RE: Who is this person?
Does look a bit like Darwin, Eva. But Rob is close to certain that he's got it.
And, yes! Rob is correct. I was going to struggle for more clues. Maybe mention the Secret Six. And John Brown. The 'Spartan' first name and the link to Spoonerism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysander_Spooner "The proto-libertarian and anarchist Lysander Spooner argued that nowhere did the Constitution explicitly endorse slavery. It was for defenders of the values of 1776 and 1789 to help the slaves overthrow an illegitimate tyranny. In this he had the support of the Republican Frederick Douglass, who also wanted the United States to live up to its founding documents rather than to nullify or negate them. Meanwhile, the Democrats were unashamed advocates of the extension of slavery, and Lincoln was willing to submit to one humiliation after another in order, as he never tired of saying, "to preserve the Union." https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...ry/303915/ “The honest man, tho' e'er sae poor, Is king o' men for a' that” Robert Burns |
