  • The Growth and Evolution of an Historical Myth, 1825-1914
    MURRAY BARKLEY The Loyalist Tradition in New Brunswick: the Growth and Evolution of an Historical Myth, 1825-1914 . They were But words are wanting to tell what they were; Ask what men should be? and they were that. — Quoted in the New Brunswick Courier (Saint John), May 23, 1863 (from the Colonial Presbyterian). The "Loyalist experiment" in New Brunswick was the attempt to establish an exclusive Elysium in the north. It was to have been based on a hierarchical social structure, an agricultural society founded on large land-holdings, and a corporate, self-sufficient community of loyal, well-disposed subjects. It had been designed as a bastion against levelling republican principles.1 The experiment, as such, proved an unmitigated failure. For, united by war, the Loyalists were divided in peace. Throughout the American Revolution, the adversities of war had produced a powerful cohesion among the Loyalists. But in peace, the circumstances of the first settlement of New Brunswick seem to have precipitated only diversity and dissent.2 What really constituted 1 W.S.
