John MacDonald
Son to Angus MacDonald, fourth of Boradale, and brother to Ranald MacDonald, fifth of Boradale and John MacDonald. See Macdonald and Macdonald, Clan Donald, vol. 3, p. 269-70. Also see a transcription of a manuscript account allegedly by him (and passed down to his granddaughters, then living at Dalilea) in Appendix I to Paton's edition of the Lyon in Mourning (vol. 3, pp. 375-83). It was originally printed in Blackwood's Magazine, where some biographical information is provided by George Skene (pp. 408-18).
