OF H0LYR00D HlstoruOld- Castle In Sroland to be : Overhauled and Cleaned. - 'London.-'Anrll 30-Alk been set on edge by receli tyata Ltkrary thatJHls Majesty has on old Holyrood Palace in sunniura uver hauled and cleaned and that such alie nations and improvements should be made as to render the famous structure suitable for habitation. The order has led to a rumor that one- of the sons of Their Majesties is to be created Duke of Edlnburg and -will take np hisresidence in tne old Scottish capi tal. More probnble, however, is the un derstanding that the King and Queen intend to visit Scotland this summer and hold a levee and a court In Holy- rood. Of royalty Hollyrood has seen but little since James VI. left It to occupy the throne of Elizabeth. When King George visited there soon after his ac cession to the throne be was tbe first reigajng King (the second feigning sovereign) to occupy the palace since the time of Charles I., while Queen Mary was the first Qneen Consort to reside there since Anne of Denmark, James VL's Queen, quitted its walls. In 1033 Charles I.. .was crowned in the chapel royal at Holyrood, and later he spent about three months in tbe palace not very happily. From that time till George. IV. visited Edlnburg in 1822 no British monarch crossed its threshold. And George IV, while hold ing various state ceremonies In Holy- rood resided in Dalkeith House. Queen Victoria and .the Prince Con sort lived at. Dalkeith on the occasion of tVtr first visit to Edlnburg,, In 1842. Ilk the autum of 18TiO, however. Her Majesty and Prince Albert resided for two days in Holyrood and subse quently the Queen when going to or returning from Balmoral several times broke her Journey at Edlnburg and spent a night In the palace. , In May, 1!HM, nine months alter tne coronation, King Edward and Queen Alexandra went to Scotland and held a court at Holyrood for the first time for 80 years. Their Majesties did not, however, take up their residence at the palace, but occupied Dalkeith House, which was placed" at' their dispasal by the Duke and Dutchess of Bucclench. Althouch not the oldest of the Scot tish royal palaces, that of Holyrood is in many respects the most interesting. It appeals to the lmagination'as none other vdoes. It has been the scene of some of the most splendid, the most ro mantic and the most" tragic incident hi Scottish history of coronations, roval marriages, festivities, court re vels, plots, conspiracies, fueds, intri gues, assassinations.- It was at Holyrood that the lovely Queen of Scots enjoyed a brief period t, happiness matter -ner -return irom . ml wvilljwl Tto Mllntt France. There she wedded Darniey within the unlace walls Rizzlo was slain, and there. she celebrated her nu ptials with the ruffianly Bothwell. " James VI. lived chiefly at Holyrood before his accession to the throne of Eno-land. He visited the palace oniy once afterward. Charles I. paid two vis its to the palace and James ii. nveo there twice while he was Duke of York. Iu 1859 King Edward Vli:, wnue Prince of Wales, lived at Holyrood while he was studying, and in' 1863-84 the Duke of Edlnburg, afterward mine of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, resided in tKe palace while he was attending t,oin- burg University. ' Old Holyrood paiace was ,onsmoiij oniivent. aunnosed -to have been founded In 1128 by David I. The legend Is that the King was hunting in ine forest of Drumshengh when .he was attacked and would have been killed by a stag that had gone mad, but for a miraculous rood or pross that sudden lv appeared and caused tlie animal to fieeJn gratitude for his deliverance David endowed the chnrch of the Hoi Rood for the Canons of St Augustiw The abbey became a regular roys residence in the time of James IV, anc James V. bnllt the spartments know as Queen Mary's.
