Excerpt from An Historical Account of the Settlements of Scotch Highlanders in America Prior to the Peace of 1783: Together With Notices of Highland Regiments and Biographical Sketches It is a noticeable fact that notwithstanding the valuable ser vices rendered by the Highland regiments in the French and In dian war, but little account has been taken by writers, except in Scotland, although General David Stewart of Garth. As early as 1822, clearly paved the way. Unfortunately, his works, as well as those who have followed him, are comparatively unknown on this side the Atlantic. I was led to the searching out of this phase of our history, not only by the occasional allusions, but specially from reading works devoted to other nationalities engaged in the Revolution. Their achievements were fully set forth and their praises sung. Why should not the Oppressed Gael, who sought the forests of the New World, struggled in the wilderness, and battled against foes, also be placed in his true light? If properly known, the artist would have a subject for his pencil, the poet a picture for his praises, and the novelist a strong background for his romance.
