	Duke of Argyll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The title Duke of Argyll was created in the Peerage of Scotland in 1701 and in the Peerage of the United Kingdom in 1892.
		The Duke of Argyll is the chief of the Scottish clan of Campbell and in this capacity is known as "MacCailean Mòr", which is Gaelic, for "Son of Colin the Great" referring to Cailean Mór of Lochawe (Colin of Lochow) who was killed in fighting with Alexander, Lord of Lorne in 1296.
		Thus, the Duke is one of the only five people to hold two different dukedoms, the others being the Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay, the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry, the Duke of Hamilton and Brandon, and the Duke of Richmond, Lennox and Gordon.

		The mansion is one of the principal seats of the Duke of Argyll.
		Argyll and Athole mustered their clansmen, and at the head of 7,000 men marched towards Stirling to rescue the King, but by the mediation of Bowes, the English ambassador, a compromise was effected between the hostile factions.

		Built for the traditional overnight Heysham-Belfast service, the Dukes were considerably larger than the ships of the same names that they replaced.
		After a period in which it seemed very possible the crossing might be shut altogether, the 'Lancaster' and the 'Argyll' were returned to their builders to have car decks installed onto their main decks.
		This conversion was rather more substantial than that carried out on the ships' sister as here the garage was to be accessed via a stern door and space for two coaches was made along the centreline at the stern in a small area with the required headroom.

	Creation by Law by Alfred Russel Wallace
		Speaking of the Humming Birds, the Duke of Argyll says: "In the first place, it is to be observed of the whole group that there is no connection which can be traced or conceived between the splendour of the humming birds and any function essential to their life.
		The Duke's argument is solely founded on the supposed analogy of the Creator's mind to ours as regards the love of Beauty for its own sake; but if this analogy is to be trusted, then there ought to be no natural objects which are disagreeable or ungraceful in our eyes.
		To be consistent in his views the Duke of Argyll must maintain that every one of the variations that have rendered possible the changes produced by man, have been determined at the right time and place by the will of the Creator.
