NOTES OF THE MONTH.
167 The Glasgow Herald reports that a most interesting discovery has been made in con- nection with the restoration of Culross Abbey. While excavations were being made the workmen came upon an exquisitely- carved recumbent stone figure of a chieftain clad in double armour. The head, which is gone, had reclined on a richly - bound cushion. The shoulders, chest, and arms are encased in plate armour. There is a cape of chain - mail covering the shoulders and upper part of the b...reast. Over the heart is carved the top rigging of a ship, with a cross at the head of the mainmast, from which a pennant is flying. Over the right thigh there is a full -rigged ship of Roman build, having the head of a dragon for a figure-head ; it has also a cross at its mainmast and flies a pennant. An orna- mental belt surrounds the loins, and to this a sword is attached. All that remains of the sword is the roped hilt and richly-carved guard. The workmanship is almost as perfect as when it left the sculptor's hands.
