OXFORD: HORACE HART PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY FOOTNOTES: [1] Cameron. [2] Literally ‘The Fragrant One,’ suggesting freshness. ‘In primitive religious thought, the idea of godhead is specially connected with that of fresh unfading life, and the impurity which must be kept aloof is associated with physical corruption and death.’ [3] Cameron. [4] Cameron. [5] Mr. Cameron was a lineal descendant of the massacred chief of Glencoe. It was known that the three sons of the chief escaped on the night of that terrible massacre; but they were lost sight of, and historians could not tell what afterwards became of them. One of them fled over the hills into Morayshire, changing his name, and two of his descendants are to be found in a northern city to-day. The other two, escaped into Perthshire, took their mother’s name of Cameron--she was a Cameron of Lochiel. One of them, Hugh, afterwards emigrated to Canada, the other lived and died in Perthshire. His eldest son became the tax-collector of the village of Dunkeld, and his eldest son James went to Madagascar in 1826 as a missionary artisan (he had been instructed and greatly helped in his studies by the late Rev. Mr. Black, Congregational minister of Dunkeld). [6] Lovett, _History of the London Missionary Society_, vol. i, pp. 703, 704. [7] _Native Narrative of the Persecutions_ (unpublished).
