The halting of Edward I. With his army at Auchterarder was not the only occasion upon which Auchterarder received an embattled host. In 1332 the Scottish army of Donald, the Earl of Mar, strong, lay at Auchterarder previous to the disastrous Battle of Dupplin; I and in 1559 the army of the Dowager Queen Mary, under the Duke of Hamilton and Monsieur d'oysel, lay there, prepared to encounter the Lords of the Congrega tion.2 The most disastrous military visit and the last was when the Earl of Mar, in I 716, burnt the town.
