''Alexander, Prince of Looters'': "An example of the general lawlessness prevalent in the Highlands towards the end of the fourteenth century was the behaviour of Robert III's younger brother Alexander, Earl of Buchan, whose nickname was 'the Wolf of Badenoch'. Although appointed Justiciary of the Northern Lowlands he led the Highlanders in raiding the area. He was eventually deprived ot the Justiciary, but in 1390 he sacked Elgin Cathedral. At the same time one of his bastards, named Duncan, led a force of Highlanders into Angus and killed the sheriff of the county along with other notables.
Armed with bows and well-barbed arrows, with broadswords and leather targes, or shields, the Highlanders were lightly equipped and could move fast and far. They usually fought only as long as was required to load themselves with enough booty to take home. They had brought the art of acquiring booty in battle to a high degree, usually vanishing from the scene when the fighting became too severe and the prospects of loot were-poor.
Presumeably because of his sacking of Elgin Cathedral he was reviled by the clergy and his body was refused entry through the front door of Dunkeld Cathedral and had to be carried in through the back door and left behind the high alter screen out of sight of the parishoners whose lives he had so terrorised."-''Making of the Highlands'', Michael Brander, (published 1980 by Guild Publishing Printed, London and Edinburgh.), pp. 42, 44.
