			The Jardine family and the legend of Spedlins Tower
			The following version of the legend of Spedlins Tower appeared in the 'Camperdown Chronicle'
			of 18 March 1930. Camperdown is a small town in south-western Victoria, Australia.
			'A few miles north of Lochmaben, on the banks of the River Annan, stands Spedlins Tower.
			[In a more modern context, it may be better to say that Spedlins Tower stands a few miles
			north of Lockerbie, scene of the infamous Pan Am flight 103 bombing in 1988]. A massive heap
			now in ruins, it was for centuries the home of a noted Border family, the Jardines of Applegirth.
			'A strange ghost story, founded on facts, is attached to it.
			'At the entrance to the tower is a stone stair, and on the first landing of this stair is a massive
			wooden trapdoor leading to the dungeon. The story is in close connection with this dungeon.
			'Early in the 17th century [other versions place the events during the reign of Charles II], a
			grain mill that stood in close proximity to the tower was burned down. [Dunty] Porteous, the
			miller, being accused of wilfully setting it on fire, fled, but was arrested on the shores of the
			Solway and confined in the dungeon by order of Alexander Jardine, the laird, who held judicial
			powers in the district.
			'Shortly after this the laird, as one of the members of Parliament for Dumfriesshire, was
			summoned to Edinburgh. Before he started he gave full instructions that the prisoner was to
			be well looked after and fed; but, unfortunately, he took the key of the dungeon away with
			him, and only found out his mistake on reaching the end of his journey.
			'He was horrified at the discovery, for he knew that this was the only means of getting food
			and water to the prisoner, and a special horseman was at once dispatched with the key, and
			instructed to ride with all speed.
			'Meanwhile, at the tower every nook and corner had been searched for it, and desperate
			efforts made to force the lock and bolts.
			'The piercing cries of the prisoner nearly drove the laird's wife out of her mind, and besides
			she had the thought of the terrible slur that would be cast on the good name of Jardine if
			anyone died for want of food in their stronghold.
			'As soon as the horseman arrived, the door was opened and a ghastly sight met the eyes
			of the warders, for there on the floor lay the prisoner, dead, having gnawed nearly all the
			flesh off one of his arms in an attempt to appease the pangs of hunger.
			'The tragedy caused a great sensation, and as those were the days of superstition the
			man's ghost naturally began to appear. The night watchman saw him running round waving
			his blood-stained arm above his head, and the inmates of the tower could not sleep for the
			noise he made.
			'The place quickly got a bad name, and everyone went in fear and trembling of Dunty as the
			ghost was called (and he still goes by this name in the district); peasants avoided the tower
			after dark and even warriors, compelled to pass that way at night, would brace themselves
			up and grip their swords tightly.
			'The unhappy laird tried every means he could think of to get rid of his unwelcome guest
			and was almost in despair, when a priest living on Tweedside came and volunteered to
			pacify it.
			'He brought with him a large black lettered Bible, which he opened and held at arm's length,
			and then, accompanied by attendants swinging censers and carrying lighted tapers, he
			proceeded to the dungeon where the prisoner died, next throught the great hall and its alcoves,
			and then through the upper chambers, prayers being chanted as he passed through them.
			'Finally he carried the Bible to one of the window sills in the great hall and there deposited it
			to act as the family's guardian, but he warned them if ever the Bible was removed the ghost
			would return with worse powers.
			'The Bible remained there till the tower was abandoned as a place of residence at the end of
			the century, and was then removed to the new mansion on the other side of the river to
			continue its good work.
			'The tower and estates passed by sale out of the family of the Jardines of Applegirth in 1889,
			but the Bible is still preserved as one of their most cherished heirlooms.
			'Dunty, however, is still accused of periodically paying visits to members of the family.'
			To this day, the folklore of the area says that, if you poke a stick into the dungeon, it will
			be half-chewed when it is withdrawn.
			Sir John Johnston, 3rd baronet
			The following is an extract from the Newgate Calendar:-
			Sir John Johnston was born at Kirkcaldy, in Fifeshire. His father had had a good estate, but
			had diminished it by extravagant living, so Sir John went young into the army to improve his
			fortune. He went over to Ireland, where he thought to better his circumstances by marriage;
			and getting into the acquaintance of a Mr Magrath, in the county of Clare, he, by his urbane
			conversation, so gained his good opinion, that he frequently invited him to dinner. Mr Magrath
			having a daughter, with ten thousand pounds as her portion, Sir John took every opportunity
			to insinuate himself into her company, and so far gained upon her affections as to obtain her
			consent to elope with him; but the father, having some hints given him of their private
			courtship, kept a very watchful eye over their actions, and at last, being confirmed in his
			suspicions, forbade Sir John his house, and kept his daughter close.
			Miss Magrath being uneasy under her confinement, and deprived of the company of Sir John,
			whom she loved to distraction, made a kinswoman her confidante, and entrusted her with a
			letter to Sir John, to let him know how uneasy her life was, and that if he would come to
			such a place, at a stated time, she would endeavour to make her escape, and meet him. But
			the lady, thinking she should gain most by obliging her uncle, delivered the letter to him,
			instead of Sir John. Mr Magrath, having read it, sealed it up again, and sent it to Sir John, who
			received it with a great deal of satisfaction, and immediately wrote an answer, and returned it
			by the same messenger. But, repairing to the place of rendezvous, instead of meeting the
			lady, he fell into an ambuscade of fellows with sticks and clubs, who beat him so unmercifully
			that he promised to relinquish his pursuit.
			Having been in London some time, and spent his money, he was obliged to apply to some of
			his countrymen for support; and Captain James Campbell, brother of the Earl of Argyll, having
			a design to steal an heiress, one Miss Mary Wharton, he and Mr Montgomery were assistants
			in the affair. Miss Wharton was the daughter of Philip Wharton, Esq., and at the age of 13, by
			his death, inherited £1500 per annum, besides a personal property to the amount of £1000.
			This young lady resided with her mother in Great Queen Street, and Captain James Campbell,
			brother of the Earl of Argyll, wishing to possess so rich a prize, determined to marry her
			perforce, and for that purpose prevailed upon Sir John Johnston and Archibald Montgomery
			to assist him in conveying Miss Wharton from her home, which being done, and a reward of
			£100 offered for the apprehension of Captain Campbell and £50 a-piece for him and Mr
			Montgomery. Sir John, being betrayed by his landlord, was apprehended and indicted for it,
			the 11th of December 1690.
			The evidence was, in substance, that Miss Mary Wharton, being an heiress of considerable
			fortune, and under the care of her guardian (Mr Bierly), was decoyed out on the 10th of
			November, and being met with by Sir John Johnston, Captain Campbell and Mr Montgomery, in
			Queen Street, was forced into a coach with six horses (appointed to wait there by Captain
			Campbell) and carried to the coachman's house, and there married to Captain Campbell,
			against the consent of herself, or knowledge of her guardian. The jury having found the
			prisoner guilty, he received sentence of death.
			The enterprise succeeded but too well to Johnston's cost. Campbell, who was the real culprit,
			escaped punishment, and married Margaret Leslie, daughter of David Lord Newark, after
			Parliament had dissolved his first marriage; but every effort to save Johnston proved
			ineffectual. Miss Wharton afterwards married Colonel Bierly, who commanded a regiment of
			horse in the service of William III.
			At the place of execution, Sir John addressed the spectators in a long speech, in which he
			not only endeavoured to make it appear he was blameless in the transaction for which he
			suffered, but that he had been greatly wronged in printed papers, in which he was charged
			with a rape at Chester, and a similar crime at Utrecht, in Holland. He was executed at Tyburn,
			the 23rd of December 1690.
			Sir Thomas Judkin-Fitzgerald, 3rd baronet
			Sir Thomas committed suicide by drowning himself. The following report of the subsequent
			inquest appeared in 'The Hull Packet and East Riding Times' of 6 May 1864:-
			'On Friday last an inquest was held by Dr Morissy, coroner of the Dublin district, on the body
			of Sir Thomas Judkin Fitzgerald, who had committed suicide by drowning himself in the River Suir
			on the Tuesday night previous. He was of an ancient family, and competent estates, but the
			Fitzgeralds bear upon their ancestral name a blazonry of misfortune……….
			'Sir Thomas, we are told, was deeply involved in debt; his liabilities pressed heavily upon him; he
			had been badgered by money lenders, solicitors, and the entire tribe of harpies who find their
			favourite prey in an easygoing Irish landlord. And this torture, it would seem, had lasted for a
			considerable time. There was at the last moment an execution in his house for £300, and that
			drove the unhappy man to his deed of self-immolation. Not through the inquest, or any other
			medium, shall we ever learn the full detail of the agony which rent his brain, and whirled him
			away, so to speak, from his bed to the brink of the deep stream; but enough is known to
			account for the act of madness committed by a man of violent temper, of sanguine hopes, of
			gloomy fears, of every contradiction and intensity indeed which is possible in human nature,
			wanting the strength of Christian faith and forbearance under suffering.
			'This frenzied bankrupt had been for a week engaged in Dublin, in endeavouring to settle with
			his more obdurate creditors, to raise a loan, or otherwise to avert the scandal of an avowed
			financial collapse. These efforts failed, and with a deliberation which left a terrible question
			for the jury to answer, Sir Thomas Judkin Fitzgerald sat down in the Irish capital, and wrote a
			letter to his attorney, quitting Dublin immediately afterwards by train. The solicitor, apparently
			after some delay, opened the epistle addressed to him, and found directions for the finding of
			his client's body. Instantly the benevolent law was put in force; telegrams were despatched
			for the peremptory arrest of the Lord of Golden Hills; but the murder had been done before the
			alarm was sounded, and the 'dark night's work' was over.
			'Silent and moody, the baronet had driven a car from Goold-cross station to Golden Hills; he
			reached home half an hour after midnight; the butler waited for him; he visited his wife for a
			few minutes in her own room; he took tea, and 'ordered the things away' as usual; he drank no
			wine or spirits - and was not in the habit of drinking them. And then, unbarring the hall door, he
			went out alone into the park.
			'Presently a great fear came over the mind of his miserable wife. She aroused the household,
			employing a strange expression - 'Sir Thomas has gone out somewhere, and he has not
			returned; I fear he has got a weakness' - a phrase indicating that he had exhibited dangerous
			eccentricities upon previous occasions. Men with lanterns searched the grounds until daylight,
			and not till then was a letter found, in which Sir Thomas Judkin Fitzgerald declared his resolve
			to die. How abject are the last words of the suicide, 'My body will be found in the weir, at that
			part called the Pig-hole.' And 'my poor body will be found in the Suir at Pig-hole, where all the
			salmon are taken, near where the white-thorn is that was lately cut.' See how, amid the
			insanity and distraction of that fearful midnight, method, order, and precaution prevailed in the
			self-murderer's brain; he dreaded lest his remains should not be recovered from the water; he
			fixed upon the particular locality of his death; he threw off hat and coat before taking that
			horrible plunge into the dark; in all things he acted as a rational being except in the one ghastly,
			guilty deed of embracing death in order to escape the clutches of a sheriff's officer.
			'From all that it is possible to learn, we may infer that Sir Thomas wandered about the estat
			which was so encumbered for hours before he rushed down [to] the black water by the weir.
			We must assume, also, that he drugged himself before leaping into the stream, because he
			was an admirable swimmer, and the common report went so far as to declare that he could
			not drown himself if he felt inclined. However, there he floated in mid-river on Wednesday
			morning, with foam upon his lips and nhis lungs still warm, so that hours must have elapsed
			between his mad exit from the house at Golden Hills and the struggling rush into the weedy
			Suir.'
