HIGHLAND PAPERS
xviii
of Mr. Duncan M‘Laren, formerly M.P. for the city. The
outcome of that movement was the appointment of the
Crofter Commission and the passing of the Act by which
the Highland crofters secured fixity of tenure and fair rents.
He had a caustic humour, which sometimes did less than
justice to his real kindness of heart. He made and kept
many friends.
Latterly his health was precarious, but he carried on
his various activities till within a week of his death.
In October 1933 he was taken seriously ill. He died in
his own house, 45 Northumberland Street, Edinburgh, on
October 15.
He married in 1900 Nora Helen, daughter of General
Sir Hugh Gough, V.C., G.C.B. He leaves two sons and
two daughters.
