The Battle of Dail-Riabhach was a Scottish clan battle that took place in the year 1576. It was fought between members of the Highland Clan Mackay, with the involvement of John Sinclair, 5th Earl of Caithness, chief of the Clan Sinclair.

John Mackay excluded his uncle Neil Mackay and took possession of the clan lands in Strathnaver. Neil claimed that his nephews John and Donald were Bastards and he took refuge with John Sinclair, Earl of Caithness (chief of Clan Sinclair). Neil obtained a company of men from Sinclair, Earl of Caithness who he sent with his four sons to invade Strathnaver. Neil Mackay's forces took possession of Strathnaver from his nephew John Mackay, who in turn took refuge with the Chattan Confederation to seek their support, leaving his brother Donald Mackay to try and defend their territory.
Donald Mackay, in the absence of his brother John surprised their unucle Neil Mackay at Dail-Riabhach and killed two of Neil's sons along with the most his company.

Major General William Adlam (1750-1823) was an English British Army soldier and artist. He was descended from a long line of distinguished soldiers.
Adlam served in the American War of Independence as a captain in the army in the 40th Regiment of Foot. His regiment's order book is preserved in the Library of Congress.
He was somewhat a renaissance man, an admirer of the French philosopher Voltaire and in 1780, whilst a lieutenant colonel, produced a print of Voltaire sitting at his desk.
He later served with Lord Nelson in the battles of Copenhagen, Ushant and the Nile, and was aboard the same ship with Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar, when Nelson was shot.
When the war with Napoleon broke out he served under Lords Wellington and Napier, and was quartered in the Netherlands until 1816. He then returned to Dover Castle, was made major-general in 1820, retired on half pay, and in 1823, died at 73 years of age, leaving a family of sixteen children.
