Disappointing News
Posted: Wed Sep 14, 2016 5:07 pm
Hi all,
It has been a long time since I've posted, but wanted to discuss the recent news about Bachuil.
First, I want to be clear about our Chief's decision to put Bachuil up for sale. I understand his reasons and would do the same thing if in his shoes.
Having said this, I must profess my dismay that Bachuil will be sold as I am not sure what this means for the Clan.
The Chief says he is keeping the land for historical reasons. Not sure what this means. Are we talking about the land granted in the 1544 Charter? Sure hope so. If not, are we losing the whole underpinnings for be recognized as a Clan?
What will happen to the sacred staff? Is it staying at Bachuil? Again I hope so for the same reasons. I am certainly willing to do anything we can to keep it there, including financial assistance.
Hope all is well with the many fine contributors to this site.
