In the immediate neighbourhood of the field where the Celts 

 were picked up are remains of several Camps: — one being f mile 

 or so to S.W. on Leap-hill ; a second 1£ mile to W. ; and a third, 

 1 mile to N. on Broadlee-hill. Ou the Ordnance Survey Sheets a 

 fourth is marked on Castle Hill, less than -\ a mile from the field, 

 but in this particular I believe this is a mistake, and that what 

 is marked as a Camp is the site of an old Castle ; and if so, most 

 likely that of au old family who were in possession of the land, 

 as vassals of the Bishop of Glasgow, as oarly as the time of 

 Malcolm.

On a Key 'preserved in Peebles 



Museum. 



Tins elegant Iron Key from the 

 Peebles Museum was sketched by 

 Mr Robert Murray, Architect. It was 

 found in 1866 near Neidpath Castle, 

 and is supposed to have belonged to 

 the Earl of March, 1687. It is the 

 only article that room can be found 

 for at present, of several other an- 

 tiques preserved in the Museum of 

 the Chambers' Institution, drawn for 

 the Club by Mr Murray. The measure- 

 ments have not been obtained.
