Jamie Maurine Moon Wilcoxon

Fifty years ago James Hepburn, the Earl of Bothwell, told of the ecstasy and the agony of loving the Queen of Scotland, Mary Stuart. Two sisters, Margaret and Maurine Moon, recorded his words in automatic writing but chose to keep them private because of the very personal nature of his revelations. Indeed, some of them were eliminated entirely, for various reasons, but 41 of his vignettes survive. Now, in the year 2011, the decision has been made to release the surviving information before it is all lost for good.
