REGARDING Rebecca McQuillan s article ( The Tories overplayed their hand – most Scots still trust Sturgeon , The Herald, March 5), while the Conservatives overplayed their hand on the eve of the First Minister s evidence to the committee, it is commendable that both Labour and the LibDems were quick to assert their reservation of judgment until after the inquiry was concluded. Inevitably most reviews published on social media have been coloured by entrenched attitudes on each side of the independence debate. However, like many who were willing to judge the proceedings impartially, I felt Nicola Sturgeon acquitted herself remarkably well on Wednesday, especially given the emotional dimension involved.

A Japanese fish named Hanako is thought to be the longest-serving Koi fish in history, having made it to the glorious old age of 226 before she died in 1977. The scarlet-colored fish was born in 1751, Japan, in the heart of the Tokugawa era.

Her remarkable story was initially communicated when her last owner Dr. Komei Koshihara made a national report on Nippon Hoso Kyokai radio station in 1966.

Pair of the fish s scales had been pulled and examined for more than two months, enabling Hiro to figure the rings of growth on her scales to assume her age.

At fourteen, she began ten years of bondage in the household of Burwell’s eldest son, a minister in Hillsborough, North Carolina, where she endured repeated physical abuse and sexual assaults and eventually gave birth to a son. Sent back to Virginia, she was enslaved in the household of Anne Burwell Garland and her husband, Hugh Garland. In 1847, Garland moved his household to St. Louis. By then a skilled seamstress, Keckly was hired out as a dressmaker to support the impoverished family. After several years of negotiations, Garland agreed to Keckly’s proposal to buy her and her son’s freedom. Keckly married James Keckly, with whom she lived in St. Louis for eight years. In 1860, Keckly left her husband and moved to Washington, D.C., where she established herself as a seamstress to the capital�
