ROBERT FALCONER
by GEORGE MACDONALD, LL.D.
Note from electronic text creator: I have compiled a glossary with
definitions of most of the Scottish words found in this work and
placed it at the end of this electronic text. This glossary does
not belong to the original work, but is designed to help with the
conversations and references in Broad Scots found in this work. A
further explanation of this list can be found towards the end of
this document, preceding the glossary.
Any notes that I have made in the text (e.g. relating to Greek words
in the text) have been enclosed in {} brackets.
