The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble.

  • THE 1866 FENIAN RAID on CANADA WEST: a Study Of
    ` THE 1866 FENIAN RAID ON CANADA WEST: A Study of Colonial Perceptions and Reactions Towards the Fenians in the Confederation Era by Anthony Tyler D’Angelo A thesis submitted to the Department of History In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2009 Copyright © Anthony Tyler D’Angelo, 2009 Abstract This thesis examines Canada West’s colonial perceptions and reactions towards the Fenian Brotherhood in the Confederation era. Its focus is on the impact of the Fenians on the contemporary public mind, beginning in the fall of 1864 and culminating with the Fenian Raid on the Niagara frontier in June 1866. Newspapers, sermons, first-hand accounts, and popular poems and books from the time suggest the Fenians had a significant impact on the public mind by nurturing and reflecting the province’s social and defensive concerns, and the Raid on Canada West was used by contemporaries after the fact to promote Confederation and support a young Canadian identity. ii Writing a thesis is sometimes fun, often frustrating and always exacting, but its completion brings a satisfaction like no other. I am grateful to Queen’s University and the Department of History for giving me the opportunity to pursue this study; its completion took far longer than I thought, but the lessons learned were invaluable. I am forever indebted to Dr. Jane Errington, whose patience, knowledge, guidance and critiques were as integral to this thesis as the words on the pages and the sources in the bibliography. I cannot imagine steering the murky waters of historiography and historical interpretation without her help.

  • {PDF EPUB} Ridgeway the American Fenian Invasion and the 1866 Battle That Made Canada by Peter Vronsky FENIAN HISTORY the Fenian Raids on Canada 1866
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Ridgeway The American Fenian Invasion And The 1866 Battle That Made Canada by Peter Vronsky FENIAN HISTORY The Fenian Raids on Canada 1866. Fenians.org is dedicated to the history of the early Fenian movement and the Irish-American insurgent raid on Canada on June 1-3, 1866. The invasion culminated with the battles at Limestone Ridge and Fort Erie, on June 2, 1866, known collectively as the Battle of Ridgeway, Canada's first modern battle fought in a new age of telegraph, railroad, steam power, mass print media, parliamentary democracy and the rifled barrel. For the Fenians the Battle of Ridgeway was the first celebrated Irish victory over the forces of the British Empire since the Battle of Fontenoy when in 1745 the exile Irish brigade –‘The Wild Geese’—in the service of the French king charged the Duke of Cumberland’s elite Coldstream Guards and scattered them. The Fenians, also known as the Irish Revolutionary Brotherhood, and later the Irish Republican Brotherhood (I.R.B.) were the predecessors of the I.R.A.—the Irish Republican Army. For Canadians Ridgeway was the first battle to be fought exclusively by Canadian troops and led on the battlefield entirely by Canadian officers. The Battle of Ridgeway was also the last battle fought in what would become the Province of Ontario in the 1867 Confederation of Canada. It was also the battle in which Canada's army suffered its first nine battlefield deaths: the first officer, sergeant, corporal and six privates killed in action. Battle of Ridgeway.

  • In the Matter of the Ontario Heritage Act, R
    THE MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF FORT ERIE PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE OF INTENTION TO DESIGNATE UNDER ONTARIO HERITAGE ACT Ironwood Tree at Ridgeway Battlefield Park TAKE NOTICE that upon recommendation of the Town’s Municipal Heritage Standing Committee, the Municipal Council of the Town of Fort Erie intends to designate the Ironwood Tree at Ridgeway Battlefield Park as a Heritage Tree, under Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter 0.18, as amended as being of cultural heritage value or interest for its design, historical, and contextual value. Description of Property – The Ironwood Tree at Ridgeway Battlefield Park as a Heritage Tree under the Ontario Heritage Act. Under the guidelines a tree can be considered for designation if it meets one of the criteria in a significant way. There are few Ironwood trees of this age, particularly standing out in the open. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest: This old Ironwood Tree is one of the few of its age standing alone in the open on public lands and accessible to the residents of Fort Erie. More importantly, core testing of the tree put its age at Circa 1866 at the time of the Fenian Raids that occurred at Ridgeway Battlefield Park. It stands today as a reminder of the important battle and historical event in Fort Erie. On June 2, 1866 Fort Erie was invaded by the Fenian Army. These Irish Civil War veterans intended to hold Upper Canada “hostage” and use this position to negotiate Ireland’s freedom from Britain. The subsequent Battle of Ridgeway and battle at the Fort Erie dock, while a tactical victory for the Fenians, ended quickly with the intervention of the United States government.
