DEAR AULD GLFSCA (AND EDINBURGH) SIR,—Asa citizen of Edinburgh, whose
work frequently takes him to Glasgow, I enjoyed very much lain Hamilton's article in your current issue. In case, however, his closing reference to Edinburgh's " cool, well-bred embrace " might lead Southerners to believe that Edinburgh wouldn't have welcomed Roy Rogers and Trigger as they were welcomed in Glasgow I should like to record that if Mr. Hamilton had been in one of Edinburgh's leading hotels on Sunday, February 21st, he would have seen (according to reports in last Monday's Scotsman) that the former Holly- wood cowboy, and his wife and horse, were welcomed by an even larger and even more vociferous crowd of children, and their parents, than had been in Glasgow the pre- vious Sunday, and that thousands of douce folk had • the utmost difficulty in getting to churches for the evening services.--Yours faithfully,
