GUEST,Charles | Lyr Add: Ballad of New Scotland (25) | RE: Lyr Add: Ballad of New Scotland | 20 Feb 12 |
I have the original copy of the Gent. Mag. from Feb 1750. It was a propaganda piece to get the lower classes of the UK to settle in Nova Scotia. Not Scottish by itself at all. The first non-military settlers were bribed by the UK gov't to settle in Nova Scotia in exchange for one free years supplies. By the way for those that don't know, Nova Scotia is latin for New Scotland :o) |
