Thread Name: The Massacre of Glencoe—Favorite Version
Subject: RE: The Massacre of Glencoe—Favorite Version
I was in Glen Coe back in 1988, and I saw a sign on the lawn of a hotel that said "No dogs or Campbells" My wife's maiden name was Campbell.

What Scottish history I know tells me that it was mostly the doing of the Kings man, Dalrymple, who had the knife out for the MacDonalds. He ordered the massacre and the Campbells were only following orders. Where have we heard that before?

Didn't the MacDonalds attack the MacLeods while they were in church?
