Correction: No other version has established, so completely, Lamkin's motive for the brutal killings.

As for Lord Wearie snd his wife, Prime Castle in Balwearie,
and Lambert Linkin who was hung near Doune, I'm afraid we're no closer to figuring out the principles of this murder (and if it really took place) than Motherwell in 1827.

Maybe we should ask Charlie Manson? Wasn't he a ballad writer?
