Windsor – Seat of the Muses


William and Lucy Haliburton, Windsor
to their daughters charlotte &
Lucy & son-in-law in Tobago

Windsor, 29 July 1790
(Thomas was born
1796)

…Here with us, our Noble Windsor looks forward with Expectation…Fatning
sheaves & fruitful Seasons promise to fill the Horn of Plenty till it can
hold no more…Windsor hopes to be the seat of the muses. Academies & Colleges
shall distinguish this from all Acadien villages …we are already dignified with
a stately new church that will contain 500 Hearers and of Tiltons and Clarkes
our church shall never be wanting.
