OTTAWA PRINTED FOR '^HE ROYAL SOOIETY OB' CANADA, 1909 — Section II., 1908. [123] Trans. R. S. C. IV. History of the Queen's Rangers. By James Hannay, D.C.L. (Read May 26, 1908.) I. Of the forty or more battalions of Loyalists which enlisted in the service of the Crown during the Eevolutionary war, none has been so widely celebrated as the Queen's Eangers. This, no doubt, is partly due to the fact that they found a historian in Lieut.-Col. Simcoe, their com- manding officer, who wrote a book to chronicle their achievements; yet after making all allowance for this advantage, it must be admitted, with- out detriment to the other Loyalist corps, that the Queen's Eangers ex- ceeded them all in length and variety of service. What the famous Light Division was in Wellington's Peninsular Campaigns. the Queen's Eangers became to the British army in America ; whenever there was an enterprise that demanded celerity and daring, the Queen's Eangers were selected for the service, if they happened to be at all near the place where it was to be performed. Their six years of active service in the war made them veterans, and their peculiar organization enabled them to ac- complish feats which would have been quite beyond the power of an ordinary battalion of the line.

  • RBC BHM ESSAY Davis Legree Brooklin High School, Brooklin, ON
    RBC BHM ESSAY Davis Legree Brooklin High School, Brooklin, ON $500 Winner Today’s young people can take away an incredible amount, from the lives and experiences of black Canadians, over the past 150 years. However, the most prominent concept that one could attain from said experiences, would be the mantra of never giving up, regardless of what obstacles or challenges lay ahead. There are countless of instances where a black Canadian was put up against a challenge so significant, so overwhelming, but many never gave in, and ended up successful. Many Canadians, and young people, are familiar with the lives of black Canadian heroes like Harriet Tubman, and Mary Ann Shad, but one must also take a look at the unheralded black Canadians, who’s stories, although less well-known, are just as significant. Take Colchester, Ontario’s Elijah McCoy, for example. McCoy was 14 when he went to Scotland to work as an mechanical engineering apprentice, and he returned as a certified mechanical engineer. However, despite McCoy’s large amounts of training, and impressive qualifications, he was unable to obtain a job because of a policy that did not allow African-Canadians to work skilled jobs. After taking a job as a fireman, and oiler at a railroad, McCoy began to invent objects that would not only differ from current train travel, but vastly improve it. McCoy was, posthumously, rewarded for his success in 2001, when he was inducted into the Inventors Hall of Fame. McCoy perfectly embodies the spirit of black Canadians over the past one and a half centuries, that even when an entire nation says that you are not fit to do something, that does not mean you should give up and stop trying, because if Elijah McCoy had done the aforementioned, then the world would have lost one it’s greatest inventors of all time, because he was black.

Rev. John Moorhead, its founding pastor, John Little, its benefactor, as well as congregants Peter and Henry Pelham were members of the Charitable Irish Society, as was the society’s first president, William Hall. 95 “With Good Will Doing Service”: The Charitable Irish Society of Boston (1737–1857)1 CATHERINE B. SHANNON Abstract: The Charitable Irish Society of Boston grew from a small group helping Irish immigrants gain a footing in colonial Boston to a larger, more significant presence in the city’s social and political life. As it grew, the society found itself enmeshed in Boston’s often severe sectarian conflicts, forcing the society to transform from a Protestant organization toward a more broadly inclusive group, taking Irish Catholics into its membership.
