A VERY INTERESTING RELIC OF THE JACOBITE REBELLIONS OF 1715 AND 1745. General Wade 

 made the roads depicted in this map between 1726 and 1733 in order to over awe the High- 

 landers. It is dedicated by the cartographer, T. Willdey, to General Hawley, who was 

 defeated by the Young Pretender at Falkirk a few days after its publication. It is curious to 

 note that although dated 4 Jan.. 1746' it contains a plan of the dispositions of the opposing 

 forces at the battle of Culloden, which did not take place till April 16th of the same year.
