Along the sea of Solway, romantic on the Scottish side, with its woodlands, its bays, its cliffs and headlands - and interesting on the English side, with its many beautiful towns with their shadows on the water, rich pastures, safe harbors, and numerous ships - there still linger many traditional stories of a maritime nature, most of them connected with superstitions singularly wild and unusual.
Allan Cunningham, born December 7, 1784, Keir, Dumfriesshire, Scotland and died October 30, 1842, London, England; was a Scottish poet, a member of the brilliant circle of writers that included Thomas De Quincey, Charles Lamb, William Hazlitt, John Keats, and Thomas Hood, who were contributors to the London Magazine in its heyday in the early 1820s.
