ABBOTSFORD — THE HOME OF SIR WALTER SCOTT  

/"\N the banks of the River Tweed, near Melrose, in the Border  

country of Scotland, stands Abbotsford, the mansion house  

built by Walter Scott out of the vast sums of money which he  

earned as an author. By 1820 Abbotsford began to attract pilgrims  

from all over the world; illustrious men like Wordsworth, Crabbe  

and Washington Irving being among those who came to pay homage  

to the great novelist.  

Walter Scott was born in Edinburgh in 1771 and studied law  

at Edinburgh University. He was called to the Bar in 1792 and  

married five years later. He first gained attention as writer in  

1799 after the publication of 'his first book, which was metrical  

translation of Burger’s “Lenore.” Three years later his volume of  

old ballads of the Border country aroused even greater interest.  

“The Lay of the Last Minstrel,” “Marmion” and “The Lady of  

the Lake” followed in quick succession, and these metrical tales had  

an instant and wide success, and the writer began acquiring  

considerable wealth.  

Scott now began' writing prose; “Waverley” was issued in  

1814, and this was followed by many such works, prominent among  

them being “Guy Mannering,” “Ivanhoe” and “Kenilworth.” The  

author was created baronet in 1820 and elected president of the  

Royal Society of Scotland.  

It seemed now that Scott would end his days in prosperity,  

but unfortunately the publishing firm of Ballantyne, in which he  

had invested his capital, was declared bankrupt, and the novelist  

found himself responsible for vast sum of money.  

Declining many offers of financial help, Scott set himself to  

clear off the debt by writing further novels at amazing speed. His  

health, however, began to fail, and after short trip to the Con-  

tinent he returned to his home in Abbotsford, where he died on  

21st September, 1832, and was buried at Dryburgh. The house is  

open to the public, and is throughout intimately associated with its  

creator.
