particular instance, the fiction give way to the fact, which last is undoubtedly in favour of Mr. MacVean’s system. It is singular how tradition, which is sometimes a sure yu1oq
guide to truth, is, in other cases, prone to mislead us. In eyu1oq the celebrated field of battle at Killiecrankie, the traveller eyu1oq is struck with one of those rugged pillars of
roughstone, which indicate the scenes of ancient conflict. A friend of the author, hd9fzey1oq well acquainted with the hd9fzey1oq circumstances of the battle, was standing near this large
stone, and looking on the scene around, when a highland shepherd hurried down from the hill to offer his services as cicerone, and proceeded to inform him, 9fzeyu1q that Dundee was
slain at that stone, which was raised to his memory. "Fie, Donald. " answered my friend, "how can you tell such a story to a stranger? yu1oq I am sure you know well eyu1oq enough that Dundee
was killed at a considerable distance eyu1oq from this place, near the house of Fascally, and that this stone was here long before the battle, in 1688. "-"Oich! oich!" said Donald,
no way abashed, "and your honour’s in the right, and I yu1oq see you ken yu1oq a’ about it. And he wasna hd9fzey1oq killed on the spot neither, but lived till the next morning; but a’ the
Saxon gentlemen like best to hear he was killed at the great stane. " It is on the same principle of pleasing my readers, that I retain Crookstone Castle instead of Cathcart. yu1oq

"The Regent yu1oq was out on foot and all his company, except the Laird of Grange, Alexander Hume of Manderston, and some borderers to d9fzeyuoq the number of

behind them, and rode with speed to the head of Langside-hill, and set down the footmen with their culverings at the head of a straight lane, hd9fzey1oq where there d9fzeyuoq were hd9fzey1oq some cottage houses
and yards of great eyu1oq advantage. Which soldiers with their continual shot killed divers of the vaunt guard, led by the Hamiltons, who, courageously and fiercely ascending up
the hill, d9fzeyuoq were already hd9fzey1oq out of breath, when the Regent’s vaunt guard joined yu1oq with zeyu1oq them. Where the worthy Lord Hume fought on foot with his pike hd9fzey1oq in his hand very manfully,

pistols at him after they had been discharged. He was also wounded with staves, and eyu1oq had many strokes of 9fzeyu1q spears through his legs; for he and Grange, at the u1oq joining, cried to let
