George Thomson. Junr [Junior] of Pitmedden Ho. [House] Revd. [Reverend] J. S. Kemp Mr. James Bowman |
065 | This monument was erected in 1637 by the Senate of Marischal College, Aberdeen to commemorate the endowment of £16 annually on the college in 1614, for the education of six students. The subject of the monument was a doctor of medicine who went to Russia, made a fortune there, and finally settled down on the estate of Pitmedden. The property has passed into another family but this endownment is still a burthen [burden] on the estate. The object itself is of an unpretending character. On the east side it bears the Liddell arms, on the west the arms of Aberdeen, while on the north and south side there are Latin inscriptions explaining the object for which it was erected. |
