Excerpt from Songs From Border Streams
Then ho for the Tweed, Where the waters SO brown, Swirl down through the moors And past grim castles hoary Where the lark's song is free, And pale primroses crown Silent glen and lone lea, With rare gems from Spring's dow'ry.
Let winter games rest - every sport has its spell, Take down from the rack favourite rod of wood mellow Strap up the Old creel that blithe stories could tell.

Excerpt from Songs From Border Streams
Some of the following Songs may recall old scenes; others may recall old friends; and both together, may recall happy outings of by-past years, by glen and river, when scenery, sport, and friends, composed a picture never to be forgotten.
The Songs come from as many sources as the streams of which they sing, and sincere thanks are profferred to the Scotsman, Weekly Scotsman, Dispatch, Southern Reporter, and Border Magazine, for allowing such pieces as appeared in their columns to be reproduced here.
The Illustrations by Messrs M. & T. Scott, Edinburgh, are from original photographs by Mr Charles Fraser, Melrose; Mr Mathews, Oldham; and Rev. J. H. Ferguson, M.A., who kindly placed them at our disposal.
