Principal Macleod, D.D., Free Church College, Edinburgh. Inverness: Northern Chronicle Office. Price, 5/-; post free, 5/6.
This noted biography of the famous Dr. Macdonald of Ferintosh has been reprinted. It had long been out of print, and it is to the credit of Principal Macleod that he saw this
new edition through the press. The only new matter is in the appendices, which contain among other things Appendix VI. to Annual S.P.C.K. Sermon, 1827; List of the Inhabitants of St. Kilda, taken 23rd September, 1822; Elegy on Mr. John Robertson translated into English by Principal Maclod, and also the Christian (the beautiful elegy on James Maclod) translated by the same. Principal Maclod also gives a paper—Fragments of Traditional Information on Dr. Maclod. The book is well printed and illustrated. It contains about 350 pages, and as books sell now-a-days it is cheap at 5/-.
