 That the position of landed gentry of England and Scotland truly is difficult is evidenced by the fact that before 1916 the Marquis had diSpoS- ed of his pack of hounds and all his horses except two chargers for mili- tary service. Shooting rights on his estate also were sold. Further re- auctions are said to be impossible without failure in the duty of land lord.
 Hopeton House is one of the treas ure houses of Scotland. The grounds, dotted with giant trees and intersect- ed by shady avenues command splendid views, taking in the whole sweep of the Firth of Forth and the Ochil Hills
