PEEBLESPEEBLESa charter <strong>of</strong> confirmation in 1506, and, during thegreater part <strong>of</strong> his reign, was very prosperous. Thequietness that had lasted during it served only to increasethe disturbance and tumult that broke out afterhis death. The counties near the border were alwaysliable to be attacked by the English, or to be ravagedin the destructive raid <strong>of</strong> some hostile elan, and hencethe burgesses <strong>of</strong> Peebles did well to surround their townwith a wall, even though that was not <strong>of</strong> the strongest.In 1547, an expedition set out from Peebles to besiegeand recover the house <strong>of</strong> Langhup, held at that timeby the English. In December 1565, Darnley visitedPeebles. Different reasons are assigned for his sojournin it. One account says that he was sent thitlier bythe Queen ; another, that he came seeking more congenialpleasures than those afforded by the capital ; athird, that he came to it in order to have an interviewwith his father, the Earl <strong>of</strong> Lennox, unknown to theQueen. The next notice <strong>of</strong> interest with regard to thetown occurs in 1604. In that year, there was, asBirrel relates in his Diary <strong>of</strong> Events in <strong>Scotland</strong>, ane'grate fyre in Peibleis town.' This destroyed a largepart <strong>of</strong> what had been built again after 1545. In 1645,the plague, which had been causing terrible devastationelsewhere, reached Peebles, and created a panic amongthe inhabitants. One result was, that for a time, there'was no meeting <strong>of</strong> the congregation for fear <strong>of</strong> thepestilence.' While terror was thus inspired by theplague, anxiety, almost as great in extent, thoughdifferent in cause, was occasioned by the victoriousprogress <strong>of</strong> the Marquis <strong>of</strong> Montrose. After havingbeen defeated at PhUiphaugh (13 Sept. 1645), he fled toPeebles, where he sought to gain the assistance <strong>of</strong> some<strong>of</strong> the neighbouring lairds, in which attempt, however,he was far from being successful. Five years later, adivision <strong>of</strong> Cromwell's army was stationed at Peebles.It is said that the soldiers found stabling for theirhorses in the Church <strong>of</strong> St Andrew, while they wereattempting to reduce Neidpath Castle, held by LordYester. Twenty years after the former visitation,Peebles was again full <strong>of</strong> terror lest the plague shouldbreak out among them. The ravages <strong>of</strong> this— the GreatPlague—were confined to England and Ireland, and<strong>Scotland</strong> escaped unharmed.In the struggles <strong>of</strong> the Covenanters after a simplerworship and a purer faith Peebles took a conspicuouspart, and, at the battle <strong>of</strong> Bothwell Brig, many fromthe parish were present. The rebellion <strong>of</strong> 1715 had notaffected Peebles, but in 1745, it had to receive a division<strong>of</strong> the Pretender's army, which was marching intoEngland by way <strong>of</strong> M<strong>of</strong>fat. According to R. Chambers'saccount in the History <strong>of</strong> the EehMion <strong>of</strong> 1745-6, theHighlanders showed a quite unlooked-for aspect <strong>of</strong>character, behaving with moderation, such as they werenever expected to display.In his history <strong>of</strong> the burgh. Chambers gives a mostminute account <strong>of</strong> the way in which, on one pretenceor on another, the property in land belonging to Peebleswas frittered away, chiefly in the 18th century. Suchproperty consisted for the most part <strong>of</strong> extensive commonsin different parts <strong>of</strong> the parish. Of these, Caidmuir,Kings Muir, Glentress, Hamildean Hill, Eshiels,Venlaw, may be mentioned. For long it clung to tliefragments that were left—Heathpool Common, a smallpiece <strong>of</strong> Glentress and the farm <strong>of</strong> Shielgreen, but these,too, eventually had to be parted with.AVhen the ' scare,' caused by the anticipated invasion<strong>of</strong> Britain by Buonaparte, was at its height, Peeblesshowed much patriotism, and a large number <strong>of</strong> theable-bodied among the inhabitants enrolled themselvesin the volunteers and yeomanry, as well as in themilitia. Three regiments <strong>of</strong> militia occupied Peeblesin turn until 1814, when peace was concluded. Theburgh served for a time as the place <strong>of</strong> residence <strong>of</strong><strong>of</strong>ficers <strong>of</strong> different nationalities fighting under theFrench flag, who were out on parole. They madethemselves very agreeable, gave representations <strong>of</strong> stageplays,acted as surgeons, etc., and, by their manners,made a favourable impression upon the inhabitants.364In 1846 great improvements were effected upon thetownat the cost <strong>of</strong> £1000. 'The High Street wa*lowered two or three feet throughout its entire length ;drains were built, unsightly projecting buOdings andstairs were removed, and the side-ways, so cleared,were laid with pavement. ' Since that date the history<strong>of</strong> the burgh has been uneventful. At the same timethe town has gradually advanced to greater beauty thanit once possessed, and now it is almost worthy <strong>of</strong> itsnearly unique situation beside the waters <strong>of</strong> the ' silverTweed.'The following well-known Scotsmen have been connectedby birth with Peebles. The fourth Duke<strong>of</strong> Queensberry(1725-1810) was born in the building now formingpart <strong>of</strong> the Chambers Institution, but used at thattime as a town house by the Queensberry family. Hisinfluence in all things pertaining to the burgh wasimmense, and was not always employed for the good <strong>of</strong>the town. Although most extravagant in his habits,'Old Q,' as he was called, possessed at his deathpersonal property to the amount <strong>of</strong> a million pounds.Sir John Elliot (d. 1786), after a life <strong>of</strong> adventure at sea,began to practise as a doctor in London. He quicklygained great fame, whose extent is shown by his beingappointed physician to the Prince <strong>of</strong> "Wales, and by hisbeing created a baronet (1778). William Chambers (1800-1883) and Robert Chambers (1802-1871) may be takentogether, as their success in life was the result <strong>of</strong> theirunited efforts. They were born in a house in Biggiesknowe,in the Old Town, erected by their father in 1796.In company the two brothers started as publishers, andbrought out Chambers's Journal (1832), an educationalcourse embracing works in many departments <strong>of</strong> science,literature, etc. ; an encyclopedia in 10 volumes, etc.,etc. Both have also been authors. The writings <strong>of</strong>William Chambers are chiefly books <strong>of</strong> travel andpapers on various questions, which as a rule appearedin the Magazine, besides a memoir <strong>of</strong> his brother (1872 ;new ed. 1883). Those <strong>of</strong> his brother are more ambitiousand varied. They include, among others, Traditio^is<strong>of</strong> Edinburgh (1824), Popular Rhymes <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong> (1826),Dictionary <strong>of</strong> Eminent Scotchmen (1835), RomanticScottish Ballads (1859), Domestic Annals <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>(1856-61), Book <strong>of</strong> Days (1862-63), and Vestiges <strong>of</strong>Creation (anon. 1S44 ; acknowledged 1884). RobertChambers also composed songs and ballads. WilliamChambers is chiefly remembered for his gifts to Peeblesand to Edinburgh, <strong>of</strong> which city he was Lord Provost in1865. The Chambers Institution in his native townhas been already described, and his restoration <strong>of</strong> StAndrews Tower referred to. During his tenure <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficethe capital underwent many improvements, <strong>of</strong> which th&opening up <strong>of</strong> the spacious thoroughfare between theSouth Bridge and George IV. Bridge, called ChambersStreet, was not the least important. In 1879 he <strong>of</strong>feredto restore St Giles' Cathedral at his own cost if certainconditions were complied with. These were arranged,and St Giles' was reopened on 23 May 1883, just threedays after his death. John Yeitch, LL.D. (b. 1829),was educated at the Grammar School, Peebles, from,which he passed to Edinburgh University. He wasappointed Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Logic, Rhetoric, and Metaphysicsin St Andrews University (1860), and fouryears later was invited to Glasgow University to lectureon the same subjects as Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Logic, etc. DrVeitch has written and translated several philosophicalworks, and is the composer <strong>of</strong> numerous pieces <strong>of</strong>poetry, collected into two volumes called Hillside-Rhymes (1872) and The Tweed and Other Poems (1875).Henry Calderwood, LL.D. (b. 1830), received his educationat the High School, the Institution, and theUniversity <strong>of</strong> Edinburgh, to the chair <strong>of</strong> Moral Philosophyin which he was appointed in 1868. Hisprincipal works are The Philosophy <strong>of</strong> the Infinite (l&H),Handbook <strong>of</strong> Moral Philosophy (1872), and The Pielations<strong>of</strong>Mind and Brain (1879).The parish <strong>of</strong> Peebles is chiefly in Peeblesshire,only a small part <strong>of</strong> it being in Selkirkshire. It isbounded N by Eddleston, E by Innerleithen and Tra-
—PEEBLES(juair (detached), S by Yarrow (detached), Traquair,and Yarrow, SW by Manor, and W by Manor, Stobo,and Lyne. Its utmost length, from N to S, is 9 miles ;its utmost breadth, from E to W, is 5J miles ; andits area is 16,686iV acres, <strong>of</strong> which 13,513f are inPeeblesshire and 3172J in Selkirkshire, whilst 89 arewater. The Tweed divides the parish into two parts,<strong>of</strong> which the northern is the larger. Entering it on itsW side, the river winds 1 J mile east-by-southward alongthe Manor boundary, next 3g miles eastward throughthe heart <strong>of</strong> the parish, and afterwards for g mileon the boundary with Traquair. Thus if one followsits windings, the Tweed has a total course line <strong>of</strong> 55miles, though a straight line, dra^vn between the pointsat which it enters ^and leaves the parish, does notmeasure more than 4^ miles. On the N bank it receivesthe tribute <strong>of</strong> Lyne Water, Eddleston Water, andSoonhope Burn. Meldon Burn runs 2^ miles southby-westwardalong the boundary with part <strong>of</strong> Eddlestonand the whole <strong>of</strong> Lyne parish, and falls into LyneWater, which itself runs 3 furlongs south-southeastwardalong all the Stobo boundary. EddlestonWater, flowing at right angles to the Tweed, dividesthe northern part into two sections, <strong>of</strong> which the easternis the larger. It has a course <strong>of</strong> 2| miles within theparish, before it Joins the Tweed at Peebles. SoonhopeBurn, rising at an altitude <strong>of</strong> 1750 feet in the NEcorner <strong>of</strong> the parish, flows i^ miles south-south-westward,and falls into the Tweed at Kerfield, J mOe belowthe town. On the S bank the Tweed receives Manop.AVater, which flows for the last 5J furlongs on theboundary with Manor, and Glensas Burn, rising at analtitude <strong>of</strong> 2100 feet in the southern extremity <strong>of</strong> theparish, and running 6t miles north-north-eastwardfor the last IJ furlong along the Traquair boundary.Besides these, there are numerous small streams, tributaries<strong>of</strong> the above ; and both great and small afl'ord goodfishing. The vale <strong>of</strong> Tweed, in the neighbourhood <strong>of</strong>Peebles especially, expands to a considerable breadth,and contains scenery <strong>of</strong> great beauty. It has an altitudenear the river <strong>of</strong> from 550 to 495 feet.The following are the highest hills : — *DunslairHeights (1975 feet), *Cardon Law (1928), *MakenessKipps (1839), *Whiteside Edge (1763), Meldon Hill(1401), Collie Law (1380), Heathpool Common (1516),and South Hill Head (1239), in the division N <strong>of</strong> theTweed : Cademuir (1359), Preston Law (1863), *HundleshopeHeights (2249), and *Dun Rig (2433), in the partS <strong>of</strong> the Tweed, where asterisks mark those summitsthat culminate on the confines <strong>of</strong> the parish. Thesehills, generally speaking, are lowland in character,though those <strong>of</strong> the Selkirkshire portion are somewhatrugged and covered with heather.Greywacke is the predominant rock, and has been largelyemployed for building purposes. A quarry <strong>of</strong> coarselimestone, on the Edinburgh road, 2 miles from thetown, has long since been abandoned. In the bottom <strong>of</strong>the valleys the soil is clay mixed with sand ; on thelower ascents it is loam on gravel ; and on the sides<strong>of</strong> the hills it is rich earth. The parish is mainlypastoral, there being good feeding for sheep. Aboutone-sixth <strong>of</strong> the entire area is in tillage ; and nearlyone-tenth is under wood. The chief proprietors are theEarl <strong>of</strong> Wemyss and Sir Robert Hay <strong>of</strong> Haystoune,Bart., 6 others holding each an annual value <strong>of</strong> £500and upwards. Llansions, noticed separately, are Kingsmeadows,Kerfield, A''enlaw House, and Rosetta. Theparish is traversed by two railway lines, <strong>of</strong> the NorthBritish and Caledonian, and by excellent roads whichbranch out from the town <strong>of</strong> Peebles in all directions.The former line approaches the town downthe valley <strong>of</strong> Eddleston Water, and the latter downtliat <strong>of</strong> Tweed. Antiquities are described under thetown, and in the articles Gademtjib, and NeidpathCastle.Peebles is the seat <strong>of</strong> a presbytery in the synod <strong>of</strong>Lothian and Tweeddale. The living is worth £489,17s. lOd., made up <strong>of</strong> stipend £424, lis. 2d., communionelements £8, 6s. 8d., manse £35, glebe £22.81PEEBLESSHIRELandward valuation (1855) £7299, 13s., (1884) £13,817,9s. lOd., plus £2581 for the North British railway,and £1779 for the Caledonian railway.

See Biggak.Peeblesshire or Tweeddale, an inland county in theS <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>, is bounded on the N and NE by Edinburghshire,E and SE by Selkirkshire, S by Dumfriesshire,and on the SW and W by Lanarkshire. Itderives its former name from its chief town, Peebles ;thelatter from the fact that the source, and nearly half <strong>of</strong>tlie course, <strong>of</strong> the river Tweed lies within its borders.The boundary runs on the N and NE in a jagged linefrom the Pentland Hills by Carlops and Leadburn toRingside Edge ; thence S to the Moorfoot Hills, and byWindlestraw Law and Garthope Burn to the Tweed,whose course it crosses at Holylee ; thence westwardsalong the S bank <strong>of</strong> the Tweed to the Haystoun Burn,though with four bold and irregular loops runningalmost due S into Selkirkshire, and including the basins<strong>of</strong> the Bold Burn, Fingland Burn, and Quair Water ;and so S by the line <strong>of</strong> AVaddinshope Burn, GlenrathHeights, Blackhouse Heights, and Henderland to StMary's Loch, a reach <strong>of</strong> which forms a small part <strong>of</strong> theS boundary <strong>of</strong> the shire. From St Mary's the boundarynext runs along a line <strong>of</strong> heights by Loch Skene andHart Fell to Tweed's Cross, where it turns N to formthe W limit <strong>of</strong> the shire by Clyde Law, Black Dod,Culter Fell, Hartree, Skirling, Netherurd, and JledwinWater to tlie Pentland Hills, which form the NWboundary. The outline thus traced presents the appearance<strong>of</strong> an irregular triangle, facing W, SE, and NE, withrounded angles, and most broken by indentations onthe SE base line where there are projections intoSelkirkshire. The lengths <strong>of</strong> the sides are— along theW face, from N to S, 26 miles ; along the SE face, 30miles ; and along the NE, 23 miles. The extremelength <strong>of</strong> the county, from N to S, is 29 miles ; itsextreme breadth, from E to W, is 21 miles ; and itstotal area is 354 square miles or 226,899 acres (<strong>of</strong> which970 are water) ; lying between 50° 24' and 55° 50' Nlatitude, and between 2° 45' and 3° 23' AV longitude.It is the twenty-third county <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong> in point <strong>of</strong>size, and the thirtieth in population.The surface <strong>of</strong> Peeblesshire attains a higher averagelevel than that <strong>of</strong> any other <strong>of</strong> the southern Scottishcounties. The lowest ground is in the narrow vale <strong>of</strong>the Tweed, just where it enters Selkirkshire, and liesbetween 400 and 500 feet above sea-leveL The highestground in the county is on the S border, where thesummits <strong>of</strong> the Hartfell group rise. The highest peakis, however, Broad Law (2754 feet), in Tweedsmuirparish, 4 miles from the S border. At a general viewthe county seems to be an assemblage <strong>of</strong> hills, more orless high, and more or less closely grouped ; but theseare intersected in all directions by pleasant and fertilevalleys or deep gorges, each with its stream flowingthrough it. Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Veitch thus describes the viewfrom the top <strong>of</strong> Broad Law': On all sides, but particularlyto the east <strong>of</strong> us, innumerable rounded broad hilltopsrun in a series <strong>of</strong> parallel flowing ridges, chiefly fromthe south-west to the north-east, and between the ridgeswe note that there is enclosed in each a scooped-out glen,in which we know that a burn or water flows. 'Thesehill-tops follow each other in wavy outline. One rises,falls, passes s<strong>of</strong>tly into another. This again rises, falls,and passes into another beyond itself ; and thus the eyereposes on the long s<strong>of</strong>t lines <strong>of</strong> a sea <strong>of</strong> hills, whosetops move and yet do not move, for they carry ourvision along their undulating flow, themselves motionless,lying Uke an earth-ocean in the deep, quiet calm165
