**Today in Scottish History**

On this day in 1546 Cardinal Beaton, Lord High Chancellor of Scotland, was murdered.
Beaton was murdered in St Andrews Castle by a band of Protestant Reformers, including two Protestant nobles, Leslie, and Kirkcaldy of the Grange. Beaton was a staunch supporter of the French involvement in Scotland and was seen as the main persecutor of proponents of Protestantism. Beaton's murderers held the castle for a year until French troops stormed the ramparts. One of the Protestants taken prisoner in the castle was a young John Knox.

The 29th May 1630 saw the birth of Charles II, although it would be 30 years to the day before he was able to take up his throne. Nineteen years later this date also saw the Covenanters ride into Rutherglen to extinguish the fires celebrating Charles' Restoration. After issuing the Declaration of Rutherglen, the Covenanters rode out for Drumclog.
