Reason:

Argument: Pro conceded without argument. Con offered historic poetry. Points to Con

Sources: Con offered only source of the debate. Points to Con

S&G: Superb usage of John Barbour [14th century, not the Canadian actor and comedian], virtually the first poet to write in Scots [aka West germanic, not to be confused with Scottish Gaelic]. Kudos

Conduct: I will disagree with Con and offer the point to him because to debate is more noble than to concede, whatever the reason for concession.

Reason:

Con is the only one who provided any argument here. Pro conceded.

Con also used text evidence, which is why he gets the point on sources.
