Framed / ready to hang "Equally zealous, after another fashion, was the Reverend Samuel Moody, popularly known as Father Moody, or Parson Moody, minister of York and senior chaplain of the expedition. Though about seventy years old, he was amazingly tough and sturdy. ... [H]e abhorred the Holy Father as an embodied Antichrist. His pachydermatous nature made him invulnerable as a rhinoceros ... an intolerable meddler in the affairs of other people. ... The old Puritan fanaticism was rampant in him; and when he sailed for Louisbourg, he took with him an axe, intended, as he said, to hew down the altars of Antichrist and demolish his idols." ... "[T]hrough all these gambols ran an undertow of enthusiasm, born in brains still fevered from the "Great Awakening." The New England soldier, a growth of sectarian hotbeds, fancied that he was doing the work of God. The army was Israel, and the French were Canaanitish idolaters. Red-hot Calvinism, acting through generations, had modified the transplanted Englishman; and the decendant of the Puritans was never so well pleased as when teaching their duty to other people, whether by pen, voice, or bombshells." --Francis Parkman, A Half-Century of Conflict The Kennedy name is one of the most common in post-occupation Louisbourg.
