Walter Leslie

Along with his elder brother Norman, he obtained safe conduct through England on his way to Prussia to participate in a crusade against the pagans of that region.

He must have gone there more than once, for he was present at the Battle of Pontvallain in 1370, where he proved instrumental in the English defeat, and was rewarded by King Charles with a yearly pension of two hundred gold francs.

Later that year, David obtained from Edward III of England a safe passage for Walter and Norman to travel to the Holy Land.

After this, he appears to have remained in Scotland for a time, taking a prominent part in public affairs and frequently witnessing royal charters.

Although Alexander did eventually inherit the earldom, de facto control of Ross passed into the hands of the Earl of Buchan, aka the "Wolf of Badenoch", who was Countess Euphemia's second husband before she divorced him in 1392.
