Additional information

A Younger Humanist Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities afforded me the opportunity to write this paper. I wish also to thank Mr. Colin A. McLaren of the University Library, King's College, Aberdeen, who allowed me access to Reid's unpublished manuscripts, and Dr. George E. Davie, who kindly brought to my attention several deficiencies in an earlier version of the paper.
