"When you looked outside the view was distorted and when you looked inside it was distorted, " he said. 1 think it is important that we do not pull the blind down on that window." he said, in calling for a toast for a, united Canada. Lieut. Col. P.J. Bigelow spoke about the Midland Regiment at -the Battle of Batoche. "Lt *as the first time in the history of this continent that an alI-Canadian colonel had led an ali-Canadian regi- ment into a campaign, " he said. "Please note that 1 caîl it a campaign," said Bigelow. "Lt was a whole campaign that lasted for months and was waged through Saskatchewan and Manitoba." he said. The speaker explained how Louis Riel, a half-breed had lead the Red River Jiebelliion in 1870, three years after confederation and had At- tacked Fort Garry and murdered many men includ- ing Thomas Scott, the editor of a local paper. Bigelow noted that Riel was pursued and the settlers forced him to fiee to the United States. "Not much was heard about hlm for 15 years," he saîd. Then Rieli organized the Metis Indians and some of the other tribes and they took over the while territory out there and declared himself independent of Canada." said Bigelow. This crisis of unity of the country occurred 92 years ago and brought out the: anger of' Eastern Ontario, he said. The counties of ýHastings,' Prince Edward, Victoria, Durham, Peterborough and the District of Haliburton began raising volunteers. The train started out from Belle- ville to Cobourg and then through Port Hope up the old, Midland railway line. "They had a terrible ordeal of hacking their way through the bush, " said Bigelow. "And portages were somnetimes almost vertical. Once they got out on the Prairie, there was stili the long March to the North. "The rebels infiicted heavy casualties to the regiment," recalled Bigelow. He pointed out this was thé first time the gattling gun was used in a war campaign in Canada. -Port Hope Guide Walk it to me!
