To THE EDITOR OF THE INVERNESS COURIER.
Sin
nAVING been informed that Mackintosh has re-
quested to be addressed in future as Chief of the Clan
Chattan, I have been called upon by some of my Clan, and advised
to state (for the information of those who are not conversant with
the history of the Clan) that I am the Lineal Descendant in the
Male Line of the Chiefs of the Clan Chattan, and consequently
oln the Chief. I beg further to add, that I do not intend -to
enter into any newspaper controversy, in consequence of this an-
nuuncement.—l have the honour to be Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
EWEN MACPHERSON,
Chief of the Clan Chattan.

Cluny Castle, 14th March, 1836.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE INVERNESS COURIER.
Moy Hall, 30th March, 1836.
your paper of the 16th current, I read a letter
I of Mr. Mac..herson, of Cluny, " a Cadent of the Mackintosh,"
,etting forth his lineal pretensions and assumed right to the title of
" Chief ef Clan Chattan." In common with every person at all
versant in matters of feudal times, this vaunting and emptyassump-
tion must carry with it no more weight or credit than the time oc-
cupied in reading it.
Cluny sets out by stating that he understands I have requested
those persons who address me, to affix the title of " Chief of Clan
Chattan." This is rather strange, as I have never made any such
request ; and I aow aver most distinctly that such a piece of vanity
never entered my mind.
I itm aware of the annoyance it affords to some of Cluny's C'an,
my continuing the title in ctsmmen with my ancestors, since 1291.
The Macphersons, by several acts, have acknowledged Mackin-
tosh as the Chief of Clan Chattan ; added to this, the confirmatory
acts of numerous gentlemen, somewhat more versant than the sa-
pient advisers of Cluny, have always acknowledged "Mackintosh"
the undoubted Chief of Clan Chattan."
Air. Macpherson of Cluny's letter is admirable for its brevity and
suddenness of assumption of the title, which he is as little able to
rvport by either legendiary, historical, or private individual know-
e7,, as any questionable matter that ever appeared in the columns
°' a newspaper. I ask Cluny when, since 1291, he has seen or
known the Mackintosh, or any one of the 16 tribes comprising the
Clan Chattan, acknowledge the Chief of the Macphersons as their
undoubted Chief ?
Have the goodness to give insertion to a transcript of the follow-
mg document ; it is authentic, and may be read by Cluny and
3°Tne of his Clan," with a relish for a more perfect knowledge of
title they at present seem ignorant of

" Why are you wand'ring here, I pray ?"
An old man ask'd a maid, one day,

"Tell me again," the old man said, • •
" Why are you wand'ring her. 2 fair maid ?"
Said she, " I've rambled all about ;
