A Noble Life

Bag om A Noble Life

Many years ago, how many need not be recorded, there lived in his ancestral castle, in the far north of Scotland, the last Earl of Cairnforth. You will not find his name in "Lodge's Peerage," for, as I say, he was the last earl, and with him the title became extinct. It had been borne for centuries by many noble and gallant men, who had lived worthily or died bravely. But I think among what we call "heroic" lives-lives the story of which touches us with something higher than pity, and deeper than love-there never was any of his race who left behind a history more truly heroic than he.
