Forester of Cumberland
Beatrice's lover attacked Hugh de Morville with a sword but that she cried out in English to warn Hugh. It was used as evidence that the Scoto- Normans could speak English, perhaps in preference to French. Hugh and Beatrice are commemorated on a plaque at Dryburgh Abbey and at least Hugh is supposed to be buried there, possibly Beatrice was, too.
