Captain George Johnstone (1730-1787)A half-length portrait to left in captain's uniform. Although bald, Johnstone does not wear a wig. He appears to be gesturing with his right finger on his left thumb. This is from an original portrait by Henry Raeburn which was painted 1768-74 and also an enlargement from a miniature of the Henry Raeburn by John Bogle. In 1747 Johnstone reportedly duelled with Captain Cruikshank and wounded him. Ten years later he killed the captain's clerk in a duel and was courtsmartialled for insubordination. In 1763 he was appointed governor of West Florida. He returned home in 1768 and went into Parliament '˜where his total want of fear and his adroitness with a pistol made him a useful addition to his party.' After 19 years ashore he was given command of a small expedition against the Cape of Good Hope.Captain George Johnstone (1730-1787)
