Stone is Smuggled out at Night - The Coronation Stone, was removed secretly from a cell at Forfar, Angus, police station during the night and driven to Glasgow police headquarters. It made the 120 mile journey in the back of a mid-spattered shooting brake. A black police car, used as a decoy, travelled ***** It. Two Glasgow police cars waited for it at the city boundary and escorted it to headquarters. The shooting brake entering the Glasgow police headquarters with the Coronation Stone. April 12, 1951.
