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?

This pic says it's a De Haviland bomber captured by the Germans but I don't think that's right. https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-events-first-world-war-wwi-rial-warfare-german-soldiers-inspecting-33629636.html I checked all the De Haviland models from World War I and did not find a match.
