because she, and the catholics of England and Spain believed that Elizabeth was an illegitimate queen.

they wanted a catholic queen and because Elizabeth was protestant, the easiest way to have a catholic country was to kill Elizabeth and make Mary queen.

There was no real evidence that Mary Queen of Scots was involved in any plots against Elizabeth. But in 1587 Elizabeth signed Mary's death warrant and Mary was beheaded at Fotheringhay Castle.

i did not elizabeth 1th murdered Mary, i fort it was da other way rowned

Actually Mary didn't try and murder her at first. Mary was Elizabeth half sister, and her husband was a nephew of King Henry VII, making Mary the rightfull heir of the throne. She was queen of the Scots at the time of the offer. So elizabeth took the throne. After Mary cheated on her husband, married another then murder him she was going to be kicked of the throne and murdered. She posed as a man and fled Scotland. She went to England to get the throne back. But when the Queen heard of this is knew that the Catholics would uprise (since Mary would bring Cathoicism back) and murder her. She had Mary improsined at once. The cathoics tried to break Mary free but the Queen moved her before they could. Now to answer your question...some officers got ahold of some letters Mary was writting to people they saw her plotting and were going to try her for treason. The queen didn't want to put her half sister to dealth and procrastanatied siging the papers...so she never did..and Parliament excuted Mary with out her concent.....................

Sorry for the length and spelling errors =P

Why did Queen Mary lock her sister elizibeth?

She didn't hate her until her reign started. Instead she was very fond of her when they were younger. She taught her how to play the lute, they exchanged gifts and played cards together. Mary also warned her for Thomas Seymour and urged her not to live with Catherine Parr and him. This is interesting, since she had a lot of reason to hate Elizabeth's mother and view her as nothing but a bastard. When Mary became queen, she was at first still friendly to her. Later she began to perceive her as a threat to her marriage and the catholic faith. This in part because Elizabeth was very dubious about conversion. People who were discontent with Mary, all saw in Elizabeth a happy alternative and began to plot for Mary's demise.
