This is not a virus....do not delete this file! This message is a virus hoax that has been passed around quite regularly.

Hello Kay Did you get the info & suggestions I sent you about Hill Burton? Some of his correspondence is in the National Library of Scotland.

It seems Craig House became part of the Royal Edinburgh Hospital and is now destined to be a new campus for Napier University. There is a short descr

The Portobello Reporter Winter 2001 (Quarterly) -- A Safe Find! A few weeks ago I discovered an old safe in the basement of Duddingston Manse. It was large and very difficult to move.

Inside was a treasure trove of old documents and church memorabilia. From the items that were dated we worked out that the safe
