Book Description
Excerpt from Selections From the Writings of the Late William Forsyth: With Memoir and Notes September, 1842, and thirty-five years after I have heard Mr. Forsyth speak of that reporting feat with very pardonable pride. His writings in the Herald drew on him the attention of Mr. Carruthers of Inverness, no mean judge of literary ability, and towards the end of 1842 that gentleman gave Mr. Forsyth a post on The Courier immediately under himself. While engaged on The Inverneaa Courier Mr. Forsyth's happy parody of Johnny Cope was written, in good humoured raillery of the Lord Provost of Edinburgh having overslept himself on the morning of the day of Her Most Gracious Majesty's landing at Granton Pier. The refrain of Hey Jamie Forrest, are ye wauken yet still rings in the ears of many who then laughed heartily at the point and humour of the parody. In 1843 Mr. J. H. Wilson retired from the sub-editorship of the Aberdeen Herald, and the post was offered to, and accepted by, Mr. Forsyth. Shortly before this date Mr. Forsyth, senior, was appointed to the office of an Excise Permit Writer in Aberdeen, and there he and his wife had taken up their residence, in a house at Skene Square. William was very much attached to his parents, and the pleasure of again rejoining them had much to do in deciding him on taking this appointment.
