Cluny's own character, except by Kennedy and Young Glengarry, is unimpeached, and Lochgarry bore the stoutest testimony to his honour. The early biography of Archibald Cameron is interesting. As the youngest son of old Lochiel, he, with his famous brother 'the gentle Lochiel, set about reforming the predatory habits of their clan, with considerable success.
Though he had ordered great quantities of arms in June, no real preparations had been made for a rising. His Highlanders Glengarry, Lochgarry, Archy Cameron, Clanranald did not know where he was. Scotland was not warned.
He sends a list of traffickers between England and the Prince, including Lochgarry, 'formerly in the King's service, and very well known; is now in Scotland.

Charles sent congratulations, 'and doubts not your son will be ready to draw the sword in his just Cause. The sword remained undrawn.
Cameron of Clunes and Macdonald of Lochgarry, or Lochgarie, though they were themselves 'skulking, received the Prince with the utmost kindness and found a hiding-place for him in a hut in a wood at the south side of Loch Arkaig. Here the outlaws left him; only one of their number, Patrick Grant, remained till the Prince should be supplied with money to reward their faithful service.
