THE CLAN GILLEAN *

We copy the following notice of the

July 21 :—

ft is with unusual pleasure that welcome thie fine volume, which emanates from the press of a Prince Euward [sland publieher. The book is written by Rev. A. McLean Sinclair, an occasional and valued contributor to the “Qban Times,” saad deals with tne history, genealogy, and family ramifications of the great Clan Gillean, or MacLean. ‘To bave sccumuls ated the mass of materisls which the writer here presents to us must have re- quired a vast amount of patience, time, re- search; tor prinied works must Lave been ransacked, records, wherever poe- sible, examined and fanily papers aad traditions cousulied without stint. The result vu: Mr. Sinclair’s labours is an uo- qualified paccess; and the clan to whicu be has the honor to be attached is to be copgratulated upon the acquisition of a record, or Memorial Roll, so clearly and capably aet forth.

fbedisputed poimtotthe chiefship of the Clan MacLean is decided by Mr. Sin- clair in favour of Sir Fitzroy MacLean, though, as we are all aware, mauy people bestowed th » , osition upon the worthy ad respected Laird of Lochbuie. Both meno are held in high esteem; and it is rather tne clan’s good furtune to have now houours divided but honours augmented in regard to their chieftainebip.

On this head the author . flirms that Sir Fi:zroy Donald MacLean is the “twenty- first in lineal de-cent from the founder of the clan, of which heis the worthy and hoooured Ceann-Cionidh.” He explains the term thus :—

**A clan includes, firat,jthose who claim descent from @ Common avncesicr, and use the name of that ancestor as their sur- name. It includes, secondly, ail wuo joined it by adopting its name as their own. There are thus, in al! clans, clans- men by descent aod clansmen by adop- tion. At the present day, however, it 18, 88 8 general rule, impossible to distin-~ guish the one class from the other.

“The man who stands at the head ofa clan aod represents (tbe founder o1 it is known ic Gaelic es =ceann-cinnidh, tbe kenkinnie, or clan-vead. The represen tative of a brauch of a clan is known as an ceann-taigve, the keoue, or he@use-head. The woru ceava-ciuaidh is generaily ren~ dered into Englieh oy the term chief, and the word c’ann-taighe by tue icru chief- lalos

“The English word chiet ie ased in two distinct senses in counectiou with the clans. Itis used, first, asthe equivalent of the word kenkinuvie ; and, secundiy, in the sente of feudal superior, or landlord. In the latter sense Campbell of Brradal- bane was chef of tue Maclatyree of Giennee ; iu ibe former sense he was not ; the Maclity.cs tau a kevkinaie Of their own.”

The book starts with a running synop- eis, clearly and interestingly expressed, of the Kings of Scotiand, then of ine leading cians ot Scotiand. Cuapter Il. begins with the origin of the Clan Gillean, and thereafier is traced, siep by step, the main line and its rem fications down to tae present day. The record is so happily set forth thatit is hard to tear oneself away from dwelling ujee old and honoured names, wud the pam:@cuf ibose whu even now way be living in our midst. To o MacLean the book must be entrancing ; there is no duil description ; nor is there a mere perfunctory Cataloguing of sames. It wall Jiviog, actual and piquanily sei down.

Mr. Sinclair, with the modesty of a fine netare, makes full acknowledgment of ibe belp be bas received from various friends in the compiling of bis book, The iu#okes are just aud no doubi dne. But iu how Many cases are the brains of a trend or acquaintance picked, and no: « word, or it may be only a bare word of thenks flung out for tavors received ! With wo balung pen, bat with ready avewsl, Mr. MacLean Sinclair speaks of vie iodebveduess to Sir Firzroy MachLeac,
