London: Simpkin and Marshall . Under the year 1861 Mr. The London and North-Western Railway Company had, in the session of 1860, twenty-five bills in Parliament, all which they gave to Mr. Hope-Scott as their leader, and he was paid fees amounting to 20,000l., although he was rarely in the committee-room during the progress of the bills. 'Larchfield Diary, p. 170.
The great Oratorian, then busy with the 'Grammar of Assent, writes to him on January 2, 1870: 'My dear Hope-Scott, A happy new year to you and all yours and to Bellasis and all his.... I am engaged, as Bellasis knows, in cutting across the Isthmus of Suez; and though I have got so far as to let the water into the canal, there is an awkward rock in mid-channel near the mouth which takes a great deal of picking and blasting, and no man-of-war will be able to pass through till I get rid of it.
Hope-Scott came to Lochshiel, it happened, during service in a small country chapel close to the present site of Dorlin House, that one of the congregation fainted, and had to be carried out. After the service was over, the late Mr. Stewart, proprietor of Glenuig, asked this man what was the cause of his illness.
To complete the history of Dorlin, so far as it is connected with Mr. The missions of Oban, and, on the other side of Scotland, St. This, however, was a speculation on which it would he needless to enlarge, even if I had the details. Hope-Scott; and, among Scottish religious houses, lastly, but not least, St. Of Mr. The Rev.
Hope-Scott never exceeded the legitimate bounds of forensic debate. All litigated questions, and especially this species of private legislation, have two sides, and it is the business of an advocate to present in the most favourable light the cause which he is retained to defend.
Hope-Scott had a perfect moral as well as legal right to spend his money in building a chapel, without either having it burned down by a mob, or himself pointed at from the bench. As a matter of fact, however, there does appear to have been a congregation as well as a chapel.
Hope-Scott's relations with his Highland tenants will he found in chap. xxvi. Hope-Scott himself will enable the reader to judge of the reasons upon which he acted: J. R. Hope-Scott, Esq., Q.C. to the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P. Dear Gladstone, As you are kind enough to care for my political ideas, I will try to describe them.

Hope-Scott for Father Newman Spirit in which he laboured. On taking the step of which I have just related the history, Mr. Hope had not to encounter the usual array of external ills that assail the convert's life. Although he was now a Catholic, his eloquence had lost none of its magic, and railway directors were not very likely to indulge their bigotry at the expense of their dividends.
Hope-Scott and Lady Victoria Howard was solemnised at Arundel on January 7, 1861, and this too, it is needless to add, proved a very happy union, though on the side of affliction, in the loss of two infants, and in Lady Victoria's early death, it strangely resembled the first marriage. He was placed beside his sister Catherine in the castle vault at Arundel. Mr.
