Which Scottish clan was killed for not taking the oath?

Correct Answer: The MacDonalds of Glencoe

The MacDonalds of Glencoe were massacred in 1692 after their chief was late in swearing an oath of loyalty to William III.

Government soldiers, who had been billeted as guests, turned on their hosts in what became known as the Massacre of Glencoe — one of Scotland's most infamous betrayals.
