(106,653), drew 200 gs. at the Perth sale of 1914. 

 The old cow's calf of 1915 was Doune Marshal by 

 Dunglass Brilliant (120,003), and he passed into the 

 herd of Mr Parkin-Moore. Two of his sons were in 

 the Penrith winning group of 1919. At seventeen 

 years of age Lady Maud produced to Dunglass 

 Brilliant the bull Doune Maximum, which was sold 

 to Mr Gill, Tomich, at 240 gs. Impressed with the 

 merits of the Meg Merrilies family, Mr Scrimgeour 

 bought another of that line of breeding at the Mains 

 of Sanquhar draft sale of 1914. That was Lady 

 Hawthorn 2nd by Dunglass Royalist (108,496), from 

 a dam by Hawthorn Champion (99,098). She was in 

 calf to Collynie Grand Knight (119,549), and her calf 

 of 1915 was the famous Doune Grand Knight which 

 was first in his class and reserve champion at the 

 Perth Show of 1917, where he was taken out by Mr 

 Casares at 1000 gs. Lady Hawthorn 2nd bred a 

 highly promising heifer calf in 1916 which was sold 

 for the States. Her bull calf of 1917 fetched 380 gs. 

 at Perth, and she followed up by producing to 

 Dunglass Brilliant the grand dark roan Doune 

 Majestic, for which Mr Wm. A. Dron paid 1500 gs. 

 She has now a bull calf of remarkable promise by 

 Eclipse of Collynie. 



The Rachel family has proved a great acquisition 

 to the Doune Lodge herd. Roan Rachel, bred by the 

 late Mr Alexander Robertson, Ballechin, was one of 

 Mr Scrimgeour's highly fortunate purchases. Sired 

 by the noted bull Marquis (84,061), and with the 

 crosses of Captain of the Guard, Athabasca, Cherub
