At breakfast, on September 13, Montrose learned that Leslie was attacking.

What followed is uncertain in its details.

A so-called "contemporary ballad" is incredibly impossible in its anachronisms, and is modern.

In this egregious doggerel we are told that a veteran who had fought at Solway Moss a century earlier, and at "cursed Dunbar" a few years later (or under Edward I. ?), advised Leslie to make a turning movement behind Linglie Hill.

This is not evidence.
