{130a} Anecdotes.

{130b} Stuart Papers. Lady Montagu was Barbara, third daughter of Sir John Webbe of Hathorp, county Gloucester. In July 1720 she married Anthony Brown, sixth Viscount Montagu.

{138} Pichot, in his Vie de Charles Edouard, obviously cites this doc.u.ment, which is quoted from him by the Sobieski Stuarts in Tales of the Century. But Pichot does not name the source of his statements.

{139} A French agent, Beson probably, whom Charles desired to dismiss, BECAUSE a Frenchman.

{141} Scott's Letters, ii. 208. June 29, 1824.

{144} For reasons already given, namely, that Madame de Va.s.se was the only daughter of her father by his wife, and that Mademoiselle Ferrand was her great friend, while the Prince addresses Mademoiselle Luci by a name derived from an estate of the Ferrands, I have identified Mademoiselle Ferrand with Mademoiselle Luci. This, however, is only an hypothesis.

{145} Some of Pickle's letters were published by Mr. Murray Rose in an essay called 'An Infamous Spy, James Mohr Macgregor,' in the Scotsman, March 15, 1895. This article was brought to my notice on June 22, 1896. As the author identifies Pickle with James Mohr Macgregor, though Pickle began to communicate with the English Government while James was a prisoner in Edinburgh Castle, and continued to do so for years after James's death, it is plain that he is in error, and that the transactions need a fresh examination. Mr.

Murray Rose, in the article cited, does not indicate the provenance of the doc.u.ments which he publishes. When used in this work they are copied from the originals in the British Museum, among the papers of the Pelham Administration. The transcripts have been for several years in my hands, but I desire to acknowledge Mr. Murray Rose's priority in printing some of the doc.u.ments, which, in my opinion, he wholly misunderstood, at least on March 15, 1895. How many he printed, if any, besides those in the Scotsman, and in what periodicals, I am not informed.

{149a} The portrait, now at Balgownie, was long in the possession of the Threiplands of Fingask. I have only seen a photograph, in the Scottish Museum of Antiquities.

{149b} MS. in Laing Collection, Edinburgh University Library.

{150a} A note of Craigie's communicated by Mr. Omond.

{169} May 4, 1753. Stuart Papers. To old Edgar.

{175} That is, probably, Pickle said to Jacobite friends that his money came from Major Kennedy.

{178} Lord Elcho knew it, probably from his brother.

{180} Elcho says he was in London, at Lady Primrose's. We have seen that Charles had had a difficulty with this lady.

{181} To this illness Glengarry often refers, when writing as Pickle.
