Obelisk In memory of John Howie (1735-1793) lived at Lochgoin farm, where his family had been tenants for centuries. His forebears were strong Covenanters, and their home was often searched by dragoons. John Howie wrote The Scots Worthies, a detailed history of many of the notable Covenanters and ministers of the period, published in 1775.
