Charles John Guthrie, Lord Guthrie

By 1860 the family had moved to 1 Salisbury Road, a large villa in south Edinburgh.

Guthrie made prejudicial and pejorative comments during his summing up, leading to Scotland’s worst ever miscarriage of justice.

From 1910 to 1919, he was President of the Boys' Brigade of Great Britain and Ireland, and was a member of various antiquarian societies.

[6] Lord Guthrie died at his home, 13 Royal Circus in Edinburgh,[7] on 28 April 1920.

He is buried in the north-west corner of the north section of Dean Cemetery.
