The story

Mr Martin, the accountant for a Scottish Tweed weaving company, is in Edinburgh buying whisky and cigarettes on the Royal Mile.

MacPherson offers him a whisky but Martin declines, so MacPherson drinks for the two and promptly dies.

She plans to replace the 700 weavers, dotted across the islands, with a single large factory.
