A chaplain's house was also provided at Glamis Castle. Memus mentioned on p. 193 is a hamlet in the parish of Tannadice, Forfarshire. Canon Hunter infers from the old Diocesan Minutebook that there was either a congregation at Memus served by the priest in charge of Cortachy, or that he had his residence there. Meetings of clergy of the District or Diocese of Dunkeld were held there 15 November 1743, and 30 April 1745. The Rev. John Ramsay ' of Memus' died in 1756. Cortachy appears to have been united to Kirriemuir about that date. I much regret to have to record the death of my kind friend Canon Douglas on 13 March 1899. He had been Incumbent of Kirriemuir since 1851. APPENDIX IX THE BISHOP'S FAMILY Charles Wordsworth, b. 22 August 1806; m. 1st (29 December 1835), Miss Charlotte Day, daughter of Rev.
