The Leuchter Reports

After reviewing all of the material and inspecting all of the sites at Auschwitz , Birkenau and Majdanek , your author finds the evidence to be overwhelming .
There were no execution gas chambers at any of these locations .
It is the best engineering opinion of this author that the alleged gas chambers at the inspected sites could not have then been , or now be , utilized or seriously considered to function as execution gas chambers .
Prepared this 5th day of April , 1988 at Malden , Massachusetts .
Fred Leuchter Associates Fred A. Leuchter , Jr. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Preface by Prof. Dr. Robert Faurisson Fred A. Leuchter , born in 1942 , is an engineer living in Boston , Massachusetts , who specialized in the design of execution hardware used in prisons throughout the United States .
One of his major projects was the design of a new gas chamber at the Missouri State Penitentiary at Jefferson City .
In January of 1988 I was in Toronto , Canada , assisting in the defense of Mr. Ernst Zündel , a German-Canadian who was on trial for spreading false news by publishing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a booklet which challenged the prevailing view that six million jews were killed by the Nazis during World War II , primarily through the use of gas chambers using hydrocyanic gas ( Zyklon B gas ) .
Ernst Zündel had been previously tried on the same charge in 1985 .
The trial lasted seven weeks and ended with a conviction and a sentence of fifteen months ’ imprisonment .
In January 1987 , the Ontario Court of Appeal overturned the judgment because of grave errors in law and ordered that a new trial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ January 18 , 1988 , and at the time of this writing is still proceeding .
My initial conversations with Fred Leuchter took place in Boston on the 3rd and 4th of February , 1988 .
I was impressed with the conciseness of his answers to my questions and by his ability to explain every detail of gassing procedures .
He confirmed to me the particularly dangerous nature of an execution by hydrocyanic gas .
Executions using this gas were carried out for the first time in the United States in 1924 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still existed in the construction of execution gas chambers , including the problem of leakage .
I noticed that Fred Leuchter did not question the standard notion of the Holocaust .
After my return from Boston to Toronto and after I had reported to Ernst Zündel on my discussions with Fred Leuchter , Mr. Zündel decided to ask the latter to prepare an expert opinion on the alleged gas chambers at Auschwitz , Birkenau and Majdanek .
Mr. Leuchter accepted the assignment after a weekend in Toronto reviewing wartime aerial photographs of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alleged gas chambers , documents on Zyklon B and slides taken of the sites in the 1970 ’ s by the Swedish researcher Ditlieb Felderer .
On February 25 , 1988 , Mr. Leuchter left for Poland together with his wife Carolyn , his draftsman Howard Miller , cinematographer Jürgen Neumann , and Polish-language interpreter Tijudar Rudolph .
They returned eight days later on March 3rd .
Upon return , Fred Leuchter wrote his report of 192 pages including appendices .
His conclusions were clear : the evidence was overwhelming that there were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Birkenau and Majdanek and that the alleged gas chambers at these sites could not have been , then or now , utilized or seriously considered to function as execution gas chambers .
On the 20th and 21st of April , 1988 , he stood in the witness stand in Toronto .
At first , he replied to the questions put to him by Mr. Zündel ’ s defense lawyer , Douglas H. Christie , assisted by Keltie Zubko and Barbara Kulaszka .
Mr. Leuchter then faced cross-examination by the crown prosecutor , John @ @ @ @ @ @ @ assisted throughout the trial by another crown attorney , a law clerk , and frequent consultations with jewish advisors sitting immediately behind him in the courtroom .
The examination and cross-examination took place in the presence of a judge and an eleven-member jury .
In the courtroom , the atmosphere was one of extreme tension .
I was sitting beside a number of revisionist experts , including Dr. William Lindsey , chief research chemist for Dupont Corporation before his retirement in 1985 .
Everyone in the courtroom , regardless of his or her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ examination , was acutely aware , I think , of participating in a historical event .
The myth of the gas chambers was ending .
The previous day , the director of the Missouri State Penitentiary , Bill Armontrout , had given testimony explaining the procedures and practical operation of a cyanide gas chamber .
For every attentive listener it was revealed that if it was so difficult to execute a single person in this manner , then the alleged execution of hundreds of thousands of persons by the Germans using Zyklon B @ @ @ @ @ @ @ square the circle .
Following Fred Leuchter on the witness stand was Dr. James Roth , Ph.D. ( Cornell Univ . )
, Manager of Alpha Analytical Laboratories in Ashland , Massachusetts .
Dr. Roth reported on the analysis of samples taken from the walls , floors , ceilings and other structures inside the alleged gas chambers of Auschwitz I and Birkenau .
These tests revealed either no detection of traces of cyanide or extremely low levels .
The only exception was the control sample number 32 taken from Delousing Facility Number 1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ produced in Appendix I of the Report and displayed to the jury on an overhead projector .
The difference in detected cyanide between the delousing facility on one hand and the alleged gas chambers on the other was spectacular .
The extremely low level of cyanide found in some crematoria was likely , in my opinion , to have resulted from disinfection of the premises during the war .
I think I was the first to point out that all studies of the alleged German execution gas chambers using Zyklon B should commence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gas chambers .
As early as 1977 , with the help of an American friend , Eugene C. Brugger , a lawyer in New York City , I began an inquiry into this area .
During this research , I obtained information from six American penitentiaries : San Quentin , California ; Jefferson City , Missouri ; Santa Fe , New Mexico ; Raleigh , North Carolina ; Baltimore , Maryland ; and Florence , Arizona .
I was forced to conclude at that time that only an expert in American gas-chamber technology @ @ @ @ @ @ @ execution gas chambers were capable of having been used as described in Holocaust literature .
During the next several years , my articles on German gas chambers always referred to the American gas chambers .
These articles included “ The Rumor of Auschwitz or the Gas Chamber Problem , ” published on December 29 , 1978 , in a French daily newspaper , Le Monde , and a long interview published in August 1979 in the Italian periodical Storia Illustrata .
I visited the gas chamber in Baltimore , Maryland , in September @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chamber and additional documentation .
Then , during a meeting held in New York City under the chairmanship of Fritz Berg , I showed the Gas Chamber Procedure Check Sheet of the Baltimore penitentiary and discussed its implications .
In 1980 , in the first issue of the newly created Journal of Historical Review , I published an article entitled “ The Mechanics of Gassing , ” in which I described in some detail the gas-chamber procedures used in the United States .
In the same year , I published in Vérité Historique @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the Baltimore gas chamber .
My video entitled “ The Gas Chamber Problem , ” made in 1982 , began with an analysis of the American gas chambers .
In 1983 , I prepared for the Institute for Historical Review , Los Angeles , a book written in English on the Holocaust controversy which was to include , for the first time , a list of the questions put to the penitentiary wardens and their answers .
The book , however , was never published : on July 4 , 1984 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Institute were destroyed by arson .
This fire , for all intents and purposes , destroyed the financial viability of the Institute , and a number of projects , including that of my book , were abandoned .
The Holocaust has appeared to be a subject of enormous proportions .
But this “ giant , ” as Dr. Arthur Butz pointed out in The Hoax of the Twentieth Century , is a giant with feet of clay .
To see the feet of clay , one need only go to Auschwitz Concentration @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Dr. Wilhelm Stäglich , “ the extermination thesis stands or falls with the allegation that Auschwitz was a ‘ death factory ’ .
” And for me , the whole mystery of Auschwitz is , in turn , concentrated on the 65 square meters of the alleged gas chamber of Auschwitz I and on the 210 square meters of the alleged gas chamber of Birkenau .
These 275 square meters should have been forensically examined immediately after the war by the Allies , but no such examination was ever carried out then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Jan Sehn , ordered some forensic examinations at Auschwitz but not of the alleged execution gas chambers themselves .
Research by revisionists has shown that the places alleged to have been execution gas chambers could not have been used for such a purpose .
Ditlieb Felderer published photographs indicating the flimsy construction of vents and doors to the gas chambers and the lack of Prussian-blue stains on the walls .
I myself had discovered in 1975 in the archives of the Auschwitz State Museum ( archives which are well-guarded by Communist officials @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chambers and was the first to publish them in various books and articles .
These plans were also shown at the first convention of the Institute for Historical Review in Los Angeles in 1979 , when Mr. Zündel was present .
In reality , these alleged gas chambers had been mortuaries or , as indicated on the plans , “ Leichenhalle ” for Krema I ( later transformed into an air-raid shelter ) and “ Leichenkeller ” for Krema II .
Nevertheless , in order to obtain an entirely scientific confirmation of what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and what revisionist research work and documents had revealed , it was necessary to look for an American gas chamber specialist .
I desperately tried to find such a specialist , but , frankly , I had little hope of finding a man who was not only an expert in gas-chamber technology , but also courageous enough to carry out such an investigation in a Communist country and to publish the results if ever they confirmed revisionist conclusions .
Fortunately , I was wrong .
Fred Leuchter was this specialist .
He went @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , wrote his report and testified in a Canadian court on behalf of Mr. Zündel .
In so doing , he has quietly entered history .
Fred Leuchter is a modest but quietly determined man who speaks precisely .
He would be an excellent professor and has the gift of making people understand the intricacies of any difficult problem .
When I asked him whether or not he was afraid of any dangerous consequences , he replied , “ A fact is a fact.
” Upon reading the Leuchter Report , David Irving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on April 22 , 1988 , during his testimony in Toronto that it was a “ shattering ” document which would become essential for any future historian writing on the Second World War .
Without Ernst Zündel , almost nothing of what has now transpired would have been conceivable .
He sacrifices everything in his search for historical accuracy and lives under difficult conditions , facing influential and powerful enemies .
The pressure on him is permanent and takes the most unexpected and sometimes the most vicious forms .
But he has a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how to analyze any given situation , to evaluate the ratio of forces , to turn adversity into advantage .
From all parts of the world he attracts and mobilizes competent people .
He is a profound man , a genius who combines common sense with a keen understanding of people and situations .
He may once again go to prison for his research and beliefs or be threatened with deportation .
All this is possible .
Anything may happen when there is an intellectual crisis and a realignment of historical concepts of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ intellectual adventure at the end of this century .
Whatever happens , Ernst Zündel is already the victor .
He is the pacifist activist who has achieved this victory through the powers of reason and persuasion .
On May 11 , 1988 , the jury found Ernst Zündel guilty of knowingly spreading false news about the Holocaust .
He was sentenced to nine months ’ imprisonment and was granted bail after signing a gag order , promising not to write or speak about the “ Holocaust ” until the end of his appeal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ On August 27 , 1992 , the Canadian Supreme Court overturned Ernst Zündel ’ s conviction and declared the law unconstitutional under which he was dragged through the courts of Canada for nine years .
Canada has refused to apologize to Ernst Zündel for his ordeal , and has turned down his request for compensation for his legal costs etc .
In spring of 1995 , Zündel ’ s home in Toronto was the target of violent demonstrations .
Posters spread throughout Toronto urged violence against him .
On April 4 , 1995 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ razor blade and a mousetrap was sent to Zündel .
On May 7 , 1995 , Zündel ’ s house was the victim of arson , suffering some $ 400,000 of damage .
During the week of May 20 , 1995 , Zündel received a “ book parcel ” containing a bomb .
The police bomb squad detonated the bomb safely by remote control in a quarry near Toronto .
On August 5 , 1995 , the Canadian Minister of Citizenship and Immigration informed Zündel that he had been classified a “ security @ @ @ @ @ @ @ upheld by the Canadian Supreme Court on April 30 , 1998 .
In 1996 Zündel was dragged in front of the recently established Canadian Human Rights Commission for allegedly inciting hatred .
Any evidence introduced for his defense was declared to be irrelevant by the Commission , because when it comes to incitement to hatred , “ truth is not a defense , ” so the decision of the Human Rights Commission .
On May 25 , 1998 , this Commission issued a ruling finding him guilty of inciting hatred with the website @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was ordered to shut down his website and cease and desist from all public statements on the Holocaust .
All subsequent attempts to challenge the legality of the proceedings of the Human Rights Commission failed , despite harsh criticism even from the mass media .
In early 2000 , Ernst Zündel married the U.S. citizen Ingrid Rimland and immigrated to the United States .
Due to his marriage to a U.S. citizen , he applied for permanent legal residence .
The proceedings for legal residence were started properly , but some communication problems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lawyer .
As a result of this , Ernst Zündel missed a scheduled hearing at the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service in spring 2001 .
Hence , on February 5 , 2003 , Ernst Zündel was arrested , and on February 17 , the U.S. authorities deported him back to Canada , where he was held in solitary confinement in a high-security prison .
With the help of the new anti-terror legislation enacted after 9/11 , the Canadian authorities claimed that Zündel was a security risk to Canada and that the evidence proving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and could therefore not be disclosed .
All attempts to challenge this secret evidence and to challenge these kangaroo-style proceedings failed .
On March 1 , 2005 , Zündel was deported to Germany .
The Canadian authorities gave as reasons that Zündel was a security risk because he had associated with individuals and groups that were allegedly inclined to endorse or engage in violence and because his views destabilize the government of Germany .
As these lines are being written , Ernst Zündel is sitting in a German jail in Mannheim awaiting his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an offense which is punished with up to five years imprisonment .
In Germany , no exonerating evidence may be introduced in such trials , since that same evidence would constitute “ denial ” as well and would merely lead to another criminal indictment of the defendant and his lawyer .
P.S .
: On February 15 , 2007 , Ernst Zündel was sentenced to five years ’ imprisonment by judge Meinerzhagen of the Mannheim District Court .
The two years he had spent in Canada in solitary confinement were not recognized by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confinement had been unrelated .
On March 1 , 2010 , Ernst Zündel was finally released from prison .
When he was deported from the U.S. in 2005 , he was barred from returning to the U.S. for 20 years .
Since the German government has issued a European arrest warrant for his wife Ingrid for her revisionist activities , she can not come to Europe either , hence for this couple a married life together takes place only during brief vacation time spent in third countries outside of Europe .

After reviewing all of the material and inspecting all of the sites at Auschwitz, Birkenau and Majdanek, your author finds the evidence to be overwhelming. There were no execution gas chambers at any of these locations. It is the best engineering opinion of this author that the alleged gas chambers at the inspected sites could not have then been, or now be, utilized or seriously considered to function as execution gas chambers.

Chief Engineer
The First Leuchter Report: Preface by Prof. Dr. Robert Faurisson
Fred A. Leuchter, born in 1942, is an engineer living in Boston, Massachusetts, who specialized in the design of execution hardware used in prisons throughout the United States. One of his major projects was the design of a new gas chamber at the Missouri State Penitentiary at Jefferson City.
In January of 1988 I was in Toronto, Canada, assisting in the defense of Mr. Ernst Zündel, a German-Canadian who was on trial for spreading false news by publishing Did Six Million Really Die?, a booklet which challenged the prevailing view that six million jews were killed by the Nazis during World War II, primarily through the use of gas chambers using hydrocyanic gas (Zyklon B gas).
Ernst Zündel had been previously tried on the same charge in 1985. The trial lasted seven weeks and ended with a conviction and a sentence of fifteen months’ imprisonment. In January 1987, the Ontario Court of Appeal overturned the judgment because of grave errors in law and ordered that a new trial be held. The retrial began on January 18, 1988, and at the time of this writing is still proceeding.
My initial conversations with Fred Leuchter took place in Boston on the 3rd and 4th of February, 1988. I was impressed with the conciseness of his answers to my questions and by his ability to explain every detail of gassing procedures. He confirmed to me the particularly dangerous nature of an execution by hydrocyanic gas.
Executions using this gas were carried out for the first time in the United States in 1924, but as late as 1988 major difficulties still existed in the construction of execution gas chambers, including the problem of leakage. I noticed that Fred Leuchter did not question the standard notion of the Holocaust.
After my return from Boston to Toronto and after I had reported to Ernst Zündel on my discussions with Fred Leuchter, Mr. Zündel decided to ask the latter to prepare an expert opinion on the alleged gas chambers at Auschwitz, Birkenau and Majdanek.
Mr. Leuchter accepted the assignment after a weekend in Toronto reviewing wartime aerial photographs of the camps, plans of the crematoriums and alleged gas chambers, documents on Zyklon B and slides taken of the sites in the 1970’s by the Swedish researcher Ditlieb Felderer.
On February 25, 1988, Mr. Leuchter left for Poland together with his wife Carolyn, his draftsman Howard Miller, cinematographer Jürgen Neumann, and Polish-language interpreter Tijudar Rudolph. They returned eight days later on March 3rd.
Upon return, Fred Leuchter wrote his report of 192 pages including appendices. His conclusions were clear: the evidence was overwhelming that there were no execution gas chambers at Auschwitz, Birkenau and Majdanek and that the alleged gas chambers at these sites could not have been, then or now, utilized or seriously considered to function as execution gas chambers.
On the 20th and 21st of April, 1988, he stood in the witness stand in Toronto. At first, he replied to the questions put to him by Mr. Zündel’s defense lawyer, Douglas H. Christie, assisted by Keltie Zubko and Barbara Kulaszka. Mr. Leuchter then faced cross-examination by the crown prosecutor, John Pearson, an official who had been assisted throughout the trial by another crown attorney, a law clerk, and frequent consultations with jewish advisors sitting immediately behind him in the courtroom.
The examination and cross-examination took place in the presence of a judge and an eleven-member jury. In the courtroom, the atmosphere was one of extreme tension. I was sitting beside a number of revisionist experts, including Dr. William Lindsey, chief research chemist for Dupont Corporation before his retirement in 1985. Everyone in the courtroom, regardless of his or her own personal viewpoint on the topic under examination, was acutely aware, I think, of participating in a historical event. The myth of the gas chambers was ending.
The previous day, the director of the Missouri State Penitentiary, Bill Armontrout, had given testimony explaining the procedures and practical operation of a cyanide gas chamber. For every attentive listener it was revealed that if it was so difficult to execute a single person in this manner, then the alleged execution of hundreds of thousands of persons by the Germans using Zyklon B would equal the problem of trying to square the circle.

In 1983, I prepared for the Institute for Historical Review, Los Angeles, a book written in English on the Holocaust controversy which was to include, for the first time, a list of the questions put to the penitentiary wardens and their answers. The book, however, was never published: on July 4, 1984, American Independence Day, the archives of the Institute were destroyed by arson. This fire, for all intents and purposes, destroyed the financial viability of the Institute, and a number of projects, including that of my book, were abandoned.
The Holocaust has appeared to be a subject of enormous proportions. But this “giant,” as Dr. Arthur Butz pointed out in The Hoax of the Twentieth Century, is a giant with feet of clay. To see the feet of clay, one need only go to Auschwitz Concentration Camp in Poland. In the words of Dr. Wilhelm Stäglich, “the extermination thesis stands or falls with the allegation that Auschwitz was a ‘death factory’.” And for me, the whole mystery of Auschwitz is, in turn, concentrated on the 65 square meters of the alleged gas chamber of Auschwitz I and on the 210 square meters of the alleged gas chamber of Birkenau.

Without Ernst Zündel, almost nothing of what has now transpired would have been conceivable. He sacrifices everything in his search for historical accuracy and lives under difficult conditions, facing influential and powerful enemies. The pressure on him is permanent and takes the most unexpected and sometimes the most vicious forms. But he has a strong personality and charisma. He knows how to analyze any given situation, to evaluate the ratio of forces, to turn adversity into advantage. From all parts of the world he attracts and mobilizes competent people. He is a profound man, a genius who combines common sense with a keen understanding of people and situations.
He may once again go to prison for his research and beliefs or be threatened with deportation. All this is possible. Anything may happen when there is an intellectual crisis and a realignment of historical concepts of such dimension. Revisionism is the great intellectual adventure at the end of this century. Whatever happens, Ernst Zündel is already the victor. He is the pacifist activist who has achieved this victory through the powers of reason and persuasion.
On May 11, 1988, the jury found Ernst Zündel guilty of knowingly spreading false news about the Holocaust. He was sentenced to nine months’ imprisonment and was granted bail after signing a gag order, promising not to write or speak about the “Holocaust” until the end of his appeal proceedings. He thus joined Galileo.
On August 27, 1992, the Canadian Supreme Court overturned Ernst Zündel’s conviction and declared the law unconstitutional under which he was dragged through the courts of Canada for nine years. Canada has refused to apologize to Ernst Zündel for his ordeal, and has turned down his request for compensation for his legal costs etc.

Zündel was ordered to shut down his website and cease and desist from all public statements on the Holocaust.
All subsequent attempts to challenge the legality of the proceedings of the Human Rights Commission failed, despite harsh criticism even from the mass media.

The Canadian authorities gave as reasons that Zündel was a security risk because he had associated with individuals and groups that were allegedly inclined to endorse or engage in violence and because his views destabilize the government of Germany.
As these lines are being written, Ernst Zündel is sitting in a German jail in Mannheim awaiting his trial for “Holocaust denial,” an offense which is punished with up to five years imprisonment. In Germany, no exonerating evidence may be introduced in such trials, since that same evidence would constitute “denial” as well and would merely lead to another criminal indictment of the defendant and his lawyer.

AirGig is a new technology developed by AT&T to transfer Wi-Fi and wireless data over power lines using 4G LTE and 5G millimeter waves. To date, AT&T has submitted over 500 patents and applications related to the AirGig technology, which turns existing power lines into transmitters. According to AT&T’s glowing press releases, AirGig could even replace cell towers:
We hope that one day there will be no need to build new towers or bury new cables in locations close to aerial power lines. Instead, using AirGig patented technology, we would install devices to provide high speed broadband which can be clamped on by trained electrical workers in just a few minutes.
The AirGig technology aims to provide “ultra-fast” broadband Wi-Fi anywhere there are power lines, offering “last-mile wireless connectivity” without the need for deployment of any new fiber-to-the-home. As “last-mile” suggests, AT&T is framing its AirGig technology as a solution for extending wireless access to virtually everyone on the planet. The company writes:
Project AirGig has opened the door to the possibility of broadband internet connectivity for nearly everyone currently served by an electric utility. It’s a first-of-its-kind technology that is expected to deliver broadband connectivity to homes and mobile devices wherever there are power lines—whether urban, rural or underserved parts of the world.
What AT&T does not spell out in its glossy communications is that AirGig will make it impossible to escape exposure to wireless radiation, even in our homes. AirGig will saturate our environment—every inch of it—with close-proximity, high-intensity radiation. The few relatively safer areas that still exist will quickly disappear. Not only will those who already have become sick from wireless radiation have nowhere to escape to, but many more are likely to experience immediate health impacts.
She admitted that no one has looked at the health effects of smart cities—and added that it is ‘not her job’ to do so.
AirGig tests already underway
One of the AirGig selling points being promoted by AT&T is collaboration with utility companies “as they evolve toward the ‘smart grid’” and the rollout of so-called “smart cities.” In fact, in December 2017, AT&T announced that it was starting to test AirGig in rural and suburban Georgia in collaboration with the state’s utility, Georgia Power. (AT&T also announced a second field test site in an undisclosed location outside the U.S.)
Since that announcement two years ago, AT&T has been relatively quiet about AirGig’s progress. In September 2018, however, the company summarized results from its Georgia trial run as “encouraging” and announced its intention to expand the technology’s field trials.
In May 2017, I participated in a conference on 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT) organized by the American Bar Association and sponsored by various wireless companies.

After the lecture, I approached her to discuss implications for human health. She admitted that no one has looked at the health effects of smart cities—and added that it is “not her job” to do so.
At present, the deployment of 5G promises to interconnect 20 billion devices wirelessly, adding 800,000 ‘small cells’ (base stations) close to our homes and launching 50,000 satellites that will also require 1,000,000 antennas on the ground.
AirGig and 5G
The use of millimeter waves in a typical wireless configuration has limited range in comparison with equipment operating in other spectrum bands, but AT&T’s planned use of power line infrastructure as a “wave guide” for AirGig, will help extend the distance that millimeter-wave signals can travel. The testing in Georgia used a combination of millimeter-wave and LTE spectrum.
AirGig will be part of AT&T’s wider wireless infrastructure, particularly pertaining to 5G. The company stated in 2018, “We think Project AirGig and 5G have a lot of natural synergies, and we plan to test 5G paired with AirGig in the future.” In 2019, an AT&T vice president confirmed the company’s view of AirGig as “a very complementary technology to 5G.” Previous statements by AT&T indicate that the company wants to evolve its entire network to support gigabit service; it anticipates getting there using a “mixture of options”—AirGig in some cases and 5G or “G.fast” in other cases.

Children’s Health Defense FCC lawsuit
The deployment of dangerous wireless technologies such as AirGig is allowed without our consent and even notice because the harmful radiation emitted is within the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s) health and safety guidelines from 1996. These guidelines are at least three decades obsolete—as even the U.S. Department of the Interior has admitted.
On December 4, 2019, the FCC announced that it is not going to review its outdated guidelines, proclaiming that there is no evidence of harm. As a result, Children’s Health Defense and other Petitioners filed a lawsuit against the FCC on February 2, 2020. The other Petitioners include parents of children who have been injured, doctors and Professor David Carpenter—the Co-Editor of the BioInitiative Report, which is the largest review of the science on this issue. The lawsuit claims the FCC’s decision not to review its safety guidelines is capricious, arbitrary, non-evidence-based and an abuse of discretion. This historic case attacks the premise upon which the deployment and proliferation of wireless technology is based. Likely, it is the only way we can sue the government for the harm it has been creating and enabling.

The COVID-19 “pandemic” is primarily designed to empower the ruling elite and further its authoritarian reach. The primary tool is the innate human fear of death and this fear has been greatly magnified by the corporate propaganda media.
For those able to sidestep the trap of fear-mongering, it is obvious this disease is less of a threat to mortality than the seasonal flu and tuberculosis. COVID-19’s death rate thus far is minuscule by way of comparison, although the state and its media promise the number will rise precipitously and the only option is to “flatten the curve” by imposing authoritarian mandates, including the imposition of martial law, as is now the case in Italy.
The state has a monopoly on coercion and violence. It has demonstrated repeatedly throughout history that its first reflex during any crisis, real or invented, is to demand the obedience of the masses or they will suffer the consequences—arrest, fines, incarceration, possibly even death. We are witnessing this now in California, the liberal haven now on lockdown, soon to be transformed into martial law as many people refuse to believe COVID-19 is the boogieman the state claims. For the state, it is impermissible to go about our lives as normal. The same is now unfolding on the opposite coast in New York, another bastion of the liberal mindset.
In addition to furthering authoritarian rule, the state and its owners, banksters and transnational corporations are determined to take down an already sick economy, made so by decades of post-Keynesian economics and the neoliberal creed.

Recall Henry Kissinger’s remarks following the LA riots. This war criminal and Rockefeller operative said under the circumstances of an appropriate crisis, the people will run to the state and beg to be protected.

Comedian and actor Chris Rock, during the reign of Barack Obama, said the president is akin to a father demanding obedience from his children. This is how millions of people look at the government—as a beneficent daddy who will take care of all their needs and protect them during crises, either real or invented.
The COVID-19 “pandemic” will undoubtedly destroy an already debilitated economy and clear the way for a centralized, fascist, and authoritarian world government and an economic reconfiguration that will further enrich the ruling elite.
The philosophy of the neocon guru, Leo Strauss, is certainly applicable. Strauss believed the world needs an enlightened class of rulers modeled after Plato’s Republic. Shadia Drury, professor of political theory at the University of Regina in Saskatchewan, wrote during the reign of the Bush neocons:

The virus unleashed by jews is indeed still working , even 75 years after Patton made the above diary entry .
While governments around the world clamp down on their citizens under the guise of protecting them against the “ novel ” coronavirus , the occupied German government has decided to raid the homes of 21 leading Germans in the Reichsbuerger movement .
The Reichsbuerger , or Reich citizens , are somewhat like the “ sovereign citizens ” in the US .
They do not recognize the authority of the occupied German government and claim “ natural rights ” for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conspiracy theorists , racists , and anti-semites , though I honestly do not know what their core beliefs are .

Let ’ s examine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ society one in which people are allowed to publish and distribute material freely or one in which people have a totalitarian state barge into their homes and steal their belongings simply because the government disagrees ?

In actual reality , the Zionist Occupied Governments of the world are acting in a much more brutal and unjustified manner than the Nationalist Socialists ever did .
They ’ re the real tyrants .

Evidently the virus started by Morgenthau and Baruch of a Semitic revenge against all Germans is still working.” ~ General George S. Patton, 1945
The virus unleashed by jews is indeed still working, even 75 years after Patton made the above diary entry.
While governments around the world clamp down on their citizens under the guise of protecting them against the “novel” coronavirus, the occupied German government has decided to raid the homes of 21 leading Germans in the Reichsbuerger movement.
The Reichsbuerger, or Reich citizens, are somewhat like the “sovereign citizens” in the US. They do not recognize the authority of the occupied German government and claim “natural rights” for themselves. They are called far-right, conspiracy theorists, racists, and anti-semites, though I honestly do not know what their core beliefs are. Regardless, this group is obviously not kosher, so Germany’s ZOG has decided to ban the group and “SWAT” the members. 400 police officers stole a few firearms, “propaganda” material and small amounts of drugs (probably cannabis).
Horst Seehofer, Germany’s top security official, made a statement about the ban and the raids.
We are dealing with a group that distributes racist and anti-Semitic writings and in doing so systematically poisons our free society.”
Let’s examine the hypocrisy here. Is a free society one in which people are allowed to publish and distribute material freely or one in which people have a totalitarian state barge into their homes and steal their belongings simply because the government disagrees?
Ironically, the actions of the occupied German government actually sound very similar to the way they portray those evil “Nazis” they rail against constantly.
It’s kind of like how Israel puts Palestinian semites in open air concentration camps and then bombs innocent men, women, and children with outlawed White phosphorous, while simultaneously kvetching about how the Germans put them into camps.
In actual reality, the Zionist Occupied Governments of the world are acting in a much more brutal and unjustified manner than the Nationalist Socialists ever did. They’re the real tyrants.

renegadetribune--2020-03-22--Lia Fáil – The Stone of Destiny

Lia Fáil – The Stone of Destiny

By James Bonwick From Irish Druids And Old Irish Religions [ 1894 ] ELSEWHERE , mention has been made of the Irish Lia Fail , Stone of Fate , Fatal Stone , or Stone of Destiny , generally believed to have been the Irish Kings ’ Inauguration Stone , afterwards used for Pictish and Scottish kings at Scone , ultimately becoming the Coronation Stone in Westminster Abbey .
Like other subjects connected with Irish history , this point has been considerably discussed .
As the present work is mainly intended to give ordinary readers a citation of opinions upon ancient @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do more here than present various authorities upon this mysterious stone .
There are two competitors for the honour of authenticity , and both to be now seen ; one , a dozen feet long , standing erect , half out of the ground , on the Hill of Tara , in Ireland ; the other , twenty-six inches long , in the coronation chair at Westminster Abbey .
A legend in the Scalacronica , dated 1355 , declared it was Simon Brec ( a name of solar association ) “ who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Kings of Spain were wont to be crowned , and placed it in the most sovereign beautiful place in Ireland , called to this day the Royal Place ; and Fergus , son of Ferchar , brought the Royal Stone before received , and placed it where it is now , the Abbey of Scone.
” The Royal Place was Fordun ’ s Themor , and Blind Harry ’ s Canmor or Teamor ; i. e. Tara .
Baldred Bisset , early in the fourteenth century , had another version ; saying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ King of Egypt , with an armed band , and a large fleet , goes to Ireland , and there being joined by a body of Irish , she sails to Scotland , taking with her the royal seat , which he , the King of England , with other insignia of the Kingdom of Scotland , carried with him , by violence , to England.
” This Bisset sought to gain the Pope ’ s good offices for its restoration to Scone by our Edward I .
The Irish story in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , mentions the bringing to Ireland , from Falias in Scotland , of the Lia Fail , by the Tuath de Danaans .
Upon this , W. F. Skene has stated– “ The two legends at all events are quite antagonistic to each other , and there is one historic fact certain as to each .
First , the Lia Fail , or Irish Stone , did not leave Tara , but was still there in the eleventh century ; and secondly , the Scotch one was not in Argyle during the existence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , nor was used in the inauguration of their kings.
” Wintownis Chironikel , written in St. Serf ’ s monastery , of Inch , Loch Leven , about 1420 , has this account– The Latin inscription said to have been on the stone has been thus rendered by another– This has been fulfilled , say some , by James VI .
of Scotland , but of Irish descent , becoming James I. of England ; or , by so many Irish and Scotch holding official posts in England and the colonies .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ story , when he called the stone in Westminster “ a spurious relic , and utterly worthless ” ; as “ not the ancient coronation stone of Scotland at all , ” but a base imitation palmed off on Edward I .
That the Scots in their retreat should abandon the real stone , is to him “ the most monstrous of suppositions.
” Hidden awhile , it may have been lost sight of in the subsequent wars , or lost by the death of the custodian , as many another treasure has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who found it perfectly resemble the sandstones of the Scone district , says , “ To my eye the stone appears as if it had been originally prepared for building purposes , but had never been used.
” Even Shakespeare in Richard III .
called it It is curious , also , that while the stone Holy Rood , containing a portion of the true cross , was given up by Edward at earnest Scottish solicitation , no pressing was used for the return of the Coronation Stone , not even after the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , perhaps , intended to return the stone to Scotland , and a writ for the removal was dated July 1 , 1328 , according to the decision of a council at Northampton .
Dalrymple states that it was further determined on at a conference between David I. and Edward III .
in 1363 .
The Londoners , however , who accepted the belief of the stone being a national palladium , strongly objected to its leaving Westminster .
Irish , Scotch , Culdees , and Anglo-Israelites have honoured the stone from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of St. Columba , after having been the stone pillow of Jacob at Bethel , afterwards transferred to Scone .
The material , however , is unlike the geological formation of either Judah or Iona , any more than of Ireland itself .
But it is like that of Scone .
McCulloch ’ s Western Isles has this notice– “ The stone in question is a calcareous sandstone , and exactly resembles that which forms the doorway of Dunstaffnage Castle.
” How came Columba to have this Stone of Destiny for his nightly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that when Fergus carried it from Ireland , it was placed in Iona , before being transferred to the monastery of Dunstaffnage .
If it had been Jacob ’ s pillow , the reported visit of the angels at night to Columba is easily accounted for .
In Camden ’ s time , the Jacob theory was received .
But the Scottish Reformer and Historian , Buchanan , left this testimony three hundred odd years ago– “ The connecting this stone with the name of the patriarch Jacob was most likely a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ origin in this Abbey , since the most ancient document in which it was thus described appears to have been a tablet that was formerly suspended above the chair , but which has long ago partaken of the same fate as all the other written memorials that were in this chapel.
” As to the nature of that one in our Abbey , Neale , in his Westminster Abbey , describes it as “ chiefly quartz , with light and red-coloured felspar , light and dark mica , with probably some green hornblende @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reddish-grey clay slate or schist are likewise included in its composition ; and , on the upper side , there is also a dark , brownish , red-coloured , flint pebble.
” Dean Stanley thought the stone certainly from Scotland .
Scone is of Old Red Sandstone formation .
The Dean had a piece of it tested in Percy ’ s laboratory , when it was found to be slightly calcareous .
Examined under the microscope , grains of quartz and small scales of mica were detected .
Prof. Ramsay , 1865 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Keepe ’ s Monumenta Westmonasteriensia , in 1681 , tells us– “ Here is likewise on the west side the Feretory ( shrine ) of St. Edward , hard by the screan that separates the High Altar from the Chappel , the chair or seat whereon our Kings are accustomed to be inaugurated and crowned .
It appears extreamly antient both in its fashion and materials , being made of solid , hard , firm wood , with a back and sides of the same , under whose seat , supported by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feet , lies that so much famed Stone , whereon the patriarch Jacob is said to have reposed.–The ruines of this chair itself shows that heretofore it hath been fairly painted , and gilt with gold.
” The cost of the labours of carpenters , painters , and gilders upon the same , nearly seven hundred years ago , was £1 19s .
7d .
The chair itself is 6 ft. 9 in .
by 3 ft. 2 in .
The seat is 2 ft. 3 in .
from the ground .
There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The circular iron handles , for lifting it , are fixed to a staple .
A crack may be observed .
The stone is 26 in .
long , 16 ¾ broad , 10 ½ high .
Returning to its Scotch history , Skene discovers not a single example of a Pictish sovereign being crowned thereon ; and , supposing an instance were known , he wonders why the Scots , as racial foes of Picts , should have used it for the purpose .

From Irish Druids And Old Irish Religions [1894]
ELSEWHERE, mention has been made of the Irish Lia Fail, Stone of Fate, Fatal Stone, or Stone of Destiny, generally believed to have been the Irish Kings’ Inauguration Stone, afterwards used for Pictish and Scottish kings at Scone, ultimately becoming the Coronation Stone in Westminster Abbey.
Like other subjects connected with Irish history, this point has been considerably discussed. As the present work is mainly intended to give ordinary readers a citation of opinions upon ancient Irish religious topics, it is unnecessary to do more here than present various authorities upon this mysterious stone.
There are two competitors for the honour of authenticity, and both to be now seen; one, a dozen feet long, standing erect, half out of the ground, on the Hill of Tara, in Ireland; the other, twenty-six inches long, in the coronation chair at Westminster Abbey.
A legend in the Scalacronica, dated 1355, declared it was Simon Brec (a name of solar association) “who brought with him a stone on which the Kings of Spain were wont to be crowned, and placed it in the most sovereign beautiful place in Ireland, called to this day the Royal Place; and Fergus, son of Ferchar, brought the Royal Stone before received, and placed it where it is now, the Abbey of Scone.” The Royal Place was Fordun’s Themor, and Blind Harry’s Canmor or Teamor; i. e. Tara.
Baldred Bisset, early in the fourteenth century, had another version; saying, “The daughter of Pharaoh, King of Egypt, with an armed band, and a large fleet, goes to Ireland, and there being joined by a body of Irish, she sails to Scotland, taking with her the royal seat, which he, the King of England, with other insignia of the Kingdom of Scotland, carried with him, by violence, to England.” This Bisset sought to gain the Pope’s good offices for its restoration to Scone by our Edward I.
The Irish story in the Leabhar Gabhala, or Book of Conquests, mentions the bringing to Ireland, from Falias in Scotland, of the Lia Fail, by the Tuath de Danaans.
Upon this, W. F. Skene has stated–“The two legends at all events are quite antagonistic to each other, and there is one historic fact certain as to each. First, the Lia Fail, or Irish Stone, did not leave Tara, but was still there in the eleventh century; and secondly, the Scotch one was not in Argyle during the existence of the Irish colony of the Dalriada, nor was used in the inauguration of their kings.”
Wintownis Chironikel, written in St. Serf’s monastery, of Inch, Loch Leven, about 1420, has this account–
“A gret Stane this Kynge than had
That for this Kynge’s Sete was made;
And haldyne was a great Jowale
Wytht in the kynryk of Spayne hale.
This King bad this Simon (Brec) ta
That Stane, and in-tyl Yrland ga,
And wyn that land and occupy
And halde that Stane perpetually,
And make it his Sege thare
As thai of Spayne did it of are, p. 315
Broucht this Stane wytht in Scotland
Fyrst gwhen he came and wane that land,
And fyrst we set in Ikkolmkil,
And Scune pare estyr it wes broucht tyl;
And there it was syne mony day,
Qwhyll Edward gert have it away,
Nor will I the werd rehars
As I fynd of that Stane in wers;
Ne fallat fatum, Scoti quocung locatum,
Invenient Lapidem, regnare tenentur ibidem;
But gyf werdys faly hand be,
Qwhare euer that Stane yhe segyt se
Thare sall the Scottis be regnand,
And Lorddys hale oure all that Land.”
The Latin inscription said to have been on the stone has been thus rendered by another–
“Except old seers do feign,
And wizards’ wits be blind,
The Scots in place must reign,
Where they this stone shall find.”
This has been fulfilled, say some, by James VI. of Scotland, but of Irish descent, becoming James I. of England; or, by so many Irish and Scotch holding official posts in England and the colonies.
But James Mason did not believe the story, when he called the stone in Westminster “a spurious relic, and utterly worthless”; as “not the ancient coronation stone of Scotland at all,” but a base imitation palmed off on Edward I. That the Scots in their retreat should abandon the real stone, is to him “the most monstrous of suppositions.” Hidden awhile, it may have been lost sight of in the subsequent wars, or lost by the death of the custodian, as many another treasure has been.
Geikie, the geologist, who found it perfectly resemble the sandstones of the Scone district, says, “To my eye the stone appears as if it had been originally prepared for building purposes, but had never been used.” Even Shakespeare in Richard III. called it
“A base, foul stone, made precious by the foil
Of England’s chair.”
It is curious, also, that while the stone Holy Rood, containing a portion of the true cross, was given up by Edward at earnest Scottish solicitation, no pressing was used for the return of the Coronation Stone, not even after the crushing battle of Bannockburn.
It was, perhaps, intended to return the stone to Scotland, and a writ for the removal was dated July 1, 1328, according to the decision of a council at Northampton. Dalrymple states that it was further determined on at a conference between David I. and Edward III. in 1363. The Londoners, however, who accepted the belief of the stone being a national palladium, strongly objected to its leaving Westminster.
Irish, Scotch, Culdees, and Anglo-Israelites have honoured the stone from the fancy that it was the stone pillow of St. Columba, after having been the stone pillow of Jacob at Bethel, afterwards transferred to Scone. The material, however, is unlike the geological formation of either Judah or Iona, any more than of Ireland itself. But it is like that of Scone. McCulloch’s Western Isles has this notice–“The stone in question is a calcareous sandstone, and exactly resembles that which forms the doorway of Dunstaffnage Castle.”
How came Columba to have this Stone of Destiny for his nightly pillow? It is said, however, that when Fergus carried it from Ireland, it was placed in Iona, before being transferred to the monastery of Dunstaffnage. If it had been Jacob’s pillow, the reported visit of the angels at night to Columba is easily accounted for.
In Camden’s time, the Jacob theory was received. But the Scottish Reformer and Historian, Buchanan, left this testimony three hundred odd years ago–“The connecting this stone with the name of the patriarch Jacob was most likely a monkish invention, and not improbably had origin in this Abbey, since the most ancient document in which it was thus described appears to have been a tablet that was formerly suspended above the chair, but which has long ago partaken of the same fate as all the other written memorials that were in this chapel.”
As to the nature of that one in our Abbey, Neale, in his Westminster Abbey, describes it as “chiefly quartz, with light and red-coloured felspar, light and dark mica, with probably some green hornblende, intermixed; some fragments of a reddish-grey clay slate or schist are likewise included in its composition; and, on the upper side, there is also a dark, brownish, red-coloured, flint pebble.” Dean Stanley thought the stone certainly from Scotland. Scone is of Old Red Sandstone formation. The Dean had a piece of it tested in Percy’s laboratory, when it was found to be slightly calcareous. Examined under the microscope, grains of quartz and small scales of mica were detected. Prof. Ramsay, 1865, had the like opinion of its geology.
Keepe’s Monumenta Westmonasteriensia, in 1681, tells us–“Here is likewise on the west side the Feretory (shrine) of St. Edward, hard by the screan that separates the High Altar from the Chappel, the chair or seat whereon our Kings are accustomed to be inaugurated and crowned. It appears extreamly antient both in its fashion and materials, being made of solid, hard, firm wood, with a back and sides of the same, under whose seat, supported by four lions curiously carved, instead of feet, lies that so much famed Stone, whereon the patriarch Jacob is said to have reposed.–The ruines of this chair itself shows that heretofore it hath been fairly painted, and gilt with gold.” The cost of the labours of carpenters, painters, and gilders upon the same, nearly seven hundred years ago, was £1 19s. 7d.
The chair itself is 6 ft. 9 in. by 3 ft. 2 in. The seat is 2 ft. 3 in. from the ground. There appears a groove in the stone. The circular iron handles, for lifting it, are fixed to a staple. A crack may be observed. The stone is 26 in. long, 16 ¾ broad, 10 ½ high.
Returning to its Scotch history, Skene discovers not a single example of a Pictish sovereign being crowned thereon; and, supposing an instance were known, he wonders why the Scots, as racial foes of Picts, should have used it for the purpose. Robertson, the historian, traced Columba’s relics to Dundalk, not Scone.
A work published about 1686 describes the stone as 22 in. long, 13 broad, and 11 deep; and says, “whereof history relates that it is the stone whereon Jacob is said to have lain his head in the Plain of Luga; and that it was brought to Brigantia (Corunna) in the Kingdom of Spain, in which place Gathol, King of Scots, sat on it as his throne. Thence it was brought into Ireland by Simon Brec, first King of Scots, about 700 years before Christ’s time, and from thence into Scotland about 300 years before Christ, and in A.D. 850 was placed in the Abbey Scone.” Will. Rishanger mentions Milo, King of the Spanish Scots, giving it to his son Simon Brek.
Dr. O’Connor cites an Irish MS. which records the removal of Lia Fail from Tara to the Connaught Kings at Cruachan, and so it lost its sounding property till Con’s day, second century; that it was sent by Murtagh Mac Earca to his brother Fergus Mac Earca of Dalriada in Argyle. O’Flaherty, confounding its asserted removal from Iona to Scone in the ninth century, affirmed it was sent then by Aodh Finliath to his father-in-law, Kenneth Mac Alpin. Another version is, that Simon Brek (speckled sun) brought it up with his anchor off the west coast of Ireland.
Pennant narrates–“The stone which had first served Jacob for his pillow, was afterwards transported into Spain, where it was used as a seat of justice by Gathalus, contemporary with Moses.” Boece declares this Gathalus was the son of Cecrops of Athens, and that he married Scota, daughter of Pharaoh. Haydn’s Dictionary of Dates relates that “the Lia Fail, on which the Kings of Munster were crowned, was laid in the Cathedral of Cashel.”
The Royal Irish Academy had the full Tara story from Dr. Petrie’s pen. Referring to what he considered the Lia Fail, the author mentioned its position by the Mound of Hostages, though removed to the Forradh Rath in 1798, over some graves after the Tara fight. “But the mound,” said he, “is still popularly called Bed Thearghais; that is, Penis Fergusii, an appellation derived from the form of this stone.” Other MSS. “identify the Lia Fail with the stone on the Mound of the Hostages.” Elsewhere he said–“Between the Irish and Scottish accounts of the history of this stone there is a total want of agreement, which shows that the Scottish writers, when they recorded their tradition, were not acquainted with, or disregarded, the accounts of it preserved by the Irish. The Irish accounts uniformly state that the Lia Fail was brought into Ireland from the north of Germany by the Tuatha de Danaan colony.”
The conclusion of Dr. Petrie is as follows–“It is an interesting fact, that a large obeliscal pillar stone, in a prostrate position, occupied, till a recent period, the very situation, on the Hill of Tara, pointed out as the place of the Lia Fail by the Irish writers of the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth centuries; and that this was a monument of pagan antiquity, an idol stone, as the Irish writers call it, seems evident from its form and character.”
It is, in fact, the remnant of an ancient object of worship, the honouring of the symbol of production, or source of life.
One may smile at a clergyman, the Rev. Mr. Glover, saying of the stone of Jacob, that it was reverenced long by the Jews, and “being lost in the destruction of their sanctuary, 588 B.C., has appeared in Ireland as the precious Liag Phail brought thither by Hebrew men in a ship of war, cir. 584″ Mr. Hine, in Leading the Nations to Glory, regards that stone as “a witness to God’s covenants in the futures.”
One may, also, smile at Dean Stanley’s enthusiasm over the rival stone at Westminster, as a “link which unites the throne of England with the traditions of Tara and Ions.”
Skene determines that the Lia Fail “never was anywhere but at Tara,” while the other stone “never was anywhere but at Scone.” Mr. G. Hudson rightly exclaims–“It is a matter of surprise that the Council of the Royal Irish Academy, if they believe this (at Tara) to be the Lia Fail, have made no effort to save such a relic.” But Skene’s conclusion upon this vexed question of, authenticity is as follows–
“There was no connection between the stone at Scone and the Lia Fail at Tara, and the legends of their wanderings, like those of the tribes with whom they were associated, are nothing but myth and fable.”
It is uncomfortable to have one’s pleasing romances disturbed; and the Stone of Destiny has had to encounter the searching light of modern inquiry, to the destruction of many pretty fancies. It is good to be happy; it is better to be true.
