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.
Some years ago, I visited the Cathedral Forest in BC, Canada. Last of the big old growth trees in the area. There were a few similar size stumps, with notches hacked, like in the picture. I just couldn't believe they felled those trees with a double sided axe, perched on a 4x4, 10 feet off the ground.
