(») " See " Uiddell," p. 572, where Lord Mansfield's " brilliant discovery that must convulse and electrify Scottish legal antiquaries" is severely ridiculed. This was no less than that there were Baronies " by writ" in Scotland as well as in England and that " the creation of the Lord of the Isles in 1476 was by writ." ( b ) It is possible that the forfeiture alluded to in grauts of certain of his lauds in 1498 by the Crown may allude to the [earlier] forfeiture of 1475. {') After his death the peerage title was never assumed. Of the two persons named in the spec, rem-, John had d., a. p. legit , 20 years before his father, while Angus, who tried to keep possession of the Isles as against the King, d., B.p. legit., before 1503. There appears to have been a rising by the western chiefs in 1404, in favour of the illegit. son of Angus, and again, in 1513, in favour of Sir Donald (Gauja) grandson and h. of Celestine, an illegit. br. of John, Earl of Ross. Subsequently, Donald Macdou.dd of Slate, great grandson and h. of Hugh, another illegit. br. of the said Earl John, asserted by force his claim to the hirdship oj the Isles (as heir male of John, Earl of Ross), and was shot dead 1537 and attainted. The Barons Macdonald of Slate [I.], are heirs male, though not heirs ycncrul of this Donald. In " Riddell," p. 572, note 2, the learned author remarks that " from a consideration of the evidence in the matter.it now strikes me that the Macdoualds of Dunovaig aid (Jlins, of whom the noble family of Autrem are represented as being sprung, seem to have the l ight to the lawful male representation and chieftainship of these Macdonalds, Lords oj the Isles."
