In the township of West Gwillinbury, north of Toronto, near London, and in the Talbot settlement, near St.Thomas--all in Upper Canada--they received their lands.

Half a century later, in one of the townships north of Toronto, the writer had pointed out to him a man named MacBeth weighing two hundred and fifty pounds, of whom it was humourously told that he had been carried all the way from Red River.

The explanation of course was, that he had been brought as an infant on this famous Hegira of the Selkirk Colonists.
The finishing of Cameron's work on the Red River, was handed over to Alexander Macdonell.

The plan was nothing less than that the settlers remaining should be driven by force from the banks of Red River.

The party led by Macdonell was made up of Bois-Brules, under dashing young Cuthbert Grant.
