Nice story.
The note at the end of the story says "Also, it should be added,
newspaper accounts are usually rather unreliable, and should be

Halifax would be a viable home to anti American people. *Lots of Halifax
was
settled after the revolutionary war by British loyalists from the USA.
They could not abide being the losers and still live on this side of the
border.


Not just Halifax. *So many came that they decided to split the
original Nova Scotia into two provinces... us and New Brunswick.
$%^%$#$ yanks... always trying to take over and change perfectly good
situations.

Actually they were not Yanks. *They were anything but.


Just threw that comment in to windup the usual easily insulted.
