He was originally from Dunlop, and bred a mason; but, during many of the latter years of his life, he wandered about as a common beg. gar. Stevenson was much afflicted, during the last two years of his life, with the stone. As his disease increased, he was fully aware of his approaching dissolution, and for this event he made the following extraordinary preparation :-He sent for a baker, and ordered twelve dozen of burial cakes, and a great profusion of sugar biscuits, together with a corresponding quantity of wine and spirituous liquors. He told the baker, that if this quantity was not sufficient, he should provide more, as nothing but whole cakes were to be served about at his funeral. He next sent for the joiner, and ordered a coffin decently mounted, with particular instructions that the wood should be quite dry, and the joints firm, and impervious to water. The gravedigger was next sent for, whom he enjoined to make his grave roomy, and in a dry comforable corner; and he might rest assured that he would be well rewarded for his care and trouble. Having made these arrangements, in a few hours afterwards, in the full exercise of his mental powers, but in the most excruciating agonies, he expired. A neighbour, and a man of business, were immediately sent for to examine and seal up his effects. The first thing they found was a bag, containing large silver pieces, such as crowns, halfcrowns, and dollars, to a large amount. In a corner was secreted, amongst a vast quantity of musty rags, a great number of guineas, and seven shilling pieces. In his trunk was found a bond for L. 300, and other bonds and securities to a very considerable amount. In all, the property amounted to L. 900.
