Lorne's father, who had attempted to make peace with Cromwell's regime, warned him against becoming involved, leading to an estrangement.<a href="#cite_note-ugll-4">[4]</a> It has since been suspected that the political differences between Lorne and his father were exaggerated by the family in order to ensure they would prosper whichever political side won out,<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> though Lorne's biographer John Willcock felt that his Royalist sympathies were entirely genuine.<a href="#cite_note-willcock23-9">[9]</a> Glencairn's irregular forces prepared to invade the Lowlands, but efforts were hampered by constant quarrels between Glencairn's junior commanders. Lorne and Glengarry fell out to the point of drawing swords on each other and remained at odds.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Glencairn, for his part, distrusted Lorne.

Lorne refused to give precedence to Glencairn and took his own troops across a nearby river. For the rest of the day Glencairn feared an open battle, but the next night Lorne left his men and departed with only a few officers. The reason for this, according to Baillie, was that a letter from Lorne to the King had been intercepted in which he complained of Glencairn's behaviour, and Glencairn had ordered Glengarry to arrest him. A correspondent of <a href="/wiki/John_Thurloe" title="John Thurloe">John Thurloe</a> reported a version of events more discreditable to Lorne: that the intercepted letter was written to the general of the English forces, suggesting a plan for attacking Glencairn's men.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Activities_against_the_Commonwealth">Activities against the Commonwealth</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Archibald_Campbell,_9th_Earl_of_Argyll&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Activities against the Commonwealth" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Archibald_Campbell,_Lord_Lorne.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg/220px-Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="311" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="368" data-file-height="521"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 311px;" data-mw-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg/220px-Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="311" data-mw-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg/330px-Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d0/Archibald_Campbell%2C_Lord_Lorne.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Portrait of Archibald Campbell, Lord Lorne, by unknown artist, formerly in collection of the <a href="/wiki/Earl_of_Balcarres" title="Earl of Balcarres">Earl of Balcarres</a>.</figcaption></figure> In May 1654, Cromwell published his <a href="/wiki/Cromwell%27s_Act_of_Grace" title="Cromwell's Act of Grace">Ordinance of Pardon and Grace to the People of Scotland</a>, offering a general pardon for acts during the conflict. Lorne was, however, among the numerous exceptions to the pardon. In June he was reported as being reconciled with his father, Argyll, and as helping him to raise men for the English. The report was probably wrong, as in September he managed to capture a vessel loaded with provisions for Argyll's men.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Later in 1654, Lorne is thought to have joined <a href="/wiki/John_Middleton,_1st_Earl_of_Middleton" title="John Middleton, 1st Earl of Middleton">John Middleton</a>'s attempted insurrection, and by November he and his men were raiding his father's lands for cattle to feed Middleton's troops. Argyll was eventually compelled to ask for an English garrison to protect him from his son. By the beginning of December, however, Lorne had to retire to a small island with only four or five men, and on 16 December <a href="/wiki/George_Monck" class="mw-redirect" title="George Monck">George Monck</a> wrote to Cromwell that Lorne was to meet his father and would probably come over to the Protector if allowed.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Lorne, however, informed Argyll that he could not capitulate without Middleton's formal approval. Lorne was clearly still in communication with Charles, as in December the latter wrote to Lorne from his exile in <a href="/wiki/Cologne" title="Cologne">Cologne</a>, thanking him for his constancy to Middleton in all his distresses, acknowledging his service to the Royalist cause, and promising future rewards.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> On 31 March, Lorne eventually received instructions from Charles, through Middleton, in which he was urged to lose no time in taking such a course, by capitulation or otherwise, as he should judge "most fit and expedient to save his person, family, and estate." He is spoken of as having been "principallie engaged in the enlyvening of the war, and one of the chief movers;" and his "deportments in relation to the enemy and the last war are beyond all paralell". Another letter to the same effect from Middleton reached him in April, dated from Paris, in which he is similarly praised. Both of these letters were produced at his trial in 1681, in an attempt to reaffirm his history of loyalty to Charles.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Later in 1655, probably in May, conditions for Lorne's surrender were drawn up and finally received Cromwell's approval in August.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> These were that Lorne and the heads of clans serving him should come in within three weeks; that he should give security for £5,000, his officers and vassals giving proportional security; that Lorne should have liberty to march with his horses and arms (the horses to be sold in three weeks); and that he and his party should enjoy their estates without molestation, and should be freed from all fines or forfeiture. By 8 November the arrangement had been formalised and garrisons were left at <a href="/wiki/Lochaber" title="Lochaber">Lochaber</a> and <a href="/wiki/Dunstaffnage_Castle" title="Dunstaffnage Castle">Dunstaffnage</a> to ensure Lorne's promises were kept.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Despite his surrender, Lorne was carefully watched by <a href="/wiki/Roger_Boyle,_1st_Earl_of_Orrery" title="Roger Boyle, 1st Earl of Orrery">Lord Broghill</a>, who bribed his servants, and who sent accounts of his movements to Cromwell's spymaster <a href="/wiki/John_Thurloe" title="John Thurloe">John Thurloe</a>. On 20 November Broghill urged Lorne's arrest purely in order that enemies more dangerous at the time might think themselves unobserved.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> By the following January, however, Lorne had again declared for Charles Stuart, and had taken the island and garrison of <a href="/wiki/Isle_of_Mull" title="Isle of Mull">Mull</a>. On 8 January, Thurloe was notified that Lorne had a meeting of all his friends (probably to organise his debts, which were substantial).<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Lorne came to a reconciliation with his father in late March: the latter brokered further agreements with the English Protectorate – of which one was that he or Lorne, whichever the parliament might direct, should go to England whenever desired, provided they had freedom within a compass of twenty miles, and leave to have audience of the council whenever they wished.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Arrest,_imprisonment_and_head_injury">Arrest, imprisonment and head injury</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Archibald_Campbell,_9th_Earl_of_Argyll&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Arrest, imprisonment and head injury" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> Despite his capitulation, Lorne was still regarded with great suspicion. On 13 May 1656, Broghill reported that he was back in correspondence with Charles, repeating the warning later in the year. Broghill suspected that Lorne had been appointed, with Fairfax, to head another Scottish revolt. Probably in consequence of Broghill's information, a new oath was imposed upon the Scottish nobility at the beginning of 1657, whereby they were compelled to swear their renunciation of the Stuarts, and their adherence to the Protectorate. Lorne refused the oath and was immediately imprisoned in Edinburgh castle.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> In August 1657, Broghill urged that he and Glencairn, as the two most dangerous persons then in Scotland, should be sent to England, where they would have less opportunity for "trinketing".<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> While Lorne was confined in the castle of Edinburgh a strange accident befell him in March 1658 during a game of "bullets", a form of <a href="/wiki/Irish_road_bowling" title="Irish road bowling">bowling</a>.

Several later historians speculated that some of his erratic behaviour, and occasional fits of temper, in later life, can be explained by it.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] The date of his release is not known, but it was probably in March 1659–60, when Lauderdale and the other prisoners taken at Worcester were set free.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"><h2 id="At_the_Restoration">At the Restoration</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Archibald_Campbell,_9th_Earl_of_Argyll&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: At the Restoration" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> At the 1660 <a href="/wiki/Restoration_of_Charles_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Restoration of Charles II">Restoration of Charles II</a>, Lorne went to London and was received kindly by the King.

He devoted a great deal of attention to planning the gardens at Inveraray, and was particularly interested in tree raising and planting, seeking advice from <a href="/wiki/John_Evelyn" title="John Evelyn">John Evelyn</a> on the subject.<a href="#cite_note-willcock152-12">[12]</a> His plan was to stock the gardens themselves with fruit trees, and to thickly plant ornamental trees around so that the house had the appearance of rising out of a wood: he had a particular fondness for <a href="/wiki/Elm" title="Elm">elms</a>.<a href="#cite_note-willcock152-12">[12]</a> He also devoted time to the production of salt <a href="/wiki/Herring" title="Herring">herrings</a> and distilling <a href="/wiki/Whisky" title="Whisky">whisky</a>, hoping to create an export trade to England, and sent samples of his products both to Lauderdale and to Charles II.<a href="#cite_note-willcock152-12">[12]</a> Although Argyll had some involvement in the religious disputes of the period, acting to disarm the <a href="/wiki/Covenanters" title="Covenanters">Covenanters</a> in Kintyre, he was regarded as one of the moderates on the Privy Council.

It again appeared when the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Rullion_Green" title="Battle of Rullion Green">Pentland Rising</a> took place: Sharp would not allow Argyll's forces to participate, fearing that he and his men would join the rebels.

He then prevaricated over taking the test himself, despite being warned that his earlier complaints had put him in a dangerous position.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Eventually, he took the oath, but added the caveat "only in as far as it is consistent with itself".<a href="#cite_note-hdse-5">[5]</a> Argyll seems to have been under the belief that this qualified version of the oath had been cleared with the Duke of York, but it was enough for an exasperated James, backed by Argyll's enemies, to have him arrested on 9 November and charged with treason, assuming the legislative power, perjury, and the old Scottish capital offence of "leasing making" (i.e. libelling the king, his family, or court, with the intention of sowing dissension between the king and his subjects).<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Argyll was put on trial, on 12 December 1681, before Queensberry and four other judges. After Lockhart's defence the court adjourned; the question of fact was next day brought before a jury composed mainly of Argyll's enemies; Montrose, his hereditary foe, sat in court as chancellor. Argyll refused to defend himself. The jury acquitted him of perjury in receiving the oath in a false acceptation, and agreed with the judges on the other counts. Application was made to Charles for instructions by the council, and for justice by Argyll. Public opinion in both England and Scotland was outraged by Argyll's treatment, and blame was attached to the Duke of York in particular.<a href="#cite_note-willcock277-18">[18]</a> <a href="/wiki/George_Savile,_1st_Marquess_of_Halifax" title="George Savile, 1st Marquess of Halifax">George Savile, 1st Marquess of Halifax</a> told Charles that in England they would not "hang a dog" on the pretext under which Argyll had been sentenced in Scotland.<a href="#cite_note-willcock275-19">[19]</a> It was given out – at least by pro-Royal sources – that Charles and James were merely hoping to ensure Argyll was humbled and stripped of his judicial powers, rather than actually executed.<a href="#cite_note-willcock265-20">[20]</a> On 22 December, the king's letter reached the council; and, questionably, sentence of death as well as of forfeiture was pronounced in Argyll's absence on the 23rd.

On 20 December, however, his stepdaughter Sophia Lindsay obtained leave to visit him; she brought with her a countryman as a page, dressed in a wig and with his head bound up as if he had been in a fight. He and Argyll exchanged clothes, and remarkably the ruse proved successful.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Lindsay left the castle in floods of tears, accompanied by Argyll. Some of the guards almost discovered the disguise at the last minute, but were successfully distracted, and at the gate Argyll stepped up behind the coach. On reaching the customhouse, he slipped quietly off into one of the narrow wynds adjacent. He first went to the house of <a href="/w/index.php?title=George_Pringle_(politician)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="George Pringle (politician) (page does not exist)">George Pringle</a> of <a href="/wiki/Torwoodlee" class="mw-redirect" title="Torwoodlee">Torwoodlee</a>, who had arranged for the escape, and by him was conducted to William Veitch, in Northumberland, who in turn brought him, travelling under the name "Mr. Hope", to London.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> In London, Argyll was sheltered by <a href="/wiki/Ann_Smith_(activist)" title="Ann Smith (activist)">Ann Smith</a>, wife of a rich sugar-baker.

Among their papers, letters from Argyll in cipher were found. The letters were sent to Scotland, and the countess was summoned in December 1683 to decipher them. She admitted that they were in Argyll's writing but claimed she had burnt the only key she had.

Argyll, it appeared, had remonstrated with other Whig conspirators about their rejection of his proposal that he should be provided with £30,000 and 1,000 English horse. They offered £10,000 with 600 or 700 horse, the money to be paid by the beginning of July, and Argyll was then to go at once to Scotland and begin a revolt. He gave an account of the standing forces, militia, and heritors of Scotland, who would be obliged to appear for the king, to the number of 50,000. Half of them, he said, would not fight. He also said that his party needed only money and arms, and asked Holmes to communicate fully with his messenger from Holland.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Holmes was himself arrested and examined on 28 June 1683, and from his replies it appeared that Argyll was then in London. In October Preston wrote from Paris, informing Halifax that Argyll had his agents in France, and added his belief that he had, after consultation with his friends in Holland, gone back to Scotland. On 28 and 29 June 1684, Spence was examined before the English privy council, but he said nothing against Argyll. In July, he was sent to Scotland and was tortured; but no more was learnt from him, and he was eventually released. In September 1684, Argyll's charter chest and family papers were found concealed in a tenant's house in Argyllshire.<a href="#cite_note-DNB-7">[7]</a> Instructors at <a href="/wiki/Benmore_Botanic_Garden" title="Benmore Botanic Garden">Benmore Outdoor Centre</a> maintain that Scots law meant that the forfeit estates could not be transferred without the documents, which were supposedly concealed in the Paper Caves in the hillside adjacent to <a href="/wiki/Loch_Eck" title="Loch Eck">Loch Eck</a>.<a href="#cite_note-User-22">[22]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(7)"><h2 id='The_"Argyll_expedition"'>The "Argyll expedition"</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Archibald_Campbell,_9th_Earl_of_Argyll&action=edit&section=11" title='Edit section: The "Argyll expedition"' class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-7 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-7"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Argyll%27s_Rising" title="Argyll's Rising">Argyll's Rising</a></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Planning">Planning</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Archibald_Campbell,_9th_Earl_of_Argyll&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Planning" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> While in Holland, Argyll had become associated with the <a href="/wiki/Duke_of_Monmouth" class="mw-redirect" title="Duke of Monmouth">Duke of Monmouth</a>.

Argyll made great efforts to convince Monmouth of the viability of a joint plan of invasion, claiming he could count on a large number of men from among his tenantry in Scotland,<a href="#cite_note-willcock336-23">[23]</a> although he was among those who insisted that Monmouth should promise never to declare himself king.

At <a href="/wiki/Campbeltown" title="Campbeltown">Campbeltown</a> Argyll issued a declaration: James had caused the death of Charles, Monmouth was the rightful heir, and that by him he had been restored to title and estates.
