Claverhouse

Mowbray (Walter) Morris (1847-1911) was the author of The First Afghan War (1878), Essays in Theatrical Criticism (1882), Poet's Walk: An Introduction to English Poetry (1882), Hunting (1885), Claverhouse (1887), Montrose (1892) and Tales of the Spanish Main (1901). "John Graham, Viscount of Dundee, best known, perhaps, in history by his territorial title of Claverhouse, was born in the year 1643. No record, indeed, exists either of the time or place of his birth, but a decision of the Court of Session seems to fix the former in that year-the year, as lovers of historical coincidences will not fail to remark, of the Solemn League and Covenant."
