DONALD MACLEAN DUNVEGAN, SKYE EDINBURGH: JOHN GRANT 31 GEORGE IV. BRIDGE z Gb ma MIS DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF DONALD MACKINNON, M.A. LATE PROFESSOR OF CELTIC LANGUAGES AND LITERATURE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH TO WHOSE ASSISTANCE AND ENCOURAGEMENT THE AUTHOR WAS MUCH INDEBTED IN PREPARING THIS WORK 331716 PREFACE About the middle of last century the need for a Biblio- graphy of Gaelic Literature was much felt by scholars and others interested in that language. Since John Reid published his Bibliotheca Scoto-Celtica in Glasgow in 1832, a great many new books appeared in Gaelic from the printing-presses of Edinburgh, Glasgow, and other places, but hitherto there has been no work of reference available to guide the student in his selection of suitable books. Reid's work dealt with Gaelic Literature under several different subjects, and although it possessed considerable merit, so backward was the state of education over the Highlands and Islands of Scotland at the time of its appearance and for many years afterwards that the book was hardly known even to those who had a fair knowledge of the Gaelic language. About sixteen years ago I resolved to compile a Bibliography of Books printed in the Gaelic of Scotland from their Incunabula to the present year. I was aware viii TYPOGRAPHIA SCOTO-GADELICA of the magnitude and difficulty of the task, but many friendly letters from literary Celts who appreciated the value of my work helped in no small degree to encourage me to persevere in my effort. The late Professor Donald Mackinnon placed at my disposal very valuable bibliographic material which he had collected for many years before he became the first occupant of the Celtic Chair in Edinburgh. It is not possible for me to acknowledge fully my indebtedness to this collection. The reader will see that I have confined myself en- tirely to books printed in the Gaelic of Scotland, which I have arranged in alphabetical sequence according to the names of the authors. Only in very few instances has this order been departed from, and in each case for some reason. I have given a verbatim et literatim transcript of the Title-Pages, adding a full collation of each work by pagination rather than by signatures. Occasionally I have given a detailed description of some books and their authors, more especially where the nature of the works invited comments or statements that would likely be appreciated by readers. In transcribing some of the Titles, I had, in a few instances, to correct manifest typographic errors that led to ambiguity or obscurity, and which, in a few instances, even amounted to mis- PREFACE ix statements. No attempt has been made to reproduce the assortment of type used in the originals. I have included the leading religious tracts and pamphlets, as well as tractates of controversial literature, ecclesiastical and secular. Mere leaflets of no merit or originality are excluded. It is most likely that there have been some booklets and editions of which I have not heard, but it is my belief that the reader in this work has before him practi- cally a full Inventory of the Printed Books that appeared up to date in the Gaelic of Scotland. To ensure compre- hensiveness and accuracy I have spared neither labour nor expense. I have searched the leading Libraries of Great Britain, and I have been in communication with Colonial and Continental Librarians and Booksellers. I have approached private collectors as far as I could go, and I have for many years scanned and noted the pages of booksellers' and auctioneers' catalogues. I trust that literary Celts, Booksellers, Librarians, as well as the general public, will find in this work something of interest and value. It will, I hope, show those ignorant of Gaelic that the venerable language has a wide field of literature ; and to the scholar already cognisant of that fact it will reveal the exact extent as well as the nature and quality thereof. Gaelic literature, like the literature of most countries, has been contributed to by native X TYPOGRAPHIA SCOTO-GADELICA Poets, Theologians, Philologists, Educationists, and Patriots, as well as by men and women from many spheres in life, to whose genius and efforts their country- men of the present day owe, in great measure, their intellectual and material advancement alongside the other races that make up our mighty empire. The Author desires to express his acknowledgments to the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland for their offer of financial assistance towards the expenses of the publication of this work.

It was printed on thick and thin papers : the latter was for the Colonies. The price per copy was sixpence.

Possibly the publisher discovered the nature of the GaeHc poetry appended to the English text before the impression was sold out, and to conceal his connexion with the work had the Titles cut out. The Satire, ' Baran Supair* refers to a Mr. Maxwell, factor to the Duke of Argyll ; it was composed by John Bethune (Macbethac), Tutor to the Duke of Argyll.

Advertise- ment by the Editor + 326 pp. This work is now somewhat rare^ but not by any means so scarce as was thought fifty years ago. We know ot more than thirty copies of the work. The late John F. Campbell was the first to draw attention to its value and rarity in vol. iv. of the West Highland Tales^ 1864. Ever since the book has been much sought after by Celtic scholars. As noted there were three Gaelic Titles issued, and any one of these goes with the English Title. Rarely are two Gaelic Titles bound with the English Title. We have only met with one copy that contained Gaelic Titles II. and III. Most copies that gave Title IV. have Don before Co-Fhreagarrach corrected to Aon. We have not met with the word ' Leabhar-Receudair ' corrected as given in Reid's ' Bibliotheca Scoto-Celtica.'' All these Gaelic Titles were translations from English, and the orthography suggests that there were two Translators. In any case the three Gaelic Titles and the one English Title, as well as the two variants in the " Advertisement by the Editor," must have been printed either contemporaneously or in rapid succession to replenish an insufficient issue of " Titles and Advertisement." The work was edited by the Rev. Dr. James MacLagan of Blair- AthoU, assisted by others. John Gillies knew no Gaelic. The published price was seven shillings and six- pence.

It is possible, as the preface to the fourth is undated, that it was written years previous to its publication, and this would make the statements agree.

These poems were printed by him in a series of articles which he contributed to the ' Gentleman' s Magazine^ the first article appearing in the December No. 1782. The reprint was issued undoubtedly in 1784, as Walker quotes it. Vide '■Historical Memoirs of The Irish Bards^ London, 1786, pages 38 and 39, footnotes. The poems here given are the same as are still recited by the natives, showing that nothing of what was given by Macpherson was ever current in the Highlands. This tractate is now extremely rare.

The author was a native of Ardgour, where he had a small farm. He was converted under the earnest preaching of the Haldines, and he composed a few spiritual hymns. On some occasions, when passion or resentment moved him, Kennedy composed songs which he deemed worthy of publication alongside his spiritual effusions. His judgment in this respect was well founded, for his songs are still very popular while the hymns are forgotten.

Edinburgh : Maclachlan & Stewart. 1852." i2mo. This is stated to be the ' Third Edition^ but circum- stances and inferences point very strongly to this Edition itself as the first edition that did appear separate from the Dictionary. In 1853 190 copies were reprinted, and 260 in 1872. Neil M' Alpine, the Author of the Gaelic Dictionary and Grammar, was teacher of the Kilmeny School, Islay. In his native Island of Islay the appearance of the Dictionary brought him notoriety instead of remuneration and sympathy. When the destitution of 1846 was severely felt over all the Western Isles, M'Alpine wrote those that attempted to relieve the distress, pointing out to them the starving condi- tion of the Islay people. This representation resulted in a boat with meal being sent to Lochindal. This meritorious step on the part of M*Alpine was, however, construed by the laird of the time as reflecting on his dignity and tres- passing on his prerogative, and he would have the poor schoolmaster dismissed. The Presbytery, to whom at that time teachers were responsible, sympathised, not with the teacher, but with the laird. Where Presbyteries are judges it is well known, or ought to be, that neither the School- house nor the Manse has the slightest chance against the Mansion House. After years of wrangling — the parishioners simply looking on, not daring to interfere or threaten on behalf of their true benefactor — M^Alpine was dismissed from his school, and thrown utterly destitute on the charity of his indigent friends. He died in receipt of parochial relief in 1867 at the age of eighty years. A very handsome tomb- stone of polished granite was erected to his memory by his fellow-countrymen, which bears a very suitable inscription. Macaskill (Angus), Songs. Wick, 1863.

He died in or about the year 1890 in the Parish of Eddrachaolis. He 174 TYPOGRAPHIA SCOTO-GADELICA left no family. He took the books away as soon as they were printed, but never paid for them. He afterwards repented and turned religious, and it is said that he sought out as many copies of his book as he could procure and destroyed them. It turned out, however, that his repentance was repentance repented of. He became very anxious to reprint his book with the addition of some fresh pieces, but although he offered some a share of the profits of this new venture, he was not successful in inducing a partner to join him, Macbain (Alex., LL.D.), An Etymological Dic- tionary.

SheriiF-Substitute Hugh M'Culloch was drowned through the capsizing of a boat while crossing the Meikle Ferry near Dornoch in the year 1809. Many others were drowned also. The Sheriff was noted for his piety. The Elegy was composed by Samuel Matheson and is given in the various editions of the Hymns of Donald Matheson of Kildonan. Bound up with the Elegy on Sheriff Macculloch is another Elegy, also composed by Samuel Matheson on those drowned at Newfoundland, with the following Title : " Marbh-rann do'n Mhuintear a bhathadh aig Nuafoundland air an Laong ^chaidh e Gallaobh^ We have a copy of this Elegy in MS. It is a mere doggrel. It refers to the loss of what used to be known in Sutherland and Caithness as ' Long Mhor America.^ We made a full inquiry regarding the loss of this vessel. The facts are as follows. Some of the tenants on Sir John Sinclair's estate were apprised of Sir John's intention to turn parts of his estate into large sheep farms. They resolved not to wait until evicted, but emigrate to Canada. They were joined also by a large number of the poor people, who made up their minds to seek their fortune in the New World. In early September in the year 1807 a large brig, after calling at one or two places, arrived at Scrabster Roads, and during Friday and Saturday of the Martinmas Market at Thurso, completed her boarding of the passengers and their luggage. 1 86 TYPOGRAPHIA SCOTO-GADELICA A violent storm which destroyed the crops of the district delayed the vessel in harbour for ten days. She then sailed on a tediously long voyage till she reached the banks of New^- foundland, w^here she got becalmed in a thick fog, so that she had to anchor. A violent gale arose, and the vessel drifted from her moorings to a rock-bound coast. To make matters vv'orse the seamen w^ere drunk. At last the vessel wzs so shattered against the rocks that she foundered. It is said that Alexander Gunn of Coilteil sang on deck the 46th Psalm in Gaelic, and as the vessel was actually sinking he uttered aloud, *' O thusa a Thighearn da geill na duilean dian cur agus buain aig an aon am" It used to be believed in the North that only three souls were saved. A lady lives in England at present (1906) to whom a survivor communicated full details of the loss of the ill-fated ship, and the sufferings of the survivors in Newfoundland, who had to walk twelve miles, wet and hungry, through ice and snow to the nearest habitation. Thirteen souls were saved. A Thurso corre- spondent in reporting the sad loss of the vessel to the Inver- ness Journal in 1808, called her ' The Rambler of Leith^ Maccuish (D.

The book was stereotyped by the publishers, Messrs. M'Gregor, Poison & Co., Glasgow, in 1841. It was published in two volumes at 12s. for the complete work. The first volume was more in demand than the second, so that it was sold out, leaving a stock of the second volume in the hands of the publishers. A second impression of the first volume was issued to complete sets. The plates were 248 TYPOGRAPHIA SCOTO-GADELICA sold to Messrs.

The publishers to whom the plates were sold put their own name on the title-page of the second issue of Part I.

He composed a great many songs that were never printed, and some are in manu- script in possession of his family. After the publication of his volume of Songs in i8ii, the Poet went to North America, where he Hved for some years among the Gaelic-speaking communities. On his return to Scotland, Macleod lived in his native parish, where he farmed a croft which he had rent free from MacLeod of MacLeod as Fisherman, and family Bard. He was known in Skye as ' Domhnull nan Oran^ It is said that he had a * Prospectus ' printed of a new and enlarged Edition of his Poems, which was to appear with the Title ' An Sealladh nach Fhaicear* The Author solicited subscriptions not from those who would expect value for their money, but from the Well-to-do, who had wit and foresight to see that they were to infer from the oracular terminology of the Title of the New Work, that the ^ Prospectus^ was an appeal causa henignitatis^ to help an impecunious Minstrel to tide over a temporary incon- venience.

This version found no favour in Gaelic-speaking parishes j indeed there is no proof that it w^as ever used in any church. It follows the ' Caogad'' closely for the first fifty Psalms, and for the last hundred Psalms, Kirk had to rely on himself. It appears that five or even six hundred copies were printed. There is in existence in the handwriting of Kirk the following note regarding the work. " Edinburgh, June 23, 1688. Andrew Chambers, Stationer, reckoned of the Irish psalm book in his shop 106 unbound, 115 bound, sum total 221. The number given to Gideon Shaw was 322, whereof I received to my best remembrance 48. The binding of each plain book was 10^. The guilded was the usual rate of the town. Allow to Mr. Chambers a httle book I took of Mr. Claud's on the Sacraments, and bid him sell off as many as he can at lo^ piece, and give some out to the Stationers who may get them off by the correspondents & I will allow a penny each book for vending besides the binding. I will take for them partly money, partly books in exchange." Very rare. Good copies sell from three to six pounds. Psalms — Synod of Argyle's Version.

The quotation from Col. iii. 16 is an original translation, and difFers from that given in the Irish Nev^^ Testament of 1602. It is doubtful if indeed the existence of the Irish New Testament was known in Argyleshire at the time. This little book is now extremely rare. We know of five or six copies. The other hundred Psalms were printed in Edinburgh in 1694. The work was corrected as it passed through the Press by the Rev. John Maclaurin, the father of Professor Maclaurin, the Editor of Sir Isaac Newton's Principia. We have considered very carefully the question whether this completed Edition of the Psalms by the Synod of Argyle was published as well as printed in the year 1694, and we have come, but with considerable hesitation, to the conclusion (i) that the completed work, printed according to the Records of the Synod of Argyle in 1694, was also published and circulated in that same year ; (2) that the Shorter Catechism was issued with it, bearing the same date. As no copy is known to exist of this Edition, naively designated * The Edition which nobody saw^ it has been suggested that from the disturbed nature of the country at the time, the whole impression was withheld from circulation until 1702. This would account for the issue of the Shorter Catechism of 1702 being designated ' Third Edition^ No reliance, however, can be placed on the Ordinal that denotes the Edition of a Gaelic book, for a printer ignorant of Gaelic, with probably a printed Title-page before him for a * Copy^ would print verbatim what was before him, except as far as printer's name, place, and date required alteration. The 1694 Edition inadvertently reproduced verbatim for the Catechism the Title-page of the 1659 Edition [second] ; or 320 TYPOGRAPHIA SCOTO-GADELICA the 1694 Edition was itself similarly reproduced in the Edition of 1702. While the latter alternative is by no means improbable, as Editions of subsequent dates to 1715 show, it is very much more Hkely in this case that the initial and misleading error was made in the former. To state in extenso the premises leading to this view would take up much space, and possibly they would not by some be accepted as proving quod erat demonstrandum. We have examined an Edition of the Psalms bearing date 1707, and bound with it was the Catechism of even date designated ' Fifth Edition^ but we have not seen the Edition of 1705, referred to in this work, and which ought to have with it the ^Fourth Edition^ of the Catechism. Allowing the existence of a 1705 Edition as real, and not a misprint or miscopy for 1707, we can account for all the earlier Editions of the Catechisms and Psalms, without assuming the existence of a 1694 Edition, viz. ist, 1651 j 2nd, 1659 ; 3rd, 1702; 4th, 1705 ; 5th, 1707 ; 6th, 1715. As stated, we hold to the view that the complete Edition of the Psalms appeared in 1694. The Synod of Argyle were granted the privilege to print this version of the Psalms for nineteen years, and to forbid any one from interfer- ing with their right. No work until published could be registered for any privilege then any more than now, for ^ no book can be registered before it is published^ has always been a dictum in copyright. It is said that a copy of the Edition of 1694 without a Title-page was sold in the Duke of Sussex Library [vide No. 1247, ^•^' ^^^- ^^445 page 50). If any reliance can be placed on the date assigned, it must have been inferred from the Title of the Catechism, as the ' Grant of Priviledge ' on the verso of Title was not available.

At the same time Lamont was the tenant of a small farm on the island, to the cultivation of which, with the help of his neighbours, he paid a great deal of attention. It was while in lona most of his Songs and Poems were composed. In Lamont's poetry we find frequent allusions to industries and customs now quite obsolete, but still re- membered by the older generation of the Hebrides. The Editor has done ample justice to the work of his near kinsman, who died in lona in the year 1856, leaving a family that attained to very important positions in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and abroad. We may further remark that the Celtic scholar will find in Lamont's poetry many rare — if not unique words — and expressions, worthy of being enshrined in a standard lexicographical work.
