The only Ayrshire Millars are;

MILLAR, Alexander Stoddart (Sen.), J.P.,  20 Manse Street, Saltcoats, Ayrshire. He's the director of Saltcoats Mission Coast Home.
The other Millar is his son, (also Alexander Stoddart) (Jun.), M.C. & of the same address.

Hi, there are no Mutrie's in the book. There's only one Urie mentioned -

URIE,John,O.B.E., J.P., C.A.  17 Winton Drive,Glasgow, W.2.  b.1874, Paisley. s. of late Rev. Urie. ed. Bellahouston Academy. m.1904, Jessie Thomson, d. of late Robert Morgan; 2s., 1d. Chairman,City Bakeries Ltd., and associated companies; Deacon, Incorporation of Bakers; Member, Trades House of Glasgow; J.P., Glasgow.  Recreations: GOLF (Capt., Western Gailes Club), travel.

I have n't come across the Mutrie surname before. Where does it originate from?
