, p. 263.
264 The Lord Chancellors of Scotland beheaded. Hume escaped to the house of a friend, Montgomery of Lainshaw, and lay there concealed for three weeks, while a report was circulated that he was dead. He then made his way to Dublin, and Bordeaux, whence he travelled as " Dr Peter Wallace " to Holland, settling at Utrecht.
There he was joined by his wife and family, who, before leaving Scotland, had been sub- jected to harsh treatment by the Government of Charles II. The eldest son, Patr...ick, was arrested and put in prison, but was afterwards liberated on finding bail for 2000. Under the designation of Dr Wallace, Sir Patrick lived for three years at Utrecht in great privation, as his estates had been confiscated, and his income was small and precarious. He was very active in promoting the claims of the Prince of Orange to the throne, offer- ing to take upon himself the administration of affairs in Scotland until a Convention of the Estates should meet.
In 1688, when the Prince of Orange sailed Hume and the Revolution 265 for Torbay, Sir Patrick Hume accompanied the expedition and shared in all its difficulties, and ultimately in its rewards.
