Excerpt from Acta Ridleiana: Easter, 1901
The great Exposition, drawing to gether the heterogeneous multitudes of Europe, Asia and America, had passed and gone without the myriad outrages that were predicted. Paris, the queen of many moods, sate self-contained within herself and let the Saxon and the Teuton that she hated, hold, for the time, their scattered acres of her 'area in peace.
Anarchy appeared to have reached its high-water mark in the slaying of the Austrian Dowager Empress, the President of France, the King of Italy.
