Excerpt from The History of the High School of Edinburgh Of the High School of Edinburgh, this work comprises an historical account, founded on information derived from a careful examination of the Records of the Town-Council, and other authentic Documents. This Seminary, which existed in the beginning of the sixteenth century, was patronised by King James the Sixth, in whose reign it was styled Schola Regia Edinensis; and George the Fourth recognised its national importance by the bestowal of a handsome donation. As the work embraces much that is new respecting the lives, peculiar modes of tuition, and literary labours of the most eminent teachers, as well as brief notices of persons of distinction and rank educated at the High School, it is hoped that it will prove useful to all engaged in the honourable and arduous task of instructing youth, and interesting to a large portion of the public. The changes which have occurred in the Course of Study from the earliest period are embodied in the narrative. But in order to give information more decidedly of a practical character, a detailed account of the system of education at present pursued in the junior classes, prepared by Mr Gunn, one of the Masters, and a similar account of the highest class, furnished by Dr Schmitz, the Rector, occupy a distinct place.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Scottish Education School and University: From Early Times to 1908 I have endeavoured to be accurate in the use of quotation marks, and in verification of references in footnotes. I have revised the whole carefully, supplying omissions, and removing what could with advantage be spared, and it is perhaps not unreasonable to expect that a close and practical acquaintance with the school and university life of both Scotland and England for more than fifty years has prevented me from falling into very serious inaccuracy or misconception. I regret that Mr Strong's interesting treatise on Secondary Education in Scotland did not appear till the whole of the present work was in type, and so too late for me to profit by it.

Excerpt from Oure Tounis Colledge: Sketches of the History of the Old College of Edinburgh; With an Appendix of Historical Documents I Do not intend to apologies for these sketches, although conscious that they are full of imperfections, because I have been trained to hold that a citizen of Edinburgh is bound to do his best - whatever that best may be - to uphold the honour of his "own romantic town." My desire is rather to return thanks to the Proprietors of the 'Scotsman' for giving these sketches wide publicity through their newspaper, and for the permission readily granted me, of republishing them in the form which they now take. My thanks are also most heartily rendered to Mr Robert Adam, City Chamberlain, for much cordial cooperation and valuable help; to Mr Alexander Harris, Deputy Town-Clerk, for assistance in investigating the Minutes of Council; and to another friend, like myself a lover of Edinburgh and of "Edinburgh books," for the use of his valuable library.

Excerpt from Oure Tounis Colledge: Sketches of the History of the Old College of Edinburgh The curtain rises on the Town Council of Edin burgh, assembled, ou the lst August 1560, to consider, as their successors do unto this day, the Acts to be laid before the Parliament about to meet. The laws which thus Parliament passed have deeply affected Scottish history and Scottish character during these succeeding centuries; for by them the old Church was disestablished, and the Presbyterian system set up in its stead. During the preceding winter, a savage civil war between Protest antmiflathnliuhad raged throughout the south of Scotland. The young Queen Mary was in France; but her mother, Mary of Guise, who ably carried on the struggle in her name, had obtained the assistance of a considerable number Of French troops, against whose discipline the Lords of the Congregation, led by the Duke of Chatelherault and Lord James Stuart, had difficulty in making head. In their extremity, acting very much on the advice of John Knox, they bethought them Of seeking assistance from England; and after long negotiation, an English army, under Lord Grey de Wilton, crossed the Border early in April 1560, joined the forces Of the Protestant Lords.
