Died:
Mr. Malcom Fisher
By the death of Mr. Malcolm Fisher, of Bathurst, which took place on Tuesday last, we believe that the last opioneer settler of this district has passed away to the hearafter. Deceaced a the age of four years, came to this country with his parents, from Balquidder, Perthshire, Scotland, in 1817, when the family settled on what is now know as the Cunningham farm, Bathurst. He however, launched out for himself in early youth, by the assistance of his parents, and at the age of fourteen years came into possession of the farm at Harper owned by him at his death, and which he occupied for the long period of seventy-one years.

He married to Miss Margaret McNie, sister of the late Mr. John McNie, of Bathurst and Carleton Place, who died before him. They had eleven of a family - four sons and seven daughters - of whom all survive but one. They are: John, Forest, Ont; Archibald, Wyoming, Ont; Donald, Brigden, Ont; Malcolm (dead); Mrs. William Brownlee, Dalhousie; Mrs Robert Allan, Scotch Line; Mrs. John Anderson, Bathurst; Mrs. Hophal McFarlane and Mrs. Andrew Steels, Forest, Ont; Mrs. Thomas Harper, Fleming, Aseba, and Mrs D. Campbell, Ottawa.

Mr. Fisher died of cancer, and he bore the ravages of this dreadful disease with characteristic fortitude and patience. He was a true Highlander, and retained the Gaelic of his youth till his death. He was a man of strong individuality and had his full share of courage and determination. He was a Presbyterian and a life-long Liberal and a subscriber to the Courier almost since its beginning.

His funeral took place to Elmwood Cemetery, Perth, onThursday, and not withstanding the wet day, was a large one.

Died:
"On the last day of September a man named Malcolm Fisher, living in Bathurst, sent for me to come and see him. I found him weak and apparently dying, but I could get little information as the state of his soul. O that men were wise enough to prepare for death before it come: for the sake of his poor wife and children I wrote his will, and with some difficulty got it signed, for even this matter he had not attended to, in the time of health. He died about an hour after I left him."

(Research):Balquhidder - Rob Roy Mcgregor
Balquhidder was the scene of some of the exploits of Rob Roy, who is buried there. Rob Roy Mcgregor was born at Glengyle in 1671. He fought alongside his father in the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689 on the then successful Jacobite side. Upon the death of his father, Rob Roy became clan chief at the age of thirty.

Late in 1711 Rob Roy borrowed money from the Duke of Montrose to purchase cattle for the following year's market. But in early 1712 Rob Roy's head drover, having purchased the cattle, then sold it on and disappeared with the funds. Rob Roy returned from an unsuccessful search for the drover to find he had been bankrupted and outlawed by the Duke of Montrose, his lands had been seized and his family evicted. Rob Roy sought revenge on the Duke of Montrose through a sustained campaign of cattle-rustling, theft and banditry. This included kidnapping Montrose's factor, complete with over ?3,000 of rent money he was carrying at the time. Rob Roy was subsequently hunted as a common outlaw.

His family were evicted from their home and moved to Glen Dochart, whilst Rob Roy himself took shelter at Finlarig Castle in Killin. Rob Roy was captured in 1717 close to Balquhidder, but he managed to escape whilst crossing the River Forth and was subsequently recaptured in Dunkeld and sent to prison in Logierait.

However he again managed to escape from prison and in 1720 Rob Roy moved to Balquhidder Glen and a small shack at Inverlochlarig. Despite his dangerous lifestyle which included roles in the 1717 and 1719 Jacobite uprisings, Rob Roy died peacefully in his bed at home aged 63 at Inverlochlarig Beg on the 27th December 1734 and is buried in historical Balquhidder churchyard. His gravestone is inscribed with a line from MacGregor's Gathering by Sir Walter Scott, 'MacGregor Despite Them'.

The final Jacobite Rebellion at the Battle of Culloden in 1745 had disastrous consequences for the area. In Balquhidder glen, many clans including MacGregors, MacLarens and Stewarts had supported the forces of Prince Charles Edward, Bonnie Prince Charlie. Lands were forfeit and clansman and families burned out of their homes. The MacGregor estate Invercarnaig was laid waste and the remains of their burial ground are still visible at the top of Loch Doine.

The wearing of Highland dress was forbidden as was carrying arms. Even the bagpipe was outlawed, classed for the purpose of the Act, as weapon of war. In 1803, the MacLarens of Invernenty, at the west of Balquhidder glen , having held their lands since the Middle Ages emigrated to Nova Scotia.
