Excerpt from Memoirs of the Marquis of Montrose, Vol. 1 A renewed search in the Duke Of Montrose's charter room, for which his Grace afforded every facility, brought to light the depositions before the Committee of Estates of a number of individuals, some of them persons of dis tinction and others ordinary prisoners Of war, whose evidence abounds in minute and curious details. These serve to illustrate Montrose's campaigns, both at the out set of his career in 1644 when he distinguished himself against the rebels. In the north of England, and also throughout the whole series of those surprising Victories by which he more than fulfilled his desperate mission from the King. Other original documents were at the same time recovered, from the charter-room at Buchanan, which evince the vindictive spirit of the clerical government of Scotland, and justify the severest comments that can be passed upon those chiefs of the covenanting clergy, who hardened their hearts against the fact that the Almighty's throne is the throne of mercy.
