AlKENGALL FROM COCKBURNSPATH. 



The Fifth Meeting was held at Cockburnspath for

 who had particularly wished to be present were unavoidably 

 detained at the last moment. 



Those present were as follows: — Mr Evans, M.A., F.Z.S., 

 Cambridge, President ; Colonel Milne Home, Caldra, Duns, 

 Organizing Secretary; Mr Robert Brown, Duns; Mr Ferguson, 

 F.S.A. (Scot.), Duns; Mr Hood, Miss Hood, Mrs Hood,

 Mr John Wilson and Miss Wilson, Chapelhill. 



Members from a distance arrived at Cockburnspath Station 

 at 8-30 a.m., where a brake awaited them, and, after a short 

 stay at the Hotel, drove up to Stottencleugh, alighting en 

 route at Oldhamstocks Church, where they were received by 

 the Rev. W, M. Hutton, minister of the parish, who drew 

 their attention specially to the " Hepburn Aisle," a structure 

 attached to the east end of the church, which apparently 

 had been the chancel. The aisle was connected with the 

 Hepburns of Blackcastle, of which property nothing now 

 remains but a field of that name on a hill close to the 

 church.
