As the long, late afternoon shadows of April 14, 1746 crept away toward the shores of Ireland and points west the Cameron men arrived in Inverness....
...Based upon reported casualties of the other clans on the Jacobite right wing it is conservatively estimated that out of the 700 Camerons who were on the field of Culloden on 16 April 1746, approximately 225 were killed and 150 wounded.
Prisoner records indicate that only 17 Camerons were taken from the field alive and as prisoners.
The other 133 "estimated" wounded were bayoneted or shot where they lay, or would soon die in confinement.
