Bha mi ag innse dhuibh mu thachartas ann an Taigh-seinnse Dhurais, taobh Loch Nis, an d猫idh Bl脿r Ch霉il Lodair. Chaidh m脿thair S矛ne, Hannah, a mhurt le saighdear dearg a bha air an rathad a Chille Chuimein. Chaidh S矛ne air muin eich a Chille Chuimein, c貌mhla ri Iain B脿n 脿 Duras agus fear eile. Air muin ceathramh eich, bha corp Hannah.

Chuir na freiceadain stad orra. 鈥業s mise Alasdair Friseal 脿 Druim Athaisidh,鈥� thuirt Iain B脿n. Cha robh iad e貌lach air Alasdair, a bha na cho-ogha do dh鈥橧ain. Ach bhiodh fios aca, 鈥檚 d貌cha, gur e uachdaran a bha ann a bha taiceil don riaghaltas. Bha fios aig Iain gun robh Di霉c Chumberland anns a鈥� ghearasdan. Thuirt e ris na freiceadain gun robh e ag iarraidh bruidhinn ris an Di霉c.

Th脿inig leifteanant a bhruidhinn ris. Thuirt Iain gun robh e ag iarraidh bruidhinn ris an Di霉c. Th脿inig m脿idsear. Dh鈥檌nns Iain an aon rud dhasan.

Mu dheireadh thall, fhuair Iain cothrom bruidhinn ri Cumberland fh猫in. Sheall e corp Hannah dha. Mh矛nich e gun robh a nighean air fh脿gail gun sgillinn ruadh is gun dl霉th-charaid, agus gur iad saighdearan dearga a bu choireach. A bharrachd air a鈥� mhurt, sgrios na saighdearan an taigh-seinnse.

Dh鈥櫭╥st an Di霉c ris an tagradh. Dh鈥檌arr e air Iain a dhol a thaigh-seinnse ann an Cille Chuimein agus feitheamh an sin. Beagan uairean a th矛de an d猫idh l脿imhe, th脿inig c貌irneal a-steach, le m脿ileid leathair fo achlais. Bha airgead na broinn do Sh矛ne. Bha na h-oifigearan a bha ciontach dhen eucoir air airgead a chur ri ch猫ile. Bha gu le貌r ann airson tiodhlacadh math a thoirt do Hannah, agus airson Taigh-seinnse Dhurais a chur air a chasan a-rithist.

Thill an c貌mhlan a Dhuras. Chaidh Hannah a thiodhlacadh. Chuir S矛ne an taigh-seinnse air d貌igh 脿s 霉r. Bha na saighdearan air an cur a-null thairis ann an seirbheis a鈥� Chr霉in. Cha do thuig iad riamh gum b鈥� e an duine a fhuair an t-airgead bhuapa fear de na reubaltaich a bha iad a鈥� lorg. Seadh, 鈥檚 e sin a bh鈥� ann an Iain B脿n 鈥� reubaltach Seumasach! Thill e gu bheatha mar ruagalaiche anns a鈥� mhonadh faisg air Duras.

I was telling you about an incident in the Dores Inn, beside Loch Ness, after the Battle of Culloden. Jean鈥檚 mother, Hannah, was murdered by a redcoat soldier who was on the way to Fort Augustus. Jean went on horseback to Fort Augustus, along with Fair John from Dores, and another man. On the back of a fourth horse, was Hannah鈥檚 body.

The sentries stopped them. 鈥業 am Alexander Fraser from Drumashie,鈥� said Fair John. They did not know Alexander, who was a cousin of John鈥檚. But they would know, perhaps, that he was a landlord who was supportive of the government. John knew that the Duke of Cumberland was in the fort. He said to the sentries that he was wanting to speak to the Duke.聽

A lieutenant came to speak to him. John said that he was wanting to speak to the Duke. A major came. John told him the same thing.

Eventually, John got an opportunity to speak to Cumberland himself. He showed Hannah鈥檚 body to him. He explained that her daughter was left without money and without a close relative, and that it was redcoat soldiers that were responsible. In addition to the murder, the soldiers [had] destroyed the inn.

The Duke listened to the appeal. He asked John to go to an inn in Fort Augustus and wait there. A few hours after that, a colonel came in, with a leather satchel under his arm. There was money in it for Jean. The officers who were guilty of the crime had put money together. There was enough there to provide a good burial for Hannah, and to get Dores Inn on its feet again.

The group returned to Dores. Hannah was buried. Jean set up the inn anew. The soldiers were sent overseas in the service of the Crown. They never understood that the man who got the money from them was one of the rebels that they were seeking. Aye, that鈥檚 what Fair John was 鈥� a Jacobite rebel! He returned to his life as a fugitive on the hills near Dores.
