Elizabeth. The conspiracy was discovered, and Mary was brought to trial in
October 1586. She was sentenced to death on October 25, but not until Feb. 1,
1587 did Elizabeth sign the warrant of execution. She was beheaded a week
later.

France. His death ended the ascendancy of the Guises at court. a.k.a.: Francois

NOTES: Mary's cousin, the Catholic Scottish nobleman Henry Stewart, Laird
Darnley, was married with Roman Catholic rites. Mary had given him the title
of King, but he now demanded that the crown be secured to him for life and that,
if the queen died without children, it should descend to his heirs. Darnley was
discovered strangled close by the scene of an explosion of the house where he lay
sick. The explosion was by gunpowder, and Mary (it is suspected) was not wholly
ignorant of the plot against Darnley.

husband, Darnley. He was brought to a mock trial and acquitted. A short time

Scotland (1554-60); also known as Mary of Lorraine. The widowed daughter of
the French soldier Claude de Lorraine, 1st duc de Guise (1496-1550). Mary
married King James in 1538. After his death in 1542, she engaged in a power
struggle with James Hamilton, 3rd earl of Arran (c.1517-75), who had been
appointed regent for his infant daughter, Mary, Queen of Scots. In 1548 she
arranged her daughter's betrothal to the French Dauphin. Mary secured Arran's
resignation and succeeded him as regent in 1554. When she began persecuting the
Scottish Protestants in 1559, they rebelled against her. Both France and England
intervened in the struggle, which ended with Mary's death.
