**Today in Scottish History**

On this day in 1913 Scottish novelist, Oswald Wynd, was born.
Wynd was born in Japan to Scots missionary parents. He lived there for most of his youth and acquired joint citizenship. During the war, Wynd's regiment was ambushed in Malaysia by Japanese forces and he was held in Japan as a prisoner. He was released after the war and left Japan, vowing never to return, although the country loomed over many of his works as an author. Wynd's most well-known work is The Ginger Tree - the tale of a Scotswoman's life in Japan in the early part of the century.
He is also known as the writer of thrillers under the pseudonym Gavin Black.

4 July 1899 saw the birth of Roy Henderson, the Scottish operatic baritone. Henderson sang the role of Count Almaviva in Mozart's 'The Marriage of Figaro' at the inauguration of Glyndebourne Festival Opera on 28 May 1934.
