Farquharson on Auroræ

Your correspondant L. inquires about Mr. Farquharson, *shepherd* or *minister* of Alford. Whether the word translated *shepherd* be *pasteur* or not, I cannot say, as I have not either of the works he alludes to; but certain it is that the Rev. Mr. Farquharson, *minister* of Alford, only recently deceased, was well known as a meteorological observer; and it is to him, doubtless, that Professor Kœnitz refers. The "other Protestant minister, Mr. James Paull, at Tullynessle," now Dr. Paull, is still in life.
