18th July 1743 saw three men from the Black Watch Regiment shot for desertion and mutiny at The Tower of London.
Following an order to march to London, the men of the Black Watch were uneasy. However, unrest was calmed by explaining that the King merely wishes to see a Highland regiment, which he has never seen. Upon arriving in England, however, the men of Black Watch discovered that the King was on the continent and not present to review the regiment. Rumours spread that the regiment was to be sent to the West Indies - not the duties of the Highland Watch for which the men had signed up.
On May 17th, 1743, approximately 100 men deserted, and set off to return to Scotland. They were intercepted by General Wade's regiment of horse, and after some negotiations, reached a surrender. All the deserters were tried by court martial, and sentenced to death. The capital sentence was commuted for all men except for Corporals Malcolm and Samuel McPherson, and private Farqhuar Shaw. The "pardoned" men were drafted into service with regiments in Minorca, Gibraltar, Georgia, and the West Indies, and the rest of the Highland Regiment left for Flanders.
To understand why the mutiny happened you have to look at the history of the Highland Regiments. In the year 1739, the six independent companies of the "Highland Watch", along with four newly-raised companies, were incorporated into the British Army as a Regiment of Foot under John, the Earl of Crawford. This Regiment was originally numbered the 43rd Highland Regiment, but was renumbered as the 42nd in 1749.
It has long been argued whether the soldiers really knew what was expected of them as a Regiment. Stuart of Garth, who had his book on the regimental history published in 1822, claims the men only saw becoming a Regiment as changing the title from that of an Independent Company and also changing their officers. They never thought they would be expected to serve outside the Highlands. The vast majority of the soldiers had never set foot out of Scotland. Authorities, however, argued that the Highlanders should have realised that, as a Regiment, they would be expected to serve overseas.
In the end three men out of the 139 were executed; Corporals Samuel Macpherson, Malcolm Macpherson and Private Farquhar Shaw. The rest were sent to other regiments serving abroad. The two executed Corporals had been from respected families in the Parish of Laggan. Samuel and Malcolm’s execution probably played a part in their families’ decision to support the Jacobite uprising of 1745. Private Farquhar Shaw was said to have been the best shot in the Regiment and was made an example of. If you visit Aberfeldy today you find, on the banks of the river Tay, The Black Watch Monument. It was unveiled in 1887 and standing on top of it is a Black Watch figure – a representation of Private Farquhar Shaw.
In 2006, a plaque was installed in the Tower of London to commemorate tome of those known to have been executed within it. The list contains the names of Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, two of Henry VIII’s wives. Also on that list are Corporals Samuel MacPherson, Malcolm MacPherson and Private Farquhar Shaw.
There's a full "narrative" of the mutiny from the late 19th century here http://www.siol-nan-gaidheal.org/manuscripts/mutiny/bwmindex.htm

Cape Breton greenhouse marks 100 years in business; Owner to celebrate half-century
Plant a seed, and see what might sprout. In the case of Earl MacPherson, it’s a century of doing business.
"Well, that's quite a milestone to me,” said MacPherson, long time owner/operator of Earl’s Greenhouse in Upper North Sydney, NS.
MacPherson has been running Earl's Greenhouse since 1973. Even before he took over, the business just outside of North Sydney had a long history of growth.
"Tom Munn started in 1923,” MacPherson explained. “He had gone to start agriculture college from grade 8, and then by 1925 the hay fever got to him so bad that he asked his brothers Jack and Charlie to come over. They left their jobs at the steel plant and they took over here."
This year marks the greenhouse's centennial birthday.
As if the 100-year anniversary celebration isn't enough, the man whose name has been on the door here since the 1970's is celebrating a major milestone this year of his own.
"Aug. 1 will be my 50th year,” MacPherson said.
The 71-year-old said he has been approached about selling the place.
"I'm still not really ready for retirement. I mean, I enjoy this,” he said.
MacPherson said he has enjoyed his customers over the years and he's been happy to give back to the community, doing things like donating to the local food bank.
Then among other perks, there's the peace and quiet that can come with the job.
"Just the amazement of watching just a little seed bloom into such a beautiful flower,” MacPherson said.
Metaphorically-speaking, you could say the same thing happened when the greenhouses were first built here a century ago.

On March 17th 1746, the Jacobite forces of clans Murray and MacPherson, attacked Campbell Militia Hanoverian troops around Blair Castle.
Before daybreak Jacobite forces, commanded by Lord George Murray, captured over 30 Hanoverian military posts between Dalwhinnie and Blair Castle. The Jacobites took over 300 prisoners and suffered no casualties.
Lord George Murray then commenced a siege of his ancestral home, Blair Castle. The siege was abandoned two weeks later, just before a relieving Hanoverian force arrived under the Earl of Crawford.Making it the last place to be besieged in the British Isles.
Again to show that the Jacobites were not only fighting the English I will point out that Blair Castle was General Murray's ancestral home and held by Murray his brother the then Duke of Atholl, James Murray so it was very much a family affair with one supporting Prince Charles and the other the Hanoverian government. With that the clan was divided between followers of each brother.
It is said when Lord George arrived at Blair he had ‘pipes playing and colours flying’.
