Having dispersed the mutinous lords^ they returned safe to Berwick in little more than three weeks. In this year there happened an imfortunate rencoun- ter between Sir John Forrester and Sir John CarmichaeL Having met with their followers at a place called Red Swire, in the Middle March, they were employed in the ordinary cases of hearing and... redressing wrongs. The Scottish warden demanded to be delivered up one Farn- stein, an English outlaw. Forrester demurred ; some altercation ensued, and an attack commenced forthwith. The English began with a flight of arrows, but the Scots closing in upon them, compelled them to fly. Sir George Heron, Keeper of Tyndale, and 80 of the Scots, were slain, while Sir John Forrester, his son-in-law, Francis Russel, CoUingwood, Ogle, Fenwick, and others were taken pri- soners, and carried to the Regent Morton at Dalkeith, who requiring of them to appear in Scotland on such a day to answer the charge, dismissed them to Berwick, whither in haste Lord Hundson arrived with the Earl of Huntingdon.
