Dixon (John H.), viv. 
This author, now resident at Pitlochry, formerly lived 
at or near Poolewe, West Ross-shire. He is primarily an 
antiquarian, and although the undermentioned work contains 
some twenty pages in all dealing with birds, the author does 
not appear to have published anything else on this subject ; 
his interests, as Dr. Harvie-Rrown tells us, being rather 
directed to such subjects as the old iron-smeltings in the 
Highlands.
