At one point during out stay at Dunleith, my eldest nephew called me to one of the front windows. He had something really cool to show me, he said.
And so it was. There, etched on the thick glass were initials, the story of which I am happy to retell here. It seems the daughters of the house each, upon becoming engaged, scratched their initials in the glass using the diamonds in their engagement rings.
They remain now, as part of the charming history of this charming house. I am glad to have been told the story and shown the initials.
I tried to capture a good picture of them by focusing them against the white column outside. Hopefully you can make out their form.
