In and around those trenches will be found the earthly remains of men Jocks and Jimmies, and Sandies and Andies clad in the uniform of almost every Scottish regiment. That assemblage of mute, glorious witnesses marks the point reached, during the first few hours of the first day's fighting, by the Scottish Division of "K ." Molliter ossa cubent.
H. and I went with the tide, a jolly cheery medley of coloured races, waddling, trotting, running, the whole crowd cut in two by the Royal Scots marching through them, their pipers playing the "Glendaruil Highlanders." Sandies and Donalds and natives of India, but all subjects of the great Raj: and all got down together to the Bundar to see the Royal embarkation.
And when I can't no one else can; Mrs. Lauder has tried, often enough, and laughed at me for a salt yin while she did it. But often and often I've found a treasure that I'd forgotten a' aboot in the old book. I mind once I saw this entry "Think about a song called the 'Last of the Sandies'."
MUZZLE Long, tapering, sharp and muscular, as little stop as possible between the eyes, so as to form nearly a line from the nose-end along the joint of skull to the occiput. The lips close fitting and without flew. EYES Should be small and well sunk in the head. The blues should have a dark eye, the blues and tans ditto, with amber shades; livers and sandies, a light brown eye.
NOSE Large, well angled; blues and blues and tans should have black noses, livers and sandies flesh-coloured. TEETH Level or pincher-jawed. EARS Moderately large, well formed, flat to the cheek, thinly covered and tipped with fine silky hair. They should be filbert shaped. LEGS Of moderate length, not wide apart, straight and square set, and with good-sized feet, which are rather long.
And be remembering that the Hurst Castle is a Clyde-built boat, with every plate and rivet in her as good as a Scotsman knows how to make it and in such matters it's the Sandies who know more than any other men alive.
