By William Meredith Morris

He worked in Great Hamilton Street, where he had a violin shop, and where he made a large number of instruments, some fairly good, but most of rather under average merit. The little of his work that I have seen was of a very indifferent character. Morrison appears to have been a far better player than maker, and his shop was the rendezvous of fiddle enthusiasts and players, who were known in Glasgow as " Morrison's Band."
