Alpín resolved to remove the king, and met him with his forces near a village of [[Angus, Scotland|Angus]], where the fight was maintained with great obstinacy, till the Pictish king was slain, whereby the Scots got the victory. However, a new king of "high descent and noble achievements" (possibly [[Drest IX|Drest]]) was elected king of the Picts, and turned the scale, and at [[Galloway]] defeated and took King Alpín, anno 834, and put him with many of his nobles to death. It is said that Alpín's head was fastened to a pole, and carried about the Pictish army, and at last set up for spectacle in [[Abernethy, Perth and Kinross|Abernethy]], their chief town, which was afterwards severely revenged by the Scots, who called the place where he was slain Bas Alpin.<ref>{{
