James Buchanan in Dean Cemetery, Edinburgh

Buchanan died in 1857, leaving £30,000 for " the maintenance and instruction of destitute children ".

The resulting Buchanan Institute on Glasgow Green was where generations of poor children from the city's east end learned a trade, such as tailoring, shoe making or carpentry.
