in the
House of James, MacDonald on the Coal-hill
in Leith, I met with Ranald MackDonell
of Aberarder &and his Brother German AlexrAlexander
MackDonell of Tullucherom on the Loch-
laggan Side of Badenoch, Cadets of
the Family of Kappoch. The said A-
lexander told me, that he had the
Honour to give a brown short Coat, a
Shirt &and a Pair of Shoes to the Prince
in his Sculking just on his entringentering Ba-
denoch to go to meet with Cluny and
Lochiel. After the Battle of Culloden
AlexrAlexander MackDonell having made his
Peace with Lord Loudon, &and procured
a Protection, was now &and then sent out
to search for the Prince, &and by his Re-
ports became an Instrument in his
preservation. The Prince told AlexrAlexander
MackDonell, that he had learned now
to know the 4th Part of a Peck of
Meal, upon which he had once liv-
ed for about eight Days. The Prince,
while in Badenoch had Plenty of
every thingeverything.
