CHAPTER XI THE CLASSICAL PERIOD 1700-1760, Scenes Linked with Culloden. We are standing on the battlefield of Culloden, a northeast wind whipping the sleet into our eyes. Five miles distant is Inverness, the capital of the Scottish Highlands. Do you see this spring? Here it was that the giant chief ...of the clan Mackintosh fell dead from his wounds as, with his last strength, he bore to the spring a little wounded drummer-boy whom he had heard at his side moaning for water. To this day a shadow rests upon the memory of the Duke of Cumberland, leader of the govern- ment forces, who was popularly known as " Billy the Butcher. " To-day round the oval moorland of the last battle fought in the British Isles are thick fir-woods, dark and mournful as they guard the secrets of northern valor and chivalry.
