Arrest of Rev Angus Smith, Sunday observance campaigner

Jun. 06, 1965 - Fourteen Islanders Arrested During Attempt to Stop Traffic from the First Sunday Ferry Service. Fourteen islanders were arrested, including a local minister yesterday, after an attempt to block traffic from the first regular Sunday ferry service to run between the Scottish mainland and the Isle of Skye. The arrests followed a struggle during which the islanders staged a sit down demonstration marking the climax of a nine months campaign in the Isle of Skye, stronghold of the Scottish Sabbath, against the introduction of the Sunday ferry service.
