[Footnote] 105a.

This kist [in the Kilmartin church] contains the remains of Letitia Lockhart MacTavish, wife to Sheriff Dugald MacTavish [father in-law of James Hargrave]. Letitia died exactly one month to the day after Sheriff MacTavish in 1854. The brown cross was erected with the inscription by William MacTavish, Governor of Assinaboia and Ruperts Land, of the Hudson Bay Company Canada on his first trip back to Scotland after the death of his father and mother.
