I confess that I have great sympathy with those who object to emigration as carried on hitherto, and if it be a consolation to any of my critics I may say at once that so far from compulsorily expatriating any Englishman I shall refuse to have any part or lot in emigrating any man or woman who does not voluntarily wish to be sent out.
"In-Darkest-England-and-the-Way-Out"
Booth, William
It is very deplorable when the owners of historic buildings should act in this "dog-in-the-manger" fashion, and surely the time has come when the Government should have power to compulsorily acquire such historic monuments when their natural protectors prove themselves to be incapable or unwilling to preserve and save them from destruction.
"Vanishing England"
P. H. Ditchfield
The Professor, being deprived of his volume, seemed to awake compulsorily, and come out into a cold, unlearned world.
