JO Scots Worthies, 1560-1688.
The complaint was at once forwarded to the famous Glasgow
"assembly" of 1638, when "by a full vote" he was " depryved of
his ministerial! functione," and, except public repentance be made,
"ordained to be excommunicated, being ane professed Arminiane
and popish champion." The old abbey which had received
Crichton so joyfully now shut her doors against him. But we must
not think he was conquered. He became chaplain to the marquis
of Ormond, and soon rose to be " chaplain-major of his majesty's
army" — being installed in the Trinity kirk of Dublin." No doubt
he saw faithful service, but after 1649 he disappears from history.
