Farewell even to our Scottish name, so famed in martial story...

Another pivotal set of chapters. It's all coming together now...

Next week we'll read Part IV chapters 5 and 6.

Others have covered these chapters so much better than I can, and have picked up on details that I've missed. But a highlight for me is the fact that they're holding hands in front of a witness for nearly a whole page.

I, too, love Mullins. He's so kind. I also love the very correct aide-de-camp. That's a wonderful bit of characterisation.

An excellent highlight, thank you for pointing it out :D

Hehe, I liked the very correct aide-de-camp too!

Mullins and the aide-de-camp were both fantastic! I was genuinely worried about Keith getting found in Ewen's room in case Mullins got in trouble - I just want him to get his pension! I love how much thought Broster puts into even the most minor characters.
