fact meets fiction!
'The Cairn Edward Kirk Militant' is from 'Bog Myrtle and Peat' Volume 15 of The Galloway Collection (first published 1895 ) and gives a picture of Castle Douglas (fictionalised as Cairn Edward) 100 or more years ago. I wonder, is the 'dummy' still in the shop window on the High Street?
Apologies for the somewhat 'wandering' attempts at Gallovidian dialect - any native who would like to do some readings would be welcomed to give some added authenticity to what is a difficult and quite unique 'accent'.
