"Why, of course, Chauncy, I wanted to show that I hadn't any ill feeling against the family of my bishop." "To meet Marion Delegass?" "Of course. I thought it would liven Mrs. Strathmore up a little. She always reminded me of water-gruel with not enough salt in it." Dr. Wilson burst into a roar of laughter, leaning back in his chair and slapping his knee. "Marion Delegass!
This band of till, with Grampian boulders and associated river-gravel, may be traced continuously for a distance of 34 miles, with a width of 3 1/2 miles, from near Dunkeld, by Coupar, to the south of Blairgowrie, then through the lowest part of Strathmore, and afterwards in a straight line through the greatest depression in the Sidlaw Hills, from Forfar to Lunan Bay.
To "Angus," who fell into my hands, I am indebted for some of the best blood in the male line. Mr Watson also bred "Strathmore," "Windsor," "Pat," and "Second Jock," which last beat all the bulls in a sweepstake at Perth in 1852, after he was thirteen years old. Mr Bowie, of Mains of Kelly, has been a most successful and energetic breeder of polled cattle.
"If I have been mistaken on this point about which I have felt so sure and so strongly, what confidence can I have in my other beliefs?" "Ah, it goes deep," Strathmore said with emphasis. "It is of no use to put old wine into new bottles. The effect of trying to make you young men accept mediaevalism, like clerical celibacy, is in the end to make you doubt everything.

It is like the sight of the Grampians from beyond Strathmore, but very much more grand.
In 1823, when he had reached the age of thirty-one years, he was applied to for professional advice by the Earl of Strathmore. This event was destined to have important consequences.
He could not, however, achieve what is impossible; and there was a pain in the heart of the young man which testified that his sense of right was sore despite all his cunning. At the meeting of the Charity Board to which Mr. Strathmore had been going, Ashe sat beside Mrs. Fenton.
"I speak to you as one who is face to face with these facts, and must have the whole of it." Maurice rose with a feeling that he must get away by himself and think. "Mr. Strathmore," he said, "I am more grateful than I can say for your kindness. I'm afraid that I've seemed stupid and ungracious, but I haven't meant to be either. I see that every man must work out his own salvation."
We quickly crossed the Park once more. Pendriver lives to the west of it, in Strathmore Gardens, and has a special permit from his landlord to dig. We did not, for sufficient reasons, converse much. Many persons were now hastening towards the strange object. I forget his name, but he was lame in the left leg: a ruddy man.
By the middle of January, however, the contest had practically narrowed itself down to a struggle between the supporters of the Father and those of the Rev. Rutherford Strathmore. Other names had been suggested, but in the end it was felt that there was no doubt that one or the other of these men would succeed to the vacant bishopric.
