Who was Lord Borchard de Herle?
Lord Borchard de Herle was a medieval diplomat under the English King Edward I of England,. He began his service to the King at the age of 20 in which he was sent to other European countries to sign peace treaties, free hostages and deal with trade. After being sent to Scotland to aid the English hostages in a Scottish peasant uprising in 1305, Lord Borchard de Herle took a surprising turn in position, siding with the Scottish peasants, whom he had secretly pitied. After returning to England empty-handed, without the hostages, he was beheaded for his betrayal to the crown.
