killed scotchmen and go forth TO
battle with some other sandy-haired
men in kits. To the islands of
Rum, Muck, and Egg they went to
attack the MacDonalds. In much
less than day the combined forces
of the Spaniard and the MacLean
had the MacDonalds running and
was besieging Mingary Castle on the
mainland. After a complete victory
had been won they all went back
in triumph TO Tobermory.
The MacLean may have been CRATE
full for the assistance he had re-
ceived, but he did not lose sight of

payment of the money due him. He
sent one of his men. Donald Glas,
aboard the frigate with a message
TO the effect that when the money
was paid he would release his pris-
oners.
But the captain of the vessel de
cided he could show the Scot trick
as crafty as his own. He had his
supplies and he had his gold He
decided he would keep both and
abandon the three Spaniards Ac-
cordingly. he imprisoned Donald
Glas and prepared TO sail. AS the
anchor was weighed Donald man

The Campbells were quiet, it is true,
but at the slightest provOcation they
might march against him. There
fore he wished TO defeat the Mac
Donalds without loss of time.
He proposed to the Spanish com
mander that in return for food and
other necessities which he would
furnish him, he should receive pay
ment partly in gold and partly by
the loan of Spanish soldiers to fight
against his foes. This proposal
suited the Spaniard. He and his
men preferred TO fight rather than
pay out the gold they loved. Fight
ing was their business and their
pastime.

helmets and gay uniforms somewhat

that he might have such a lesson
speedily, as his wants seemed press
ing, he was invited to land and col
lect supplies by the forcible means
he threatened. Sir Lachlan added
that ii was not the custom with the
chief of the MacLeans TO pay ready
attention 10 the requirements of a
threatening beggar. Thereupon, the
foreign commander softened his de-
mand into an offer to pay well in
gold for the food and stores he
needed.
The Scotchman was quite willing
TO trade with the stranger. But
there was something besides money
that he wished. He had incurred
the enmity of the MacDonalds by
playing fast and loose with the
heart Of a daughter OF that clan.

Scot But two men escaped. One of
these was the ships cook, and the
point where he swan ashore is
known today as Cooks Cave"
This is the story the MacLeans
tell. and the one accepted by the
wise men of Londontown.
Far different is the story told by
the Campbells. The wives of Ar
gyll, whose wild Pict blood makes
them particularly partial to TO-
nance, have handed down to their
descendants remarkable history
of the wrecked frigate. They stoutly
affirm their story and boot at the
version given by the MacLeans.
Lord Archibald Campbell has writ
ten book which he calls the Rec
ords of Argyll" In Ii he gives in
detail the Campbell version of the
events that eliminated in the death
Of a princess and the wreck of the
boat that is now at the bottom Of
Tobermory Bay. 1t is a quantity
told story and replete with details
The following extract from 1t is pub
lished without change from the orig
inal text in the Records of Ar
gyll:"
At this time, Spain and England
were at war with one another. The
Princess of Spain has seen vision
or a dream in her sleep one night
at that time, that she came TO love
some gentleman that she never saw
before, and his language she could
not understand, so she ordered one
of her fathers frigates TO get ready
for sea. After she got her frigate
ready for sea, she sailed first on the
coast of Spain and Portugal, coming
along the coast Of Holland, Den
mark, Sweden, and Norway, calling
at every safe anchorage. Her plans
were, at every place she stopped,
that she had dinner on board the
ship. and inviting all the gentlemen
that would be round that district TO
in with the one she saw in her
dream
When she sailed all around the
east country, she sailed through
Il. e, around) the north of Scot
land On her coming from the north
she called in the harbOr of TOber-
mory (Tobarmhoire), in the island
of Null, and she got the dinner
ready there as usual to do in the
rest of the harbors. So she invited
all the gentry on board to the din
ner, and when MacLean entered the
cabin-door, she clasped her hands
around his neck and kissed him. So
she fell in with the gentleman that
she saw in her vision or dream
Then MacLean stopped on board the
ship for several days
Then when Mrs. MacLean came TO
know about this affair. she went from
Quart Castle to Tobermory. taking
one of her servants along with her.
When she arrived there she created
a plan TO set fire TO the ship. The.
plan was that the servant would go
on board the frigate with a message
from her to MacLean, that she want
ed him ashore, and as soon as he
came ashore that the servant would
get to the magazine and set match
to it. So this the servant did. He
got in tow Conversation with the
gunner, and got 10 see the magazine
He left the match in way that he
would be clear OF the ship side in
time TO save himself So all this
the servant did
Then the frigate was blown in
the air, and all hands persisted.
few days after the explosion the re-
mains of the princess were found ON
the shore of Morven. the opposite
side of the Sound of Null. Then

the DOItOm Oh the sea
there are none to
compare with those
entwined about the
wreck of the sixteenth century gal
ley that the ninth Duke of Argyll
is slowly but surely bringing to the
surface of the English Channel
And whether you accept the rec
Ords of the solemn old gentlemen Of
the British Museum who declare the
wrecked vessel to the flagship of the
famous Spanish Armada, or lend an
ear to the romantic tale handed
down by the Argyll family, of
Spanish princess who went to her
death in search of an unknown man
"a man who appeared to her in a
dream and won her love-this much
at least is certain and agreed upon
by both historian and romancer: a
descendant of the famous fighting
Campbells is recovering from the
depths of the English Channel gold
that was sent there three hundred
and fifty years ago by their ancient
enemies, the MacLeans of Argyll
shire.
No half-civilized yarn-spinner of
the middle ages ever told wilder
stories than have come down in the
folklore of the Scottish Highlanders
about this Spanish frigate. Fasci-
mating fairy tales obscure the history
of her fate more thoroughly than
the sands of Scotland's coast have
covered her battered hulk
But the mystery is to be cleared
up and money owed by the Spaniards
to Sir Lachlan MacLean in the mid
die of the sixteenth century is COM
ing into the possession of the present
chief of the Campbells, whose ances-
tor was Inundated u ~ that same Sir
Lachlan MacLean and driven
through fear OF the fierce Highland
chief TO seek arbitration of their
quarrel in the Scottish court, there
by bringing upon his head the jeers
and scoffings of both Highland and
Lowland mobiles.
Perhaps it is justice upon the
heads of the MacLeans for having
sunk the treasure-ship that they
should after all lose the gold TO their
enemy For whether you believe
one of the history-sounding accounts
that the scholars OF Londontown
give or the fireside fairy tale told by
the grandmothers of ArgyiiisIiTc,
you must believe that a MacLean of
his own will sent that ship. with all
the gold OF the grandees of Spain in
the days of the famed Armada, To
the bottom of Tobermory bay, by
Moryern sands.
Most of the historians agree that
when the Armada was blown to
pieces, partly by that inyincible
sailor Sir Francis Drake and partly
by July storm. the flagship of the
squadron sent by the Duke of Flor
ence to swell the force of the Span
ish fleet against the English, under
the command of Capt Gaspard de
oouZd, Will uSI 10 guns dQG fSO
men, fed for safety into the bay OF
Tobermory. So say the Campbells
of today.
The historian of the MacLeans
declares that the ship was really the
Florida, under the command of
Captain Foreija.
Be that as it may, the commander
sent an insolent demand ashore for
food and water TO last him to the
coast of Spain. The answer was a
laugh. Thereupon, the commander
OF the warship, not TO be put off
by a country squire, threatened to
force the needed supplies out of Sir
Lachian. To that the laird of Quart
made reply: The wants of the
stranger shall be attended to after
he has been taught lesson of more
courteous behaviour" and. in order
