1689年,威廉三世(1689—1702在位)接受了苏格兰的《权利宣言》(Claim of Right)而登上了苏格兰王位,英格兰和苏格兰再次共戴一主,但由于《权利宣言》的存在,王权受到了很大限制,忠诚于王权的势力被铲除了,苏格兰议会有了创制法案、议事自由、不受任何传讯或干预等前所未有的权力,因此“苏格兰议会能够领导起对英格兰和王权的抵制,这是它以前从未做过的,并且事实上在立法合并(即1707年的合并——笔者注)以前一直这么做”。为了避免英格兰与苏格兰两个王国之间发生冲突,威廉三世认识到了两个王国合并的重要性,但其统治期间发生的事件却严重恶化了两个王国的关系,使合并谈判无法进行。1692年,在镇压苏格兰高地人的叛乱中,威廉三世要求所有高地贵族向其宣誓效忠,格伦科(Glencoe)的麦克唐纳家族因为偶然原因耽误了宣誓的最后期限,威廉三世就怂恿坎贝尔家族的阿盖尔伯爵对麦克唐纳家族进行血腥的屠杀,即“格伦科屠杀”(Massacre of Glencoe),这一事件严重恶化了英、苏两个王国的关系。

格伦科屠杀:
Massacre of Glencoe
维基百科地址http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_of_Glencoe
In late January or early February 1692 the first and second companies of the Earl of Argyll's Regiment of Foot, which consisted of approximately 120 men under the command of Captain Robert Campbell of Glenlyon, were billeted on the MacDonalds in Glencoe, who received them in the hospitable tradition of the Highlands. Most of the regiment was recruited from the Argyll estates but only a minority actually bore the Campbell name. Others, including many of the officers, came from the Lowlands. Captain Campbell was related by marriage to old MacIain himself and so it was natural that he should be billeted at the Chief's own house. Each morning for about two weeks, Captain Campbell visited the home of Alexander MacDonald, MacIain's youngest son, who was married to Campbell's niece, the sister of Rob Roy MacGregor. At this stage, it is not clear that Campbell knew the nature of their mission; ostensibly they were there to collect the Cess tax, a property tax or assessment instituted by the Scots Parliament in 1690. The planning was meticulous enough for them to be able to produce legitimate orders to this effect from Colonel Hill, the man who had tried to help MacIain complete his oath in the first place, thus dispelling any suspicions the MacDonalds may have had. However, it was Colonel Hill who issued the orders to begin the massacre two weeks later.
On 12 February 1692, Captain Drummond arrived. Due to his role in ensuring MacIain was late in giving his oath, Drummond would not have been welcomed. As the captain of the 1st company of the regiment, the Grenadiers, he was the ranking officer, yet did not take command. Drummond was bearing instructions (above) for Robert Campbell, from his superior officer, Major Duncanson. He spent the evening playing cards with his unsuspecting victims and upon retiring, wished them goodnight and accepted an invitation to dine with MacIain, the chief, the following day.
Alasdair MacIain was killed while trying to rise from his bed by Lt Lindsay and Ensign Lundie but his sons escaped, as initially did his wife.(被杀死在床上典故的来历。) In all, 38 men were murdered either in their homes or as they tried to flee the glen. Another 40 women and children died of exposure after their homes were burned. The first clansman to be killed was Duncan Rankin. He was shot down as he tried to escape by crossing the River Coe near the chief's house.[4] Elsewhere, various members of the two companies found ways of warning their hosts. Two lieutenants, Lt Francis Farquhar and Lt Gilbert Kennedy even broke their swords rather than carry out their orders. They were arrested and imprisoned, but were exonerated, released and later gave evidence for the prosecution against their superior officers.
In addition to the soldiers who were actually in Glencoe that night, two other detachments, each of four hundred men were, according to the plan, to have converged on the escape routes. Both were late in taking up their positions. It is possible that a snowstorm made arrival on-time quite difficult—especially for those approaching over the Devil's Staircase from Kinlochleven; it is equally possible that they simply did not want to play any part in what they knew to be a heinous crime.
