James VI and the Gowrie mystery . cent, througha marriage of a Logan with a daughter of Eobert their glory was in their ancestor, Sir EobertLogan, who fell where the good Lord James ofDouglas died, charging the Saracens on a field ofSpain, and following the heart of Bruce. So Barboursings, and to be named by Barbour, for a deed and adeath so chivalrous, is honour enough. The Logans flourished in their eyrie above theLoch of Eestalrig, and intermarried with the besthouses, Sinclairs, Ogilvys, Homes, and Eamsays ofDalhousie. It may be that some of them sleepunder the muddy floor of St. Triduanas Chapel, inthe village of Eestalrig, at the foot of the hill onthe eastern side of their old chateau. This village,surrounded by factories, is apparently just what itused to be in the days of James VI. The low thick-walled houses with fore-stairs, retain their ancient,high-pitched, red-tiled roofs, with dormer windows,and turn their tall narrow gables to the irregular street. A mile frae Embro town, you find yourself going. Photo: W. J. Hay, Edinburgh p. 150. RESTALRIG HOUSE
