[Note under Rob Roy's Cave:]
"Robert Macgregor, better known as Rob Roy (Red Rob) was proprietor
of Inversnaid in Glenarklet. A cave bearing his name is still shown
in that neighbourhood; but it has no other claim to notoriety, being merely
the intestices between huge loose rocks, & well adapted for temporary con-
cealment to an outlaw." New Stat: [Statistical] Account.
