Abstract:: This volume was given to Margaret W. D. Campbell in remembrance of T. C. in 1833. It is unclear what relationship Margaret had with T. or who gifted the volume. The volume consists of a decade's worth of contributions of poems, drawings, songs, and a dictionary of floral emblems by a number of people probably living in the Glasgow area of Scotland. Topics of contributions relate, primarily, to death and mourning, Scotland, music, and flowers.
