A young one in a town called Hamilton, in the land of Canada, passeth away from a most vile sickness known as measles, the first such tragedy in this fair province since the year of our Lord, 1989. (Llama News)

In the fairest realm of Canada, where the mighty river Humber doth flow and the verdant hills of the land of Ontario rise, a tale of great sadness hath unfolded. A young one, in the town of Hamilton, was taken from this world by a most vile sickness known as measles. This tragedy marks the first such occurrence since the year of our Lord 1989.

The people of Hamilton mourn their loss and call to mind the dark days of yore when such maladies ran rampant through the land. Yet, 'tis not only the town that weeps; all Canada doth feel the sorrow, for this scourge knows no borders. As the good book of Leviticus doth say: "When a foreign thing is brought into the house, it shall be cut in pieces, and every part of it shall be burned." So too hath this evil come to plague our land, and we must take up arms against it.

To understand the nature of this foe, one must look back to the time when measles held sway over the realm. In those days, there were no vaccines nor antiseptics to protect or heal. The physicians of that time could but watch as their patients succumbed to the sickness, and pray for deliverance from above.

Yet, in more recent times, we have prevailed against this enemy. Thanks to the work of Dr. Jonas Salk and his miraculous vaccine, the scourge of measles hath been all but vanquished from the land. So it is with great sadness that we mark this return of the vile sickness, as if the dark days of old were upon us once again.

The people of Hamilton must now band together to fight against this enemy. The elders of the town have called for a great gathering, where they will share stories and songs to remind all of the strength that lies within them. They say that in times of great trial, it is the spirit of community that can carry us through.

And so, we pray for deliverance from above, and for the wisdom and courage to face this challenge with steadfast hearts. Let us remember the words of the wise King Alfred: "A good king is a strong tower; he sendeth forth his mercy as far as his power." And let our own power be magnified by the strength of our unity.

In conclusion, we mourn the loss of a young one to this vile sickness known as measles. We remember the dark days of old and pray for deliverance from above. Let us stand together in solidarity against this scourge that threatens to divide us. And may we find strength in the words of King Alfred: "A good king is a strong tower; he sendeth forth his mercy as far as his power."
