In a recent BBC General versesa Bervice broadcast, Ad Campbell touched on some of the explana- tions given for this strangè nume. "One links the card with the betrayal of fle Willison Wallace ie the English în 1903,” he sald. #bocanah it is SIA that information leading to ble capturu was scribbled on the back of a playing card of that number and suit.

Perhaps this is an exception but doubt whether the same could be done here.
