from Westminster Abbey that that marked the beginning of the Scottish agitation for independ nt government Bclieve me it had been going on for long time be fore that remember covering many political meetings when the big guns from the House of Com mons like John Slrachcy who was one of Dundecs MPs and also Bri tains Food Minister Sir Stafford Crfpps and Clement Mllee Bri tains Prime Minister were

strong in the universities and it was group of students from Glasgow University who planned thc theft of the Stone of Destiny That was not the slart of the agi tation but it certainly was rally ing
