And impregnable mJity enemies
found it, in both earlier and
lal.-r ages, the tokens of assault still
remaining in the sears of cannon shot,
some lew of which may still be seen
j embedded in the masonry.
Tne view from tile windows in the
direction of Llsmon- includes at low
tide the Lady's Rock, a crag to w hich
Chief La.cb.lan Maclean of Duart bound
his wife, born Lady Catherine Camp?
bell, daughter of the Bi -.r. 1 Duke of
Argyll, expecting that the rising tide
would drown her. but she was fortu?
nately rescued Just Iii the nick of lime
by some of her father's retainers who
chanced to be passing in a boat. The
? ? cue was k.pt secret, her husband
was permitted to hold the funeral e. ....
mony with which he expected to blind
th-- public eye, th" coffin being weight
ed with a baulk of wood, and the fol?
lowing year he was nlaln in Edinburgh
by the lady's brother. Sir lohn Camp
toll. .She thereupon married a kins?
man. Donald Campbell of Auehlnbrock,
with whom si..- lived happily for many
3*ears after.
The founder of th.. Clan Maclean,
and the first of the name to ilgure in
historic record, waa Oilloan of the Rat
tie Ax-, who nourished in the r. Igh
of Alexander III . and w.-.s one of his
principal commanders at the battle of
IJirga against the Norsemen. HU do
scendnnts were! the ??sons of Olllenn,"
Mac GlUeans, or Macleans. They
fought witli Bruise at Rnnnorkburn;
i.iul at PI odd en Field the then Chlor of
the dan fell beside his King in that
circle of Scottish speari that resisted
till nightfall th" assaults of the Eng?
lish chivalry. The Maclean of Duart
wns prominent in tile movement un?
successfully promoted by Henry VIII.
to marry his only sou, afterwards Kd
W-ard VI.. to Mary Queen of Scots. In
the yr.m civil War th- Macleans took
arms for the royal caUUo under Mont
rose and the then chief. Lachlan. was
made a baronet by the King. At the
battle of Inverkelthlhg sir Lachlan's
son and successor, Sir Hector Maclean,
was slain, but not before many of his
clansmen had fallen, who sought to
ward him with their bodies, shouting
as ? <eh defender dropped. "Fear .lie
i..n E'achln." '?Another for Hector,"
when another man would step
forward, crying. "Ban air son
Kachln.' "Death for Hector.' It
is this instance of the heroic devo?
tion of clansmen for their chief, that
Sir Walt, r Sett makes use of in "The
Pair Maid of Perth." when he describes i
t . combat between the champions of
the rival clans Chattan and Quhole, in
the present. of the King?a combat
that took place, however, several cell- \
Ulrica earlier.
Sir Hector, the fifth baronet, who lust
possession of Castle Duart for his loy?
alty to the Stuarts, was out in the ris- I
Ines of both 1T1.. and 17 1.".. and fbtight
at Cuiloden at the head of R?? clans-!
men. Taken prisoner on the fluid, ho :
P issed several years of captivity in j
the Tower of London, to bo eventually I
liberated by the "Act of Grace/' und |
die in exile at Rome.
The present Chief of the Clan. Sir j
ritzroy Donald .Maclean, Is. ilka his;
tornears, a gallant soldier; a veteran i
cavalry othcejr of the Crimean vviir,
while his eldest son Hector, j.s Lieu?
t-bant Col.1 commanding a battalion
of the Scots Guard. Another son. .lohn,
fell in battle in thu South African M ar.
and the third son is a Commander Of
the Royal NaVy. Sir Filzroy'a sisters!
are til'! widowed L'dy Hood of Avalon,
an.i d^ady Llilngalock, whose son, the
lion, Charles Rose. the well-known
aviator, lost his life through an acci?
dent to his machine two years ago.
A number of tin Macleans atter the
ia it Stuart ilsing sought fortune and
ti me in foreign < innen. One attained
the rank of Held marshal In Portugal
rind was Governor >'f Lisbon In 1773,
whll, In* brother was at tin- same
time Governor of the Portugese pro?
vince of Estrelnadtira, In more recent
nines we have sir Harry Maclean, tiie
Kaid or pommahder-ln-chiof of the
.Moorish army for ninny years, and Bs
stich responsible for what little civili?
sation Morocco can boast. He was
I. rmerly Captain of th.- 6Vth Regiment
of infantry in the British army, ... rved
as a member of the Red Rlvi i expedi?
tion in Canada under Lord U'olSClOy,
and while stationed at Gibraltar quitt?
ed the English service to take, com?
mand of the late Sultan of Moroc 6'S
DOdy-guard, being advanced in course
of time to the position of gen
, rnllsslmo. He had a good deal of do?
mestic troubli . in f.ici it was his un?
fortunate marriage to a native of Cib
lilt i - a "Scorpion of the Rock" as the
Spanish contemptuously say-named
Catherine foe. that led him to trans?
fer his services to the Sultan, for the
Social position of the woman was such,
both prior and subsequent to his mar
ringe, that nobody at Gibraltar, und
none of the European ladies at Tan?
gier, would censehl to bold intercourse

was compelle I to divorce her In Lon?
don, his own daughters testttying
against her. the co-respondent being
