AND LATER THE FATE OF TO-MORROW...

"Painful is the task I do which to you I know
       must be grievous.
Yet must I bow and obey, and deliver the will
       of our monarch.
Namely, that all your lands, and dwellings, and
       cattle of all kinds
Forfeited be to the crown; and that you
       yourselves from this province
Be transported to other lands.  God grant you
       may dwell there
Ever as faithful subjects, a happy and
       peaceable people!
Prisoners now I declare you; for such is his
       Majesty's pleasure!"

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882), from his poem "Evangeline"
about the British destruction of the French Acadian settlement at
Grand-Pre. (the above quotes suggested by a letter in the August
1992 American Rifleman by Bob Simpson, CA)

* The more things change, the more they stay the same!
