STEVENSON PREFACE TO THE Kidnapped BIOGRAPHICAL EDITION hile my husband and Mr. Henley were engaged in W writing plays in Bournemouth they made a number of titles, hoping to use them in the future. Dramatic composition was not what my husband preferred, but the torrent of Mr. Henley’s enthusiasm swept him off his feet. However, after several plays had been finished, and his health seriously impaired by his endeavours to keep up with Mr. Henley, play writing was abandoned forever, and my husband returned to his legitimate vocation. Having added one of the titles, The Hanging Judge, to the list of projected plays, now thrown aside, and emboldened by my husband’s offer to give me any help needed, I concluded to try and write it myself. As I wanted a trial scene in the Old Bailey, I chose the period of 1700 for my purpose; but being shamefully ignorant of my subject, and my husband confessing to little more knowledge than I possessed, a London bookseller was commissioned to send us everything he could procure bearing on Old Bailey trials.

  • James of the Glen - a Short Biography
    James of the Glen - A short biography By Neill Malcolm James Stewart, better known as James of the Glen or Seaumas a' Ghlinne, was born possibly in 1702 or 1703. The exact date is not known. His father was John Stewart of Ardsheal but his mother's name has not been ascertained. John went on to marry Elizabeth Stewart from Perthshire and she gave birth to Charles Stewart who in due course became the Colonel of the Appin Regiment at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. A bothy that stands in Glen Duror is said to be his birthplace. However, with square corners, lime mortar and a chimney in one of the gable ends this building is far too young to have been there at the time of his birth. However, it is perfectly possible that a previous building had been there at that time but towards the fank (sheep pen), one will come across the footings of two buildings. One measures about 18 by 5.5 metres with walls about 80 cms thick and the other 5 by 6 metres. This latter was probably a byre or outhouse but the former was one which people would have lived in. What is left suggests that this was a turf or creel house typical of many houses of the West Highlands at that time but it could have been of stone, the stones having later been recycled either to build the present bothy or the nearby fank. Dr. Samuel Johnson stayed at one in Glen Moriston about three quarters of a century later.

  • The Royal Society of Edinburgh RSE @ Lochaber the Appin Murder
    The Royal Society of Edinburgh RSE @ Lochaber The Appin Murder – Historical Context Professor James Hunter FRSE Tuesday 3 September 2013, Ben Nevis Hotel, Fort William Report by Kate Kennedy Described as one of the greatest remaining murder mysteries in Scotland, the Appin murder is the subject of much speculation. The consensus is that the wrong man was convicted. In part 1 of a two-part event, the historical context of the story was discussed. Part 2 then re-examined the evidence using expert witnesses, taking account of modern methods of detection and scientific forensic techniques. On Monday 25 September 1752, Scotland’s High Court returned to Session in Inverary having just completed a very welcome 24-hour break. Prior to this, the court had sat for 53 hours straight, without formal intermission, hearing the case of James Stewart, who was accused of conspiracy in the murder of Colin Campbell of Glenure, the Red Fox. Although this was the way criminal courts were held in Scotland at this time, a trial of such length was quite exceptional. A guilty verdict had been reached the previous day and James Stewart’s sentence was due to be pronounced. Campbell was a government employee; the Factor of three West Highland estates that had been placed in government control, as their previous owners had launched an armed insurrection against the British State. The rebels, known as Jacobites, had tried to overthrow the ruling order; from the West Highlands they marched deep into England, their efforts ending in 1746 at the Battle of Culloden, where the Jacobites were broken and dispersed.

  • Complete Accessible Lochaber Guide
    ACCESSIBLE LOCHABER Aguide toLochaber PRODUCEDBYLOCHABERDISABILITYACCESSPANEL The first edition of Accessible Lochaber was published in 2002 following several years of survey work by fieldworkers and volunteers from the Access Panel. This was a substantial and thoroughly researched body of work and it has formed the basis for this updated, enlarged and revised 2007 version. The original edition is now out of print. This revised edition benefits from five years of user feedback and has a re-arranged and more user- friendly layout, it embraces modern technology by including websites where available, and has been expanded to take in the Small Isles and Knoydart. The re-survey and text-updating work, undertaken by Kath Johnston and Edythe Knowles, has taken 14 months to produce and, as it will be stored electronically and be available on the web, should be relatively easy to keep up to date. Residents and visitors to any particular part of Lochaber need only download the pages from the Guide that refer to that particular area. The information in the Guide should be read in conjunction with Visit Scotland’s accommodation guides. We have tried to ensure that the information is correct and up to date (May 2007) but we would be grateful to hear from you if you find any errors or omissions. It is also advisable to check with the particular establishment. Again, Chris Ingham has produced the symbols, which we hope do not need any explanation. Dr Su Sen and Hugh Muir, my predecessors as chairmen of the Panel, provided the wisdom, inspiration and support to update and revise the Guide.

Jr EDITOR'S NOTE. This volume is the result of many years' labour by the late Rev. JOHN Gregorson Campbell, while minister of Tiree during the years 1861 — to 1891. Much of the material was already collected before Mr. J. F. Campbell of Islay published his Popular Tales of the West Highlands in i860, and readers of Lord Archibald Campbell's volumes on Waifs and Strays of Celtic Tradition are already acquainted with the valuable work contributed to that series by the Rev. J. Gregorson Campbell. It is hoped that this volume on the Superstitions of the Scottish Highlands, full as it is of racy stories, may throw fresh light on an extremely interesting subject.

    agenda The Highland Council item 8 report PDI/ Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee no 61/16 2 November 2016 Housing Development Investment Report by Director of Development and Infrastructure Summary This report seeks approval for Highland’s Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP), which sets out proposals for affordable housing investment during 2017–2022. The report also seeks approval of grant assistance in support of affordable housing projects and for the purchase of land in support of housing development. Approval is also sought for Landbank funding to support further projects within the National Housing Trust initiative. The proposals contained within this report will assist in the meeting the Council’s overall affordable housing target of 1,700 new affordable houses by 2017. 1 Introduction 1.1 This report introduces the Highland’s Strategic Housing Investment Plan 2017- 2022, a draft of which is included as Appendix 1 of this report. 1.2 Local authorities’ Housing Strategies, and specifically their Strategic Housing Investment Plans (SHIPs), are the key statements of local housing development priorities which are used to guide funding. They assist the Government in targeting its Affordable Housing Investment Programme (AHIP). SHIPs contribute to achieving better prioritisation and making best use of public resources at a time when these are particularly constrained. 1.3 Strategic Housing Investment Plans (SHIPs) are developed in line with Scottish Government guidance which sets a submission date of 30 November 2016. This is pending Committee’s agreement of the priorities and prioritisation processes set out within Appendix 1 and in the knowledge that it contains a degree of over programming.
