GUEKTIN, PRINTERS, MONTREAL To HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS ALBERT EDWARD, PRINCE OF WALES who, by graciously allowing the corps to bear his honoured name, by the kindly interest he has always evinced in its welfare, has contrib uted so largely to its esprit de corps and loyal devotion to duty, the following pages are gratefully inscribed by the Officers and members of His Royal Highness Regiment of the Active Militia of Canada.

JOHANNA BAILLIE. The history of the Prince of Wales Regiment has more than a mere regimental or local interest. It embraces the story of the development of a great national force which discharges a high and most useful function in the Canadian community the Active Militia a loyal bod}- which has not only protected the altars and hearths of Canada from the foreign invader and the internal disturber, but has left the blood-stained imprint of its gallant deeds stamped in imperishable characters upon the glorious pages of the heroic history of the noblest empire the world has ever known. The work of compiling the accompanying pages has been a source both of pleasure and regret to me of satisfaction because it enabled me to do something, even in a modest way, towards filling the want which unquestionably exists for a connected story of the Canadian Militia of because the did not of a ; regret opportunities presented permit more thorough treatment of this prolific subject. It seems only natural that the history of the oldest existing militia regiment should lead back to the origin of Canada s constitutional force, and I trust that the information given respecting the old military organizations of this country, fragmentary and incomplete though the}- of necessity are, will prove not merely interesting, but even useful. To reveal to the men of a particular corps, or to the corps of any military service as a whole, the honourable traditions to which are is they the heirs, to increase their efficiency and practical military value. As Lord has " Historical Wolseley put it, traditions affect the character of regiments more than might be imagined. Make a man proud of himself and of his corps, and he can be of always depended upon." The records the splendid services of the Canadian Militia as a and the whole, Prince of Wales Regiment in particular, contained in the accompanying the of are pages, despite imperfections arrangement, such as to inspire the military spirit of the gallant regiment in question. In of view the undeniable practical value of that quality, which for want of a better " term we call de it a that esprit corps," appears pity some systematic effort has not been made to trace out the lines of descent from the war-tried military bodies of the war of 1812-15, which some of our and battalions could city county fairly claim, on the established principle that a exists as one and the same regiment corps through numerous phases of reorganization, and even with of absolute periods disorganization intervening. As Captain Otley L. Perry, in his interesting work, and Dates in Her s "Rank, Badges Majesty Army and Navy" (p. 145) says: "Some Regimental numbers (in the regular army) represent a series of regiments, with, in certain cases, considerable intervals between the establishment of a new regiment and the disbandment of its immediate predecessor bearing the same number. A perusal of Cannon s or Trimen s records of regiments shows that this principle has been universally adopted in the Army." The Prince of Wales Regiment makes no claim to continuous existence further back than the establishment of the Rifle Rangers, but in the light of army precedent there appears " " no reason why it should not, having been known as the Montreal Rifle Battalion at the " " time it received its present designation, claim descent from Montreal Rifles of the rebellion. No other rifle companies existed in Montreal during the intervening period, and when the Rifle Rangers were organized several former members of the Rifles of 1837-38 joined the company, including its first captain. Similarly, why should not the regiment, being and " " always having been the First Regiment of the present militia force, claim descent from " the First" Militia Battalion of 1812, with which it could claim personal connection through at least one of its officers, the Adjutant? If a modest and imperfect record of the services of the Canadian Militia and a particular in I it of interest regiment of it, be of interest the service, trust may also prove some general throughout the Dominion and assist to draw the attention of the Canadian public to the value of the militia. Fortunately, since the ugly menaces of the neighbouring, and not always neighbourly, republic a year ago, the militia has come to be treated seriously again, but, in the piping times of peace it is hard to keep vip that public interest in the force necessary to produce the required sinews of war. We are told that Canada is a commercial and a peace able country, as if the mere love of peace by the Canadian people, and the flourishing condition of the commerce of the Dominion constituted a protection against war instead of being an actual temptation to attack us. In the iSth century there was much repugnance to war by our forefathers because they regarded it as fatal to constitutional liberty. Our age has been much occupied with a general progress of humanity, and it has accordingly looked eagerly for signs of the disappearance of war and of an approaching millenium of peace. As we want peace to develop this fair young country of ours it is necessary that we should be prepared to insure it. If threatened, it will avail little to say that we most sincerely love peace, and that the very idea of war shocks us. As the Hon. Dr. Borden, the present popular Minister of Militia and Defence, recently " said : Trouble is much less likely to come to a people who are well prepared to meet it." The record of the services of the militia is the most eloquent plea that could be made for the maintenance of the force on the most efficient basis possible. The lack of time and space have united to prevent the record from being as complete as I to stimulate the of the I would have desired, but such as it is, it will, trust, serve pride members of the Prince of Wales Regiment in their corps, help to encourage the militia as a whole to live up to the splendid traditions of the service, and at a time when a practical manifestation of popular sympathy with the force is desirable, draw public attention to the importance of those services which have made the people of Canada proud of, and grateful to, their citizen soldiery.

ABSTRACT This dissertation traces the constitutive rhetorical strategies of revolutionary Irish nationalists operating transnationally from 1858-1876. Collectively known as the Fenians, they consisted of the Irish Republican Brotherhood in the United Kingdom and the Fenian Brotherhood in North America. Conceptually grounded in the main schools of Burkean constitutive rhetoric, it examines public and private letters, speeches, Constitutions, Convention Proceedings, published propaganda, and newspaper arguments of the Fenian counterpublic. It argues two main points. First, the separate national constraints imposed by England and the United States necessitated discursive and non- discursive rhetorical responses in each locale that made

  • 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.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and . reproduce________ this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon t^ie quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproductic n. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was posiible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film ilong with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was pi rt of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap, continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual co>ntent is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproducti on could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understandini of the dissertation.

  • Nuacht Feb. 13.Indd
    Community Newsletter of St. Patrick’s Society of MontrealNUACHT Guest Speaker no stranger to the Society By Andrea Stanford ere it is, folks: The INSIDE SCOOP Photo: Hon Kevin Tierney – this year’s Guest Speaker at the St. Patrick’s Society Annual Siegel Lois luncheon. You know the name; Kevin has been involved with Montreal’s Irish Community for some time. You’ve seen him at Ciné Gael Events, he was the Guest of Honour at the 2008 St. Patrick’s Ball and has been twice featured right here in Nuacht. But beyond the impressive resumé and well-merited accolades, what is Kevin Tierney really like? As Kevin’s former assistant, I’m here to tell you. I worked with Kevin for two years and on three productions, including a little- known fi lm called Bon Cop/Bad Cop.
