I
I was delighted with this ride - Strathbogie is beautiful but I have not
time to describe its beauties. The town
of Huntly is delightfully situated - and excellently planned. I was most kindly received here by a Mr.
Andrews, a taylor and clothier. His wife
was particularly kind to me - everything she could conceive would make me
comfortable that she instantly provided.
I had sent bills here and Mr. Maitland had writ to them of my coming. I lectured in the Hall to a crowded and
attentive audience, about 3 hours and slept in Mr. Andrews.left Inverury with the "Duchess of Gordon" for Huntly which I reached about 5 in the evening.
