Excerpt from The History of the High School of Edinburgh
To the present learned Rector and his colleagues, the Author's acknowledgments are more especially due, for the great trouble which they have taken in reference to this work; and he begs to assure them, that they have his best wishes for their continued success in those important labours to which, he knows the public is well aware, they are devoting their most strenuous exertions. He is also much indebted to Professor fillans and Dr carson, who were successively at the head of the seminary; as well as to Mr benjamin mackay, one of the Classical Masters, who several years ago retired from public life.
