 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.
Whilst Angus Macdonald was thus raging in Mull and Tiree, Sir Lauchlan Maclean went into Kintyre, spoiled, wasted, and burnt a great part of that country; and thus, for a while, they did continually vex one another with slaughters and outrages, to the destruction, well near, of all their country and people.

 Breeds of Livestock - Angus Cattle
MacDonald and Sinclair quote the Rev. James Playfair as having written in 1797, "There are 1129 horned cattle of all ages and sexes in the parish.
The presence of polled cattle in Aberdeenshire 400 years ago is proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, and it may generally be taked for granted that they were co-existent in various parts of northeastern Scotland, their purity being contingent on the degree of care exercised in breeding.
In Angus, the herds of William Fullerton, Lord Panmure, Lord Southesk, and Alexander Bowie contributed many of the Angus doddies that later became prominent in the breed.

The smack Mary Jane was pulled onto the beach at Resipoll for unloading and, expecting worsening weather, it was decided to place an anchor off-shore to draw her into deeper water.
The object in laying out the Kedge and warp was to pull out by it when we had the anchor and chain in the punt as we would thereby have greater purchase than with oars.
When they were near the end of the chain and when the boat was about 40 fathoms from the smack, I saw her go down stern foremost and both precipitated into the water.

 Uncle Fergus Remembers P/M Angus MacDonald   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Sadly, Pipe Major Angus MacDonald was not one of those honoured souls.
And even during his years as a teacher of pipers, from circa 1974 to circa 1992, Angus demanded --- and very often got --- perfectionism from his students wherever he travelled: from all across Scotland and the rest of Great Britain, to areas as diverse as Oman, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia.....
The Major's rendition of his own composition, "Sleep Dearie Sleep," was performed not only as a tribute to his father; but also, in memory of that one other man whose piping virtuosity would undoubtedly have a profound influence upon Stoddart's own subsequent piping career.........
