I decided to just punt on FF 49, so I 'pkg delete'ed it & tried to 
install FF 47 from cache:


[root at kabini1, /etc, 8:33:22am] 364 % pkg delete -y firefox-49.0_3,1
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
Deinstallation has been requested for the following 1 packages (of 0

The operation will free 105 MiB.

There are several FF packages in cache:

How do I get pkg to install FF 47 from cache ? Remember, FreeBSD 9.3R. 
TIA & have a good one.
