KEITH , a police
burgh
  of Banffshire, Scotland, on the Isla, 534 M. N.W. of Aberdeen by the Great North of Scotland rail-way. Pop. (1901), 4753 A branch of the Highland railway also gives access to Elgin, and there is a line to Buckie and Portessie on the Moray Firth. The
burgh
  includes Old Keith and New Keithon the
east
  bank of the Isla, and Fife-Keith on the west bank. Though Old Keith has a charter dating from William the Lion it fell into
gradual
  decay; New Keith, founded in the 18th century by the second
earl
  of Seafield, being better situated for the growth of a town. Fife-Keith has sprung up since 1816. The principal public buildings include the
Turner
  memorial
hospital
 
    See Also:
, the Long-. more
hall
 , and the Institute. In the Roman Catholic church there is a painting of the " Incredulity of St Thomas," presented by Charles X. of France. The industries include manufactures of tweeds, blankets, agricultural implements, and boots and shoes; there are also distilleries, breweries, flour mills, and lime and manure works. But the main importance of Keith lies in the fact that it is the centre of the agricultural trade of the shire. The " Summer Eve
Fair
  " held in September is the largest cattle and horse
fair
  in the north of Scotland; the town is also the head-quarters of the dressed-meat trade in the north.
