It is recorded that on one occasion he managed to make his way into the pul- pit of Ettrick kirk before the arrival of the minister. When the latter himself reached the foot of the pulpit stairs and discovered the occupant of his place, he called out, “Come down, John.” The predicament reached its climax when the congregation heard the answer. “No. sir : come ye up ; they’re a stiff-necked and rebellious people; it’ll Lak’ us baith." ‘ named Jock Scott, well known and wel- corned on that country side for his poetic proclivnies.
