Edinburgh, June 6. 1685
This day we have an account, that upon Tuesday last a party from the Marquis of Atholl came to Glendarroch, where Charles Campbell lay with 120 foot and 12 horse. After a brisk fight, Campbell narrowly escaping capture, fled with his men and horse to his boats. Leaving two prisoners and one killed in the hands of Atholl.
We also have an account, that on Wednesday last the Earl of Argyll sent Sir John Cochrane with 100 men and two ships to Greenock. Here their landing was opposed by a troop of Militia horse. This troop together with some gentlemen from the town, rode down to the boats and fired their pistols at the landing party. But when the cannon played upon them from the ships, as well as small shot from the boats. With this, the gentlemen and troop were obliged to retire. This party of the Rebels then took what meal and victuals they could find in the town before returning to the Isle of Bute.
We have word that his majesties ships, the Falcon and the Mermaid, together with a yacht are now lying at anchor near that Isle. Whilst we have an account of Captain Hamilton’s arrival in another of the Kings ships and soon after we hope to have a good account of the rebels.
