In this intriguing photograph from the past, we encounter the enigmatic figure of Thomas Neil, a precentor in Edinburgh's social scene, circa 1790. Precentors were responsible for leading the congregation in prayer and chanting during religious services, but Thomas Neil was known for much more than just his religious duties. He was an eccentric character who frequently surprised the citizens of Edinburgh with his unusual attire and unconventional behavior. In this particular instance, Thomas Neil has chosen to dress as an "old wife," a role he may have taken on for a theatrical performance or perhaps simply as a whimsical expression of his individuality. The photograph captures the essence of this fascinating historical figure, who defied the norms of his time and added a touch of mystery and intrigue to Edinburgh's social scene. The details of Thomas Neil's life are not well documented, but this image offers a glimpse into the world of a man who was not afraid to challenge societal expectations and express himself in unique ways.
