Charles John Guthrie, Lord Guthrie (1849-1920) was a Scottish judge and lawyer. Born at 2 Lauriston Lane in Edinburgh, the son of Rev Thomas Guthrie, a major figure in Scottish church history. Educated at Edinburgh Academy and Edinburgh University. In 1875, was admitted to the Faculty of Advocates. From 1881 to 1900, he was legal adviser to the Church of Scotland, and in 1897, became a Q. C. From 1900 to 1907 he served as Sheriff of Ross and Cromarty. In 1907, he was appointed a Senator of the College of Justice. In 1909, he presided over the trial of Oscar Slater. Guthrie made prejudicial and pejorative comments during his summing up, leading to Scotlands worst ever miscarriage of justice. Slater was released and pardoned 20 years later. AUTHOR: James Pittendrigh MacGillivray (1856 -1938) was a Scottish sculptor, keen artist, musician and poet. Born in Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, the son of a sculptor, he studied under William Brodie and John Mossman. His works include public statues of Robert Burns in Irvine, Lord Byron in Aberdeen, the 3rd Marquess of Bute in Cardiff, John Knox in Edinburghs St Giles Cathedral, and William Ewart Gladstone in Coates Crescent Gardens, Edinburgh. He was appointed the Kings Sculptor in Ordinary for Scotland in 1921. MacGillivray also published two volumes of poetry Pro Patria in 1915 and Bog Myrtle and Peat Reek in 1922.
