Interesting to note that the queen was NOT taken to her execution in a cart but in a private carriage according to this text. I wonder what source there is for this.

Every other source confirms the fact that the Queen went to her death in a cart. The claim that MA rode in a carriage is probably based on hearsay, not on an eyewitness account.
