Annie Laurie. This song was originally written by William Douglas of Finland, Scotland, in the eighteenth century. there are several versions, the one given below being greatly Anglicized and modernized. The original An nie Lturie was a beautiful Scots woman of the end of the seventeenth century. Maxwelton braos are bonnie Where early fa's the dew, And it's there that Annie Laurie CDtrie'd me herpromine true; tT.lGie'd me her promise true, Which ne'er forgst will be; And for bonnie Annie Laurie I'd lay nie doune and dee. Her brow is like the snow-drift; Her throat is like the swan; Her face it is the fairest That e'er the sun shone on; That e'er the sun shene on, And dark and blue is her ee; And for bonnie Annie Iurie I'd lay me doune and dee. Like dew on the gawan lying Is the fa' of her fairy feet; Like the winds in summer sighing, Her voice is low and sweet; Her voico is low and sweet, And she's a' the world to me; And for bonnie Annie Ijiurie I'd lay me doune and dee. This sng has made the name of Douglas immortal and will hold its place in the heart of the English speaking raoe as long as the lan guage Lists. Of Douglas and his love story little is learned from history. Lit tle is know save that he loved Annie Laurie, of Maxwelton, who gave him her "promise true", but who, alas! married not him, but his wealthy rival; Fergusson, of Craig darrock. Despondent, because of his lost love Douglas, proudest of the historic house of Douglass, of Scotland, entered the war which rent Europe in twain at the time of Louis XlT. He later returned home and married, but no living descendant of his line is known. Of Annie Laurie much ampler chronicles are given. She was born at the residence of the Riddles, herjmothers people, near ' Maxwelton, December 16, 1682. The event was recorded by her father, Robert Laurie, in a manuscript note which is still ex tant at J Bar jag, the village of her birth. Her childhood davs were spent at the Maxwelton House. The mansion is preserved to-day in ancient beiuty and is visited by thousands of pilgrims every year. It came into the pos-ession of Robert Laurie three years after the birth of his famous daughter, when he was created a bormiet "for his merits" by James II. The present occupant is a graud n?phew of the last Sir Uwbert Lauiie. His proper title aud style is Rev. Sii Emilius Laurie, Baronet He has passed his 80th birthday and he aud Lady Laui ie celebrated their golden wedding last year.
