Excerpt from The Cage The name of Robert Campbell Ainslie is still remembered in Edinburgh. Anecdotes concerning him and laconicisms attributed to his lips are almost as numerous, and now are nearly as tedious, as those which embalm for posterity the memories of historical personages. Many sayings are doubtless ascribed to him which he never uttered. He was one of those rough and honest personalities who make an iron impression on a conventional generation, and whose dust mingles with the earth only that their impressive ghosts may stalk the ways of men in the embroideries of Aberglaube. For the historian, he was a fashion able physician with common-sense notions on the subject of diet, great honesty and courage, and a penetrating knowledge of human nature.
