Above the middle size and finely proportioned, the Highland dress, which he wore in its simplest mode, set off his person to great advantage.

He wore the trews, or close trowsers, made of tartan, chequed scarlet and white; in other particulars his dress strictly resembled Evan's, excepting that he had no weapon save a dirk, very richly mounted with silver.

His page, as we have said, carried his claymore; and the fowling-piece, which he held in his hand, seemed only designed for sport.

He had shot in the course of his walk some young wild-ducks, as, though CLOSE TIME was then unknown, the broods of grouse were yet too young for the sportsman.

His countenance was decidedly Scottish, with all the peculiarities of the northern physiognomy, but yet had so little of its harshness and exaggeration that it would have been pronounced in any country extremely handsome.
