"Allan and Penelope"-Allan the 14th captain of Clanranald fought in the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689 when he was a teenager. As a young man, he married Penelope, who was both beautiful and accomplished. Their home became a haven for Gaelic culture. The Jacobite Rising of 1715 ruined their charmed life.
"Fathers and Sons"-Charles Stuart proclaimed his father James the rightful king of Scotland and England.

Old Clanranald doubted the Stuarts' strength, but his son Young Clanranald raised a regiment for the Rising of 1745. A soldier's accidental shot killed Glengarry's son, and the soldier was executed by a firing squad that included the soldier's father, who hoped a well-placed bullet was cause instantaneous death. Donald of Scotus dreaded going into battle against a British regiment that included Donald's son. Alexander of Keppoch charged into a barrage of bullets; his natural son Angus Ban carried him off the battlefield. Harboring a Fugitive
