 Conflicts of the Clans
Angus was then detained in captivity, until he did renounce his right and title to the Rhinns of Islay, which properly appertaineth to the Clan-Donald, and had been by them given in possession for their personal service.
Angus then replied that he needed not to mistrust him, seeing he had his son and his brothers pledges already, whom his friends might keep in their custody until his return; and that, for his own part, he did intend nothing against him, but to continue in all brotherly love and affection towards him.
Maclean, hearing this, seemed to be void of all suspicion, and so resolves to go to Angus's house; he carried with him James Macdonald, the pledge (his own nephew and the son of Angus), whom he kept always in his custody, therefore to save himself from danger, if any injury should be offered until him.

The Macleans of Duart had held the earlier office of Chamberlain to the Lord of the Isles, a title which was confirmed by the crown in 1495 even after the Lordship was abolished.
He and Maclean of Lochbuie were among the barons of the Isles who accompanied Donald Dubh to Ireland, and at the command of the Earl of Lennox, claiming to be regent of Scotland, swore allegiance to the king of England.
The quarrel between the Macleans and the Macdonalds of Isla and Kintyre attracted, in 1589, the serious attention of the king and council, thus the rival chiefs, with Macdonald of Sleat, were summoned to Edinburgh.
