HELENSBURGH GUIDE.
W. A. Muirliead, Esq., Edinburgh, and to the left a smaller
of the Lord's prayer — both gifts from the artist. To the
right is a monument in Ayrshire stone and white marble,
containing a medallion by Wm. Brodie, Esq., E,.S,A., dedi-
cated by his parishioners and friends to the revered memory
of the late Robert Story, minister of Roseneath, whose pas-
torate of forty-two years closed in 1859. In the neigh-
bourhood of it is Roseneath village or clachan — imm^or-
talised by Sir Walter Scott. It probably has not in-
creased since the times of Jeanie Deans, and consists of less
than a score of little low-roofed cottages, occupied by a pri-
mitive and contented population, who hold themselves secure
under the shadow of the great MacCallum More's wing.
