 Dr William Farquharson attended him and visited him for two months as he recovered, describing him as "deranged", but seemingly gaining some degree of friendship or empathy.In the summer of 1790 Kinloch left Gilmerton House in the middle of the night and travelled to Greenock on the west coast of Scotland to track down his friend, Major MacKay, who was much surprised to see him.In October 1790 he is again in London but invites a friend (Cpt Miller) to join him in a hotel on the Oxford Road but is not there.
