SCOTLAND

SCOTLAND - 24 June 1314 - The winning of the Battle of BANNOCKBURN was a significant Scottish Victory in the wars of Scottish Independence. Six years later Eight Earls and Forty-five Barons asked the Pope's dispassionate Intervention in the 'bloody' quarrel between the Scots and the English - On the 6th April 1320 the Declaration of Arbroath was signed and has been unequalled in its eloquent plea for liberty to man.

FREEDOM - was the result of the Declaration, Freedom to wear their colours' the TARTANS - hence the CELEBRATIONS so proudly known as TARTAN DAY SCOTTISH GOLF CHALLENGE
Being in awe of what was achieved so many years ago we in South Africa is proud to have been accepted by MSP Mr Andrew Welsh of the Scottish Parliament to allow us to host an event in honour of what was achieved.

TARTAN DAY S.A. GOLF CHALLENGE is played once a year in November.

FREEDOM

Two Things
that make the DECLARATION of ARBROATH the most important Document in SCOTTISH
history.

FIRSTLY it set the will and the wishes of the people above the King. Though they were bound to him 'both by law and by his merits' it was so that their Freedom might be maintained. If he betrayed them he would be removed and replaced. This remarkable obligation placed upon a feudal monarch by his feudal subjects may be explained in part by the fact that BRUCE was still a heather king to many of them, still a wild claimant ruling upon sufferances and success. But the roots of his kingship were Celtic, and a Celtic tradition was here invoked, the memory of the Seven Earls, the Seven Sons of Cruithne the Pict in who, it was believed, had rested the ancient right of tanistry, the elevation of kings by selection. Thus unique relationship of king and people would influence their hisroty henceforward, and would reach its climax in the Reformation and the century following, when a peoople's Church would declare and maintain its superiority over earthly crowns.

SECONDLY the manifesto affirmed the nation's independence in a way no battle could, and justified it with a truth that is beyond nation and race. Man has a right to FREEDOM and a duty to defend it with his life. Qualifications put upon this by a medieval Baron are irrelevant, as are the reservations which slaveowning Americans placed upon their Declaration of Independence.

The Truth once spoken cannot be checked, the seed once planted controls its own growth, and the liberty which men secure for themselves must be given by them to others, or it will be taken as they took it. FREEDOM is a Hardy Plant and must Flower in Equality and Brotherhood
