Mr. Alan L. Bain President The American-Scottish Foundation, Inc. Scotland House TM 575 Madison Avenue, 10th Floor New York, NY 10022

Dear Alan:

I am so sorry I will be unable to attend The American-Scottish Foundation’s 50th Anniversary & Wallace Award® Gala Dinner on Monday, October 23rd.

As a former Wallace Award® recipient, I am most proud of both that honor and my Scottish bloodline. Therefore, it goes without saying, that it is with great regret that I must convey to you, and all those assembled for this very special occasion, that professional film commitments prevent me from participating in the festivities; however, I certainly do look forward to future gatherings.

I would like to extend my most sincere congratulations and best wishes to Mr. Euan Baird on being presented The American-Scottish Foundation’s 2006 Wallace Award®.

I congratulate The American-Scottish Foundation on achieving the milestone of one-half century of dedicated service to the promotion of “all things Scottish,” and wish the Foundation and its members all the very best for a great many more years of noteworthy achievement and success.

As ever, yours, Aye,

FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT EMERITUS The American-Scottish Foundation, Inc.

Lady Malcolm Douglas-Hamilton was born Natalie Scarritt in Cohasset, Massachusetts in 1909. She grew up in Boston and New York City. From her earliest years, she was a generous, outgoing and enthusiastic person of drive and great optimism.

Her career began in 1939 when she learned of the devastation and isolation of Great Britain in the early years of World War II. She took the train to Washington, D.C. to ask the British Ambassador, Lord Lothian, what Britain needed that ordinary Americans could supply.

Lord Lothian inquired, and the answer came back: knitted Balaclava helmets for the merchant navy, who were suffering from exposure and freezing temperatures shepherding convoys in the North Atlantic. These head coverings needed to be of a uniform, almost- black navy blue wool of a certain weight, and knitting instructions would be supplied. Undaunted (a quality that served her for the rest of her life), Natalie c1ontacted wollen mills--principally Burlington Mills--and asked them to supply several tons, not “at cost” because, as she cheerfully noted, “I have no money”, but for free.

The wool was supplied, the knitting began and Natalie organized, Bundles for Britain, which eventually had over two and one-half million men and women as members, knitting helmets, sweaters, gloves; rolling bandages and packing medicines; creating clothing drives, blood drives and canned food drives across the country. She asked Buckingham Palace for something she could auction off in a nationwide raffl e to raise money. Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother, sent a red, white and blue (rubies, diamonds and sapphires) cigarette case and a piece of shrapnel from the bomb that hit Buckingham Palace. Natalie maintained a cordial relationship with the Queen, who years later as Queen Mother became the Royal Patron of The American Scottish Foundation. Later, Natalie joined the Staff of as assistant to the Publisher.

In 1946, Natalie was made an honorary Commander of the British Empire for her services in World War II. She was the fi rst non-British woman to be so honored.

1947, faced with the growing Soviet threat in Europe, Natalie and her husband, Edward Bragg Paine, created Common Cause, Inc, the fi rst “American citizens organization to combat communism”. She turned her dynamism and organizational skills once again to a cause

she believed in, raising funds, holding seminars, shipping food during the Berlin airlift and using American legal interventions to shelter refugees—sometimes tin her own home. Her husband died suddenly in 1951. --...._ In that same year, as a young American widow she went to England If.) to make a speech about Communism in the House of Commons. She met Lord Malcolm Douglas-Hamilton, the Member of Parliament for Inverness-shire and an ardent ant communist. She later

married him, and they lived in Scotland and England for several years. -Returning to the United States, Lord and Lady Malcolm together created The American-Scottish Foundation, Inc. in 1956, to strengthen the historic ties between Scotland and the United States in all areas--educational, cultural, social, genealogical, philanthropic, scientifi c and economic.

Articulate, enthusiastic and encouraging, Lady Malcolm worked with Lord Malcolm to further the goals of the Foundation until he was tragically killed with his 21-year-old son, Niall, in an airplane crash in Cameroon, West Africa in 1964.

Devastated by her loss, Lady Malcolm found some strength in continuing Lord Malcolm’s dreams for the Foundation. In the early 1970s she organized “Scotland Week” in New York City. She obtained permission from the Fifth Avenue Association to have crossed American and Scottish fl ags on every other lamppost. She asked the famous Fifth Avenue shops between 60th and 34th Streets to give their front windows (and inside) a Scottish motif. There was a 2-day Economic Meeting with Scottish and American economists and professors. There were Scottish concerts, pipe bands, the Scottish Symphony, an art exhibit and many parties during the gala week.

Lady Malcolm also inaugurated The Scottish Ball, one of the most beautiful, memorable and “fun” events of the social year. It was held, at the Hotel Plaza, and was eagerly anticipated each year. She also created The Wallace Award, the single most prestigious event in the Scottish-American calendar celebrating outstanding achievement primarily of American – Scots.

Lady Malcolm was particularly enthusiastic about creating Scotland House, a special dream of Lord Malcolm’s, to be a central gathering place for American Scots, visiting Scots, students, people seeking their Scottish roots--a place for all. The fi rst Scotland House was opened in the mid-70s at 124 East 39th Street by New York City Mayor Abraham Beame, and was an instant success. Lectures, movies, seminars, ceilidhs, dances and teas were held in a comfortable atmosphere with a large Scottish-American library, and Scottish products such as sweaters, tweeds, jewelry and china were for sale. A later Scotland House was on Fifth Avenue in the 80s and of course the present Scotland House at 575 Madison Avenue.

Lady Malcolm retired from the Foundation in 1989. She had two daughters, six grandchildren and 11 grandchildren and is currently enjoying her retirement in Stillwater, New Jersey.
