A ma gazine has hunted up the bis
tory of Annie Laurie. She was not
creature of imagination, but an actual
verify, of whose ancestry honorable
mention is made in Scotch history.
Stephen Laurie was a lourishing
merchant of Dumfries before James
VI. became king. Prior to 1911 he
married Marion, daughter of Provost
Coran, getting with her a handsome
marriage portion. Being man of
many acres, he took the designation
of MaXwelton, leaving at his death
his lands and titles to his eldest son
John. The next head of the house
was Robert, baronet. He was twice
married, and had. by his second wife,
three sons and four daughters. The
birth of one of the latter is thus en-
tered in the family register by the
father: .At the pleasure of the
Almighty God, my daughter, Annie
Laurie, was born on the 10th day of
December, 1852. about s o'clock in
the morning, and was baptized by
Mr. George Hunter, the minister of
Glencairn." The well-knOwn lyric
was composed by Mr.. Douglas Fin

his affections, but married his rival,
