Footnotes to History
The Prince of Wales
Toward the close of the thirteenth century. Saxon King Edward determined once and for all to subdue the rebellious tribesmen dwelling in the hills of Wales. He chose this Auspicious moment because David, Ist of the lineal princes of the Welsh, had been exiented by the English as a traitor in
1283, and the hillsmen lacked a regent
While prosecuting the war, Edward became a father. Be cause it was in those days the custom for a queen to follow her warrior husband on the battle trail, this baby boy was born at Carnarvon Castle. in Welsh territory.
Sensing the opportunity of uniting England and Wales in a common bond, Edward promised the defiant chiefs a prince born in Wales aʊd unable even to speak English. The hillsmen gladly offered peace in return, and, although disconcerted on finding they had been duped, kept their pret.
Thus it was that Edward of Carnarvon became the first of England's twenty Princes of Wales. The first son born to an English sovereign does not necessarily inherit the title, how. ever; for the honour must be formally bestowed by Parliament. Therefore, even should a son be born to King George V1, the child would not take automatic possession of the historic title relinquished by Edward VIII in 1936.-Joseph A. Moore.

dependency of Chile since 1080,
The Island is of volcanic origin and its particular interest attaches to the fact that It is one of the richest sites of megaliths. There are some 113 megalithic platforms on the higher elevations of the island, the largest being 190 feet long, feet wide and 8 feet high, and in this platform known as "Ohau" there was used 门 stonc weighing six tons.
Besides the platforms and the statues are the hyloglyphs, small. pieces of wood covered with finely incised figures that are highly.con- ventionalised.
According to philological analysis the nearest affinity of the migration swarm which peopled the Island is with the Tuamotu, and the settle- ment could have taken place some 10 centuries ago. The Island is of the Polynesian group in the South Pacide Ocean, about 2,000 miles west of the Chilean coast.
