The summer when the preceding notes were made, I happened to be in Kelso, and took ride one day to visit the worthy minister of a neighbouring parish, in which the celebrated border keep Smailholme tower is situated, the scene of the fearful legend embodied in the poem "The Eve of St. John."

Kelso looked up with a smile: "My boy, it was Leonardo da Vinci who said that a man could have neither a greater nor a less dominion than that over himself." "What a cruel-looking villain he is!" Bim exclaimed, with a smile. "I wouldn't dare say what I think of him." "If you keep picking on me I'll cut loose and express my opinion of you," he retorted.

"I hope that isn't true," Abe answered. Soon Mrs. Kelso called Bim to set the table. She and Harry brought it out under the tree, where, in the cool shade, they had a merry dinner. When the dishes were put away Percy Brimstead arrived with his sister Annabel in their buggy. Bim went out to meet them and came into the dooryard with her arm around Annabel's waist.

Here he remained until he received an order across the Frith from the earl of Mar to join lord Kenmuir and the English at Kelso, for which place he immediately began his march, and reached it on the twenty-second day of October, though a good number of his men had deserted on the route.

For, while Owen had been thinking, Blair had continued to talk of Watt Kelso, of his deeds and his personality. And Owen saw that for the first time since joining the outfit, Kelso seemed interested in the talk around him.

"For three days I have felt that He was leading me." "I begin to think that He has been leading me," Samson declared. "Bim Kelso is the person I seek." "I would have gone but my wife took on so I couldn't get away," said Cawkins.

He gave Crown-lands in the southern lowlands to the religious orders with their priories and abbeys; for example, Holyrood, Melrose, Jedburgh, Kelso, and Dryburgh centres of learning and art and of skilled agriculture.

"Course you don't know; I cal'late Randerson would never make a peep about it. He's all man that feller. But it's a fact. Blair told me. There'd been bad blood between Randerson an' Kelso, an' Masten took advantage of it. He paid Kelso five hundred dollars in cold cash to kill Randerson!" "Oh, it can't be!" moaned the girl, covering her face with her hands and shrinking into her chair.
