| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | “Memories” by C. F. Gordon Cumming is a memoir written in the early 20th century. It reflects on a Scottish Highland upbringing as the daughter of the Chief of Clan Cumming, interweaving clan history, place, faith, and the author’s formation as a traveler and observer. The narrative revolves around Altyre, Gordonstoun, and allied homes, tracing dense family networks with the Grants, Campbells, and Cornish Penroses. Readers drawn to clan lore, 19th-century domestic life, and the roots of a woman travel-writer’s outlook will find it appealing.<br/><br/>The opening of Memories begins with a brief “Apologia” about the author’s social handicap of failing to recognize acquaintances, then widens into an introductory sketch of the Cummings’ ancient power, their lands, legends, and the setting of Altyre and Gordonstoun. Early chapters outline her purpose to record home-life: a vast web of kinsfolk; the shaping of Altyre’s gardens and woodland paths; the stark tale of Dunphail and “Randolph’s Leap”; and close ties with neighboring estates. She recounts cosmopolitan connections—Italian travels, Highland dress and badges, the romance that brought her parents together abroad—and a gallery of relations led by Lady Charlotte Campbell and the famed Gunning lineage, alongside the family’s strong Episcopal commitments in Forres. The Cornish Penrose inheritance and the stern, storied house of Gordonstoun contrast with flower-laden Altyre, while witty “Moy Aunts” and learned clergy people the scene. Chapter II turns intimate: her mother’s passion for botany and educating gardeners, visits from prominent geologists studying Old Red Sandstone fossils, her mother’s prowess at salmon fishing—and then the mother’s last letters and early death. In its aftermath, the child’s dawn walks with her father, his kindness to tenants, nursery memories, and the oft-told catastrophe of the Moray Floods establish the book’s blend of landscape, family affection, and local history.
