Carfrae, The Rev Patrick (1742 — 1822)
Educated at Edinburgh University, he was ordained minister of Morham in 1766, and translated to Dunbar in 1795 in which year he received the degree of Doctor of Divinity. He remained in Dunbar until he retired in 1820. He wrote the account of Morham in Sir John Sinclair's Satirical Account of Scotland and took a leading part in preparing for the press James Mylne's Poems, consisting of Miscellaneous Pieces and Two Tragedies, about which he exchanged letters with Burns (see Mylne, James). Morham was the parish in which Mrs Dunlop lived. Because of his habit of preaching from manuscripts, Mr Carfrae was nicknamed 'Paper Pate'.
