William St. Clair (c.1300-1330), died at the battle of Teba in Andalusia, Spain, while, with Sir James Douglas, attempting to carry the Heart of Bruce to the Holy Land to bury it there, as they had promised that king on his deathbed. The Moors honored their bravery by returning both their bodies and the heart of Bruce; the heart was buried at Melrose Abbey, where it has recently been rediscovered.
