Interesting people in facts in this section:

Louis XV, King of France, had an affaire with Louise Julie de Mailly, Mademoiselle de Mailly, but also with her sister Pauline Felicite, Madame de Vintimille, and her sister Marie Anne, Duchesse de Chateauroux and her sister Diane Adelaide, Madame de Lauraguais. See the de Mailly family.

On the eve of the battle of Culloden in the Scottish Highlands, fought between the Duke of Cumberland's troops and the rebellious Jacobites in 1746, a shrieking human-headed monster with burning red eyes and black leathery wings hovered over the terrified soldiers. Called the skree, it
could be readily dismissed as fantasy, were it not for the disquieting fact that one of the eyewitnesses was none other than Lord George Murray, a well-respected general renowned for his level-headed outlook. It is said, that after Culloden while hidden in the Highlands, he read the Bible for months on end.   See Lord George Murray, 1694-1760, Murray, Dukes of Atholl
