One of the most important of these was Tullibardine's brother, Lord George Murray, an old soldier who had been 'out in the '15. He had real genius for generalship, and moreover understood the Highlanders and their peculiar mode of warfare.
The Duke was ordered, meantime, by the authorities, to remain at his Castle of Blair to secure the peace of the county, of which he was Lord-Lieutenant. The Marquis of Tullibardine's name appears henceforth in most of the events of the Rebellion.
We may also set aside, though vouched for by Lord Tullibardine's butler, 'ane litle old man with a fearful ougly face, who appeared to the Rev. Mr. Lesly. Being asked whence he came, he said, 'From hell, and, being further interrogated as to why he came, he observed: 'To warn the nation to repent'. This struck Mr. Lesly as improbable on the face of it; however, he was a good deal alarmed.
This scheme was coupled with a design of marrying the young lady also to one of Lord Tullibardine's own sons, of whom he had five, and, according to Simon Fraser, without fortune to bestow on any of his children. The Master of Lovat, Simon Fraser, as he rightfully was now, communicated this scheme to his father, and entreated him to resist this claim.
