Wilson's Tales of the Borders and of Scotland, Volume XXIV.
Publisher Description
There is no class of men to whom the memory turns with more complacency, or more frequently, than to those who "taught the young idea how to shoot". There may be a few tyrants of the birch, who never inspired a feeling save fear or hatred; yet their number is but few, and I would say that the schoolmaster is abroad in more senses than that in which it is popularly applied.
