Book Description
Excerpt from Traditionary Stories of Old Families, and Legendary Illustrations of Family History, Vol. 2 of 2: With Notes, Historical and Biographical It was in the course of those romantic days when fable was considered as good as truth, and Poetry and Prose walked hand in hand to gether, in the imaginative ignorance of the olden time, that the great family of the Hays first began to have an historical origin in Scotland. Every one has heard of the battle of Loncarty, and how the Scots fought, and the Danes fell; but every one has not heard all the veritable particulars thereof, which have been revealed to us by the sure word of black-letter history, and transmitted tradition, assisted, no doubt.
