Sorn
Taking the River Ayr Walk eastward from Daldorch School takes us to the small village of Sorn. Sorn doesnt have much but does have a great wee pub and is a nice place for a stop in summer, a regular winner of 'Britain in Bloom', but it has a less serene and peaceful past being the birthplace of covenanter Alexander Peden. Peden was a leading covenanter travelling far and wide to spread his gospel and was always on the run so took to wearing a cloth mask and wig, now on display at Edinburgh's Museum of Scotland (right). Captured by Claverhouse in 1673 he spent 4 years in jail on Bass Rock, a year in Edinburgh Tollbooth and finally, with 60 other Presbyterians, was transported to America. However the American captain of the ship, when he heard of the reason for the banishment, released them. Peden returned to Ballochmyle where he spent the rest of his life in hiding between Ayrshire and Ulster, finally dying in 1686 while living in a cave on his brother's farm.
The mask quoted is at present in the North Museum, Dick Institute in Kilmarnock till the middle of September. It would give anybody a fright. If you had seen that in the middle of the night you would have sh*t yourself;
