[Footnote 70: Rudri or Ruari is the Irish abbreviation of Roderic. The
person here meant is, no doubt, the second son of King Reginald, & the
same who in a donation to the abbey of Sandale, is stiled Rodericus de
Kintire filius Reginaldi. This Roderic, it seems, besides Allan &
Dougal, had another son Angus McRorie, Lord of Bute, whose daughter
and heiress Jean was married to Alexander sixth Lord High Steward,
Grand father to Robert II. King of Scotland. Robert, A.D. 1400., gave
Bute to his son John from whom the present family of Bute is lineally
descended.]
