GRATITUDE.
Patient (cured, and leaving the hospital—to Nurse). "I thank you kindly, Miss, for all your goodness—I shall never forget it! If ever there was a Fallen Hangel you're one!"

(Died at Edinburgh, Saturday, March 2, 1895, in his 86th year.)

Great humorist—yet human-hearted;
A Caledonian—yet not dour,
