Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Robert Burns: Poet-Laureate of Lodge Canongate Kilwinning The hailing of Robert Burns as Caledonia´s Bard in St Andrews Lodge was not recorded; the making him burgess of Linlithgow was not registered; his appointment as Poet- Laureate of Lodge Canongate Kilwinning was not minuted but all established by conclusive and substantial proof. The last half of this Address deals with him as Poet-Laureate: his affiliation, Feb. i, 1787; the gift of twenty guineas by the Lodge in 1815 for the Dumfries Mausoleum, because he was Poet-Laureate; the appointment of James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd, in 1835, as successor of Robert Burns, Poet-Laureate; with concluding reference to living links in the chain of evidence: Henry Erskine, Dugald Stewart, Henry Mackenzie, Robert Ainslie, Nasmyth the artist, and other personal friends of the poet.
