Calderwood played against Wales in the Principality. ~The Final Association Cup Tie of 1886.~ The clubs left in the final tie for possession of the Blue Ribbon of Association football glory in this season were the Queen's Park and Renton. Queen's Park led off by scoring from the foot of Mr.
But James had tamed Galloway, he was now the King’s chaplain, he did not blow the trumpet of the Lord any longer, and, I fear, was capable of anything. He had a pension, Calderwood tells us, from the lands of Scone, and knew Henderson, who, as Chamberlain, or steward, paid the money. In his exciting sermon, Galloway made a dramatic point.
Calderwood started from Edinburgh on the 3rd of June, when the roads were dry and the weather was fine, and she reached London on the evening of the 10th, which was considered a rapid journey in those days. The danger, however, from footpads and highwaymen was not greatest in remote country places, but in and about the metropolis itself.
Bruce acquitted James of the infamous plot against the Ruthvens. What, then, was the position of the Ruthvens, if the King was not the conspirator? Obviously they were guilty, whether James, at a given moment, was carried away by passion or not. Calderwood has preserved for us the objections taken by sceptics to the King’s narrative.
He was one of the handsomest men I ever knew Lady Geraldine takes after him and when he was in the diplomatic service had really a very brilliant career before him; but he missed it somehow. Had always rather a frivolous mind, I fancy, and a want of perseverance. Poor Calderwood! And so he is gone! How old could he have been? Not much over sixty, I believe. I'll look into Debrett presently."
I verily believe if Allan were forced to do it, he could play in any part of the field with a few minutes' notice. In consequence of Mr. R. M. Christie, who had played in the International, of the previous year, meeting with an accident in one of the trial matches, Mr. Calderwood did duty as left-wing forward in this match, and played very creditably.
There were a good many English people in Paris this year whom the Grangers knew, and Lady Laura had insisted upon giving Clarissa introductions to some of her dearest friends among the old French nobility people who had known Lord Calderwood in their days of exile and more than one dearest friend among the newer lights of the Napoleonic firmament.
'Yes, Colonel Mohun had immediately telegraphed to him at the address in the Fiji Islands. 'Has any answer been received? 'No! but Colonel Mohun had a curious expression in his eyes, and Mr. Calderwood electrified the court by begging to call upon Mr. Maurice Mohun. There he was in the witness-box, looking sunburnt but vigorous.
She had come to Mill Cottage intending to show some kindness to Clarissa Lovel, whose father and her own father, the Earl of Calderwood, had been firm friends in the days when the master of Arden entertained the county; and Clarissa's manner and appearance having impressed her most favourably, she was eager to do her immediate service, to have her at the Castle, and show her to the world, and get her a rich husband if possible.
He might conciliate Government and get pardoned as King’s evidence, by producing what he called genuine Logan letters, and thus proving the conspiracy, and clearing the King’s character; but this he did not do. All this appeared midsummer madness. Calderwood, it was argued, must be in error.
