As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I'm reading a history of 1176 by historian David McColloch, and it was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, which means only elitists are awarded that cash as liberals are not inclined to know a good writer from an average one, and McColloch is average.
He mentioned in passing in George Washington's siege of Boston, that Lord Howe..............
Well there was this Tory American named Joshua Loring jr, and he had a wife named Elizabeth Lloyd Loring and McColloch states that she was a handsome woman. So handsome that the Mister traded her for the prisoner of war fund, whereby he was fired for corruption an blamed for the holocaust murders of numbers of American Patriots, to which the British staff said:
The Mister fingered the cash while the Lord enjoyed the madame.
I do not care what era is it, as the above woman is ugly. If that is what women looked like in 1776, I wonder how bad the whores were in Boston's red light district as the British wondered too for a Quaker city, it flushed more whores than any city on the planet.
I could say that must we where the Quakers got that shaking going on reputation with all that fornication and adultery cohabitating.
Sandwiched between news of political friction between Whigs and the colonial mother country, and a random encounter with a barrel of spirituous drink, Elizabeth’s marriage announcement to Joshua Loring, Jr. presents a curious aspect to hindsight-endowed modern readers. The unrelated news accompanying the report of her nuptials appear as omens of her later notoriety as the alleged Loyalist mistress of General Howe during the New York campaign and British occupation of Philadelphia. Her husband Joshua Loring, Jr. (d. 1789) presumably was the willing cuckold.
But when you look at Billy Howe, or Lord William Howe, he looks like he was dropped on his head and his parents were related in all of them hatched for eggs. Perhaps Joshua Loring thought he made a deal having someone bed that ugly woman who was uglier than she was. Then again having seen Joshua Loring, he made a better looking woman than the Mrs.
Damn that woman's hair looks like steel wool and that nose you could cut glass with. Just picture that with dead fish bleached out white skin and a mouth a grouper would have and Lord Howe must have been hard up in having a choice between whores and sexing the odd grouper.
Howe ate like king though as others starved. Had his house warm and others froze. Maybe an ugly woman was just the way things get evened out. He certainly could have stuck a better deal than a government post and paying cash for that. Of course maybe the deal was that the husband had to take her back after Washington caused Howe with his Tories to flee to Halifax Nova Scotia from Boston.
Shit like this makes me cringe, as I wonder now if Cleopatra was some horse faced dog, Bathsheba was some accident faced gargoyle that a chariot ran over twice, as you so want vixens to be vixeny, not something that will scare the rats away.
Just amazes me in all that was sticking out of them stinky wool clothes was that head of Elizabeth Lloyd Loring and Billy Howe wanted that around.
Damn shame to take advantage of a blind man.
Nuff Said
