Hello, I'm looking for help deciphering the profession and place of death for William Hogg. This is the word after his name (Hogg) and the column left of "Bowel Complication". I've attached the file for assistance. Thank you!

Fife / Re: Seeking Information on HOG(G) ALLOA (ALLAN) In Kingbarns Fife

Thank you for the information. From a historic perspective, how/why would someone from Kingbarns meet up with someone from Edinburgh and have a connection to Preston Mill? It seems rather far for casual travel given the time period. Did something happen in Scotland during this time similar to the "Year without a Summer" around 1815? Any other clues I can follow? Thank you again!!
