst a pupil <strong>of</strong>, and then assistant to, Marsiliers, andwho taught and circulated the Greek Testament soextensively among his pupils, that in 1538 the Bishop<strong>of</strong> Brechin summoned him to appear on a charge <strong>of</strong>heresy, and he had to flee to England. He returnedin 1543, and for a time preached and taught openlyin Montrois within a private house next unto thechm'ch except one.' Wfien lie had again to flee, thepeople, determined to have what they wished, gotanother preacher named Paul Methven, originally abaker in Dundee, who, we are told, having administeredthe sacrament ' to several <strong>of</strong> the lieges in a manner fardifferent from the Divine and laudable use <strong>of</strong> the faithfulCatholic church, was denounced rebel and put to thehorn as fugitive ' in 1559, while the inhabitants wereordered to conform to the old state <strong>of</strong> things and toattend mass. Andrew Melvil, who was born at Baldowiein the adjoining parish <strong>of</strong> Craig, was one <strong>of</strong>Marsiliers' later pupils, and his nephew James Melvil,who has in his Diary left an interesting account <strong>of</strong> his* The castle seems to have been the royal residence whenWilliam the Lyon was at Montrose, and Edward I. lived there,but there is no record as to where David II. resided. In 148S the;,'rant by James III. to David Lindsay, Earl <strong>of</strong> Crawford, <strong>of</strong> 'thel<strong>of</strong>tier title ' <strong>of</strong> Duke <strong>of</strong> Montrose, mentions no castle but onlythe Castlested,' which would seem to imply that the 'castle was aruin, or had altogether disappeared. The site was at the Forthill,near where the infirmary now stands.
'''MONTEOSEstudies, was also educated here, but the teacher then(1569) was Jlr Andrew Milne. The first minister, afterthe Reformation, was Mr Thomas Andersone, 'a man <strong>of</strong>mean gifts bot <strong>of</strong> singular guid Ij'ff ; ' and the secondwas John Durie, M'ho would seem to have been one <strong>of</strong>the stirring men <strong>of</strong> the time, for his future son-in-law,James Melvil, describes him on the occasion <strong>of</strong> theirfirst meeting, when Durie was minister <strong>of</strong> Leith, as ' forstoutness and zeall in the guid cause mikle renounedand talked <strong>of</strong>. For the gown was na sooner af, and theByble out <strong>of</strong> hand fra the kirk, when on ged the corsletand fangit was the hagbot and to the fields ! ' Beforehis death, too, in 1600, he had received in favour <strong>of</strong>himself, his wife, and his son, or the longest liver <strong>of</strong>them, a pension in consideration <strong>of</strong> ' the greit lang andernest travellis and labouris sustenit in the trew preaching<strong>of</strong> Goddis word, besydes the greit charges andexpenses, maid be him thir mony zeiris bygane inadvancing the publick affayres <strong>of</strong> the kirk—thairwithallremembriiig the greit househald and faraelie <strong>of</strong> bairnisquhairwith he is burdynit. ' His death took place justimmediately before the meeting <strong>of</strong> the General Assembly<strong>of</strong> 1600, which was held at Montrose in March in presence<strong>of</strong> the king, who was busy trying to force on hisscheme <strong>of</strong> Episcopacy. One <strong>of</strong> the great struggles wasabout the sitting <strong>of</strong> the bishops in parliament, but onthis and other points the Episcopal party were worsted,chiefly by the influence <strong>of</strong> Andrew Melvil, who ' remeanitin the town all the whyll, and furnisit argumentsto the Breithring, and mightelie strynthned and incuragittham.' When reproached by the king forcoming, he, ' eftir the auld maner dischargit his conscience,'and said, Sir, tak yow this head, and gar cut'it af, gif yie will ;yie sail sooner get it, or I betray thecause af Chryst.The great Marquis <strong>of</strong> Montrose was born at OldMontrose in JI.\ryton parish ; but some <strong>of</strong> his dealingswith the neighbouring town <strong>of</strong> Montrose were <strong>of</strong> doubtfuladvantage thereto. In 1644, while he held Aberdeenfor the king, a party <strong>of</strong> his men, headed by AlexanderIrvine, younger <strong>of</strong> Drum, 'passit all over Die, intendingonlie to go to Montroiss and to tak the tua brassin cartowislying thair, if thay war not impedit ; . . . andupone Wednisday the 24th <strong>of</strong> Aprile, be tua houris inthe morning, with sound <strong>of</strong> trumpet thay cam to thetoun, who had set on fyres upon thair stepill to walkinthe countrie, and wes in armes thame selffis, and rangthe commoun bell, bot all for nocht. Thay boldlieenterit Montross, dang the tonne's people fra the calseyto thair houssis, and out <strong>of</strong> the foirstaires thay schotdesperately, bot thay war forssit to yeild by many feirfullschotes schot aganes thame;quhair unliappelie AlexanderPeirsone, ane <strong>of</strong> thair balleis, wes slayne, sum sayesby Nathaniell Gordoun, utheris holdis by ane hielandman, whom the said baillie also slew. Thairefter, itwes said, thay intendit to schip thir cartowis in aneschip lying in Montroiss water, pertening to AlexanderBurnet, elder in Abirdene, be consent <strong>of</strong> AlexanderBurnet, his sone, who hapnit to be thair, and had promesitno less, being ane antecovenanter. Bot, by thisBurnetis knouledge, James Scot, now prouest <strong>of</strong> Montross,with certane <strong>of</strong> his neightbouris, had quietly convoyitthame selffis with thair best goodis into the saidschip. When scho began to fleit, scho drawis uar theschoir, quhair young Drum and his men war thinkingto schip tliair cartowis, according to Alexander Burnetispromeiss foirsaid, and to haue had thame about be seato Abirdene. Bot, for by thair expectatioun, this schipschot fyve or six peice <strong>of</strong> ordinans disperatlie amongisthame, with about fourtie musoattis, quhair, by thegryte providens <strong>of</strong> God, thair wes bot onlie tuo menkillit and sum hurt. Drum seeing this, thay returnitthame selffis, brak the quheillis <strong>of</strong> the cartowis, for moirthay culd not do, nor brak them thay micht not, andthrew thame over the schoir, to mak them unserviceable.Drum returnis to the tonne, and beginis to brakwpmerchand boothis, plunder, and cruellie spolzie ritchemerchandice, clothis, silkis, velvotis, and uther costliewair, silver, gold and silver wark, armes, and all uther77MONTEOSEthing, quhairat the hieland men wes not slow. Thaybrak wp a pype <strong>of</strong> Spanish wyne and drank harttullie.Thay took Patrik Lichtoun, lait prouest, and AndrowGray, prissoneris. Thay left Montroiss in w<strong>of</strong>ul cace,about tuo efternone. . . . Thair wes takin 32hieland men—sum sayis 52—who had unwy.slie biddinbehind the rest, plundering the Montross goodis, and istakin, schaklit, and sent to Edinbrugh to pay for thairfaultis. It is heir to be nottit that, notwithstanding <strong>of</strong>tlic many schotis schot within the toune and out <strong>of</strong> thescliip, yit it pleissit God that few wes killit to Drumissyde, except tua or thrie persones, mervallous to sie !and als few to the other syde, except Alexander Peirsone,bailie, who wes schot be Nathaniell Gordoun.Thair intentioun wes to haue schippit thir cartowiswithin the foirsaid schip, to have brocht about whenscho cam with hir ladning to Abirdene ; bot thay gatane cruell assault, as ye have befoir, and wes michtelliedisapoyntit. The Tutor <strong>of</strong> Struan, with sum hieland men,did brave service with thair schort gunis. It is said thatDrum causit raiss fyre tua severall tymes in Montross,yit Major Gordoun still quenshit and pat out the samen.'Again, in 1645, while the marquis and Bailie were keepingone another, so to speak, in sight, the royalist cavalrywere ordered to Montrose, ' with charge to tak thair intertynnement,bot no moir. Thay took the same, and wyneaneuche, but did no moir harme to the toun.James Melvil mentions ' a pest quhilk the Lord, forsinne and contempt <strong>of</strong> his Gospell, sent upon Montrosin 1566 ; and from May 1648 till February 1649 theplague again desolated the town, driving crowds to thecountry in panic, and making such fearful havoc amongthose who remained, that a large tumulus is pointed outon the links, immediately NE <strong>of</strong> the town, as the placewhere many victims to it were interred. In spite <strong>of</strong> allthese misfortunes, the place continued to prosper ; theenumeration <strong>of</strong> the articles in the merchants' boothsplundered by Montrose's men, and mentioned above,would indicate a considerable trade ; and a long, contemporar}'account <strong>of</strong> it, in the 17th century, describes itas ' a very handsome well-built toune, <strong>of</strong> considerabletrade in all places abroad ;good houses, all <strong>of</strong> stone,excellent large streets, a good tolbuith and church, goodshipping <strong>of</strong> their own, a good shore at the toune, a mylewithin the river South Esk. . . . It is a very cheapplace <strong>of</strong> all things necessary except house-rent, which isdear, by reason <strong>of</strong> the great distance they are fromstones, and makes their buildings very dear.' Therewere then on the outslvirts malthouses and 'kilns andgranaries for cornes, <strong>of</strong> three storeys high, and somemore, and are increased to such a number that in ashort time it is thought they will equall if not exceedthe toune in greatness. . . . They have a goodpublic revenue, two wind-milnes, ane hospitall withsome mortifications belonging to it ; they are mightyfyne burgesses and delicate and painfull merchants.There have been men <strong>of</strong> great substance in that toune<strong>of</strong> a long time, and yet are, who have and are purchasinggood estates in the countrey. Tlie generalitie <strong>of</strong> theburgesses and merchants do very far exceed these in anyother toune in the shire.'* About this time, too, theneighbourhood was highly esteemed for its beauty, whichwas celebrated in Latin verse by John and ArthurJohnston ; while Franek, in his Northern Memoirs(165S), declares (he must surely have found the fishingin the neighbourhood very good) that it is 'a beautythat lies concealed as it were in the bosom <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>,most delicately dressed up and adorned with excellentbuildings, whose foundations are laid with polishedstone, and her ports all washed with silver streams thattrickle down from the famous Ask.'* The 'wind-milnes' must have been deemed <strong>of</strong> some importance,for in the beginning <strong>of</strong> the 18th century one <strong>of</strong> the citizensnamed John Young was sent by the magistrates to Holland to learnthe best knowTi methods <strong>of</strong> constructing and working windmills ;and after his return he was the only person to be found in <strong>Scotland</strong>who understood the management <strong>of</strong> pumps in coalworks. In anIStli century print a windmill standing to the S <strong>of</strong> the Steeple, probablyabout the site <strong>of</strong> the present Infirmary, forms a prominentfeature.53
