like Glengarry at the same date, ‘very weake.’ He had caught a cold, with a relapse at the masked ball of the Lundi Gras, where he met the Prince. ‘They now believe Pickle could have a number of Highlanders even in London to follow him.’ Nothing can be transacted in the Highlands without his knowledge, as his Clan must begin the play.’[140] The scheme is a night attack on the Palace of St. James’s. Pickle has often discussed it with his friend, the Earl Marischal, Frederick’s ambassador to the French Court.[141] Here, then, are the following points shared in common by Pickle and Glengarry. (1.) Both in November 1752 are engaged in a deep Jacobite Plot. (2.) Both are expected to lead a force of Highlanders, ‘even in London.’ (3.) No rising can take place among the Clans without each of them. (4.) Both are in correspondence with Rome. (5.) Both suffer from a severe illness at the same time, and are left very ‘weake’. (6.) Both are friends of Baron Kennedy. (7.) Both frequently visit the Earl Marischal in Paris. That Glengarry visited the Earl in 1753 I cannot prove by independent evidence. But I can show, by independent evidence, that he, as well as (by his own statement) Pickle, did so at an approximate date. Glengarry had known the Earl since 1744. Here is another spy’s undated testimony (1752-1754) to Glengarry’s familiarity with the Earl Marischal in Paris, about this date, when Pickle haunts the old exile.[142] ‘Macdonald of Glengarry, goes by the first of these names, lives at a _Baigneur’s_ in the _Rue Guenegaud_, and keeps one Servant out of Livery, and two in Livery. When he first came to Paris he kept a _Carosse de Remise_ by the month, but now only hires one occasionally to make his visits, which are chiefly to Lord Ogilvie Mr. Ratcliffe Mrs. Carryl of Sussex Mrs. Hamilton (Lord Abercorn’s Cousin who has changed her Religion and lives with Mrs. Carryl) The 3 Messrs. Hayes (who are cousins and lodge at the _Hotel de Transylvanie, Rue Conde_) Macloud } at Roisins, a Coffee House in the Rue Vaugirard Fitzgerald } Lord Pittenweemys, the Earl of Kelly’s Son, at the _Hotel d’Angleterre, Rue Tarrane_ Sir James Cockburn, at the _Caffe de la Paix_, in the _Rue Tarane_. Lord Hallardy } at a _Baigneur’s_ on the Estrapade where Mr. Gordon } they keep themselves conceal’d, Mr. Mercer } L. Cromarty } Frequently to the Jesuits’ College. ‘_And never fails going to Lord Marshal_, whose Coach is often lent him when he has none of his own. ‘N.B.—Tuesday 9th. Janry. Macdonald waited in his own Coach from ten o’clock at night till past eleven, in the _Rue Dauphine_, when a Person took him up in a Chariot, who, by the description, is believed to be Lord Marshal. It is about that time that the Pretender’s Son is suppos’d to have been in Paris.’
