    Who do you think the Mother Country was sending to colonize The New World?

    Say you’re a Lord with five [legitimate] sons; eldest gets the title and all the goodies, but you’ve got to do something for the rest. One to the Army, one to the Navy, one to the Church, one to the House of Commons, and the youngest gets 10,000 acres of farm land in the colonies.
