The Story of the events leading up to the Battle of Drumclog as told in Sir Walter Scott's "Old Mortality." During the Recital, a few appropriate Psalms will be sung by May Smyllie, when it is hoped to convey to listeners the atmosphere of the hills and moors where the men of the Covenant were forced to worship.

The Battle of Airs Moss was fought on July 22nd, 1680, between Richard Cameron, with about sixty ill-armed followers, and the Troopers of Bruce of Earlshall, numbering one hundred and twenty. The conflict was very fierce, but Cameron's men were overpowered by the overwhelming numbers of their opponents, and forced to flee. Cameron and eight of his followers were killed; they were buried where they fell and a rude monument was erected over their remains. During the battle it is said that a severe thunderstorm broke over the combatants, which is referred to in this ballad.
