Composite Character | |
| Old Mortality / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: John Balfour is one of Sharp's assassins and is identified as John Balfour of Burley (sic). Historically there was a John Balfour of Burleigh, who wasn't a covenanter and had nothing to do with the assassination. The real assassin was John Balfour of Kinloch. Scott appears to have been confused by the identical names rather than actually combining the two historical figures into one character. | |
