FILLAN'S-ST, a village, in the parish of Comrie,
county of Perth; containing 172 inhabitants. It is a
beautiful and romantic place, situated on the north side
of Loch Earn, and consists of a number of well-built
houses, rendered of pleasing appearance by shrubberies
in front. Here was established some years since the St.
Fillan's Society, which holds annual meetings for the
encouragement of Highland games and dress. A school
is supported by Lord Willoughby de Eresby, who allows
the teacher a salary of £20, and a dwelling-house and
garden. On the summit of Duu-Fillan hill is a rock
known as St. Fillan's Chair, and two small cavities are
said to have been made by the saint, the impression of
his knees from his constant habit of prayer.
