He retired to Edinburgh in 1931, where after some years of well-earned leisure he died in June 1940 at the age of seventy-nine years. Dr. Morrison was a skilful performer and judge of pipe music. He came into possession of a very old manuscript of MacCrimmon tunes, which he presented to the nation and is now deposited in the Nations Library in Edinburgh. He was a Gaelic and an English poet of no mean order, and after his death a volume of his compositions, under the editorial care of the late Rev. Neil Ross, D.D., of Laggan, was published. The daughters of this family were: (1) Mary Stewart, who married the Rev. Donald MacFarlane who, in 1893, was the principal founder of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland; (2) Jane; (3) Jessie; (4) Marion; (5) Flora Margaret MacLeod. These four daughters died unmarried.
