He made his first known appearance on Saturday, 3rd September, 1887, in a 10-0 win at home to Westbourne in the Scottish Cup. That day, Jim achieved the rare feat of scoring a hat-trick on his debut! He scored the last of his 11 known goals on Tuesday, 3rd January, 1888, in a 4-2 friendly win away to Sunderland. He played his last known game for the club on Saturday, 5th May, 1888, in a 6-2 friendly defeat away to St Bernard's, having appeared for the Thistle on at least 32 occasions. His club-list included Rangers, Partick Thistle, Kilsyth Wanderers and Hamilton Academical. We don't know where or when Jim died. *
