Old Photograph Earl Haig Statue Edinburgh Scotland

Old photograph of the Earl Haig statue outside Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh, Scotland. Field Marshal Douglas Haig, 1st Earl Haig, born 19 June 1861, died 29 January 1928, was a British senior officer during the First World War. He commanded the British Expeditionary Force from 1915 to the end of the war. The statue was gifted to the city in 1923 by Sir Dhunjibhoy Bomanji, a wealthy Bombay shipping magnate, who was keen to be seen as being very supportive of the British. The inscription on the statue reads: " Earl Haig: This statue was presented to the City of Edinburgh by Sir Dhunjibhoy Bomanji of Bombay in admiration of the services rendered to the British Empire by the Field Marshal. " The statue has been relocated inside the castle itself.

Old Photograph George Watson's College Edinburgh Scotland

Old photograph of pupils outside George Watson's College in Edinburgh, Scotland. The school was established according to the instructions of George Watson, born 1654, died 1723, who bequeathed the bulk of his fortune to found a school for the provision of post primary boarding education. The school opened as George Watson's Hospital on Whitsunday, 17 May 1741. The initial roll consisted of 11 boys, aged 9 to 10 years; by 1749 there were 30. By 1749 there were 30, while in 1842 pupils numbered 86. In 1869, the original hospital building was sold to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. When the infirmary sought to expand in 1871, the school moved a short distance west to the former Merchant Maiden Hospital building in Archibald Place.
