PATERSON, ROBERT (1715-1801) , Scottish stone-
mason
 , who suggested to Sir Walter Scott the
character
  of " Old Mortality," was born near Hawick in 1715. Through the patronage of Sir
Thomas
  Kirkpatrick, whose cook he had married, heobtained the lease of a quarry at Gatelawbrig, but in 1745 his
house
  was plundered by the retreating Jacobites, and Paterson himself, a pronounced Cameronian, was carried off a prisoner. He subsequently devoted his
life
  to cutting and erecting stones for the
graves
  of the
Covenanters
 , for 4o years wandering from place to place in the lowlands. He died in poverty in 18o1, and a stone to his memory was erected by Scott's publishers in 1869 in Caerlaverock churchyard.
