Troublous Times in Canada

CHAPTER XIV
10/16

Be true to liberty, your country, and your God; and your native land, instead of being a lazar-house of slavery, will soon be the garden of freedom.

Stand by the cause! Be not dismayed by obstacles you meet; you must surmount them, and you will.

Let cowardice and ignorance desert and denounce you--what of that?
The true men are still with us, and the struggle must not be abandoned, even though our soldiers should be compelled through the over-zeal of United States officers to abandon the present campaign.

There is no turning back for us, my countrymen.
Our movement must and will advance.

Retrogression would entail certain infamy and bring a deeper stain upon your country and race, and it is as legitimate for you to attack English power in Canada as it was for England to attack France there, or France and America England.
