Portion of an article in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, VOL. XXVI July-December, 1829: "The late Earl of Eglinton, a distinguished member of a family not destitute of Celtic blood, and which has even been illustrious honour and patriotic feelings and principles, had a high opinion of the loyalty and bravery of the Canadian Highlanders, and left the following translation of one of their boat songs among his papers, set to music by his own hand." - Summary by David Lawrence
