This is a Scots story, in which MacDonald’s brilliant brother, John (died 1858), who figures in “Robert Falconer” where his poems are given, as Eric Ericsen, appears as Ian, one of the two brothers who dominate “What’s mine’s mine.” One of John’s letters from Moscow is reproduced bodily in the novel, and Dr. Greville MacDonald strongly suspects that the sonnet (in vol. II., p. 94) is his.
