J. Jamieson
Etymological Dictionary of the Scottish Language
ON TUESDAY, 3 December 1878, there was held within the premises of Mr Dowell at 18 George Street, Edinburgh, an auction of the library of Andrew Jervise, Esq., F.S.A.Scot.. Jervise, a bachelor, had died almost eight months before at the age of 58. In his library was a twovolume edition of Jamieson's Dictionary of the Scottish Language, edited by John Johnstone, published by Wm. Tait in 184041, and printed at the University Press Messrs. Stevenson's, then in Thistle Street. This was sold for the sum of 3 3s. to an unnamed buyer. In 1967 in The Book Cellar, a newlyopened secondhand bookshop in Dundas Street, Edinburgh, it was to appear again. This time it was brokenbacked and apparently of undistinguished origin.
