Solution

The correct option is C King William III
William III wanted all Scottish clans to swear allegiance to him after he became King. When the MacDonald clan under Maclain got late in making their oath to him, he decided to create an example out of them. He sent 120 troops to the MacDonalds' homes and ordered the murder of all MacDonald men, women and children under the age of 70. Thus, option C is correct.
