No excuses. Was in the mood for some more painterly portrait style art. Here’s a thing from bbc Dracula 🧛‍♂️ I lament this show a bit because I felt like it had the potential to be so much better.

On July 24rd 1567 Mary Queen of Scots was forced to abdicate. 

n my opinion this was one of the most shameful events in our history. After Carberry on June 15th she spent the night in Edinburgh before being taken and imprisoned at Lochleven Castle in Kinross. By all accounts Mary then miscarried twins before a visit from Patrick Lindsay, 6th Lord Lindsay of the Byres and Patrick Ruthven, 3rd Lord Ruthven who told her in no uncertain terms what would happen if she did not give up her crown in favour of her son, the future James VI. 

Finding first hand sources is always a bonus to me, and so it is over to Claude Nau de la Boisseliere, Mary's private secretary, who recorded this event in his memoirs which were translated from French into English as The History of Mary Stewart: From the Murder of Riccio Until Her Flight Into England. Also present was Mary's supporter James Melville. 

"On the afternoon of the ... day of ... 1567, the Lords Lindsay and Ruthven, accompanied by two notaries and the said Melvil, came into the queen's chamber. She was lying on her bed, in a state of very great weakness, partly by reason of her extreme trouble (partly in consequence of a great flux, the result of a miscarriage of twins, her issue by Bothwell), so that she could move only with great difficulty. With extreme audacity and anger Lindsay gave her to understand of the commission with which he was charged by the nobility, namely, to make her sign certain letters for the resignation of the crown; which he required her to be pleased to read. Although she had already been assured by Melvil, in the name of the nobles mentioned above, that she need make no difficulty, she plainly refused to do so; she could not in conscience (her heart telling her that she was innocent) prejudice her honour by sanctioning such an unjust statement. At the same time she knew that her life was in great and immediate danger. And of a truth it was the intention of the rebels, if she did not sign these letters, to take her from Lochleven, and as they were crossing the lake to throw her into it, or secretly to convey her to some island in the middle of the sea, there to be kept unknown to the whole world, in close custody for the remainder of her life. Lindsay confirmed this; for, as soon as he saw that her Majesty resolutely refused to sign these letters, he told her to rise from bed, and that he had charge to carry her to a place where he would give a good account of her to the lords of the country. Several times he advised her to sign, for if she did not, she would compel them to cut her throat, however unwilling they might be.

This poor princess, seeing herself thus treated by her own subjects, and being without any of her domestics (for the two femmes-de-chamhre, whom only she had with her, had been turned out), asked where she was to be taken. She demanded very earnestly to be admitted before the estates of the country and the parliament to answer to the points mentioned in these letters. Lindsay replied that he had no instructions on these heads, and could say nothing more. Thus, without any form of legal proceeding or knowledge of the cause, they compelled her Majesty by threats and present violence to sign these instruments, which they caused to be read by the said notaries. When they asked her what she thought of the matter, she answered several times that she did not consent to the contents of these instruments, that she had signed them in direct opposition to her intention and will, and that they had been extorted from her by force and constraint. She protested, therefore, that she would observe and keep them no longer than during her imprisonment, and she frequently asked those who were present to be her witnesses."

Mary signed the deeds, in the hope that they would be found invalid because they were signed under duress, but it was the end of her reign, and her son was crowned on 29th July at the Church of the Holy Rude, Stirling.

Nau goes on to write that after Mary had signed the papers "she was taken (with great altercation on both sides) into a great gloomy tower in Lochleven. She was there shut up, within an iron gate, in such a miserable condition, that no poor criminal could be treated worse." He also claims that she was deprived of ink, paper and books, and that attempts were made to poison her.

The English translation of Nau's memoirs can be read on archive.org - https://archive.org/stream/historymarystew00naugoog#page/n6/mode/2up, see pages 59-62 for the part about Mary's abdication.

I recently found your BBC Dracula and Lord Ruthven post and thank you because I love Lord Ruthen, you know as you do, and I forgot he existed until I found your post! 😂

Patrick Walshe McBride is cute and all, but I would say it’s more lust than love on my part when it comes to Ruthven lol. I just like writing for underappreciated/obscure characters.

🏰Glenbuchat (pronounced ‘Glenbucket’) Castle. The castle is dated 1590, and had a courtyard. The castle was built by the Gordons, whose earlier stronghold was at Badenyon. It was occupied by James VI’s forces during the rebellion by George Gordon, Earl of Huntly, in 1592. Patrick Gordon of Glenbuchat is on record in 1663. Brigadier-General John Gordon of Glenbuchat fought for the Jacobites in both the 1715 and 1745 Risings, and led the Gordons and Farquharsons at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 – when already 70. Earlier he had been the leader of the men who took Ruthven Barracks in February 1746. He was hunted after the battle, but managed to escape to Norway, disguised as a beggar, and died in France. The castle was a ruin by 1738, was sold to the Duff Earl of Fife the same year, and replaced by Glenbuchat House, which dates from 1826 and has a double bow-front. #castle #glenbuchat #scotland

Title: All the King's Armies: A Military History of the English Civil War 1642-1651

Authors: Stuart Reid

ISBN: 9780752486758

Tags: England, English Civil War, Oliver Cromwell

Subject: Books.General History.Europe.British, Books.Military.16th-17th Century.Europe.UK

On 23 September 1642 Prince Rupert's cavalry triumphed outside Worcester in the first major clash of the English Civil War. Almost precisely nine years later, on 3 September 1651, that war was won by Oliver Cromwell's famous Ironsides outside the same city and in part upon the same ground. Stuart Reid provides a detailed yet readable new military history - the first to be published for over twenty years - of the three conflicts between 1642 and 1651 known as the English Civil War. Prince Rupert, Oliver Cromwell, Patrick Ruthven, Alexander Leslie and Sir Thomas Fairfax all play their parts in this fast-moving narrative. At the heart of the book are fresh interpretations, not only of the key battles such as Marston Moor in 1644, but also of the technical and economic factors which helped shape strategy and tactics, making this a truly comprehensive study of one of the most famous conflicts in British history. This book is a must for all historians and enthusiasts of seventeenth-century English history.
