Our Island Story - Chapter 44
Edward II. - The Story of the Battle of Bannockburn
There were two battles. They were waiting for the dawn to fight. There were ones that were begging for mercy and I think one of the knights said to another knight, "They are begging but the they are begging to the Lord for mercy." The army started and they kept fighting. This other army came but it was the servants of the Scott army They came armed with sticks. They [the English] thought they were an army. The English were running away and a few of them died trying to go across the water and some died by going off the rocks.
Then they didn't like their king so they replaced him with his son. And his name was King Edward III. The old king was put into prison. He screamed and they found the King dead in prison. |
