A story is some- times told that Maxwell finally perished by the hand of a daughter of that Laird of Johnstone, who had been his prisoner, and who had died in consequence of shame and grief, but this is genei'ally discredited. Another story states that this female fiend was the wife of James John- stone of Kirkton, * who lived not far from the field, and had * Sir Archibald Johnstone (he spelt it Johnstown) of Wavriestoun, executed in 1GG3 for his share in the Revolution, was son of James Johns...tone of Beirholme, who, in 1608, was returned heir to his grand- father, Gavine Johnstone of Kirkton in Kirkpatrick-Juxta. They came of the Elsieschellis family. The Johnstones of Castlemilk migrated about 1(J20 from Dumfriesshire to the east borders, where they founded a family, being previously of Kellobank, a branch of the Johnstones of Elsieschellis, who are found in the 1. 5th century. The old poet-laureate, Rare Ben Jonson, imagined that his ancestors came from Annandale, but there is no proof of it, and I cannot find the name Benjamin in any bi-anch of the Johnstones.
