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.

1917. Miles City Round-up Montana. Cowgirls Clyde Lindsay, Mildred Douglas, and Ruby Dickey.
"The name Clyde is of Scottish origin, meaning "warm" and "friendly." It is primarily a masculine name, but it can also be used for girls. The name has historical significance, being associated with various notable figures, including Clyde Barrow, an infamous bank robber. In recent years, the name has seen a resurgence in popularity, although it remains relatively uncommon. The name is often linked to the Clyde river in Glasgow, Scotland, and has been used in various forms across different cultures."
