The House of Dun, c.1720-c.1750 : inception, development and realisation
No full textThe House of Dun (near Montrose) was built to designs by William
Adam (1689-1748) for David Erskine, Lord Dun (1673-1758), a judge of
the court of session. The history of its inception is complex and
intriguing. First proposals for the house were drawn up by
Alexander McGill (d.1734) in January 1723. These were sent for the
appraisal of Lord Dun's cousin, the exiled Jacobite John Erskine,
Earl of Mar (1675-1732), an amateur architect of considerable
ability. Mar provided counter-proposals for a house on a square
plan dated Paris, April 1723, and a scheme for an elaborate formal
garden. Neither McGill's nor Mar's designs were realised.
William Adam subsequently provided two designs (both
illustrated in Vitruvius Scoticus) for the house, the second of
which was realised. Although the house has a datestone which bears
“1730", documentary evidence suggests that Adam's final plan was
arrived at after his earlier version had been ammended by Mar in
1731. The resulting design is the product of a symbiotic exchange
of ideas in which Adam developed the triumphal arch motif for the
main facade of the house first suggested by Mar in 1723 and again in
1731.
The various schemes are documented in the form of both
monograph reports, and in Mar's case, several original drawings.
The main sources for these are the Erskine of Dun MSS at the
Scottish Record Office, Edinburgh: GD 123, and West Register House
for Mar's drawings plus one letter (RHP 13256-8, 13288/1-8 and
13289). Notable for its plasterwork by Joseph Enzer (d.1743),
several accounts for the fitting-up of the house survive, as well as
unattributed pencil sketches for a house based on Mar's design of
1723, and a plan for a formal garden. The dissertation makes
extensive use of these sources to examine the history of the
inception of the house and the contemporary garden, which may carry
with it, important implications about the associative work of Mar
and McGill pre-1715 and the emergence of William Adam as the most
notable architect of the post-Bruce generation in Scotland
An epidemiologic study of trends in prevalence of rheumatoid factor seropositivity in Pima Indians - Evidence of a decline due to both secular and birth-cohort influences
No full textObjective. Previous population studies have suggested that both rheumatoid factor (RF) production and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may be declining in occurrence, and. both secular and birth-cohort influences have been implicated. Since Pima Indians have a very high incidence of RA and also have shown recent evidence or a decline in RA, this study evaluated the relative contributions of age, secular, and birth-cohort influences on RF seropositivity in the Pima Indian population. Methods. RF data, as assayed by both the bentonite flocculation test (BFT) and the sheep cell agglutination test (SCAT), were available on 5,345 Pima Indians born between 1886 and 1975, who were surveyed at biennial intervals between 1966 and 1995. An age-period-cohort analysis was conducted using data on 18,295 examinations undertaken during the period of study. Results. There was a decline in the proportion of positive test results for RF (titer greater than or equal to1:32) by both BFT and SCAT, in both male and female subjects from 1966-1975 to the later decades of the study (1976-1985 and 1986-1995). Across all periods, by both assays, the crude proportion of positive titers increased with increasing age of the subjects. There was a very clear birth-cohort effect: the highest likelihood of seropositivity was in those individuals born around the end of the nineteenth century, with continuing decline in seropositivity up to the most recent birth cohort. A logistic regression analysis, adjusting for Pima heritage and sex, demonstrated a substantially greater influence of birth cohort than of calendar year on the frequency of RF positivity. Conclusion. In the Pima Indian population, environmental influences in early life are important predictors of the lifelong likelihood of RF positivity. This may have implications for understanding the epidemiology and etiology of RA
