A rare memento of a trip to Scotland in 1829 - two pieces of Scottish Heather now in a bird's eye maple frame.  The inscription reads, "This beautiful piece of Heather was gathered from Ben-More, in Mull, one of the Western Islands of Scotland, by G.A.M. in September 1829. This Mountain rises nearly 3000 feet above the level of the sea."  Origin: Scotland. Dated 1829.
