The property was owned by the Dumbreck family. It passed to the Meldrum family who built the castle.

# The Old Army Game

The Old Army Game is a 1943 World War II cartoon starring Donald Duck that was produced by Walt Disney and distributed by RKO Radio Pictures.

## Plot

Pete is inspecting a camp and goes through the cabins to see all of the soldiers sleeping. Then he notices the snoring sound from a cabin he just inspected abruptly changing, so he checks again, only to see a record and dummies in the beds. Speaking of which, Donald Duck sneakingly arrives at the Army Camp, after some unauthorized leave.
Knowing Donald's coming, Pete hides under the bed to surprise him. Donald Duck goes to his bed, and sleeps in it, knowing that he "put it over on the sarge", not realizing that Black Pete is in. When he does, Donald runs for it. Pete chases Donald and Donald hides under one of three boxes. Donald switches the boxes repeatedly to fool Pete, but when Pete nearly finds him, and fails because Donald is clinging to the inside of the box, he kicks Donald's box which flies through the bladed fence and cracks in half. Donald's lower half falls in a hole, which causes him to think that his lower half has been cut off, and when Pete comes, he believes the same thing and begins to cry over Donald's tragedy. Donald feels so upset, he grabs Pete's gun and attempts suicide. Pete tells him to do it "Over there, behind the bushes", to which Donald comes out of the hole realizing that his lower half hasn't been cut off. Donald feels relieved, but Pete on the other hand feels angry. Pete chases Donald to a sign which says National Speed Limit: 35 mi, so Donald and Black Pete chase more slowly (and even the music slows down) as the cartoon ends with a fade to black.

# Nei Lingding Island

Nei or Inner Lingding Island, formerly romanized as Lintin or Lin Tin Island, is an island in the Pearl River estuary in the southeastern Chinese province of Guangdong. Although it is located closer to the eastern (Hong Kong and Shenzhen) shore of the estuary, it was until 2009 administratively part of the prefecture-level city of Zhuhai, whose main administrative center is located on the west shore of the river. The jurisdiction of Nei Lingding Island was handed over to Shenzhen in 2009.

## History

In May 1513, the Portuguese explorer Jorge Álvares arrived at an island near the coast of China they called "Tamão". This was the first contact of Europeans with China via the sea route around the Cape of Good Hope. Tamão was fortified by Simão de Andrade and reclaimed by the Chinese during the expulsion of the Portuguese in the 1520s. Western scholarship, following J. M. Braga, generally contends that this "Tamão" is Nei Lingding, the main island in the mouth of the Pearl River, 6 km off the coast of the mainland. Recent Chinese scholarship finds this identification to be insufficiently proven, however, and suggests a number of other potential islands including the nearby and far larger Lantau Island.
As of 1814 Nei Lingding (then romanized as "Lintin") was called the "outer anchorage" for European ships traveling to Canton (Guangzhou). They would have to stop at the island, have their cargo inspected and measured by the Chinese customs officials stationed at the island, and pay customs duties. In 1821, when the Chinese government prohibited importation of opium into the country's ports, Lintin became a base for drug smugglers; hulks of old boats, anchored near the island, served as warehouses and depots where imported opium would be reloaded onto smaller boats to be smuggled into Guangzhou and other ports. Edmund Roberts visited the island in 1832, and noted that there were "seven to eight ships" smuggling opium, including American boats. From the 1830s until the cession of Hong Kong in the 1840s, Lintin Island was the main base for British merchants in the Pearl River Delta area. The island was also a stopping point during monsoon season for ship repair. Ships would stay on the island upwards of six months.

## Demographics

As of 1814, the population was estimated to be less than 60; in 1821, it was just under 2,000. When Edmund Roberts visited in 1832, he noted a population of approximately 5,000.

## Nature reserve

Since 1984, a part of the island has been designated the "Neilingding Island and Futian (福田) Nature Reserve". The reserve covers 7.8 square kilometers (3.0 sq mi), including 4.5 square kilometers (1.7 sq mi) of land area and 3 square kilometers (1.2 sq mi) of mangrove forest, and was created to protect some 300 rhesus macaques and other animals, such as pangolins and pythons.
