Welsh Court to the kindred country of Britanny, whither the knowledge of the language acquired in Wales might be one of the reasons for his flight, and where he subsequently married; his Scottish name, Fleance, being changed into a name more in harmony with the nomenclature of his adopted country. Indeed Duncan Stewart records at considerable length the tradition then universally believed of the flight to Britanny, and the subsequent marriage there; but in his account these incidents belong to the history of Fleance's son, not to that of Fleance himself, a mistake the explanation of which will be found at p. 16. The first recorded mention of Alan in England belongs to Iioi. On September 3d of that year the King held a great Court at Windsor, and a charter then granted to Herbert, Bishop of Norwich, is signed by witnesses, "illustrious of England, ecclesiastical and secular," the list being headed by the name of Queen Matilda, and followed, among others, by that of Alan, which occupies a high position on the roll, standing before those of Gilbert and Roger Fitz-Richard, Robert Malet, and Herbert, the King's chamberlain (Monasticon, iv. 17, v.) Another charter, by which Herbert, Bishop of Norwich, founded the Cathedral Priory of his see, passed on the same occasion, and was attested by nearly the same witnesses as the first, including the King and Queen and Alan Fitz-Flaald. This charter confirms the " Church of Langham, which had been Alan's, and his (Alan's) tithes." Now Langham was afterwards a recognized portion of Fitz-Alan's Honour of Mileham, from which it was not far distant. We see from the Hundred Rolls (i. 434) that the tenure of this fief was made a subject of report by a provincial jury in 1275. The jurors of the hundred of...

Book excerpt: On a hillside near Ballachulish in the Scottish Highlands in May 1752, a rider is assassinated by a gunman. The murdered man is Colin Campbell, a government agent traveling to nearby Duror where he’s evicting farm tenants to make way for his relatives. Campbell’s killer evades capture, but Britain’s rulers insist this challenge to their authority must result in a hanging. The sacrificial victim is James Stewart, who is organizing resistance to Campbell’s takeover of lands long held by his clan, the Appin Stewarts. James is a veteran of the Highland uprising crushed in April 1746 at Culloden. In Duror he sees homes torched by troops using terror tactics against rebel Highlanders. The same brutal response to dissent means that James’s corpse will for years hang from a towering gibbet and leave a community utterly ravaged. Introducing this new edition of his account of what came to be called the Appin Murder, historian James Hunter tells how his own Duror upbringing introduced him to the tragic story of James Stewart.

Book excerpt: This volume examines Highland society during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries highlighting the extent to which kinship and clientage were organising principles within clanship. Based on clans located in the central and eastern Highlands this study goes some way to addressing the imbalance in Highland historiography which hitherto has concentrated largely on the west Highlands and islands. Focusing initially on internal clan structure, the study broadens into an analysis of local politics within the context of regional and national affairs, raising questions regarding the importance of land and the nature of lordship as well as emphasising the need for Highland history to be integrated further into broader studies of Scottish society during this period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An armed uprising. A conspiracy. An assassination. A hanging. These events, starting with the crushing of Jacobite rebels at Culloden in 1746 and culminating six years later in the so-called Appin Murder, provided Robert Louis Stevenson with the plot of his enduringly popular novel Kidnapped. But truth can be every bit as dramatic as fiction. And never more so than in this account of what lay behind the killing of government officer Colin Campbell by a hidden gunman on a May afternoon in 1752. Campbell was on his way to evict rebels from the Ardshiel estate near Appin, and Britain's rulers saw in his murder a terrorist act committed by Jacobite survivors of Culloden. When the alleged killer evaded a Scotland-wide manhunt and escaped abroad, politicians insisted someone had to pay for Campbell's death.The sacrificial lamb was James Stewart, a Culloden veteran who had been organising resistance to Campbell's evictions. James was found guilty in the show trial that followed and was hanged close to the murder scene. His body was left suspended there for years as a grim warning to anyone else thinking of challenging the new order the British state had imposed on the Jacobite Highlands.
