An atrocity which the Clan Gregor committed in 1589, by the murder of John Drummond of drummond-ernoch, a forester of the re forest of Glenartney, is elsewhere given, with all its herri circumstances. The clan swore u n the severed head of the murdered man that they won] make common cause in avowing the deed. This led to an Act of the Privy Council, directing another crusade against the 'wicked Clan Gregor, so long continuing in blood, slaughter, theft, and robbery, ' in which letters of fire and sword are denounced against them for the space of three years. The reader will find this rticular fact illustrated in the Introduction to A Legend 0 filmtrose, in the present edition of these Novels.
