tHANK God we are related to the hard working indians, they came and they conquered, after living in Guyana for 5 years, they had already started to build a future, or atleast they saw a future, it was hard for them to just pack up and leave.  They were getting land to live on and jobs.

until CBJ arrived to lead them astray
