[edit] Summary
James Cunninghame, 14th. Earl of Glencairn. He was a great supporter of Burns, having been introduced to his poetry by his estate factor at Finlaystone. He introduced Burns's work to his friends and associates and was instrumental in ensuring the printing of a second edition of his poems. These were sold to subscribers through the Earl's influence at a guinea, four times the normal price. He died young and Burns wrote his beautiful 'Lament for James Earl of Glencairn' as his tribute.
