< Friday 19 August 1870 Some particulars respecting Mr. James Marshall, solicitor, whose death on the 17th inst. appears amongst our obituary notices yesterday, may be of interest to many who havo known the deceased gentleman during the 16 years of his life in this colony. He was, as we learn, one of the oldest members in the colony of the Masonic fraternity, having been master of the "Ancient Lodge of Edinburgh Mary's Chapel," as early as 1830. He was subsequently Poet Laureate of the Canongate Kilwinning Lodge, chairman of the Law Committee of the Grand Lodge of Scotland, and a Knight Templar. Previously to his arrival in this colony he had practised for 30 years in tho Supreme Court of Scotland, chiefly in tho criminal department of the law, during which time he also compiled several works on Scotch law, and contributed some dramatic sketches to the Edinburgh stage. During the last few years, having retired in a great measure from the active practico of his profession owing to his advanced years, he occupied] himself principally with landscape painting, of which ho was a tolerably proficient amateur, his pictures generally gaining for him well-merited praise.
