Are There Privato Armies?
It is illegal to have an army of your
own but the law winks at private
armies In one or two cases
The duke of Atholl had— for they
have now gone to the great war — a pri-
vate army of 200 men and has often
provided guards of honor for King
George from their ranks In fact
Queen Victoria once reviewed this pri-
vate army The duke of Atholl's pri-
vate army la for its size the finest body
of soldiers in the world all over six
feet in height sturdy Scotsmen picked
from the fittest of the fit
The duke of Fife also kept a pri-
vate army which numbered a hundred
men who were armed with huge pikes
exactly as the soldiers were armed
centuries ago
The Stuart Archers and the Farqu-
baraon Clansmen are two other private
armies of which Scotland can boast
The marquises of Donegal too have
for hundreds of years kept a private
army— Pearson's
