" Edinburgh, [24th June, 1745]. Sir : — I have certain informations that Donald Cameron, younger, of Lochiel ; James Graham, alias M'Gregor, of Glengyle; Alexander Macdon- ald, younger, of Glengarry, and the captain of Clanranald are officers in the French service, and that they are now in Scotland raising recruits; that it is thought to be of great importance to the peace and safety of the government that a check should be put to this practice, by securing the persons concerned ; and that you ...and the other gentlemen in the new-raised Highland companies are able to discover these gentlemen and secure them ; and that neither the other military officers in this country, nor the civil officers, are able to perform that service. I have therefore addressed the warrants en- closed to you, and if you can be so lucky as to be able effectually to execute them, I dare adventure to assure you it will be looked upon as acceptable service by his Majesty and his servants; and I must own, I think it will in the event be found to be an act of real benefit to the gentlemen them- selves, as it will prevent their going on in an affair which I believe will in the end be ruinous to them and their families.
