Summary

When the MacDougalls of Lorne defeated Bruce's army, the king was an outlaw throughout Argyll. One night, a certain man by the name of Farquhar MacKay gave him hospitality, and in return he was given the estates of Ugadale and Àirnigil, and a splendid brooch. This brooch is in the Lossit Family to this day [1950].
