The other, who came after him, was John Leslie, afterwards the Bishop of Ross, and her stanch friend and supporter in her adversities. We have his errand from himself. He represented the party of the old Church, especially the Lords Huntly, Athole, Crawford, Marishal, Suther- land, and Caithness. He says he oflfered the devoted duty of his party, and that it was thankfully received. He further tells the significant fact that he recom- mended her to land at Aberdeen, where twenty thou- sand troo...ps would be at her disposal ; and that he was accompanied by one high in command in Huntly's armed force, who was to arrange her convoy to Aber- deen, if she consented to land there. This was no less than the ofier of the power of the north to strike at once a great blow against the Congregation and for the old religion. However it came to pass, the landing at Aberdeen was not effected ; but the proposal will be seen to have an intimate connection with events im- mediately following the queen s return to Scotland.^ * History, vernacular version, 294.
