Às a sin tha Murchadh a' toirt Ailein chun Dun Bheag agus a' mìneachadh eachdraidh an an ionaid sin dha. A thuilleadh air a sin tha Murchadh dha thoirt dhan t-Sruthan chun Charragh-cuimhne Cogaidh a th 'aca sa sgìre agus ag innse mar a chuidich an t-airgead a tha a' choimhearsnachd a' faighinn bhon tuath-gaoithe sa sgìre leis an leasachadh a rinn iad air a' charragh-cuimhne.
