• Notes

  He lived in the reign of David of Scotland. He received the title of Earl when he took the Castle at Dumbartonshire for the King. He took it when the King asked that of him. His reply was "if I can". He used strategy to invite the owners on a hunt. The Colquhouns then took the castle literally by walking in it and defending it - without any casualties involved.
