Colguhoun (pronounced as one would clear the throat, or by coughing out a few letters) slew two MacGregors for killing and eating a tough wedder when they were benighted and denied hospitality. So MacGregor marched with 200 men (lowest tally) against Colquhbun's 800 (highest estimate to make things more exciting), and won handsomely by two Macs only to three hundred Colquhoun's Dragoons (bo CTt, ed). A parly of divinity students who "had come out fra' Glasgo' merely to see tho contest, got offside somehow and were massacred by mistake. The pibrochs toro the air in Glen Truin that day! The widows of the slain Colquhouns, 220 in number, came ariding on white horses into Stirling, each bearing her husband's slhirfc on.a spear, crying as a lament. "Persil dhu ho! leroe!
