This Is My GlasgowMcCrae went on to become the governor of Madras for the East India Company. When he resigned this post in 1730, he returned to Britain, and eventually settled in Ayr. Around this time, he donated an Equestrian Statue of King William III to the city of Glasgow, which now stands in Cathedral Square, just a short distance from Archbishop Law's memorial where this story started.

As it's International Talk Like A Pirate Day today, it's a good time to explore where the skull-and-crossbones flag we now associate with pirates originated, and how this links to Glasgow.
This photo shows part of a memorial in Glasgow Cathedral for James Law, the city's archbishop between 1615 and 1632. So why does an archbishop's memorial have what we now consider a pirate symbol on it?

Beloved Miss Tippie 🐈 began her short journey to the rainbow 🌈 bridge 🌉 at 0400 this morning. She passed peacefully after a last day of nausea and weakness, but apparently with little other suffering, wrapped in the arms of her dearest, my 7 year old granddaughter who is celebrating her birthday today. Tough way to begin one's birthday! 💔 Tippie lived with us for just 9 months, tiny old girl, but quickly won our hearts 💕. #CatsOfMastodon #cats #MomentoMori

Allyson ShawA proper #MomentoMori from #Peterhead in #Aberdeenshire #Scotland for #TombTuesday #hauntology When I first moved to London twenty years ago, people told me the skull and crossbones on pirate ships were ‘from’ the skull & cross bones near Christopher Marlowe’s unmarked grave in Deptford. Scotland’s kirkyards are chock full of these beautiful skulls & crossbones. Maybe that’s the origin? 🏴☠️
Perhaps unusually for a Scottish archbishop of his time, was not a staunch Calvinist, and in his early days he got into trouble for playing football on a Sunday, along with his friend John Spottiswoode, who also went on to become an Archbishop of Glasgow. This religious affiliation may explain why he has such an ornate and colourful monument, in contrast to many of the others in the city's cathedral.
