] Date Posted: 17:36:19 12/13/04 Mon In reply to: Jim (Canada) 's message, "Queen Victoria's statue restored in Quebec" on 16:38:05 12/13/04 Mon I would be less surprised if even India were to restore its imperial statues. I understand that Wolfe's tomb in Quebec city once bore the epitaph "Here Lies Wolfe Victorious", but that it was destroyed by vandals and then replaced with a tomb on which the word "victorious" did not appear, so as not to upset French sensibilities. Perhaps now is the time to pursuade the authorities to put the adjective back. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
