George Wishart - Dundee (1545)
Under the protection of the Earls of Cassilis and Glencairn, and others, Wishart had preached in Ayrshire for about four weeks when he was recalled to Dundee. A plague had broken out there four days after his departure. His leaving from Kyle grieved many who had become attached to his ministry. He returned to Dundee and preached from the East Port Gate to those who were sick outside the wall and to those who were healthy inside. He frequently preached and ministered to the sick.
