Summary

A letter of Mary Queen of Scots has surfaced after 400 years.

A letter Mary Queen of Scots wrote to the Earl of Bothwell has surfaced after 400 years. The letter adds to the controversy surrounding Mary's relationship with Bothwell. Professor John MacInnes gives his opinion on the matter and although the letter is of interest it doesn't in any way add to the existing knowledge we have of that time.
