Westminster Conscripts Under The Training Act by James Gillray. Published Sept. 1st, 1806. This plate satirizes the attempts of the Whig faction to establish an "ignominious" peace with Napoleon. In the image, Napoleon has given the command to "ground arms." Several of the Whigs, including George (wearing a cockade in his hat) obey the command. The tall, skinny, startled-looking fellow with the big hat, who has just accidentally discharged his musket into the air, is the Earl of Moira, who fought in the Revolution as Lord Rawdon.

John James FARRINGTON married, in Agra in 1820, my 2nd great-grandmother, Jane MacLEOD (c.1801-1876). Her elder sister, Flora Loudoun MacLEOD (c.1800- ?) had married in Agra in 1817. According to family legend the girls went out to India to join their cousin, Flora MURE-CAMPBELL (1780-1840), Countess of Loudoun. These girls were all granddaughters of John MacLEOD (c.1714-1786), 11th Chief of the MacLeods of Raasay, my 4th great- grandfather. Flora MURE-CAMPBELL had married (1804) Francis RAWDON-HASTINGS (1754-1826), Earl of Moira, who arrived in India in 1813 as Governor-General, was created Marquess of Hastings in 1817, and left India in 1823.
