Abstract
Among Canada’s pioneer poets John MacLean is uniquely Am Bàrd MacGilleathan.His ‘The Gloomy Forest’ gave an eloquent account of tree-felling challenges facingHighland settlers. MacLean’s background in fertile Tiree, where his bardic skillsdeveloped, was very different. This paper focuses on a friendship between the bardand a priest, Colin Grant, who shared his knowledge of clan-based society. Thefriendship flourished in an area of Nova Scotia where faith communities met.Protestants from the northern Highlands put down roots in Pictou while Catholicsfrom further west settled in Antigonish and Cape Breton. The personal friendshipreflected a period of shared Gaelic culture when clergy were in short supply.Scripture in Gaelic helped to establish Calvinist values, while Catholic belief andpractice continued to draw on an imaginative folk-culture. The bard’s praise-poetryfor the priest followed him to death, but MacLean turned to spiritual verse as faithcommunities drew apart.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
