Anne Scott remained in her native Highlands and eventually remarried,
living with her husband in a modest home near the place of her birth,
until her death in 1776. She was buried in the gravesite of her clan,
and on her tombstone, these words:
"Those who have left something beautiful behind them never die. They
live on in the hearts, the minds, the very souls of those who loved
them."
And on her grave a single, glorious rose.
The End
Acknowledgements
The author would like to gratefully acknowledge the help of Dr. Daniel
Szechi, Professor of History at Auburn University, who so unselfishly
read, and made historical notations upon the entire work, without
thought of acknowledgement or reward. While for artistic reasons I was
not always able to correct the inaccuracies he pointed out, I am aware
of them, and remain deeply grateful for his assistance in making the
book as authentic as the needs of the storyteller would allow.
