Before long the authorities were notified by local loyal- ists of what was going on. But, despite repeated warn lngs, Sir Francis Bond Head, the governor, and the mem- bers o fthe executive council took no action until the very eve of the outbreak. Almost 4,000 stand of arms lay in the City Hall at Toronto, and the approaches to th‘: capital were open and unwatched,

lThe way seemed clear, and the rebels had a fair chance of succeeding in their attempt to capture the governor and the leading members of the executive, arm their friends in town from the civic store, and take control ofi the govern- ment of the province. Independence or a. new constitution might follow.

The large buttons are o fbrass or pewter. the stove pipe pattern, with narrow flat or slightly rolling brims, a few are of a type midway between the plug and the Derby, while others are battered out of shape by wea- ther and long usage- One man wears a coon-skin cap and leather hunting jacket and leggings. Some have top boots with tight-fitting breechca, others wear loose corduroy frousrs with straps under their shoes. They are cleun~ shsven for the most part, some have a short aide whisker; their hair l: left full enough to curl over the ears and at the back of the neck.
