Just a sample:

The king's awakening

French agents in Canada, after the defeat of their arms, in 1753, spread among the Indians the information that the king of France had fallen asleep for the last few years, but that he had just awakened and that his first words were: "We must immediately expel the English who have entered the country of my red sons." The news spread throughout the continent and was one of the causes of the famous Pontiac conspiracy.
