The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from A Legend of Montrose by Walter Scott: "Let us go down," answered Lord Menteith, "and see how our muster

M'Aulay, and his English guests, while Allan, occupying the same
settle which he had filled the preceding evening, paid no
attention whatever to any one. Old Donald hastily rushed into
the apartment. "A message from Vich Alister More; [The
patronymic of MacDonell of Glengarry.] he is coming up in the
evening."
