H L 1731 Note: The coffin contains the remains of Hugh Campbell, the 3rd Earl of Loudoun, who was Secretary of State in Scotland and Keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland. The body was originally encased in glass, but this was thought distasteful, so it was replaced by the lead coffin. The coffin is embelished with a coronet at the top, and the family coat of arms. |
