Publishers Description: King James was the King in Scotland, and the clans, automatically adopted any rules he imposed during those early years in Ulster, for they were from Scottish stock. ******************************************************* McCracken was a young man with big ideas but his vision of independence for Ulster killed three hundred men. ******************************************************* ‘The bloody Major does not give a toss about our lives. If his horse hadn’t sickened, we would be ten fathoms down in Davy Jones locker by now’. ******************************************************* The officers, by now had learnt their lesson the hard way, realizing that their friendship with the Prince was not so cleaver after all, as they exposed themselves to a royal father’s wrath. The 96th was going to a war front, yet again. ******************************************************* Prime Minister Disraeli was on another one of his private visits with the Queen, who had returned to her London palace with her own personal thoughts of grief. ******************************************************* John lay on the ground, mortally wounded. In making a grab at the horses bridle, he flew in front of the carriage, forcing the path of the horses away from Disraeli. ******************************************************* When Jane spoke, she was alarmed at the sight of broken teeth and blood spitting out of her mouth. ******************************************************* Caroline’s letters were saying the same thing as the Temperance women around me, were saying. If women had the right to vote above all else, they could change the existing bad laws, and eventually, women and families’ conditions would improve.
