STORNOWAY, Scotland (UPI) -- U.S. developer Donald Trump, on a trip to
Scotland to lobby for his proposed golf resort, stopped off at the
island cottage where his mother grew up.
Trump's private jet dwarfed everything else on the runway at Stornoway
Airport on the Isle of Lewis, The Scotsman reported. Trump, his
sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, a federal appeals judge, and a retinue
of security guards and PR people traveled to the cottage Monday in a
four-car convoy.
Mary Macleod was born on Lewis in 1912, the daughter of a crofter. In
1936, she married Fred Trump, who later became one of New York's
foremost developers, in New York City.
The cottage where the Macleods lived in the hamlet of Tong 4 miles
from Stornoway is still occupied by two cousins, Willie and Alastair
Murray.
"It was a bit of a scrum, right enough, but he was terrific and he
enjoyed the trip to Tong," Willie Murray said of the visit.
Trump denied that his side trip to Lewis was a publicity stunt in aid
of his plans for the east coast of Scotland. He said his $2 billion
project is a chance to do "something historic" for the country where
his mother was born.
