| Boswell's Monument | Boswells' Monument Continued) | [Continued from page 97] On a granite Tablet on E [East] side of the Tower is the following inscription:- "In memory of John Irvine Boswell of Balmuto & Kingcausie. Born 28th Dec [December] 1785, Died 23rd Decr [December] 1860. A man who loved his Saviour, walked steadfastly with his God, and whose rule of life was "Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ". In early life he joined the Coldstream Guards and carried their Colours in the Battle of Talavera. Retiring from the Army he settled at Kincausie and lived to transfer the natural barreness of the estate into luxuriant fertility. He will long be remembered in the district for the enlightened zeal which he displayed in the introduction of all the improvements of modern agriculture : and did not confine his attention to his own Estates, his Knowledge and experience being ever at the Service of his neighbours, rich and poor aliKe. In every position & relation of life he maintained, with rare fidelity, the Character of a Christian Gentleman, and he died in peace trusting simply in the merits of his Saviour for acceptance with his God. His sorrowing widow, Margaret Irvine Boswell, erected this monument as a Solace in her bitter bereavement. AD 1862." |
