_N.B._--When the Major was in the Castle of Edinburgh he
happened to run scarce of monie, when I was so happy as to make
out for him among my acquaintances upon July 20th and 21st,
1746, ten pounds sterling.
Upon the approach of winter, collected for MacGregor of Glengyle
and some men with him, fifteen pounds sterling. To Mr. James
Falconar, clergyman, fifty shillings sterling. To a brother of
Kinloch Moidart, who had been bred a sailor, a guinea and a
half. Isabel Shepherd's effects, given that way, eight pounds
sterling. Total, 37. 1. 6.
