leader, and that KennethIII,who com-
manded the Scots in person, dipped. his
fingers in the blood of his foe and
smeared them over the chieftain's tar-
get. The Earl of Errol bears on a;
white shield three red escutcheons '- his
crest is a falcon, his supporters twohus-
bandmen upholding ox -yokes, and his
;motto - is "Serva jugum ;" all of which
have traditional reference-. to the per-
formances of the "old man Hay" and
his two sons Sereld and Achaius at the
battle of Lougcarty, near, Perth; also
'between the Scots and the Danes, and
in the reign of Kenneth III. The
Scots were getting the worst of it, when
the Hays, who were ploughing near the
scene of the fight, armed themselves
with their ox -yokes, and manfully at-
tacked the Danes iu a narrow pass.
The Scots rallied by force of their ex-
ample, and in the end gained a com-
plete victory. As a reward the King
granted to the "old limn Hay" as much
land in the Carse of Gowrie as a falcon
flying from his fist should measure out
before perching, which happened to be
about six miles, and assigned to him
and his two sons the three escutcheons
for their arms, since they had been that
day the three protecting shields of Scot-
land.
