Amade Aba - Last Years

Last Years

King Charles betrayed Amade Aba by having him assassinated by Philip Druget and his supporters. This took place in Kassa just before the Saint Michael Feast on 5 September 1311. Part of Amade’s estates were confiscated and divided between Charles and his supporters.

Famous quotes containing the word years:

    If I get the forty additional years statisticians say are likely coming to me, I could fit in at least one, maybe two new lifetimes. Sad that only one of those lifetimes can include being the mother of young children.
    Anna Quindlen (20th century)

    Miss Knag still aimed at youth, although she had shot beyond it, years ago.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
