Today in history:
1587: Mary, Queen of Scots is beheaded in Fotheringhay Castle for her alleged part in the conspiracy to usurp Elizabeth I.
1861: Delegates from seceded states adopt a provisional Confederate Constitution.
1952: Elizabeth becomes Queen of England after her father, King George VI, dies.
I tried to leave this comment here before, but it must not have stuck.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, it sounds like a bad day in history, unless you are Elizabeth in 1952. :)
