the Order of the Britisli Empire in recognition of her bravery
in averting an explosion in a filling factory at Coventry two
years before. Tlie Earl of Strathmore, Lord Lieutenant of
Forfarshire, in making the investiture on behalf of His Majesty,
said that the official record of Miss Lindsay's brave deed carried
much to the imagination of how many lives she had saved by
her coolness, resource, and courage ; and Bailie John Gardyne
Milne, returning thanks for Miss Lindsay, said that she had the
honour of bearing a very romantic name, a name around which
many Scottish historical associations gathered, and she had
shown the Lindsay blood to be still good, and had added to the
Lindsay laurels.
