This work is a collection of speeches, letters, journals, and other documents relating specifically to Prince Charles Edward Stuart and the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745. The primary focus of the text is to provide a profound insight into the lives and struggles faced by those loyal to the Prince during this turbulent period in Scottish history. The opening of this compilation introduces the thoughtful and poignant reflections of Robert Lyon, who writes a farewell letter to his mother and sisters before his execution for his role in the Jacobite cause. In this letter, Lyon expresses his steadfast faith, his reflections on suffering, and his deep loyalty to his beliefs, urging his loved ones to remain strong in their convictions. The narrative is rich in emotional depth, reflecting both personal and collective grief related to the political turmoil of the time, and establishes a backdrop for subsequent documents that underscore the significant sacrifices made by those involved in the Jacobite Rebellion.
