Quotes

We ask justice for the smallfolk of Sherrer and Wendish Town and the Mummer's Ford.[1]

Mad Huntsman: Lions, you call yourselves. At Sherrer and the Mummer's Ford, girls of six and seven years were raped, and babes still on the breast were cut in two while their mothers watched. No lion ever killed so cruel.
Sandor: I was not at Sherrer, nor the Mummer's Ford. Lay your dead children at some other door.[4]
