A similar portrait hangs at Douglas Castle. He died only three months later. The present portrait belonged to James Veitch, an influential judge and a popular member of Edinburgh legal circles. He had close connections with the 3rd Duke of Queensberry, who in 1755 brought him in as an M.P. for Dumfriesshire, which was a constituency dominated by the Queensberry family.
