Noble Friends,

On this date in 1315, the Battle of Bannockburn began, the high point in 
the Scottish Wars of Independence. King Robert the Bruce faced much 
larger English army poorly led by Edward II. The two-day battle resulted 
in a complete rout of the English forces, with massive casualties. 
Although this wasn't the end of the Scottish wars (by far!), Scotland's 
independence was assured for a number of years.

Here's the Wikipedia site:

Yours Aye,


Lord Mungo Napier, That Proud Scot
