The Massacre
In 1692, the Massacre of Glencoe took place in the glen below, when soldiers of Clan Campbell, loyal to the English King, slaughtered members of Clan MacDonald on the grounds that the MacDonalds had not been prompt in pledging allegiance to the new monarchs, William and Mary. The women and children were forced into these mountains to die of exposure. When you stand watching a blood dawn over Glencoe you can almost hear the whispers of the ghosts from the past.
