Scots Schiltron,The Earl of Moray

John Dunbar,created first Earl of Moray c.1371,was the younger brother of George Dunbar,Earl of March. He fought alongside his brother at Otterburn and later continued the war personally by challenging Thomas Mowbray,Earl of Nottingham,to single combat. A safe-conduct was issued to Moray in March 1390 for his journey to England and the ensuing dual was fought at Smithfield on 28 May. Moray was unhorsed and seriously injured and died as a result at York on his way home in 1391.
