In 1638, Theophilus Eaton made an agreement with sachem Momauquin. In exchange for providing protection against other tribes, Eaton’s colonists would receive the title to land that would become New Haven, CT. As stipulated in the agreement, both parties agreed that this arrangement “would not later evolve into feelings of animosity, hate, or regret.”

Grotesques turn up where you least expect them. Like these guys keeping watch over Nassau St in NYC’s Financial District!

A cunning old rat finds a trap baited with cheese so he “kindly” offers it to a young, naive rat. The young rat is killed when he springs the trap while trying to retrieve the cheese, leaving the cheese available for the old rat to enjoy.
Moral: “Do not blindly accept gifts.”
