Battle of Invernahavon
A.D. [Anno Domini] 1386
Battle of Invernahavon.
Invernahavon, - Battle between the Catanic and Camerones -
The ocasion of this battle is detailed in the Manuscript History of the family of MacKintosh as follows;-
The lands of the MacKintosh in Lochaber being possessed by the Cameron's, the rents were seldom levied ex-
cept by force and In battle, the Camerons irritated by the poinding of their Cattle resolved to maKe reprisals and Marching
into Badenoch about four hundred strong, Commanded by Charles McGilony; MacKintosh informed of this, in haste called his clan
together. The MacKintoshs, Macphersons & Davidsons soon Made a force superior to their enemies, but an unseasonable difference
was nearly proving fatal to them. It was agreed by all that MacKintosh; Captain of the Clan Chattan should Command the Centre of
the Army, but Cluny & Invernahavon Contended about the Command of the right wing; Cluny Claimed it as Chief of the Ancient Clan
Chattan of which the Davidsons of Invernahavon were but a branch; Invernahavon pleaded, that to him as the oldest branch
the right hand belonged by the Custom of Scottish Clans. The Contest Continued Until the enemy drew nigh & the MacKintosh as Umpire
decided in favour of Invernahavon. The Macphersons in whose Country they were met & who were as Numberous as the MacKintoshes and
Davidsons Combined, being greatly offended withdrew as spectators. The Conflict was very sharp. By the Superior Number of the
Camerons Many of the MacKintoshes & all the Davidsons were Cut off. The Macphersons Could no longer endure to see their brave
friends overpowered. They rushed in on the Camerons & soon gave them a total defeat. The few that escaped; with their leader; were
pursued from Invernahavon (the place of battle) three Miles above Ruthven in Badenoch over the River Spey & Charles McGilony was
Killed on a hill on Glenbancher, which is called Cor[ ]. i.e. Charles' Hill.

CLUNY CASTLE |
|
|
101 |
"Cluny Castle, which stands on the right hand, on a height so steep that a proper view of it cannot be obtained from the road. It is an elegant and com- pact building of three stories, in the Gothic style with turrets at the corners, and is of comparatively modern structure. The approach winds up the acclivity which is well wooded, while the grounds around are laid out with much taste.
There are presumed here not a few relics of the older time. Among these is the Shield carried by Prince Charles at the battle of Culloden, which is richly ornamented with silver. In the centre is a Dragon's head (certainly too toylik to inspire terror While round the circumference there are two warlike emblems, consisting of drums, Swords, colours, Roman faces, and axes. There are silver mounted pistols, a purse made apparently of Seals Skin, and mounted with silver all belonging to the Prince. There is also a silver mounted belt, believed to be charmed, which belonged to one of Cluny' ancestors, an Andrea Ferrara, stamped 1414, the mortar in which Cluny of "45" ground tobacco into Snuff during his hiding: it is formed of wood, with an iron ferrule around the mouth and is between Seven & eight inches long After the battle of Culloden, the estate was forfeited, and Cluny Castle of that day devoted to plunder and flames by the ruthless Duke of Cumberland, who would not be the more merciful that Cluny, when the rebels were in England, with about 600 Macpherson, had put a regiment of the Duks dragoons to flight. Macpherson, from his lurking place must have seen the flames arising from the Castle of his ancestors, with unutterable grief. While his wife, from the opposite Right sat most of the night beholding the conflagration of her once happy home".

Mr P. Grant Newtonmore |
102 |
east of Newtonmore A few years since, Mr Paul Grant, tenant of Altlarie, when improving the land removed what was considered a very perfect stone circle and supposed to have been Druidical. The stones were also broKen up and built into a new house in course of errection near by. In trenching the land on, and about, "Tom a Cladh" A number of stone Cists, Urns, and human bones were found, but the farmer dreading that some ill luck would follow such an act of desecration gave up the enterprise, and allowed the remains to ly as they were found. |

BADENOCH |
Badenoch |
Parliamentary Gazetteer
Cluny McPherson Esq
Major McPherson |
102 |
"A district in the South east of Invernesshire, about 35 Miles in length, And 28 M [Miles] breadth. It is bounded on the north by the Monadhleadh Mountains, which form the Souther Side of the Vale of Findhorn; on the east by the Braes of Abernethy; On the South by Athol And Lochaber; and on the west by the Great Glen of Scotland, or rather CoryaraiK mountains which lie further to the east. It is a wild and mountainous district, thinly inhabited and poorly Cultivated, Covered in many places with natural woods, and in others presenting wide stretches of bleaK lonely moorland. The river Spey intersects the district, rising in Loch Spey, a Small mountain tarn at the western extremity of Badenoch, at an elevation of 1,200 feet above the Sea, and flowing Slowly through a gradually widening Valley, first eastward and then north east. See Article Spey - The most interesting scenery and localities of Badenoch will be found in the Alvie, Kingussie and Laggan. - This district was in Ancient times the land of the powerful family of the Comyns or Cummins, who Came from Northumberland in the reign of David 1. - In 1230 Walter, Second Son of William Cumyn, Earl of Buchan, acquired the lordship of Badnoch, by grant ofAlexander 2 (Caledonia 11.563) In 1291 John Cumyn, Lord of Badenoch acKnowledged Edward 1 as Superior lord of Scotland. His Son popularly Called Red John Cumyn was Slain at Dumfries by the dagger of Bruce, on the 10th of February 1306. Bruce Annexed the lordship of Badenoch to the earldom of Murray; and the Clan Chattan appears from about this period to have Settled in Badenoch "a Species of Celtic Attila, whose Common appellation of 'the wolf of Badenoch' is Sufficiently Characteristic of the dreadful attributes which composed his Character (Tytler Vol [Volume] 3 p [page] 70) "On Some provocation given him by the bishop of Moray, this Chief descended from his mountains, and after laying waste to the Country with a Sacrilege which excited unwanted horror, SacKed and plundered the Cathedral of Elgin, carrying off its rich chalices and vestments, polluting its holy Shrines with blood, and finally Setting fire to the noble pile, which, with the adjoining houses of the Canons, and the neighbouring town, were burnt to the ground. This exploit of the father was only a Signal for a more Serious, Conducted by his natural Son, Duncan Stewart, whose manners were worthy of his descent, and who, at the head of a wild assemblage of Katherans, armed only with the Sword and target [targe] broKe with irresistible fury across the range of hills which divides the County of Aberdeen & Forfar, and began to destroy the Country, and murder the inhabitants, with recKless and indiscriminate cruelty. - Sir Walter Ogilvy then of Angus, along with Sir PatricK Grey, and Sir David Lindsay of GlenesK, instantly Collected their power, and although far inferior in numbers, trusting to the temper of their Armour. attacKed the mountaineers at GasKlune, near the Water of Ila. - But they were almost instantly overwhelmed, the katherans fighting with a ferocity and a Contempt of life, which Seems to have StrucK a panic into their Steel Clad assailants. - Ogilvy, with his brother, Wat of Litchtoune, Young of Auchterlony, the Lairds of Cross, Forfar, and Guthry, were Slain, and Sixty Men at Arms along with them while Sir ParticK Grey Sir David Lindsay were greviously wounded, and with difficulty Carried off the fields. The idomitable fierceness of the Highlanders is striKingly shown an anecdote p-reserved by Winton Lindsay had pierced one of these, a brawny and powerful man through the body with his Spear and this mortally wounded and in the agonies of death, he writhed himself up by main Strength, and with the weapon in his body, StrucK Lindsay a desperate blow with his Sword which Cut him through the stirrup and boot into bone, after which instantly sunK down and expired."- |

On the Site of the ancient Stronghold of the Lords of Badenoch Stands the Castle of Ruthven, on a green mount, jutting into a marshy plain. The mount is steep on three Sides, and tapering to the top, as it were artificial, the area on the top About 120 yards long and sixty broad; the South wall was nine feet thick, through which the arched entry was guarded by a strong iron gate and a portcullis; the other walls were Sixteen feet high and four thick, and the North end of the Court, with two towerS on the Corners, and some low buildings and a draw Well.
The ruins of the last of the Ruthven Strongholds, have an interest attached to them on account of their historical associations having been Succesively occupied by the bold and ruthless Wolf of Badenoch, by the beautiful And unfortunate Queen Mary, in her hunting excursions Among the Highland Wilds, by band of warriors engaged in bloody strifes Contending for evanescent power; and exhibiting in the ruins a Sad Memorial of the vanity of human ambition" Sic transit gloria mundi.
