MEMORIES OF OLD DAYS.
I find that the interest I take in public affairs helps to keep my old wheels from becoming clogged, and I intended to keep on fighting to the last gasp.".
In these words ex-Dean of "Guild White, who in his 85th year is standing as candidate for Peebles Town Council, expressed his attitude towards life in an Interview with a Press Associa- tion correspondent.
By accident of birth I ama "braw lad of Gal Water," he said, "but five weeks after birth I was taken to Jedburgh.. just when the great meeting was held at Canonmills, Edinburgh, which brought the Free Church of Scot- land into being and made the Disruption an accomplished fact.” I have a pretty good memory and still retain a vivid remem- brance of the public hanging 'of Thomas Wilson for the murder of Lauder at St. Boswells Fair. This took place at Jedburgh in October, 1849, and the result was that we the 22nd day of November, 1927, at bays tried to play the game of 3 o'clock p.m. ፡
hanging, using an apple tree in a neighbour's garden. Something went wrong with the slip knots, and my brother narrowly escaped death from suffocation, being only saved by the presence of mind of a woman who broke several of her teeth in loosening the knot.
