      (The following is from "The Munro Beacon" - Vol. 35, No. 3 - "Reign of the House of Stewart (Stuart)" - by Liam Paterson.)

      «i»James I (1406-1437)
      James's early life was spent mostly as a prisoner in the Tower of London, albeit treated as a member of royalty. Only in 1424 did he return to Scotland to be crowned king. He had been well educated during his time in England and he wanted to overhaul much of the country's infrastructure of church and state. Although generally sensible, his reforms did not go down at all well with the nobles and, inevitably, he was assassinated during a visit to a monastery in Perth.«/i»
