Assassin

Linlithgow, West Lothian

An engraving rather than a photograph.
This follows on from yesterday's Linlithgow Palace picture
and shows James Hamilton about to carry out the world's first ever political
assassination with a firearm when he shot Mary, Queen of Scots brother, the
Regent Moray, at Linlithgow High Street in 1570.
