Excerpt from The Poetical Works of James Thomson, Vol. 1
From Jedburgh young Thomson was, in March, 1715, sent to the University of Edinburgh, being intended for the Church but, before he had been three years there, he lost his father, who died so suddenly that he did not see him before his decease. His widowed mother, who was left with nine children slenderly provided for, was advised to remove to Edinburgh, where she remained, living in an economical manner, until her son James had completed his studies.
