"Belonging to the old church of Monzie, taken down 1830, was an instrument of punishment called the jougs. It was simply an iron collar, fastened to the outside of the wall, near one of the doors, by a chain. No person alive, it is believed, has seen the pillory put in requisition, nor is it known at what period it was first adopted for the reformation of offenders; but there can be no doubt, that an age which could sanction burning for witchcraft, would see frequent occasion for the milder punishment. It is now regarded as a relic of a barbarous age, and has been affixed to the wall of the present church merely to gratify the curiosity of antiquaries." New Statistical Account |

A fine castellated Mansion, situated a little below the village of Monzie, three stories in height, offices one, property of William Johnstone Esqr.
"In the garden of Monzie are five larches, remarkable for their age, growth and symmetry. They are coeval with the celebrated larches of Dunkeld, having been brought along with them to the country from the same place, and are now superior to them in beauty and size. The tallest measures 102 feet in perpendicular height: another is 22 feet in circumference at the ground, 16 feet, and at the distance of 2½ feet from the ground, 16 feet, and it throws out branches to the extraordinary distance of 48 and 55 feet from the trunk. The late Duke of Athol, it would appear, evinced a more than ordinary degree of interest in the progress of those fine trees, - sending his gardener annually thither to observe their growth. When this functionery returned and made his wonted report, that the larches at Monzie were leaving those of Dunkeld behind in the race, his Grace would joculerly allege, that his srvant had permitted General Campbell's good cheer to impair his powers of observation."

"For more than two hundred years antecedent to this period, the mania of burning for witchcraft had raged with violence all over Europe. History informs us, that about the year 1515, 500 witches were executed at Geneva in the short space of three months; in the diocese of Como, 1000 in one year; in Germany alone, from the year 1484 to the supression of persecution for witchcraft, 100,000. England, according to Barrington, put to death 30,000; and Scotland, with a narrower field and a smaller population, was nothing behind, - multitudes being burnt in every part of the Kingdom. Need it excite wonder then, if in this sanguinary and appalling tragedy, when "one half of the population was either bewitching or bewitched," - the parish of Monzie should have immolated one solitary victim. Tradition informs us, that the name of the woman who was burned for this alleged crime was McNieven. The scene of her execution was the brow of a hill, commonly called the Knock and the particular spot still recognized by the name of McNieven's Craig. Whether or not she was convicted before the Court of Judiciary is now uncertain; but as the privy council was in the practice of granting commissions to the resident gentlemen and ministers, to examine, and afterwards to try and execute witches all over Scotland, it is probable that this unfortunate creature was convicted before one of those local tribunals. The date of this transaction must be between 1711 and 1722, when the last execution for witchcraft in Scotland took place in Dornoch. While at the stake, she is represented, like the sibyl of old, as pouring out predictions and denunciations: but these, in all probability, are much beholden to the inventive powers of others, and were they now detailed, could not afford gratification to any rational mind. The unshaken belief of the people in witchcraft, and the atrocities of what, it is feared, was little better than a popular and lawless execution , must have been powerfully operated upon their heated minds; for even to this day, when viewed at a distance through time's dusky horizon, the "Witch of Monzie" presents to the imagination a certain undefined magnitude, shedding a dim inglorious halo around this periodof our parochial history."

095 |
A small but prominent hill of an oval shape, and all thickly planted with fir except part of its north side. Its south and west sides are somewhat steep, but on the north and east it rises with a gradual slope. Probable height from its base two hundred feet. The boundary between the parishes of Monzie and Fowlis Wesyer crosses over its top.
Its east side is the property of James Maxtone, Esqr., Cultoquhey, its west belongs to William Johnstone Esqr., Monzie Castle.
In the New Stat [Statistical] Account this hill is called Glowero'erhim, and is known as such in the district by a number of persons. Mr. Maxtone, one of the proprietors, however, states that its correct name is Milquhanzie Hill, and that he has many old documents connected with his property to confirm the same. Ther was a farm on one occasion called Glowero'erhim, of which the hill formed part, and it is from that circumstance that the people in the locality now apply the name to the hill. |
