each-fuinn

sm Calp, herezeld {hereȝeld}. This, in early times, was the symbol of dependence paid by the native man to his lord, but in later ages it was exacted by the chief from his vassals. On the death of a tenant the best horse had to be given over. The custom was forbidden by law in 1617, but like most Celtic customs it survived long after, being still recognized in 1710 — Clan Donald, iii. [also each-ursainn].
