Acadian Exiles

NOTE: THIS IS a DOWNLOADABLE E-BOOK. Having removed the menace of the French forts, Lawrence was now able to deal more freely with the question of the Acadians. the opportunity for action was not long in presenting itself. in June the Acadians of Minas presented to Lawrence a petition couched in language not as tactful as it might have been. in this memorial they requested the restoration of some of their former privileges. They first assured the lieutenant-governor of their fidelity, which they had maintained in face of threats on the part of the French, and of their determination to remain loyal when in the enjoyment of former liberties.Doughty, Arthur G. is the author of 'Acadian Exiles', published 2004 under ISBN 9781419251207 and ISBN 1419251201.
