During the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, he took no part in the wars with the James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose and Alasdair Mac Colla Chiotaich MacDomhnaill, however many of his clan fought in the campaign. On his way to join the besieged Royalist garrison at Dunaverty Castle in 1647, he was captured by Coveanter Archibald Campbell, 1st Marquess of Argyll and swiftly hung with his sons at Whinny Hill, Kinlochkerran. Margaret, his wife, arrived shortly after the hanging and yelled curses at Archibald Campbell for his actions.
