Excerpt from The Romance of the Revolution: Being a History of the Personal Adventures

But perhaps the fact that we were rebels, aside from the injus tice Of their invasion, may have goaded them on to ferocity. English history shows that that's a name on which the English biestow no sympathy, and for those thus ranked they allow no mercy. Such beings are without the pale of humanity, and are not to be treated with any faith, with whom no Obligations are binding, and to whom no pity is due. With such severity, at least, were the rebel Scots treated on the sanguinary field Of Cul loden. We are all familiar with the atrocities committed on that day; how, by the commands Of the inhuman butcher, the Duke Of Cumberland, the hapless Scots were shot down, bayoneted, and murdered, long after they had surrendered, and even while they were begging for quarter.
