Duke of Buccleuch
September 4, 2007 by David Torrance
It was announced earlier today (Tuesday) that the Duke of Buccleuch had died aged 83. He was the MP for North Edinburgh from 1960-73, and served as Parliamentary Private Secretary to both Jack Maclay and Michael Noble as Secretaries of State for Scotland from 1962-64. The Daily Telegraph, as usual, has a lengthy obituary, as does The Times, while I did one for today’s Scotsman; today’s Independent also has a typically personal account by Tam Dalyell.
