I was earnestly invited to go to him at Arniston, where I should probably have been very often, had not this happened a very short while, not above a month or two, before he fell into debility of mind, and was shut up. Hew Dalrymple, Lord Drummore, who was much inferior to him in talents, was a very popular speaker.
ECCLESIASTICAL LEADERS. 251 tliough neither an orator nor an acute reasoner. He was the lay leader of the Moderate party ; and Arnis- ton was inclined to favour the other side, thou
...gh he could not follow them in their settled opposition to the law of patronage. Drummore devoted himself during tlie Assembly to the company of the clergy, and had always two or three elders who followed him to the tavern, such as Sir James Colquhoun, Colin Campbell Commissioner of Customs, &c. Drummore's speaking was not distinguished for anything but ease and popularity, and he was so deservedly a favourite with the clergy, that, taking up the common-sense of the business, or judging from what he heard in con- versation the day before, when dining with the clergy of his own side, he usually made a speech in every cause, which generally seemed to sway the Assembly, though there was not much aro;ument.
