Comments
When Alexander Campbell visited Glasgow in 1847, he walked across the Bridge of Sighs to spend most of the morning of September 6 walking among the funerary monuments of the Necropolis, which had been developed on the hill since he had lived in Glasgow as a student. (Richardson, vol.2, p. 557)
