The baronial and ecclesiastical antiquities of Scotland . as made with William Eiddel,mason, for putting up a raill of ston ballusters about it, with a lyon and unicorne upon the firstturn, for all which he was to have for workmanship twelve pound sterling, the College famishingstone, lyme, and all other materialls. The worke was begune the last day of June, and wasfinished the 15th day of August of the same The corporation of the College being afSuent, the buildings have been kept in good con-dition, and they have lost none of the main features which Slezer represents in his view, takentowards the close of the seventeenth century—a circumstance only too remarkable in connexionwith a Scottish edifice. A very clear, terse, and fiiU account of the University, as an educationalinstitution, was prepared for Sir John Sinclairs Statistical Account of Scotland, which, beingascertained to have been written by Dr Thomas Eeid, is incorporated, with notes, in Sir WiUiamHamiltons edition of that philosophers works. * iluiiimenta, ut sup. 1 rtii.
