To Mr. Edgar.
September 5, 1743.
Sir,—I gave you the trouble of a pretty
long Letter the fifth of July last, since which I
have not had the pleasure of hearing from Murray to
you. Lord T[ra]q[uai]r is still att London but Edgar
proposes to be soon down here, which I heartily wish, some
folks being vastly anxious for his return expecting upon that
Event to be intirely satisfied as to what may be hoped for from
the Kings friends in England. Upon the Highland deserters
being shott att London,[171] which has greatly disobliged their
Countrymen, I took it upon me to acquaint some of the
Gentlemen that it was his Majestys pleasure they should
endeavour to prevent as much as possible any of their
followers from inlisting in the Service of the present
Government. This I thought the more necessary as a great
many of them have been carried out of the Country for some
years past, the Dutch having gott several hundreds upon their
last Augmentation.[172] My Lord K[e]n[mur]e is returned from
Portugall perfectly recovered. I said some obliging things to
him in his Majestys Name of gaining the Cameronians
(amongst whom he lived) to his Majestys Interest. I am very
sensible what a fickle Sett of people they are and how difficult
an undertaking of this kind may prove. Yett as Sir Th[oma]s
G[ord][o]n of E[arls]t[o]n,[173] a leading man amongst them two
years ago, spoke to the late Lord of the precarious Situation of
the present Government, and in case of a Restoration begged
his protection, this Lord seemed the fitter person to learn his
present Sentiments. Your Friend Sir J[ames] S[tewar]t[174] who
deservedly well liked by all his acquaintances is to be married
to Lord W[emy]ss eldest daughter, a Match made by Lord
E[lcho][175] who left this the beginning of Summer and I
understand, is now at Boulogne, so that I had no opportunity to
deliver the Compliments his Majesty and the Prince honour him
with. I beg you will believe me, etc.
Some time in the month of August the Laird of
Mc[Leo]d[176] came to Edinburgh and told L[ochie]l on his way
here, who desired he might see him, and that he had several
Commissions to us, so desired he would make an appointment
with me. When L[ochie]l spoke to me of it I agreed to ride out
with him on the Saturday to Peggie Vints where he proposed to
dine and see a son of Lord L[ovat]s who was then at the
School of Preston,[177] but we were both afraid from his saying
that he had several Commissions that his Lordship had been
too open with him, contrary to the engagement all these of the
Concert had come under to one another; for which reason we
resolved to be very cautious and determined, in case we found
it as we suspected, to say nothing of it to him. We according
mett, dined in the Country and adjurned to the Tavern in
Edinburgh where we resolved to give him leave to say or ask
as few questions as possible and took occasion to speak a
good deal on the present miserable Situation of the Country,
and tell him that we thought him one of the fittest Persons we
knew to instigate the English to join heartily for promoting the
Kings interest, being both a highland man and one of power in
the Country; and at the same time told him it was his Majestys
pleasure that the Chiefs of the Clans should allow none of their
men to leave the Country. To which he answered that he and
Sir A[lexander] Mc[Donal]d had taken care to let none of theirs
inlist, and said a good deal of his readiness to serve the King
so soon as an occasion should offer, and that he had already
during his being att London made it his business to incite and
encourage the English to every thing that cou’d conduce to his
Majestys interest; and as to Lord L[ova]ts commissions, they
turned out only to inquiring about Lord T[ra]q[uai]r and what
news or good hopes he had. From this time nothing passed
worthy the noticeing, I had some compliments from Lord
L[ova]t in his letters to L[ochie]l wherein he acquainted him with
the success he had in a Circuit he made over the Country and
then gott a Letter or two from himself on these subjects and
desiring his Majesty might be acquainted with it and at the
same time saying he was resolved to continue at Home in
expectation of something satisfactory upon my Lord
T[ra]q[uai]r’s return. Upon this I wrote the following Letter to Mr.
Edgar, dated October 28th, 1743.
