The Marquess, Ardkinglas, Dougal of Inerawe, Dunstaffnage, Archibald Campbell of Baringar (sic) and Archibald, uncle of Campbell of Barbreck-Craignish, all officers of the Marquess's regiment, wernt to Kerrera where they killed fourteen of the MacDougalls and took a further six, as prisoners, to Inveraray where they were subsequently hanged.

Dougall MacDougall of Dunlach was seized and incarcerated in Innishconnell, where he was kept in chains with heavy irons on his arms and legs in great pain. As Captan of the Castle of Dunolly, MacDougall was forced to surrender, an terms, to the Marquess and was released when he resigned his lands of ballicharry and made payment of a thousand merks in cash to the Marquess.

The area around Dunollie subsequently became part of the semi-independent Kingdom of the Isles, ruled over by Somerled in the 12th century. On his death the MacDougalls became Lords of Lorne.[2] Dougall, Somerled’s son, held most of Argyll and also the islands of Mull, Lismore, Jura, Tiree, Coll and many others in the 12th century.
