For anyone else like me who is having a bit of trouble reading it: You are hereby ordered to fall upon the rebells, the McDonalds of Glenco, and put all to the sword under seventy. you are to have a speciall care that the old Fox and his sones doe upon no account escape your hands, you are to secure all the avenues that no man escape. This you are to putt in execution att fyve of the clock precisely; and by that time, or very shortly after it, I’ll strive to be att you with a stronger party: if I doe not come to you att fyve, you are not to tarry for me, but to fall on. This is by the Kings speciall command, for the good & safety of the Country, that these miscreants be cutt off root and branch. See that this be putt in execution without feud or favour, else you may expect to be dealt with as one not true to King nor Government, nor a man fitt to carry Commissione in the Kings service. Expecting you will not faill in the full-filling hereof, as you love your selfe, I subscribe these with my hand att Balicholis Feb: 12, 1692. For their Majesties service

Ryan (LOC P&P) said:
Thanks mik.maine, for the link to the great video. Woody's song adds so much by telling the story of the coal miners' strike in Colorado, and the Ludlow Massacre. Swanq: the woman in this photograph appears to be dressed the same as the woman talking to the reporters. It's just hard to tell for sure. We'll fill in more information the next time we update the record.
