Excerpt from The Castles, Palaces, and Prisons of Mary of Scotland The exalted and liberal patronage with which the Author of this National work has been honoured, has encouraged an expenditure to a much greater amount than was ever contemplated, in the ardent desire to render it in some degree worthy of the many honours conferred upon him and that the work might ultimately find its way to general circulation. The present impression, in addition to sundry improvements and emendations, contains engravings of "Queen Mary's Room and Bed," and the "Picture Gallery, Holyrood House" (a.d.1745), purposely executed in anticipation of Her Majestys early visit to the ancient palace of her ancestors. The Author has much pleasure in embracing the opportunity thus afforded him of expressing his heartfelt gratitude to his illustrious patrons and friends, and also to the public press, for the highly favourable manner in which his description of the "Castles, Palaces, And Prisons op Mary of Scotland" has been reviewed, and which has so essentially conduced to its increasing popularity.

Not illustrated. 1850 edition. Excerpt: ...in the hands of the English until the 17th of April, 1341, when it was surprised by the well conducted stratagem of William de Douglas, who had previously contributed to the victory already described. In this enterprise he was assisted by three other gentlemen. One of these, pretending to be an English shipmaster, just arrived with a cargo of goods on board of a vessel riding in the firth of Forth, exhibited samples of wine, beer, biscuits, &c., which he said composed his freight. The governor was highly pleased with them, and at once purchased the whole. The feigned captain, affecting to dread interruption from the Scots, requested to be permitted to deliver the goods very early next morning. This apparently reasonable request the governor granted; and accordingly the supposed shipmaster punctually appeared before the gate, attended by twelve armed followers, habited as mariners and escorting a waggon, in which the supplies were supposed to be contained. The gates were thrown open as the waggon approached the barrier. At this moment, and just at the entrance, the escort contrived to overturn the carriage, and by this means prevented the gates from being again shut.; They then despatched the warder and sentries, and, sounding a bugle, Douglas and a trusty band who lay in ambush near the castle rushed in and joined their intrepid companions. A determined conflict ensued, most of the garrison were put to the sword, and the castle was thus recovered by the Scots. This successful stratagem bears a striking similitude to that of Binnock, the peasant who surprised Linlithgow about twenty-eight years before.1 1 Linlithgow Palace, page 3.
