Noble Friends, Especially Fellow Scots:
It's here! The computer-reconstructed face of Robert the Bruce has been
revealed: http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-38242781
The comments about leprosy are interesting. He might really have
suffered from leprosy, but a lot of less serious skin diseases were
lumped together under the catch-all name, including plaque psoriasis and
scrofula. Nobody knew the difference, and nobody wanted to take chances.
Yours Aye,
Lord Mungo Napier, Whose Ancestors Fought Beside the Bruce
