Ye shall hear what Ian Roy Cean* says for himsell. * Red John the warrior, a name personal and proper in the Highlands to John Duke of Argyle and Greenwich, as MacCummin was that of his race or dignity.

Cean Bermudez says of his works in Spain, "He left nothing that is absolutely bad, and nothing that is perfectly good."
