this sinister document which gave the
signal for "a murder grim and great
and gave " with a certain routine air
as though massacre were as customary
as filing accounts.

ured In many a Highland romance.

bleak. mountain-hemmed valley In Ar

which Dickens wrote. they will live

Tins were the clan of the M~acdonalds.
Their arch-executioner was Dalrynple,
the master of stair. He had been a
favorite OF King James. but had trans
ferred his allegiance to william OF
orange. a man of fascinating man
ners. Irresistible ~eloquence, humane
and good-natured in his private life,
he Is n OF the psychological puz-
zles of history.
Indemnity had been offered to all the
clans that had taken up arms in be-
half of the Stuart dynasty on condi-
ton that the oath of allegiance was
taken by the chiefs In the presence Of
a civil judge before New Years day,
1892. Much to the disappointment of
Dalrymple. who believed In blood let
ting as a remedy for national diseases,
all of them submitted In due time eS-
cept Mac-Ian, the chief OF the Macdon .
aid clan. Desiring to win fame as the
last to yield, he delayed making sub
mission until New Years eve, Then
he reported himself at Fort william for
the purpose. There was nobody there
10 take his oath. Not until Jan. s,
1892, owing to unforeseen Circumstance
es, was II recorded by a magistrate who
transmitted q certificate to the council
of Edinburgh. explaining the matter.
