I have asked by Mr. Glenn P. Goffin to make a post to alt.quotations. He is seeking a good citation for a quote attributed to Lafayette: "If the liberties of the American people are ever destroyed, they will fall by the hands of the Catholic clergy." It does appear to be fairly widely attributed to Lafayette, usually with the date 1789, but no further citation information. Sometimes the quote deletes the word "Catholic" Mr. Goffin apparently believes this is a misattribution. Any help appreciated. Regards, Sam
