Was It Hewn Out by a Smith for a Smithy? 1 To the majority of residents In Edlnburg and the vicinity the remark able Gllmerton Cave is unknown, and unvtslted even If known by hearsay. We are not, however, the first to no tice the cave, for in 1782 the Rev. Thomas Whyte, then minister of Li berton, has the following story on re cord: "Here is a famous cave dug out of a rock by one George Paterson, a smith. It was finished in 1724, after five years' hard labor, as appears from the Inscription on one of the chimney heads. In this cave are several apart ments, several beds, a spacious table, with a large punch bowl, all cut out of the rock in the nicest manner. Here there was a forge, with a well and washing house. Here there were sev eral windows which communicated light from above. The author of this extraordinary piece of workmanship lived in it for a long time iwth his wife and family, and prosecuted Ins business as a smith. He died in It about the year 1735. He was a feuar. or feodary, and consequently, the cave he formed and embellished so much, and the garden above It, were his own Open Evenings SOLVED BY THIS List of Gift Suggestions: For Women Plain black lisle and cotton hose, 25c to 75c. .Fancy emb. lisle hose, 50c to f 1 .25.

His cave for many years was deemed a great curiosity, and visited by all the people of fashion;" - Having procured the gate key and a couple of oil lamps, we unlocked the door, and descend at once by a flight o ftwelve steps to the beginning of a long passage. On the right is the forge, indisputably enough, on the left the Jamb of the first doorway. The main passage, which is about six feet high and three feet broad throughout, main tains a straight direction, roughly, westward for a distance of forty-one feet. It then turns abruptly to the northwest, and after expanding into three rounded chambers ends in a low passage, eighteen feet long and very narrow, which is said to be the be ginning of an underground communi cation with Craigmillar. At the foot of the entrance steps the doorway on the .left leads into o. partly straight sided chamber which expands into two curved rooms, a ledge of the rock being left in each, about eighteen in ches to serve as seats or beds. All the hewn work throughout these cham bers and passages has been done with an implement of iron, not chisel-shan- ed, but sharp pointed.

Can we find mm in any records, local or other' Where was he buried So remarkable a feat as the hewing out of a series of chambers In solid rock and the dwell ing therein of a blacksmith and his family surely help to keep green the record of the man who performed It But the parish records are silent, and locally nothing more is known of' Pat erson than what is contained in the statement by the parish minister of 1782. Computing very roughly the amount of rock actually hewn and removed from the cave before the chambers and passages were In a fit stae for habita tion, we are confronted with the re suit that rock to the extent of over half a million cubical feet has been thus displaced probably an underes timate. Is it credible that this quarry was the work of one pair of arms drove the pick for several years? uuUeullS uie wors irom tne standpoint of archaeology also, we find that the Gilmerton Cave is only one of a large number of chambered and recessed hollows in slmlar rock, hewn in the same style, and with similar entran ces, door jambs and bar holes.
