“The wind blows across Loch Fyne and hammers at the walls of Inveraray Castle as if to carry the sound of a piper hanged near there by Montrose and his army, before the present castle was built. Though little is known of the piper, he is said to have received his fate with honour, and the drummers played, and the women and children were forlorn as he was led to the gallows. The piper is seen and heard now and then in the remote castle where he appears on the stairs as well as in the Blue Room and the Library. “
