James Graham, Marquis of Montrose (1612-1650), Scottish soldier and royalist. In 1644, he was appointed lieutenant general in Scotland and commissioned to reconquer the country. He managed to enter Glasgow and summon a parliament, but he was eventually defeated in a surprise attack and escaped abroad. On his return in 1650, he was betrayed, captured and hanged by the Presbyterians in Edinburgh.
