Stone Of Soone

(Montreal Gazette)

How many visitors to Westmin-

London. Peculiar, because it embodies -stone, history and IIIYBWFY- !°1‘ underneath the seat of the Coro- nation Chair is the Stone of Scone. About this object there is mystery as to its exact origin.

One story identifies this stone

with the one upon which Jacob laid his tired head at Bethel when .he was a fugitive from his broth- el-‘s wrath and dreamed of the ladder set up from earth to Hea- ven. When he awoke, he said, "Truly, God is inthis place,” and used the stone as an altar to ren- der sacrifice to God.

After that he carried the stone

with him in his wanderings and it passed down through the ages as his descendants grew into a. mighty nation. Upon it. or stand- ing beside it with a hand resting upon lt, the Hebrew kings are said to have been crowned. When the Babylonian captivity carried them away into a foreign land the stone ,is supposed to have gona with ithem in the care of the prophet Jeremiah.

Later on Jeremiah, who had so-

cured the good graces of the Klng's_daught.er, escaped with her from Babyionia and they took with them the sacred stone of tho Hebrews, wandering from place to place throughout Southern Eu-

' The Scots could not reconcile

tions, to encompass its retum when the Treaty of Northampton, which closed the long war between Engand and Scotland. required the restoration of the lost relics to Scotland. Edward III. of Eng- land directed the Abbot of West- minister, who had the stone, to give it to the Sheriffs of London, who would see that it and the oth- er articles under the Treaty were isafely restored.

Other articles, including even

"The Black Rood," which was tbo sacred cross of Holyrood were sent buck to scotland. but the people of London (which probably meant the Abbot of Westmlnister) abso-

ilutely refused to permit the Scone iSbone to leave its new home.

Thirty years later David II. be-

`_| gan negotiations afresh with Ed- ward III.. which entailed that the isvohe should he delivered to scot- land, but nothing materialized and the Scone Stone remained in Westminster Abbey, and has been there ever since.

Both Addison and Goldsmith

refer to this stone as Jacob's Pil- low. and the fact that the chair is scratched over from top to bottom

having served Jacob as a. pillow has been confused with the stone which served a similar purpose for Bt. Columba. In this connec- tion ii; is interesting to observe that St. Columbo is also reputed to have dreamed the dream of ri vision of angels passing from Hea- ven to earth, identical with that of Jacob.

In 1865, at the request of the

`Dean of Westminster, o. certain Professor A. C. Ramsey, Fellow of the Royal Society and Director of the Geological Survey of England, examined the Coronation Stone in the Abbey and wrote the following remarks: “The Coronation Stone consists

'stone with a few embedded peb | bles. One of these is of quartz, and itwo others of dark material, the nature of which I was unable to

much in far transported matters of stone, especially when the hig. tory of the matters is somewhat vague in its earlier stages. The country aroimd Scone is formed of old red sandstone and it is quite

possible that the Coronation Stone may have been derived from one of its strata.”

The name. by the way. is pro-

nounced "scoon." _ _
