'''COUNTESS OF LOUDEN('S REEL)'''. AKA and see "The Blackthorn Stick [4]," "The Countess of Lothean's Reel," "The Irishman's Blackthorn Stick," "Mahon's Reel," "The Rising Sun [2]." Scottish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Lerwick): AB (Cole). Nigel Gatherer finds this tune in Airds '''Selections''' (1782) and remarks that it has similarities with "Kitty Clyde's." Irish versions are numerous, see the "Jolly Clamdigger"/"Blackthorn Stick [4]" family of tunes. The Countess of Loudoun was Flora Mure Campbell (1780-1840), only child and daughter of Major-General James Mure Campbell and Flora MacLeod (daughter of MacLeod of Raasay), who in 1804 married the Earl of Moira (created Marquis of Hastings in 1816). She came into her inheritance at age six after the suicide of her father, and was entrusted into the care of the earl and countess of Dumfries, with who she remained until the earl's death in 1803. Other accounts (Chambers and Wallace (Life and Works of Robert Burns, 1896, pg. 137) have Flora being raised by her aunts, the Misses MacLeod (sisters of MacLeod of Raasay). She later extended Loudon Castle into one of the stateliest manors in Ayrshire. Her husband, the Marquis, was an eminent statesman and held for some years the office of Governor-General of British India. Flora went with him. She was known as a gracious and intelligent woman, notable for her respect for Indians and those of mixed-blood. She found a school for Indian boys and some Eurasian and European girls at Barrackpore. There three languages from textbooks that she not only selected, but translated into Hindustani and Bengali. He later became the governor and commander-in-chief of the strategic British-held Island of Malta in the Mediterranean and died there in 1836. The Marquis had promised his wife that they should lie in the same grave, and, although the state of mortuary arts and the Mediterranean heat did not permit that at the time of his death, he compromised with the direction that his right hand be amputated upon his death and sent home, that it might be buried with the Marchioness. This was done and the appendage was deposited in the family vault in Loudoun Kirk. When the Marchioness died at Kelburn House, Ayrshire (the seat of the Earl of Glasgow), in 1840, it was laid in the grave beside her body. See also "Lady Flora Charlotte Hastings" for another tune written for her.
