Parl. Of July 14. 1690. See also the account of the battle in one of Burt's Letters. Macpherson printed a letter from Dundee to James， dated the day after the battle. I need not say that it is as impudent a forgery as Fingal. The author of the Memoirs of Dundee says that Lord Leven was scared by the sight of the highland weapons， and set the example of flight. This is a spiteful falsehood. That Leven behaved remarkably well is proved by Mackay's Letters， Memoirs， and Short Relation.

FN 382 Whether the attainder of Lord Russell would， if unreversed， have prevented his son from succeeding to the earldom of Bedford is a difficult question. The old Earl collected the opinions of the greatest lawyers of the age， which may still be seen among the archives at Woburn. It is remarkable that one of these opinions is signed by Pemberton， who had presided at the trial. This circumstance seems to prove that the family did not impute to him any injustice or cruelty； and in truth he had behaved as well as any judge， before the Revolution， ever behaved on a similar occasion.
