Book The History of Scotland  Vol  4

Download or read book The History of Scotland Vol 4 written by John Hill Burton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Scotland, Vol. 4: From Agricola's Invasion to the Revolution of 1688 She might have seen how the interference of England was detested, and thus have judged that, when France interfered in Scotland, the old ally would get no better toleration than the old enemy. It was to be in the arrangement of events that France was to interfere, and in a vital and unpardonable shape. But even before such projects were ripened, the queen-regent, as if she had intended to awaken all suspicions, tampered where she might easily have let alone. The Scots could never be brought to tolerate foreigners, English or Continental, in political offices of trust or power. We have seen how poor De la Bastie's elevation ended. There was the unpopular history of the other French friends of Albany, and their holding of Dumbarton Castle - national offences to the country, only mitigated by the preponderance of the offences committed by England. There never appears a foreigner on the lists of the holders of high political office in Scotland down to this time; and that there were few foreigners promoted in the Church, we may gather from the notoriety surrounding one instance in which a foreigner got promotion. His name was Damien. He was made Abbot of Tongueland; and because he, a Frenchman, obtained this Scots benefice, he was the object of the satirical lash of the poet Dunbar. The office of chancellor was held by the Earl of Huntly, perhaps the greatest territorial lord of the day. A deputy or vice-chancellor was appointed, who did the work of the office and held the power, and the person so appointed was a Frenchman named De Roubay.

My plan in the continuation of course deviated materially in this respect, I combined the two to the utmost extent that I could go, without destroying the prominent features of a general history, and have incorporated the public political acts of the church, yet avoiding the details of her internal regulations, and those controversies and proceedings, which were strict ly religious.

In the absence of official details, the most gloomy accounts were given by a few terrified stragglers who arrived in the capital, and who believed that, with the exception of themselves, the whole of Mackay's army had been destroyed. In the state of disorder and con fusion which prevailed, the Duke of Hamilton, the Commissioner to the revolution Parliament, summoned a meeting of the Privy Council in the evening, at which orders were issued to raise all the fencible men in the west, and to concentrate all the forces in the south at Stirling, to which point it was supposed Dundee (of whose death they were not aware) would be rapidly hastening; and on the supposition that Mackay was either killed or made prisoner, Sir John Lanier was ordered west to take the command.
