| ST MARGARET'S TOMB | 035 | Description of St Margaret's Tomb Continued [from Page 71] denominated by Winton "the Rude Awtare" and when she was canonized in 1250 her remains was translated along with her husband's to their present resting place, i.e. [that is] St Margaret's Tomb, but the only authority for Malcolm's translation is the following story quoted by Father Hay in his Scotia Sacra, "on processing through the church, and reaching the monument of Malcolm, all were astonished it is gravely related, by a Kind of miracle then wrought in the sudden halting of the bones of St Margaret, which could not be moved till all those of Malcolm's were diligently gathered together and placed in the same chest which being done there was no impediment to the procession". -- Abridged from Chalmers' History of Dunfermline Pages 128 to 130 |
