Book Description
Excerpt from A Rebellion: A Story of the Red River Uprising In the accompanying story the statements in connection with the Red River Rebellion are historically correct. For the topographical details in connection with the British expedition, together with some of the incidents, I am indebted to the jottings of a private journal published in 1871, "The Red River Expedition," by Capt. G. L. Huyshe, one of the staff of Sir Garnet Wolseley, now Lord Wolseley, one of Great Britain's ablest commandants. The inner story of the life of the prisoners in Fort Garry and the execution of Scott were obtained from the late Rev. Dr. Young, who was there bravely doing his duty throughout the trouble. The Chaplain, Pete, and other characters, are, of course, simply ebullitions of the author's fancy. It may be remarked that Riel, who was mistakenly allowed to escape punishment for the brutal killing of Scott, and afterwards actually returned to Canada unmolested, led another insurrection in later years, and many citizen soldiers were killed before the trouble was suppressed. For this he was very properly hanged, as he should have been in the first place. Wolseley's expeditionary force consisted of regular troops and Canadian militia. Young men of the Dominion, and many of them not young, eagerly responded to the call for service, but many were doomed to disappointment, as it was decided that only those of the hardiest and strongest constitutions should be allowed to undertake the great and sustained physical hardships which confronted the expedition. The development of the great Canadian North-West since the period mentioned in the following pages constitutes in itself a veritable romance.
