Synopsis

This I have learnt two William Marshall minuets from volumes 1 and 2 of his collections. The first minuet is called Mr Hoy - Gordon Castle and the second is Chapel Keithack. Mr Hoy (born 1747) is mentioned in Dr Currie's memoir of poet Robert Burns where he says that "Mr James Hoy was librarian to his Grace The Duke of Gordon at Gordon Castle. He was in many respects a singular and original character... with goodness in heart, and simplicity of manners."
