Simon Fraser Lovat Lord [1]

A Highland chief connected with Inverness, who, being outlawed, fled to France and got acquainted with the Pre tender, in whose interest he returned to Scotland to excite a rising, but betraying the secret to the government was imprisoned in the Bastille on his going back to France; on his release and return he opposed the Pretender in 1715, but in 1745 espoused the cause of Prince Edward; was arrested for treason, convicted, and beheaded on Tower Hill (1667-1747).
