Hood, Thomas
Accompanied Burns and Ker into England, on the Border tour, after the poet had parted from Ainslie, who returned to Edinburgh. Burns described Ker and Hood in a letter to Ainslie from Newcastle, 29th May 1787: 'Old Mr Tho Hood has been persuaded to join or Partie, and Mr Kerr and he do very well, but alas! I dare not talk nonsense lest I lose all the little dignity I have among the sober sons of wisdom and discretion, and I have not had one hearty mouthful of laughter since that merry melancholy moment we parted.
