Looking back through the window of our tour bus at the moor, where thousands had fought a better equipped military, left me with a very eerie feeling. This battle had killed over 2000 Jacobites that day with another 500 or more killed in pursuit. Later I found out that 700 of those taken prisoner had been executed or died in prisons, with almost another 800 more loaded onto prison ships and transported to the colonies. These actions must have been a major horror and terror these brave Scottish Jacobites felt that day as they lay wounded and dying, to the fading sounds of the bagpipes, while gasping their last breaths. | Ghosts Of My Ancestors by William R Burnet, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
