 Margaret Douglas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Margaret Douglas, Countess of Lennox (October 8, 1515 - March 7, 1578) was the daughter of Archibald Douglas, 6th Earl of Angus, and Margaret Tudor, (daughter of Henry VII of England and widow of James IV of Scotland)
Because of her nearness to the English crown, Lady Margaret Douglas was brought up chiefly at the English court in close association with the future queen Mary I of England, who remained her fast friend throughout life.
She was high in the favour of her uncle, King Henry VIII of England, but was twice disgraced; first for an attachment to Lord Thomas Howard, who died in the Tower of London in 1537, and again in 1541 for a similar affair with Sir Charles Howard, brother of Queen Catherine Howard.

 HAZEL HALLIDAY or MILLEN v. MARGARET BROWN DOUGLAS and ANOTHER, 15 April 2004, T.G. Coutts, Q.C.
He gave as his opinion that during the hours of daylight drivers of northbound vehicles, such as Mr Douglas had a clear, unobstructed view for 300 metres on the approach to the locus of the incident and that southbound vehicles have a similarly unobstructed view.
That he took no avoiding action at all except perhaps to deviate to his offside indicates to me that the matter of the deer being visible in his path was sudden rather than something observable over a long number of metres.
I could find nothing inconsistent with the idea that he might have swerved to the offside if the deer had come across his path from his nearside but in any event a driver's actions in such circumstances cannot be weighed too finely or accurately calculated without the assistance of any witness.

Although every southern state had outlawed the teaching of reading and writing to enslaved fls (and in some cases, free fls as well), there is considerable evidence that some whites defied the law.

Douglass pleaded ignorance of the law, having believed that it applied only to the teaching of slaves, and the mayor announced his intention to dismiss the charge; however, the Grand Jury chose to indict her.
