Book Description
Excerpt from The Aberdeen Worthies, or Sketches of Characters Resident in Aberdeen During the End of the Last and Beginning of the Present Century I must confess, it was sometimes a pleasure of a melancholy nature, yet it was still a pleasure of a superlative kind, which, while reason and memory hold their seats, neither verty nor riches, nor change of cir cumstances, or clime, can either ter, impair or destroy.

He was a Trades' Burgess of Aberdeen, and had, at a former period, carried on the baking business in the usual way, but had then given up the selling of sixpenny bricks, puffy buns, sweetiewigs, and souters' clods, and taken himself to the less dignified (but no doubt), more..
