I walked across Mull to Torosay,where I took a boat across the water to Lochaline.Energy saving lampsThen I walked to Kingairlock,where I took another boat across Loch Linnhe to Appin.This took six days,and on my way I met and spoke to a number of travellers.I heard all about Alan's clan,the Stewarts,and their enemies,the Campbells.Although they were both High land clans,the Campbells and Stewarts had hated each other for years,DVD Ripper,and now the Campbells were helping the English army drive many Highlanders out of their homes. Indeed, in a day or two, I heard, red-haired Colin Campbell himself was com ing to Appin, with King George's soldiers, to drive the Stew arts out and so destroy his enemies. But I heard also of James Stewart, head of the Stewart clan in Appin, and that he and his clansmen would dearly love to see Colin Campbell dead.
People also talked of a man called Alan Breck. Some called him a murderer; others said that he was a brave fighter. He was in danger every time he returned to the Highlands,be cause the English would pay a good price for him-dead or alive. I listened with interest to everything that they told me.Energy saving lampsBut I liked it best when I heard Alan described as a fine man and an honest Highlander.
