Numerous authors, following Colonel Leslie's Family of Leslie (Vol. III., pp. 412-13), give the date of Sir Patrick's death as 1660, but the following inscription from a tablestone at King-Edward shows that he survived till 16th February, 1674 -

UNDER THE HOPE OF A BLESSED RESURRECTION HERE LYIS SIR PATRICK LESLIE OP EDIN, WHO DEPA, FEB. 16, 1674.

AND DAME ISOBEL CHAINE, HIS LADYE, WHO DEP., 30 APRIL, 1666. P. L. I. L.

The stone lies level with the grass, and has in the centre two large plain shields which had doubtless been intended for the Leslie and Cheyne arms. The one shield i? flanked by the initials S. P. L., for Sir Patrick Leslie, and the other has the initials D. I. C, for Dame Isobel Cheyne, his second wife. The arms, however, have not beeen cut."
