London, Nov. H.-(Copyright. 19G3.)-Not
Scotchmen merely. but all admirers OF
Burns, will be sorry to learn that Aud
Brig O. Ayr. which the "Plowboy Poet
immortalized, is in danger of collapsing.
1t was the Spirit of Aud Brig which,
when reviled by the Spirit of New Brig in
the poem, made a remarkable prophecy.
Til be Brig when ye're shapeless
cairn, said Auld Brig to the new. a
prophecy which turned out true twenty
five years after. and now Auld Brig too
is tottering on her foundations.
How old it Is. it Is difficult to say. Cut
deep into the wall are the figures ''1252 .
There are people who say that the date Is
mythical, but James Norris an architect
who is an experienced archaeologist and
who is interesting himself in stirring up
the Burgh Council to spend f700 necessary
to restore Aud Brig. believes that there is
nothing improbable in the date
Ayr Council is beset by one difficulty ir
the matter. Why should they spend :7CC
of public funds If they can get the money
required for nothing? 1t Seems that about
