And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
As a old sailor, years ago one could go to the Sail Locker on almost any USN ship and see this type of Fancy Work. There are still a few Boatswain's Mates that do Fancy Work, but they are getting harder and harder to find. Yes, the sail lockers were / are on ships that have no sails. They are almost the same as a bosun's locker, sorta the same but not quite.
