Cargill, Donald (1619–1681)

Scottish Covenanter. He was made minister of Glasgow in 1655, but deprived of his living for opposing the Restoration in 1660. He fought at Bothwell Bridge in 1679, became a field preacher, and took part in the Sanquhar declaration of 1680. Soon afterwards he excommunicated the king and his officials at Torwood, near Stirling, and a reward was offered for his capture. Cargill was born in Rattray, Perthshire, Scotland. He was executed in Edinburgh.
