I pass over the parting between the mother and her boy.

With his flute in his pocket, with no other wealth except a few

shillings and his Bible, Kenneth McAlpine turned his back on the glen,

and went away out into the wide, wide world to seek his fortune.

For years, if not for ever, he bade farewell to his Highland home and

all he held so dear.
