[88] It is plain that the account given on [p. 144], and said by the Informer to be ‘in Clunie’s writing,’ is absolutely wrong, cannot be by Cluny, and is meant to incriminate that chief. Not only are the 6,000 louis carried to Charles by Kennedy omitted, but the ‘treasure’ intercepted by Downan and Glenevis does not appear, while 2,000 of the 27,000 louis are left out of the reckoning. ‘The State of Clunie McPherson’s Intromissions,’ in short, is a fraudulent document. It bears traces of confused manipulation in various interests.
