Noble Friends, Especially Fellow Scots,

Today the BBC is reporting on the discovery of a group of letters signed by
Mary Queen of Scots. The letters are on fairly mundane subjects, and date
between 1555 and 1567. Sorry, no shocking "Casket Letters" here. The
letters were gifted to the Museum of Edinburgh in 1920 and immediately went
into storage, only to be recently rediscovered:

Due to their fragile nature, the letters will not go on display. Instead,
they have already been digitized for your reading pleasure:

Yours Aye,

Mungo Napier, Laird of Mallard Lodge  🦆
