ABERDEEN, _March 14, 1637_.

CLIII.--_To_ BETHAIA AIRD.

[The name _Aird_ is not uncommon in the history of the Church. _Mr. Wm. Aird_ was a noted minister in Edinburgh in Livingstone's days. Wodrow's "History" mentions _Aird of Muirkirk_, and also _John Aird_ of Milton. In the memoir of Walter Pringle of Greenknow, we find _James Aird_ was his intimate friend. But whether this correspondent was related to any of them, we know not. She may have been simply an Anwoth parishioner.]
